How Filtering Is Done
From Metallurgical and Chemical En-
neering

rTOIn MetdnuT8lCdl anu CHcIuiCdl I1l5l-
neering.
Many cities find it necessary to filter their
dr hiking water. The impure water Is
mixture of a liquid and various fine solids.
Many industrial plants have occasion TO
filter mixtures of solids and liquids in
order to effect their separation. Filtra-
ton consists of the process of separating
the solids from q mixture of solids and
liquids by causing the liquid to flow away
from the solids through porous mass,
the openings OF which are too small to
allow passage of the solids The porous
mass of altering medium which is used
depends on the fineness of the solid par
ticles in the liquid and on the density Cor
thickness) of the liquid. AS altering goes
on and more and more solid accumulates,
cake is built up on the altering me-
dunn. and there are certain laws gov
erning the flow of liquid through "a
porous mass. There are several condl-
tons which effect the flow OF the liquid
such as thickness Of cake and tempera-
tura

In the double deck idea he sees

for lighter trafYic. street cars and
pedestrians.

King Albert Refuses to

BY UNITED PRESS.

LONDON. Feb belgium has
refused separate terms of peace OF
fered by Germany. according to a
Rome dispatch today. quoting the
Ciornale d'Italia as authority for the
statement. which is understood 10
have been obtained through vatican
sources Cardinal Mercier. Of Bel
GUM. Is said 10 have conveyed this
information TO Pope Benedict dur
ing his conference few days ago.
The kaiser, the report said. agreed
TO a complete restoration of Belgium,
with the Germans granted certain
privileges at Belgian channel ports.
Germany further agreed TO pay a
large sum for the rebuilding OF de-
stroyed structures in Belgium in re-
turn for a pledge of Belgian neutral
ity for the remainder OF the war.
King Albert. II was declared. in
dignantly rejected these terms, and
announced that he would consider
no peace until the Allies were vic
torious and Germany beaten.
The Rome report. coming close on
the heels of advices from German
sources TO the effect that new Ger

aroused the greatest interest here.
Though Belgian ONO ais q few weeks
ago denied a report that Germany
had submitted peace terms. dis
patches from The Hague on Satur-
day carried Berlin reports that the
peace negotiations were progressing
satisfactorily from the German
standpoint.
