Uses of Uranium.

There is considerable popular inter-
est in uranium in the United States on
account of its connection with radiun.
Very little uranium is mined in this
country, except as it is incidentally
taken out in mining carnotite for
vanadium, according to the United
States geological survey. In 1911 the
uranium mined amounted to about
twenty one and two-tenths tons. A
few hundred pounds of pitchblende
was mined from the German mine, at
Central City. Colo, but this material
was not sold, as it was said TO have
been used in experimental work. The
extraction of radium has been at
tempted in the United States by sew
eral persons and firms. Some OF these
have given up their efforts, but otherS
are still at work. Uranium is EN-
ployed principally for making yellow
glass, for yellow glazes on pottery, ana
in a less degree as a chemical reageht.
Yellow glass made with uranium oxiue
is known as ..opalescent.' Direct llght
shining through it gives yellow coior
and indirect light a greenish yeho"'
Some of the firms which nave at
tempted to use uranium in the manu-
facture of steel have abandoned sueh
experiments, the claim being MADE that
il apparently imparts about the same
properties as tungsten, and Is very
much more expensive.

The Old Question

The shadow of the vine.
The moonlit night was calm and still,
The cool air was like wine.
They sat together, side by side,
His arm around her waist,
And she somehow did not object,
Or say it was misplaced.
The words he whispered in her ear
Her gentle bosom stirred,
For all it was the same old tale
That girls have always heard.
And then she asked with wistful air,
Her foolish brain a-whrl:

IRISH was alone IN the house putting the
baby to sleep. He demanded money,
and ON her replying there was none,

Il know John Gerrish is an apple buy
er and he must have money here, ana
you keep quiet while i search the

room and began to ransack, but IN the
meantime Mrs. Gerrish stepped to the
kitchen, and taking down gun fol-
lowed him into the room and pointed
it at him saying, You get out OF mere
at once or you may need coffin. he
begged her not TO shoot and MADE ms
escape as quickly as possible, she FOL
lowing him to the door with the Weap-
