Sorenson, Hansen and Husedale

unusually valuable claim.

ERECTING A CONCRETE WALL
Economy Is Main Advantage Urged by
lnventor-Time, Labor and Money
Saved by the System.

An ingenious method of concrete
construction Is to set the forms for
the walls of house almost level, and
after pouring the concrete and allow
ing it to harden to tilt the wall on
edge. Economy is the main advantage
OF this system; saving Of time, labor
and money, so the inventor claims, and
the method has been used with success
in large buildings erected by the
United States government and large
corporations. Walls of 120 feet in
length have been raised in one piece,
but it is not adapted to structures OF
great height.
The device consists of a series OF
jackscrews supporting trussed frame,
upon which the form for the wall is
built. The frame sets at very slight
angle, and the workmen can move
about 1t with ease, doing their work
faster than when mailing upright forms
In place. One side of the form is not
needed at all, as the upper surface OF
the concrete is smoothed out, or fin.
ished in various ways; this results In
a saving Of almost half the lumber re.
quired for upright forms.
After the concrete has hardened, the
operation Of fitting the wall upright
takes place; this is accomplished by
means Of small engine which oper.
ates all the jackscrews simultaneously,
so that the great mass of the wall is
raised evenly and set upon its founda-
ton. OF course 1t is essential to use
great care in securing perfect align
ment of the jackscrews and the frames.
AS each wall is set in place 1t is braced
and the corners where two walls meet
are Joined by concrete, so that the fin.
ished structure is practically a mon.
olith. Usually the reinforcing rods are
allowed to project at the corners,
Strengthening the joint together.

MILK IVORY AS SUBSTITUTE
Can Hardly Be Distinguished
From the Real Article.

Skim milk is used for the keyboards
OF pianos, and although in appearance
this hardened substance is scarcely
distinguishable from ivory, It is con.
siderably more durable and less ex.
pensive. A British factory OF syrolit,
at the skim.milk ivory is called, exists
at Stroud. where 1t was established
about year ago, and hundreds OF gal
Ions OF separated milk are daily trans.
formed into one OF the most useful ma.
terials that have been invented in re.
cent times.
In view OF the fact that ivory is be.
coming scarcer every day. the demand
for skim.mllk ivory for the purposes
OF making plano keys is enormous.
The product is sent to every part of
the world, II is used for umbrella
handles, buttons, photograph frames
and various appliances, and is espe-
cially appreciated by comb manufac.
turers, as II can be made to look like
horn, is considerably less expensive,
and Is, OF course. non.lnflammable.
The milk is not mixed with any
other substance. but after being puri.
ned II is compressed 30 that all the
moisture Is extracted and the sub.
stance becomes hard and dry.

HIS TALE OF TROUBLE
YOUNG MAN LOUD IN DEMAND
OF NEEDED CHANGES.
Hard as II Is Sometimes to Get Into

Harder to Get Out
of IL,

II think" said this young man, with
great emphasis on the personal pro-
noun, that there ought to be on the
inner side Of the exit door of every

to be on every exit door from

Last night I called on young
lady OF my acquaintance who lives In
a fiat and / passed a very pleasant
evening, But when tried to go
away / got into trouble. The parlor
In this fat Is at the front end of
hall that, I should think, speaking
moderately, was 60 feet long. On one
side Of this long hall there is solid
wall, but on the other side there are
numerous doors, opening, suppose,
into sleeping rooms. There Is one
such door directly opposite the door
by which you enter this fat from the
outer hall. 1t was by confusing that
last bedroom door with the exit door
which 1t faces that | got lost
There was time when folks used
to escort their guests to the door and
say good-by or goodnight to them
there, but it seems that the present
style is to say goodnight in the parlor
and let the guest find his way out,
and that's what happened to me last
night.
When l struck the parlor end OF
that long hall thought / could find
my way all right. There was the long
hall, with the wall on one side and
that string OF doors on the other, all
just as 1t was when / came In, and It
looked easy. But when got down to
the far end of It I'm blessed II could
remember which side of 1t came in
at, and instead of taking the door to
my right, as l should have done, I
opened the left hand door. and
Hey, there! What's bitin' you?
Get out Of here! heard somebody
saying.
"Of course It was the young lady's
kid brother He had been in the
parlor a little while earlier In the
evening and then disappeared, and
knew now that he must have gone to
bed and that had broken into his
room trying to find my way out.
"'All right youngster.' says to
him as gayly as could, but ! shut
his door as quickly as possible and
made for the door opposite and got
out into the hall and pressed the ele-
vator button for an emergency call
and ! didn't come to fully until I had
got out OF the house into the open air.
There ought to be a plainly let.
