HIS RAW MATERIAL is AIR

DR. Samuel Eyde, OF Christiania, Nor

Museum Of Natural History yesterday
afternoon with his illustrated lecture on
The Utilization OF Atmospheric Nitrogen
for the Manufacture OF Fertilizers and
Products IN the Explosive Trade"
He told OF his long struggle in develop
ing this new industry In his own country
and attributed his final success oddly
enough, TO the fact that he had employed
young and inexperienced workmen. They
didn't have anything TO unlearn.
DR.. Eyde started his enterprise in July,
1919. with two worlilnen and a horsepower

1900 workmen and utilzes 10000 horse
power. Factories have been erected at
Notodden. Swalgfos. Lenfos and Rjukan.
and the total production Of nitrates
amounts to 10000 tons annually.
The products have been introduced into
this country, and Dr. Eyde said ready

ammonia and nitrate OF SODA, and no
hoped soon to establish a large market
for nitrate OF lime and concentrated nitric
acid.
The methods of manufacture. he de-
ciared are constantly being improved

The Pleasantville press., 1912-12-04
is THIS ONLY A sFAD"7

An investigation of the working
conditions Of 10000 women and girls
of Philadelphia, conducted by the
federal government, discloses the fact
that these women average 1854 a
week in wages.
An analysis of the expenses of
these women and girls shows that
after feeding and housing herself in
the most frugal and humble manner,
the woman who makes this average
wage has left the sum of only 36
cents with which to clothe herself,
buy medicine and meet all incident
ais.
Continuing, the report of the gov
ernment says:
This investigation indicates that
an average wage of $6 per week will
barely cover the actual cost of main
tenance of a very economical, pru-
dent woman, and that any wage un-
der $6 means contribution from some
other source or actual privation for
the woman worker.
But the report then shows that
while the average wage for women in
this City of Brotherly Love and seven
hundred churches is 1864 week, the
average wage for AZ per cent of the
number is only SAT- a week-the wa
ges of thousands running as low as
81 and 81 week.
1t is of these thousands that the
government report speaks when it
says they must suffer privation or
contributions from some other
source"
In commenting upon the "other
source" the government report says:
1t is wholly Ineligible and quite
pardonable that the majority of these
girls, whose earnings were made
quate, should have concealed their
methods of making up the deficit.
1t is but the impulse of the self-re-
specting to "put the best foot for
ward"
Yet when an appropriation of $4,000
is asked from the city to enable the
vice commission to investigate in de-
tail these "other sources" of income
that girls and women of Philadelphia
must have unless they starve or go
naked, it is denounced as "fad," and
the committee having the appropria-
ton in charge recommend it be not
allowed, for the police can attend to
the vice question.
If by some turn of the wheel of
fortune the men on this committee of
select council should be reduced to
poverty and their daughters, wives
and sisters should be forced to enter
the ranks of wage earners, would it
appeal to them as "fad' to have it
understood why women are not paid
enough to enable them to live in de-
cencv?
Would they then dismiss the sub
ject of investigating the relation be-
tween low wages and the sale of vir-
tue as being one that should be turn
ed over, to the police philadelphia

TO IMPROVE THE FACE.

The deep wrinkles that come in the
forehead and about the eyes and
mouth are generally the result of
screwing the face up into what ! call
grimaces. Some women have the
habit of scowling, others squirting up
the eyes, others of pursuing the lips.
Examine yourself and see if you keep
calm and tranquil countenance when
reading or sewing or in repose. An
other bad habit is comforting the face
when speaking and using altogether
too much force in expressing ones
self. A turpid spirit writes it's pres
ence upon the face in wrinkles, which
no amount of cosmetics will remove.
The wrinkles in the forehead are often
made by not having sufficient protec-
tion for the eyes when out of doors.
One involuntarily frowns to bring
the eyebrows forward to keep the
glare of light from the eyes, These
wrinkles can be smoothed out with
the fingers, stretching the skin. Some
times they are removed by the use of
adhesive plaster placed over the wrin-
kles; the skin should be stretched
first. The deep wrinkles at the cor
ners of the eyes can be smoothed and
massaged out. The wrinkles and
folds which come at the corners of
the mouth can be treated by rubbing
them out with the thumb and forefin-
ger The forefnger is placed inside
the mouth and the thumb on the
cheek. In this manner the folds and
wrinkles can be very easily and sat
