PENNIES ARE PURE COPPER
Utilization of Electricity Has Materi-
ally Reduced Cost of Re-
filming Metal.

A penny is made from almost
chemically pure copper, which is OBJ
tanned by the new electric methods.
Formerly the refining of copper was
an expensive process, but with the
utilization of electricity the expense
has been materially decreased. The
copper is placed at one end Of a
tank which is filled with water. This
is called the anode, or positive pole.
The action of a powerful electric
current releases the copper, carries
it through the water and deposits it
on the negative or cathode pole. The
result is what is known as Electric
ity" or Cathode copper. 1t is what
pennies are made of. While the
"electrolitic" is the purest known
copper, the "lake" copper brings
a slightly higher price in the mar
ket. This is because there is a
small. amount of silver in all the
copper from the Lake Superior re-
gions. 1t is so small that it cannot
be separated at a profit. Silver,
however, is a better conductor of
electricity than copper, and there
fore, for commercial purposes, the
flake" copper is in such demand that
it brings a better price.

WHERE HARD LUCK PREVAILS
eatherer Of Statistics Discovers In
London 131 Men Who Lost e5
Note In One Day.

The dear old gent was evidently a
gatherer of statistics, and with a
beaming smile was gazing down the
street. Suddenly he stepped up to a
gentleman who was waiting for .
train, and, tapping him lightly on
the shoulder said: Excuse me, but
did you drop a IS note?" at the
same time holding out in his hand
the article mentioned.
The gentleman questioned gazed
a moment at the note, assumed an
anxious look, made a hasty search
Of his pockets, and said: "Why, so 1
did, and l hadn't missed it," holding
out an eager hand. The elderly hunt
err of statistics slowly drew forth his
notebook and said, 81 thought So"
He then took the name and address
Of the loser, and, putting the note
in his pocket, turned away.
"Well," said the other, edo you
want it all as a reward?"
ooh, I did not find one" re-
turned the benevolent one, with an
other beam, ''but it struck me that
in big place like London there
must be a quantity of money lost,
and upon inquiry found that you
are the one hundred and thirty-frst
man who has lost a 95 note this
morning. Ideas.

cir Of cold displeasure, "that you
are rather sentimental for mar

She laughed lightly. swell,
Hugh, why not? But it is time to
dress. We dine at Mrs. Gordon's
tonight, you know"
"Who will be there?"
'"The Langdons, Maude Wilbur,
Arthur Beauchamp and some 9TH
ers. It is given for a girl from Los
Angeles who is visiting the Cor
dons."
The last arrival at the dinner was
stalwart, well-set-up man, whom
the hostess finally brought to Vivian
as she stood talking to the guest of
honor-Maude Nelson.
"Harry," said Mrs. Gordon sweet
ly, 81 want you particularly to
know Mrs. Avery. Mr.. Walters,
Vivian"
Vivian blushed with pleasure.
"Ohp she cried excitedly. 81 am
sure-yes, you are the Harry Wal
tiers who lived across the street from
us in Fostoria."
"And you are Vivian Allen. You
haven't changed in the least"

to go in to dinner togetherl" ex-
claimed Mrs. Gordon.

band, who stood near by with an in
scrutable expression on his face,
"come here. 1 want you to meet
Mr.. Walters. Such coincidence
l was telling you about him this
afternoon"
Hugh coldly acknowledged the in
PRODUCTION.
II should hardly know you from
the picture of you that my wife
treasures" he remarked.
Vivian felt Mrs. Gordon's sur
prise, as well as that of Miss Nelson.
She did not dare look at Harry Wal
ters until she heard him say:
ooh, did you keep that photo
graph all this time? 1 hope 1 have
changed in appearance since that
time."
| She was very grateful to him, and
turning to look at him, an idea came
to her which made her eyes dance.
| Her husband, with Miss Nelson, sat
Opposite her a nd her "schoolboy
sweetheart at dinner. Vivian
racked her brain for "reminiscences.
Finding none (for of all the boys
who attended the academy when she
did, she had known him the least) 4,
she originated several. To her de-
| light and amusement, he not only re-
sponded eagerly, but followed up her
lead with much more thrilling MEM
cries.
"You did not answer the letter |
wrote you when you were in Italy"
he said, reproachfully.
| "Indeed, / did," she replied ear
nestly, "but long, long afterward |
learned that the train to Cherbourg
had burned"
"Ohl" he said, his eyes full OF
regret.
| AS he became more attentive and
impressive in manner, and she
caught the jealous glances of her
husband, Vivian's spirits scared,
and she never seemed more beauti-
| full.
Later in the evening, in the con-
servatory, she looked at Harry sud-
denly and laughed.
"What a vivid imagination you
have, Mr.. Waltersp'
at was awfully good of you, Mrs,
Avery, not to give me away. / am
going to confess to you, my 'old
neighbour the object of my fairy

EXTRA TIRES NEEDED
ON TOURING TRIPS

Every person who contemplates tour
ing should pay moro attention to his
tires than any other part Of the CAT,
is the opinion voiced by Manager g.
H. Humphreys Of the Utah Tire & Rub
Der company. More trouble is expe-
rienced through not being prepared
with extra castings and tubes and a
suitable repair outfit than any other
cause, declares Mr.. Humphreys, and it
is all unnecessary. HAn extra casing
and couple Of extra tubes taken along
when making cross country trip do
not cost much, and will save hours
of grief in ease Of trouble. The car
owner will use them up some time,
and it does NOT hurt them to be car
ried along Tt is not money spent un-
necessarily, because sooner or later he
will have TO buy them anyway. Ny
advice to tourists is to keep plenty Of
extras on hand, for they will come in
handy sooner or later

 Members of the Etowah County Medical association will appear at the next meet Ing of the county commissioners to ask that the county purchase or establish a city and county hospital, as is .one in other Alabama cities.
