Lubricant For Aluminium.

Many machinsts. especially those
employed in the motor. engineering in
dusry. are frequently called upon to
work in aluminium. TO satisfactorily
do this work various lubricants have
been tried. which. however. owing to
their volatility. are Of little use. A
suitable lubricant is tallow or t" COZ

not dow as freely as the volatile oils

!: d Disosrnsd.
It, came to DO svdent about the mid
die of the last century that, IN order
to explain certain facts connected with
the relative weights Of gases, matter
must not merely consist Of atoms, but
that these atoms must have tho power
Of uniting in small groups. In form.
ing q compound, indeed, this must b
so. For instance. carbonic acid gar
must consist Of one atom Of carbon,
which, along with two atoms Of oxy-
gen. forms small group OF three
atoms.
The novelty Of the conception was
in the notion that oxygen itself. in the
state Of gas. as it exists. for example,
in the air, consists of small groups OF
atoms: in this case, two. To such small
groups Of atoms was given the name
molecules. A molecule ID that portion
of a substance which can exist In the
free state, as oxygen does in air. An
atom generally exists in. combination.
but atoms may and sometimes do ex-
list separately. in which case they also
are termed molecules.
Now. can molecules be seen? Is their
existence a mere assumption? The IN.
swer, to that question Is. No, they can.
not be seen. but artificial molecules
can be made which correspond 80
closely in their behavior to real mole.
cules that the existence Of real mole
eules is practically certain. Moreover.
although no one has ever seen mole
Guile, still the track of q molecule NOV
ing through space has been seen. and.
just as Robinson Crusoe was right In
1nferring the existence Of man Friday
from his footstep imprinted in the
sand. 80 the real existence of a mole.
cule may Just O. certainly be inferred
from the track it ,leaves.-Sir william

SUMMARY OF THE SITUATION
Their Results, as an Expert
Understands Them.

The German line holds fast to Its
intrenchments, following the Aisne
river from ten miles west of Scissors
to the mouth Of the Suippe and then
curving southwark to Montfaucon,
northwest of Verdun. All along the
lines the allies are making assaults.

reports whether they are pushed home
with the idea of breaking down the
German resistance or whether they
are made merely to hold the Germans
in position while the turning move.

Now is the time when the arrival
of a new British army might turn the
tide of battle for the allies. The 1885,.

in the battle line, apparently in two
separate bodies, one southeast of Sois.

steady flow of re-enforcements was re-
quired, he said.
There were already in France, the
secretary Of war said, rather more
than six divisions of British troops
and two divisions of cavalry, which
were being maintained at their full
strength.
Further regular divisions and addi-
tional cavalry were being organized
from units drawn from over seas gar
risons, which were now being occupied
by territorials and volunteers. A di-
vision of territorials already had left
for Egypt, brigade had gone to
Malta, and garrison force to Gibral-
tar.
PrussIans Claim Victory.
Austrian and German armies aggre-
eating 100000 men have been over
whelmingly defeated by Russians in
the final assaults of a 17-day battle
in Poland and Galicia. Resides infict-
ing enormous casualties on their COM
bined enemies the Russians trapped,
surrounded and captured 10000 pris-
oners, including about eight hundred
officers.
At the same time the Russians are
reported to have driven back the Ger
mans in East Prussia with great
loss.
Emperor William, though hurrying
re-enforcements to his lines in East
Prussia, is said to have notified Aus
tria that he could send no more help
to its forces. In fact, his position in
France is regarded so perilous that
he is declared to be withdrawing
troops from East Prussia to REINFORCE
his armies operating against the
French and British.
