invention of Scientists for PurI-
fication of Water.
Ia Claimed to Have Much the Same
Effect as That Produced by tho
Rays Of the Sun-ln Use
in Europe.

1t has long been known that water
allowed to flow over a bed of sand, a
natural filter, and subjected to the
suns rays, soon becomes free from
harmful bacteria. The powerful ster'
ilizing effect of the suns rays which
are so effective in destroying germs
has been attributed to the ultra-vio-
let part of the light. The problem
for scientists has been to devise some
way of employing the sterilizing ef-
fects of these rays in an effective
manner for human use.
French and German scientists set
about the task and have produced a
new steri.izer, in which. in order that
the maximum amount Of ultraviolet
rays can penetrate the rock crystal,
which is the only solid that will admit
such penetration. The light given out
is vastly richer in ultraviolet rays, in
proportion to visible rays than in sun
light.
The s-erilizing apparatus was test
ed at Marseilles and Rouen, where
typhoid has become an epidemic, and
the results obtained were highly sat-
isfactory. The French carried one of
the steriliZers into Morocco and the
freedom of the troops from ravages
Of typhoid, which ragged among the
Moors, was attributed by the army
surgeons largely to the use of the
ray-sterilized water Reports of tests
similar success for the system, and
the United States army surgeons in
the Philippines declare that the rays
destroyed the. harmful bacilli in the
water there and also the ameba, which
abound in practically all tropical wa
tiers.
The rays, it is said, may also be
used for purifying the waters of pub
lie baths and their use will be espe-
cially valuable in keeping the water
of swimming pools pure and free from
lurking danger Of germs. The cost
OF the apparatus is comparatively low
an outfit of $50 gallons per hour
capacity costing in the neighborhood
of 5000. Cost of operation is slight
where electric current is available,
and the operation of the machine does
not require high degree Of skill.
Further use for the invention will
be found in purifying water for the
manufacture of artificial ice, in bot
thing works and other industries, in
which the purity of water used should
be an important consideration. Ex-
periments are now being made to find
a means for adopting the rays to the
sterilization of milk and it is thought
that such an apparatus making use of
the ultraviolet principle will ultimate
ly be evolved.

HUMAN BODY IS HIS ASSET
Him for $40 Loan In Des
Moines, Iowa.

Des Moines, Ia.-Mose Levich, a
bankrupt pawnbroker here, who holds
bill of sale for the body of Miss Dot
tie Morgan now of Denver, after her
death, has filed a petition in bank
ruptcy court asking for decision up
on whether this body should be count
ed as an asset in the settling up Of
the business.
Levich claimed that the woman gave
him the bill of sale in 1907 for the
loan of $40. The bill of sale reads:
"Des Moines, Iowa, January, 1907.
Il, Miss Dottie Morgan of my own
free will and without coercion of any
kind, do hereby sell to Nose Levich
my body after death, to do with as he
sees fit, for the consideration of ten
dollars (s10).
The said Nose Levich shall not take
possession of my body until after am
dead and if at any time during my
life l wish to cause this bill Of sale
null and void and shall pay to Nose
Levich or his assignees $40 in good
and lawful money of the United States.
his interest in my body shall cease.

HARDENING Molasses.

Solicited molasses, says the Louis
lana Sugar Planter and Manufacturer,
is attracting the attention of a goodly
number of scientists. In experiments
made it has been discovered that in
the concentration Of molasses q con-
siderable loss of dry substance takes
place. In Java experiments were car
ried on that showed that through the
dilution Of the product the inversion
of the sucrose was fastened percepti-
bly,. When thickened to certain den
sity it will not invert when heated to
134 centigrade so long as it is neutral
or alkaline. 1t only caramelizes all
the sugar and gradually diminishes
with consequent loss of dry sub
stance. The process of hardening mo-
lasses can be divided into two periods,
before and after reaching the limit of
concentration. During the first, in
version only takes place with no loss of
the dry substance while in the last
period sucrose and reducing sugars
are replaced by pure GENERALIZATION
losses.

they were politely termed guests of

they had no scruples about leaving

In despair he allowed his little den
on an inner Office to be invaded, and
he gave himself up as lost when ten.
fifteen and even twenty correspond.

dispatches.
There was nothing to be done but
turn the correspondents themselves
into telegraph clerks, registering and
taking in their own money, and car.
rying their own dispatches to the
Eastern Telegraph Office.
And what a bewildering variety OF
currency there was to deal with: Sow.
ereigns and louis, shillings, French
pieces, and French and English bank
notes, intermingled with Turkish and
Greek coins and paper. A Babylon OF
rates, values and exchange to deal
with. 1t was sufficient to drive crazy

Peaceful Life of Little Island

Moslems and Greeks Watch Battle for
the DardaneIIes With Conflicting
Emotions-Place Of Vantage
for Correspondents.

Tenedos.-War is a good teacher Of
geography. The attack on the Oar.
danelles has brought into prominence
this little island, whose existence was
previously unknown to the millions.
The peaceful and uneventful life of
its 5000 Inhabitants has been dis

upheaval of a world-war has come to
their doors. 1t has one dominating
height, this little island OF six by

Islam still floats. A few still remain,

On the day of the attempt to force
the narrows all Of them climbed up
to Mount Elias, but they kept apart
from their fellow islanders, forming

drama Of their country enacted be-

No sound was uttered by them that
day; only on the intelligent face of
the Mufti could one discern relief
that the day had not gone so we'll for
the allies, that another respite had
been gained for the Empire Of Islam.
Tenedos, besides its normal popula-
ton supports 1000 Greek refugees
from the opposite shores, prosecuted
and expelled from their homes. These
also flocked to Mount Elias. Many of
them were from Chanak and the vii
