CHEAPER TUNGSTEN LAMPS.

A recent issue of the Scientific
American announces that the manu-
facturers of tungsten incandescent
lamps have decided to reduce the
price of lamps after July lst. Sew
eral of the large Edison companies
are anxious to place tungsten lamps
on the free renewal basis. 1t is con-
sidered propable that the opportunity
to do ~ will be afforded by the re-
duction in the price of the lamps.
This will place the tungsten lamps on
the same basis as the carbon tilament
lamp, with which it is now a serious
competitor.

The Kansas City Court of Appeals
says that wife. is not bound to fol.
low her husband wherever he goes
The ruling was in the case of James
Collrt, who sued his wife for divorr,
because she declined t. 60 with him
to a farm. The Vernon county court
refused the decree and the Court OF
Appeals sustained this ruling.
SHE was not bound to follow him
and if he choose to 60 and live alon,
in pace, her act does not constitute
lrScrtion, " said the decision.

Output Of Quartz Increases
Nearly 100000 Tons Produced
In United States i'm 1912.

One of the lesser industries that is
nevertheless of considerable import
ance is the quarrying and manufact-
uring of quartz, which is used for
many purposes. Its principal uses,
according the United States Geologi
cal Survey, are in the manufacture
of pottery, paints, securing soap and
as Il wood filler.
In pottery the use of quartz dimin-
ishes the shrinkage in the body OF
the ware; it is also used in many
glazes. Quartz for usr in pottery
should contain lees than O.5 per cent
uf iron bearing minerals. Consider
able quantities of ground quartz are
used in the manufacture of paint, ns
much as one-third of the total pig
mcnt used in some paints consisting
of this material. Crystalline quartz
is superior to silica sand for this pur-
pose because of the angularity of the
grains, which makes them adhere
more firmly to the painted surface
for rcpainting. The same property
renders ground crystalline quartz >n-
prrior to silica sand in the nanufact-
IRE of wood filters. For soaps and
polishing powders quartz is preferred
to silica sand ON account of its white
ness and angularity. Quartz crushed
and graded to various sizes is used in
the manufactures of sand paper and
sand belts, as a securing agent, for
frosting' glass with sand-hlast APP
paratuS, etc. Blocks Of massive quartz
and quartzitr are used in the chrmi-
cal industry as a filler for acid towers
and as a hux in copper smelling
Ground quartz is also used in filters
and in tooth powders and by dentists
as detergent.
Crystalline quartz and also sand
have been used in the manufacture
Of silicon and of alloys of silicon with
iron, copper, and other metals in the
electric furnace. Quartz may be fused
in the electric furnace to make chem
ical apparatus, such as tubes, cruel
bes, and dishes. The principal OBJ
lection to the use of these wares is
that the rougl,ncss of their surfaces
makes it difficult to wash thoroughly
all material from the apparatus.
Tennessee was the largest producer
OF quartz in 1912 but ranked third in
value of product. Maryland was
second in output and first in value,
with a total production of Ii, l25
short tons, valued at SG2, ,l5l.

Fcldspar may be obtained free on APP

logical Survey, Washington, ID. G.

NEW TARIFF BILL GOOD AS LAW


Revision of the Payne Aldrich tar
iff act of 1909 is now "A fact. The
Underwood bill is just rs much law
as it ever will be, aside from the fact
that date for it to become effective
on has not been fixed.
This statement is made in the light
of the Senate's action, in the light OF
the failure of the wool and beet SUI
gar interests to control a single vote
in opposition to the Administration
and in the light of statements from
Republican leaders in which they give
up the fight, even for delay.
This means, of course, that the
President has triumphcd within his
party just AZ it has been predicted by
his friends from the beginning that
he would.

In remembrance of Harvey H Hetterly,
who died Dec. l3. 1912.
Weeping may endure for night, but
JOY cometh in the morning. Psalm 3O.5.
Weeping may endure throughout
The long and dreary night,
But on the resurrection morn
All gloom will take to flight.
The one we loved so we'll is gone.
His gentle voice is stilled,
The vacant chair in home and church,
Our hearts with grief has filled.
But Praise the Lord for saving grace, "
And for His message clear;
Well meet around the Great White
Throne
If we are faithful here.
Our God shall wipe away all tears
Relieve our every care
'In Heaven above, where all is love,
There'll be no sorrow there"
