COLO AND SILVER

The process of assaying gold and
silver is identical. The met al is
first put through highly heated
furnace and melted, the sample
for assay being dipped out while
the metal is in a liquid state.
Next the sample is thrown into a
vessel of cold water. when granula-
ton ensues. Taken from the cold
bath, it is toiled in sulphuric acid,
the silver dissolving. while the
gold is precipitated to the bottom
where It 10 caught in proper
receptacles.
The acid is now drawn off and
the metal placed in another vessel
laid with sheet lead. the bottom
being plates of copper. Chemical
action now sets in. the acid. copper
and lead being in ferment.
While the gold is being precipi-
tated the silver, if there be any in
the sample test, is beiEg deposited
in thin metallic sheets on what
was before the fermentation set in
were the copper plates. but which
have now been transformed into
blue vitriol or sulphate Of copper.
After the metals have all been
deposited they are gathered up
anu with the impurities still re-
maining pressed into cakes by a
hydraulic machine which has a
pressure Of 200 tons. Again it is
melted (the gold and ailver each
in separate watts. Of coprse). the
pure metal being again deposi ted
and the impuriti. 8, sided by
chemical action. left floating on
the top. The next and last pro-
cess runs the metal into ingots

HOW LONG DOES A
DOLLAR BILL LAST?

Some one once started cru
SADIE against tainted money.
Reference was had to the moral
quality of the way in which it was
acquired. But this did not seem
to take hold very we'll.
The moral significance was lost,
bit the crusade and the phrase
itself were transferred to the
physical condition OF actual cur
rency. II then made a big hit.
The possession of new. clean bills
became a fad for those who were
able to possess them at all.
Morals,it appeared, might be over.
ooked hut the requirements of
sanitation and aesthetics never.
Uncle Sam, willing to comply
with the latter demands, an.
nounced that all bills torn. ragged,
germ-laden and grime-aovered
would be redeemed whenever
requested and replaced with fresh,
taint-free ones.
So many persons applied to get
in on the deal of new money for
old that the congressional ap.
preparations for currency r"demp.
tion have been exceeded, and Lee
McClung, treasurer Of the United
States. and J. E Ralph. director
of the bureau of print ng and
