IS MADE OF RUSTLESS IRON
Massive Pillar Near Delhi Has Re-
sisted Corrosion During Period
Of 1900 Years.

On the plains of Delhi in India there
stands a massive iron pillar. nearly
sixty feet in length and weighing
about nineteen tons. This ancient
column is literally monument to the
Anticipated" processes and metallur
gists that produced It, for it has re-
sisted the attack Of the elements dur
ing period of about $500 years in
which fully million times its bulk OF
iron or steel has crumbled into useless
dust. No one would suggest that civil
lied man return to the primitive and
laborious methods by which the iron
CT this column was made so long ago.
and besides there are not men enough
living today to supply our present de-
mands even if all of them should en-
gage in this type of manufacture. But
granting that the world would pay for
a limited amount of iron as passive"
as this old Kutub pillarfi it is very
doubtful whether modern iron-workers
know how to make it. Probably this
specimen of unusual iron was the re-
suit of accident rather than design.
as far as its resisting qualities are
concerned. and it stands today the sur
vival of the fittest. not so much be-
cause it was intended to be. as be-
cause it proved to be, the most last
ing. For 1t Is not likely that proc
ess known to give iron of this kind
would ever have been used so seldom,
since the Importance of a rust-resist-
ing iron and steel was as much appre-
ciated in those days as now. No
doubt all the older processes made
iron and steel which rusted less-yes,
and some of it very much less-than
what is usually produced today. but
there is a great difference between
this mere excellence and a resist
ance to corrosion during thirty cen
turtles such as this column shows

ONE Way OF SAVING
A BAbY-FREE TO TRY

for the use of children. 1t is mild,
gentle and non-griping. The remedy
is absolutely pure and is guaranteed
in every particular. Mrs. Toomey of
Emingsville, Pa, and Mrs. Fred

their children anything else. These
are only few among thousands of
women.
You can buy a fifty cent or one
dollar bottle of any nearby druggist,

SAYS PEOPLE DO
 NOT CARE FOR PIE

Chicago, July 12.-A representative of a pie making concern here succeeded in stopping proposed increase in his com pany's taxes today when he appeared be- fore the board of review and pleaded that pie is losing it's hold on the American peoples palates.
 There has been no expansion in the pie making business last year." he told the tax reviewers. "It has decreased in popularity with the masses. Its place is being taken by fruit. ice cream and salad as luncheon dessert. Despite the poor outlook for business expansion we have voluntarily increased our tax schedule si60 and we think that the assessment should be allowed to stand as it is"
 The reviewers Were convinced.
