II Is said that the Germans have
recently succeeded in making arti-

Of the genuine article in many re-
spects. Pure cellulose and zinc chic

which is mixed with coarse rock
salt. A quantity Of this is then placed
In a mold and then pierced with
needles penetrating into the interior
In all directions. The salt Is then re-
moved by prolonged washing. and
the result has the appearance and
qualities OF sponge. absorbing water
In the same manner and drying when
its interior is freed OF the water. II
may also be used for altering pur-
