Uses Of Tungsten.

Tungsten is nsed principally as an
alloy of high speed steel-that is. steel
used in making tools used in metal
turning lathes running at high speed
to which it imparts the property of
holding temper at higher temperature
than carbon steels will, according to
the United States Geological Survey.
The now we'll known ductile tungsten
is used for incandescent lamps. which
are displacing carbon lamps. Re-
Gently greatly improved lamps, in
which the wire is wound in helices and
in which the globes are filled with
nitrogen, have produced a close
approach to white light. These lamps
are furnished in candle powers up to
1900 Ductile tungen is practically
insoluble in all the common acids; its
melting point is higher than thai
of and other metal, it's tensile strength
exceeds that of iron and nickel, it is
paramagnetic, it can be drawn to
smaller sizes than any other metal
(OOOO2 inch in diameter), and its spa
cific gravity is 70 per cent higher than
that of lead.

ished with his silent, Indian-like glide,
his movements as inaudible as those of
a ghost. In about five minutes light
suddenly sprang up in the hut, and
JOe'S voice called us.
AS We entered the door l saw Joe
was pointing to piece of paper which
lay on the rough hewn table.
1.-THE same writing as before. Listen
to this: If you will swear to give us
safe conduct we viii come to talk 1t

said Joe. whats the orders now. Mr..
PlanxT'
PLANK handed Joe the lantern. "Go
and wave the lantern"
From the door of the hut we watched
November as he walked down to the
lake. At the third swing Of the light a
voice hailed him.
"You hear? They were waiting In q
canoe" said PLANK to me.
Then followed the splash of paddles
and the rasp of the frosted rushes as
the canoe took the shore. Joe had re-
turned by this time and hung up the
lantern so that it lit the whole OF the
hut. Then the three Of us stood to-
gether at enc side Of the table.

Caesar Used Elephants In Britain.
Tradition has it that Caesar brought
elephants with him to Britain and
that they contributed to his conquest
of the island. Having unsuccessfully
attempted to cross the Thames. Caesar
built large turret on an elephant and,
loading It with bowmen and singers.
ordered them to pass the stream.

"Have you ever seen Atterson?'
No"
Il thought you might have. He al
ways spends his vacations in the
woods. fishing usually. The last two
years he has fished Red river. This is
what happened. On Saturday l told
him to go down to the strong room to
fetch up a fresh batch of dollar and
five dollar bills. as we were short. 1t
happened that in the same safe there
was a number Of bearer securities. At

nothing Of it. but when it came to
afternoon and he had neither appeared
nor sent any reason for his absence
began to smell rat. l went down to
the strong room and found that over
100000 in notes and bearer securities
were missing.
II communicated at once with the
police. and they started to make in
quiries. The constable at Roberville
replied that a man answering to the
description of Atterson was seen by a
farmer walking along the Stoneham
road and heading north on Sunday
morning early"
At this point q clerk knocked at the
door and. entering. brought in some
letters Harris stiffened as he noticed
the writing on one of them. He cut 1t
open, and when the clerk was gone out
he read aloud:
Dear Harris-I hereby resign my splen-
did and lucrative position in the Grand
Banks Of Canada. 1t is dogs dirty life.
Anyway it is so for a man OF spirit. You

couldn't have posted no letter in Ri

Sunday unless he'd gone there on the

Yes. Atterson's the thief, all right
And if that really was he they saw
Stoneham ways he's had time to get
thirty miles Of bush between us and
him, and he can go right on till he's
on the Labrador. I doubt you'll see

November was audibly sympathetic.
and so was /.
'Then one day this notion came to

"But you did right through-till you

"But you did not recognize me then p
she cried And I'd put on pair of

November explained and added the
story of his dismissal by Plank.
"Well. it's lucky you were there. any

Joe in a queer voice.

And in the end Miss Virginia tri-
umphed. She received her ransom In
full. and 1t is to be doubted If Mr..
PLANK ever had an idea of the trick
played on him. And I'm inclined to
think Mr.. Walter Calvey is still in the
dark. too, as to the identity of his
anonymous friend But two things are
certain-Mrs. Virginia Calvey is hap
