The Amaxons were tabled tribes or

in ambuscades. The women formed .

shameful servitude. They were said
to have been conquered BY Theseus,
about 1921 B. G. According to Homer.

FEATS OF CHEMISTRY.
OPPORTUNITIES FOR ACHIEVING
FAME OR FORTUNE OR SoTH.
Many Patents for Making Artificial
Rubber Have Been Issued, but
Price Still Remains the
Same,

1t was announced few weeks aGo
that distinguished chemist of the
Imperial Technical School Of Moscow
had solved the problem Of making ar.
tificial rubber, and that he could sell
the new product at about Is I'd q
pound, according to Tit-Bits.
Yet. in spite Of this widely dissent.
dated piece Of news, the price Of rub.
Der remains pretty much the same.
The reason may be found by examin.
Ing the patent Office records. During
the last ten or twelve years nearly 300
patents for artificial rubber have been
taken out.
Substitutes have been made from
petroleum, from coal tar, turpentine
peat, from nitrated linseed oil. and BY
reating cereals with phyalin.
The latter invention made consid.
cradle sensation so long ago as 1906;
yet, Judging by the constantly increas.
Ing demand for the natural product. II
has had little effect upon the real rub.
Der market.
The chemist, working in his labora,
tory can take any substance and
analyze it-that is, break it up into
Its original constituents and tell you
what they are, and how much Of each
element the substance in question 10
composed Of.
But when It comes to building up
the original substance out Of its prime
constituents. there he is 1T sea. BY
dint Of long and patient experiments,
or perhaps by pure chance. he may
succeed in reproducing some few nat.
ursl products, but that 10 as far %
he can 90.
Indigo dye took many years to syn
thesize. A German chemist accom-.
plished It at last, but the curious dis.
covery was made that, II blended with
the natural product made from the in.
diso plant. the color produced was
both more durable and brighter than
that made by either dye alone. So
artificial indigo has not yet ruined the
