GOVERNMENT WILL URGE
SAVING OF PAPER AND RAGS
The European War Causes Shortage and
Great Advance in Price OF all
Paper

Among the many inconvenience
caused by the great war not the least
is the sudden withdrawal of the impor-
tation OF rags and other paper making
stock. A late Washington dispatch
states:
The shortage OF paper stock in the
United States was discussed at con-
ference between Secretary Redfield and
Charles A. Holder, foreign trade ad-
wiser. frances embargo on the ex-
port rags has caused many American
manufacturers to fear that they may
have to curtail production. The de-
partment will begin sending out mil
lion circulars to be posted in postoffices
and elsewhere turnout the country,
urging that paper and rags be saved.
The department of commerce promises
to put those who save paper and rags
in touch with manufacturers. The
chamber of commerce and trade asso-
Citations are asked to cooperate.

CURIOUS FACTS
The Edge of a Razor

The thickness of the edge of razor
has been estimated at about one mil
lionth Of ali inch. A powerful micro
scope shows the edge bent to one side,
the effect OF the last stroke on the
strop. If the razor is used in such a
way that the bend is toward the skin,
the edge will have tendency to cut
the skin, and if used the other way it
will glide smoothly over the skin,
but will pull the hairs upward while
cutting them. The last few strokes
on the strop should, therefore be as
light as possible, to leave only very
light bend on the edge. The con-
slant change in the direction of the
bend in stropping makes the edge
brittle, tires" it. 1t will recover il
left at rest or plunged into boiling hot
water. Razor steel is soft, compare
lively speaking. 1t is tempered at
$50 deg. Fahrenheit, while the tenn
perature for axes is $40 deg. for table
knives $50 deg, hand saws 900 deg.

LESS CRIME IN NEW YORK;
ANTl-GUN LAW CREDITED
Police Commissioner of New York
Points to Better Record.

The effect of the Sullivan law and
similar restrictive measures is notice
able In New York Police Commissioner
Woods report for 1915. A marked de-
crease in the number Of felonies is
shown. The Sullivan law prohibits
having a pistol In ones possession,
even In the home, without permit
There were 246 murders In the city
IN 1915 as compared with 257 In 1914
and 2S6 In 1913.
For 1915 arrests were made in 156
cases; 166 In 1914 and 1877 in 1913. For
all felonies the arrests numbered 23,171
as compared with 23,62S for the pre-
vious year.
Commissioner Woods lays stress upon
the number of convictions obtained
during the year, the highest record
ever obtained by the department, he
reports. The convictions were placed
at 161,121, or 1894 per cent Of the
cases disposed of. In 1914 the per-
centage was 74.56, In 1918 1857 and In
1912 1852.
OF the murders committed 1913 were
with firearms. The effect of the Sulli-
van law is particularly noticeable In
this respect. In 1914 the murders by
shooting numbered 1874, and 1853 for the
previous year. Burglaries decreased
progressively throughout the year.
Grand larcenies decreased throughout
the first three-quarters. but increased
during the last quarter.

ABSORBS GERMAN GASES.
Sodium ThiosuIphate Used by Allies to
Circumvent Foes.

The armies Of the allies are using
sponges or gauze soaked with some So
luton to absorb the chlorine and bro
mine gases employed by the Germans
In trench warfare. Ordinary "hypo,"
or sodium phosphate, is widely used
for this purpose, and it gives generally
good results except that the reaction
between the hypo and chlorine or bro
mine liberates hydrochloric and sui
phuric acid.
These acids, the Scientific American
says, can be successfully neutralized
by adding sodium carbonate to the
hypo solution, making the mixture as
follows: Crystallized sodium carbonate
decahydrate), sixty parts; crystallized
hypo pentahydrate). ifty-two parts
and water 100 parts.
Drying of the solution can be pre-
vented by the addition of glycerol.

WOULD MOVE THE CAPITAL
Milwaukee Congressman Wants 1t Lo-
Gated Where Beer Flows.

Congressman William Joseph Cary OF
Milwaukee, where the beer flows ever,
has introduced a resolution that the
capital of the United States be trans
ferred from Washington to Milwaukee.
Representative Cary, who has the rep
utation of being able. remarked in
brief:
81 offer this resolution because pend
Ing legislation may make the District
of Columbia dry Heaven forbid! A
dry national capital would be a menace
to society and to good government"
1t is understood here that Mr.. Cary
has no ambition to be president, even
with the brewers backing. He was
born in Milwaukee in 1865 and at
eleven was left an orphan with five
younger brothers and sisters, whom he
raised" He started life as messen-
ger boy.
