THE MAKING OF TlnFoIL.

Tinfoil, which is extensively used
for wrapping tbbacco, certain food
products and many articles of com.
merce, is composite structure of
lead with thin coating of tin on
each side First a tin pipe is made of
a thickness proportionate to its diam
eter. This pipe is then filled with
molten lead and flatened out by roll
ing or beating to the extreme thin
ness required. The tin coating
spreads simultaneously with the
spreading of the lead core, and
through the cohesion of the lead and
tin particle maintains thin, even
coating of tin on each side Of the
lead center even though it may be
reduced to a thickness of less than
col inch.-The American Inventor.

HARDENING TWisT DRILLS.

The English Mechanic reports a
simple method of hardening ordinary
twist drills. so that they will cut into
tempered steel or very hard rock. Sui
phuric acid is placed into flat-bot-
toned vessel to about the depth that
the extra hardening is desired. as for
instance, one-eighth inch. Should the
drill break off, reharden in acid that
is Of less depth. Above the hardened
end the metal remains soft The OBJ
ject of placing only a fixed depth of
acid in flat pan is to have the pan
bottom limit the extent. Of the hard
ening.

hoped that all the rest of the ties

the chances are quite strong that
they will. on account of the fact that
the rounds follow each other weekly,
and if any but the preliminary ties
are played abroad the team of the
winning country would have to I'm.

undoubtedly put them entirely off

ing Chicago. Philadelphia, Boston and
Brooklyn. No international matches

that the Forthcoming matches this

little LOST SISTER"

Beaming with heartless throbs,
wholesome pathos and lingering humor
Little Lost Sister," a stirring play
dramatized from the book which Vir-
ginia Brooks made almost as famous
as herself, should be seen by every
man, woman and child in the country.
Little Lost Sister, is at the Opera
House today matinee and night.
Virginia Brooks has sought to tell
in beautiful story the workings Of u
great system which ruins the young
generation. In discussing the play the
other day she said: Il have sought to
teach a moral lesson; believe there
is no better way to reach the populace
than through the medium of the drama.
I hope that Little Lest Sister opens
the eyes of those who have either heed
lessly or wantonly ignord the vice sit
uation."

PRESIDENT nash
OF BUICK MOTOR co.
VISITS AMERICUS
On a Trip to "ThG Land OF
Sunshine and Flowers"

Mr.. Charles w Nash, president of
the General Motors company, and gen.
eral manager of the Buick Motor com
Pany was in Americas today in COM
pany, was in Americas Tuesday in COM
manager of the Atlanta branch, ac-
cOmpanied by Mrs. Nash, and Mrs Nc
Cutcheon, making the trip from At
lanta to Tampa, F7a., in Buick Mod
Ell B55, six-cylinder, which has been
commented on by the newspaper fra
ternity throughout the entire United
States, on account of the Phenomenal
record which this particular car has
made on economical fuel consumption,
making under official test POI miles on
gallon of gasoline, At the wheel OF
this new six-cylinder was Mr.. H. L.
Bowden district salesman for Georgia.
who will alternate with Mr.. McCut-
cheon in the pleasure of driving the
car to the Land of Sunshine and
Flowers"
The story of the phenomenal growth
OF the automobile industry and its
wonderful evolution, as it were, is
known today by everyone, but yet few
of these stop to give thought to the
men who have made the industry grow
by leaps and bounds, and who stand
pre-eminently at the head of these
great and ever-growing companies.
The Buick Motor company during its
ten years of continuous manufacturing
and marketing of this world-famous,
car, has grown in output annually
from less than 100 cars in 1903 to up
wards of 10000 motor cars and trucks
during the 1884 season.
There is no other figure in motordoIn
today that stands out so conspicuous1y
as Charles w. Nash; one who has been
such a factor in this marvellous growth,
) nor one who has built upon such a
stable foundation. Mr.. Nash has been
associated with the industry from the
days of its swaddling clothes and in
foreseeing the future as it is today,
now heads a company whose re
sources mount into the millions, that
are prosperous and whose facilities
, make it possible to market a superior
line of cars at, what are commonly
termed, popular prices.
To study conditions south at first
hands, to meet some of the Buick
company's progressive southern agents
and to make long promised visit to
Florida are the reasons for Mr.. Nash s
trip. He is a man OF the democratic
type, approachatle and whose success
is due in large part to his genial per
, sonality.
A brief visit was made to the com
pany's Americas dealers, H. R. & ]. E.
johnson, and Mr.. Nash expressed him
self as being very agreeably surprised
at the thrifty and progressive business
being done in this locality, due large
ly to the energy and push of the local
dealers. Aside from business, Mr..
Nash was very much impressed by
the beauty and progress of Americas,
indicating the wonderful development
throughout this section of the state,
which evidences that at no distant date
commercial interests will have doubled
and trebled, leaving in his mind an
impression mat the manufacturer must
increase his faculties for taking care
of the vast growing demand for the
ever-populsr car. advt
