USES OF TvssosrEN
MAKE 1T VALUABLE

The word tungsten" is Swedish
and means heavy stone. a very apt
title for q metal whose identity re-
manned . mystery until the latter part
OF the eighteenth century. says the
Mining American.
Tungsten Is a word Of almost magic
sound: It means as much to the miner
Of today as did gold to the Forty
miners. A few years ago 1t was ex-
tracted by the gold miners OF Boulder
county, Colorado. and was avoided
whenever possible because it lowered
&he value OF their concentrates. 70.
In this respect its history resembles
that Of two other metass-in the great
Comstock lode Of Nevada, where the
early miners threw away the black
sulphide Of silver worth several thou
sand dollars ton, and at Leadville,
while the camp was getting its start
and the lead carbonate caused the
placer miners a great deal of trouble
by filling up the rifles in the sluice
boxes and interfering with the saving
OF gold. Silver made millions for the
Comstock miners, lead carbonates
with their contents did the same for
Leadville, and tungsten bids fair to do
likewise for -its- producers.
The principal minerals of tungsten
are scheelite, wolframite and ferberite.
The metal Is practically insoluble In
all the common acids. It's melting
point Is 3117 degrees centigrade. 1t is
not affected by the atmosphere. Its
tensile strength exceeds that of iron
or nickel and 1t is so ductile that it
can be drawn to smaller size wires
than any known metal, at the same
time retaining its remarkable strength
and pliability.
Its largest uses at present are in
tool steel, lining high-powered guns
and cannon, hardening armor plate
and the points of armor-piercing shells
1t Is said that one metal-cutting ma
chine equipped with tungsten steel can
do the work of five machines equipped
with carbon steel tools.
AS a steel alloy tungsten is added
in varying quantities: for saw blades
to 2 per cent; for high-speed tools

used in working metals. from 1s to 20
per cent. Tungsten rteel drills. by
holding their temper when red hot, can
be run at many times greater speed
than carbon steel drills. and. therefore,
their use results in large saving OF
labor costs.

Just a few words about the Summer furs an
afraid that they are going the extravagant limit, and
there is no reason why this charming mode should bo
made unpopular in this way. Fur, like everything else
almost, can be used perfectly harmoniously as a decora.
ton, whether it is Summer or Winter. The straw hat
trimmed with fur has appeared as a natural conse.
ouence Of the fashion. There are some that are charm.
ing. Ermine is the garniture most in evidence, but any
fur can be used il it is done tremendously.
/ must, however, frown upon the fur mum for Sum.
mer. Little chiffon muffs, or the flower mun, are both
pretty. The fur muff, however. brings in a Winter note
that is very disharmonious to the Summer costume.
The new fur buttons are pretty, and can. be used
with telling effect On a number of gowns.
Fitch fus arg attractive. | do not like for Summer
The mixed furs. Plain furs are better. and in every
case the fur itself should be subordinated to the whole
effect. 1t Is, after all, only an interesting note There
Is no. utility at all to 1t, and II 1t is allowed to dominate
the whole costume it turns a pretty Summer dress into
O hybrid Winter connection.

T YERE are some party" dresses. have heard that
II curious expression SO often in this country that
l am tempted to write a little about it.
Evidently there is a feeling that a dress for a party
ought to be something entirely distinctive and different
much, In a way, like the old Sunday goto-meeting"
clothes.
All life Is a party, more or less. Sometimes 1t is a
pleasant party, and sometimes not SO pleasant. But it
always has all the elements.
When you dress for q party you mean that you
are going to put on a gown which will arouse the admi-
ration and interest Of those whom you expect 10 meet.
And that is all right-one ought to. But the whole day
long the same conditions exist. When you are by your
self in the morning 1t is really cup to YOU to be dressed
as beautifully as possible. For. after all, ones self Is
ones best audience.
The way you feel in the morning usually determines
cay TO y~ourself-"Dont look nice and pretty?" you
start in with q feeling OF self-confdence and %amiability
that will give you impetus over all the bumps Of the
acurs co.ling.
II you are going to meet some one after your hours

the day or night when a woman can afford to be any.
thing but we'll dressed. By that ! do not mean elab-
orately or extravagantly dressed at all. 1t IS not ex.
pensive, unless you want to make it so. to be in that
desirable condition.
A woman who thinks that ANY old sort of thing is
all right to have on until she "has to meet people"
is the kind who gets slipshod mentally as we'll as physi.
caNy. She has one standard of conduct for herself
when alone, Gnd another for herself when she is with
others. This makes for artifciality and insincerity.
The real person is sincere, simple and harmonious all
the time, whether alone or not.
One %oughtnt to have 'Sunday-goto.meeting' clothes
or Sunday .go-to-meeting' manners, and one oughtnit to
have party" manners any more than one ought to have
party" dresses.
I know that this may not seem to you much like
fashion, but as l have often remarked, the impulses that
underlie fashion do not deal go much with dresses es
with humanity.

GENERAL RAILWAY
INQUIRY PLANNED
Roads to Propose to Congress
That Work of Commerce
Commission Be Divided
BY Zones.

Washington. d. c.. July 1.-THE most
important railroad and transportation
investigation this country has ever
seen will be soon started. Senator Cum
Minis has beet settled on for one Of the
investigators. The investigation as pro-
posed provides for an inquiry into
transportation problems by a joint COM
mittee ot congress.
President Wilson urged 1t last De-
cember The Senate has passed the
resolution and the House will soon. The
railroads are watching the situation
closely and are prepared to come for
ward with a definite plan.
This plan involves compulsory federal
Incorporation and enlargement Of the
Interstate Commerce commission with
an arrangement for dividing the coun-
try into zones and putting three COM
missioner in charge of each zone. In
important cases appeals would be taken
to the full commission setting at Wash
ington.
In other words, the work of the COM
mission which has grown too big for a
single body, would be disposed of some
thing like the handling of litigation by
the circuit court of appeals and the
supreme court.
Government ownership government
control of capitalization, government
control of all railways, state and inter-
state and many phases Of the great
question of transportation will be
studied.

.U-BOAT EXPLOITS
MAY AFFECT NAVY
Experts Say Cross Sea Voyage
Opens Field For Unlimited
Developments of Under
Water Craft.

Washington. July Unsuccessful ne
gotiation of the high seas by subma-
rine craft, as demonstrated by tho Ger
man Deutschland in navigating more
than 5000 miles through areas infested
naval officials here as indicating the
quick approach Of the time when giant
underwater boats will divide hopors
with the superdreadnaught types as
masters of the seas. The sensational
feature of the Deutschland caused q
stir in navy circles, many officers ac-
cepting it as the first practical fulfill
ment of the faith naval constructors
have put in the theory of underwater
navigation on a high seas scale. The
oretcally, the cruising radius of the
submarines Of the United States fleet
is 5000 miles, but in point Of fact, the
longest single cruise ever performed by
them without mishap was that made
by the K class boats last year, from
San Francisco to Honolulu, distance
of about 1000 miles.
The submarine Schley. the largest
type under contract by the navy de-
against an estimated speed OF IL for
the Deutschland; will be 275 feet in
length, against the 800 feet for the lat
ter; and will have 1900 tons displace-
ment against probably 5000 for the
latter.
Nope of the military characters OF
the Deutschland in the opinion Of Of
ficials here surpasses that of the
Schley.
What possibilities lie behind the de-
velopment of war vessel of the SUI
persubmarine type that could strike eff
fectively ships of the enemy in ports
several thousand miles from their base
is subject Of much speculation here.
It Is conceded that 1t might break
down the ordinary barriers to attacking
the Isolated nations as the Deutschland
has broker, trade barriers. It might
open up Also navy officers believe, an
entirely new field of experiment in the
defense Of coast lines and the main
tenance Of blockades
Negotiations for the study Of the
submarines of the Deutschland type in
the United States were opened by the
ginning Of the war. Several concerns
were found who offered to build the
vessels, but the project failed because
Of difficulties regarding their delivery
to Germany. The Deutschlands ac-
complishment was pointed to by high
naval officer today as a strong argu-
ment for the construction of sub
marines to be permanently with the
fleet as part Of it's complete organiza-
ton. He estimated that within five
years submarines would be required to
make the United States navy an eff
fecent factor in naval defense not only
along the coast. but at sea also.
