X-RAY TESTS FOR STEEL.

Detecting flaws in steels and other
metals is one of the newest uses to
which the x-ray has been put. 1t has
lately been ascertained that steel is
liable to certain diseases, which lower
its tensiles power and render it unsafe
for many purposes. The A-ray will
promptly locate the diseased part. The
possibilities of overcoming this dis
ease by 11ecasting are among the sub
iects now, being studied by X-ray re-
search in O. Pittsburg physical labor
atory.
It is also known that steel ingots
always have a flaw in the top end
which must be discarded for high
grade industrial use, such as the man
ufacture OF railroad rails and other
articles requiring absolute reliability.
MANY railroad wrecks have been due
Ientirely to faulty rails. the defect of
which would have been revealed by
an X-ray examination. For years
manufacturers have been looking for
some absolute test which would in
dictate how much of the ingot must
be discarded to insure the perfection
Of the finished article, and at the same
time avoid waste. Photographs taken
of q piece OF steel which shows that the
light goes through in spots, indicate
that the metal is faulty and not to
be reKed upon. Each spot represents
a flaw. which would probably prove a
hollow IL the steel was cut at that
point.

It was to be expected that the ex-

Daniels and the ExpertsL

IA remarkable change has come
over Joseph Daniels, secretary OF the
navy. since his guide and patron,
william J. Bryan, has retired from
the cabinet. From a little navy
mani determined to upset all that
was good In the navy and to- IN
augurate strange innovations oe-
stoned to carry out Mr.. Bryan's
whins, Mr. Daniels has become
most enthusiastic promoter of dig
nayy-at least on paper. His latest
scheme sounds as if it might have
merit in it, although the skept1cs
will be disposed to await results.
It appears that a young man In As
sistant Secretary Roosevelt's once
conceived the idea of an advisory
board to be composed Of such ex-
perts as Thomas A. Edison. Orville
Wright. Henry Ford and possibly
others Without waiting to work out
the details Mr. Daniels seized upon
the idea and gave a glowing state
ment to the press. 1t was at least
good advertising and-if 1t does not
work in practice it will at least have
served Mr.. Danie1s's chief purpose.
1t will have advertised him favoraply
land the public will have forgotten
Il long before it proves failure.
The friends of the navy, however
earnestly hope it will prove practica.
Bile and will greatly benefit the naval
establishment.

GOOD IR
FOR OILY SCAIRS

Men and women whose hair and
scalp are excessively oily s1frer more
in the warmer months than at any
other time. The summers dust and
dirt n1ingle with dandrum, cling to the
oily hair and scalp. clog the scalp
pores, stihe the hair roots and make
proper cleansing almost impossible.
Partisan Sage is an ideal treatment
for this trouble. Wash the hair not
oftener than once q week. but use
Partisan Sage twice daily. pouring a
little into the parted hair and rubbing
briskIy right into the scalp with the
finger tips. 1t drives out .dandrun
dtssolyes the excess oil and stimulates
the scalp into healthy normal action.
