dated March %. 1915, IN which 1t says:

make deposits on the opening day.
1T was not surprised, however" he
continued. "for this Is distinctly a north
east institution, and Is the only bank in
this section of the city. 1t is only
natural that the people here should take
an interest In 1t and give 1t their sup
port"
The bank has been incorporated for
800, 900, and has men prominently identi-
fed with Washington's banking in
terests as officers and directors. DIR.

Attractive Might Lamps.

So-called Damascus shrine lamps"
come from the far East and are now
being used in America for night lights,
or in rooms where only candle light
is used. The base of the shrine is q
fluted shallow brass pan four inches in
diameter, which holds candle. It
hangs at the bottom of wreath Of
prettily-wrought leaves. The wreath
is the size Of tea plate, and at the
top it holds a dome over the candle
flame. In the top of the dome there
is heavy hook to swing the light by.
These lamps are particularly decora-
tive, lending themselves to their back
ground harmoniously, especially in
rooms with black paint and yellow
wall coverings.

Glass and Bacteria.

The extreme delicacy of many scien-

port Of DR.. Martin Flicker, German
investigator, that bacteria are affect
ed fayorably, or otherwise, by the
character Of the glass containing tho
water in which they are suspended.
Marked differences in the behavior of
cholera germs were noted, according
to the kind of glass composing the
vessels used. The degree of alkalinity
impaired by the glass to the water is
believed to be an important factor in
these experiments.
