Lebig said that we might gauge the
civilization Of q country by the guam
ttg Of sulphuric acid It consumed The
tDzl output Of this acid Is now about
100000 tons. according to the fourth
edition Of Professor G. Lunge's rea-
tise on its manufacture At least
100000 tons a year have been made
IN Germany, and that country has been
importing about 100000 tons besides.
Sulphuric acid Is made principally
from iron pyrites, but also from zinc
blende. 1t is essential in the manu-
facture OF high explosives. but there Is
scarcely a process Of manufacture into
which 1t does not enter. It Is said that
there is no branch Of chemical tech
nOlog that has been more thoroughly
developed than that Of the nAnufac-
ture Of sulphuric acid, but 30 keen Is
the competition that improvements are
taking place all the time.

is such a man as to render this whole
some and unbiased service:

THE REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD
SUPPORT THE HONORABLE ROB
ERT n. swEITZER FOR MAYOR
TUESDAY, APRIL 9Th.
FIRST, is because he is free from
prejudice and that means a whole lot.
SECOND, what Chicago needs is q
business administration run in a bust
ness way and by a horse sense and a
common sense method; and the many
years of business training Of Mr.. SWEET
ger in our Judgment viii give Chicago
the best service at this time for all the
people.
THIRD, We want a mayor who will
make the wheels Of business hum so
that the already unemployed will be
made happy and prosperous. Having
looked over the political field of tim
Der, We find none more qualified to fill
the bill than he.
FOURTH, he believes in a square
deal for all Of the people and will see
that they get it regardless of color, re-
ligion, condition or servitude. ,
FIFTH, the peoples greatest need
is work, not promises. What we know
of him if he is elected he will see to
it that they get employment.
SIXTH, he believes in the open door
policy which means success for us as
much as it does for any other people.
On these recommendations we ask you
to vote for him.
