Harvesting SheIIac.

Shellac is O resinous substance, de-
posted on the twigs of various trees
in India and southern Asia by the lac
insects. At the proper time the twigs
are broken off by the native collec-
tors and exposed to the sun to kill the
insects and to dry the lac. These
twlgs with the attached resin, in
closed insects and ova constitute the
stick lac. Seed lac is obtained from
stick lac by removing the resinous con-
cretions from the twigs and triturat-
ing with water. The greater part of
the coloring matter is dissolved and
the granular portion, which remains
after drying, Is the seed lac. Shell
lac, or shellac, Is obtained by melting
the seed lac in cotton cloth bags, strain
ing and allowing It to drop on to sticks
or leaves. In this way the resin
spreads into thin plates, in which state
1t is found in commerce.

1t Is an interesting fact that many
new ideas in banking originated
through the financial difficulties of
monarchs. Once, In 119 B. c., En-
peror Quit of China discovered that
his finances were in bad shape. So
straitened was the treasury and so
gloomy the outlook that the emperor
summoned his prime minister. This
dlgnitary was made to understand that
the condition must be remedied forth
with or dire consequences to himself
would result.
AS the prime minister bowed and
scraped his way out of the royal pres
ence great idea struck him. You
see, 1t was the custom In this court,
when princes or courtiers had audi
ence with the emperor, to cover their
faces with q piece Of skin. So the
hard-pressed prime minister conceived
the plan Of having decree issued pro-
yidipg that for this purpose only the
skin of a certain white deer kept in
one of the royal parks should be per-
United. He put the plan in execution
and the pieces of skin were sold for
high prices, thereby solving the finan-
clal problem.
In this manner the first bank notes
were issued. 1t soon became custom
airy for the mobiles to circulate the
skins among one another, and while
they did not enter into general circu-
latiOn, the prime minister's ingenious
idea is believed to have constituted
the actual beginning of paper cur
rency.
The temptation to create money by
the Issuing of notes In excessive guam.
titles has long been a characteristic
Of potentates. In many countries II
was necessary to deprive the ruler of
his power to issue money and the right
was bestowed on private institutions
In 1882 A. d. the emperor of Tartary
made money Of paper and leather tC
such an extent that gold and silver fell
into disuse. At one time it took 1,00C
min, or $4,000, In paper money to buy
cake of rice. This reckless issuing
OF notes eventually placed the money
In such disrepute that in 1886 there
was no trace of 1t left.
China was no doubt the first coun
try to use coins. 1t had q system o.
its own as far back as $3.50 b. @. 1t!
"Pu" money is interesting. Thes,
coins were apparently made before thu
Chinese began to write, or before 1
occurred to them to place on coin
their denominations. At any rate
they adopted the rather laborlous plal
of indicating value by making the coil

STRANGE War Craft.

Plans for one of the strangest war
vessels ever proposed have been SUBJ
mitted to the council of national de-
Tense, says Popular Mechanics Maya
zine. The craft is an enormous ocean
going water wheel that is intended to
perform much the same service for the
navy as the British and French tanks
have for the allied armies. Although
highly visionary and entirely untrled,
it has novelty and potential power that
draws attention. In addition to being
amphibious to certain degree, it is
theoretically capable Of great speed.
Essentially it consists of two big con-
nected cylinders that are supplied
around their outer rims with adjust
able paddles. The horizontal axle Of
fers space for a crew and Is gyrO-
scopically stabilized to support a fight
ing mast. Opposite ends Of the axis
are utilized as gun turrets.

"Chariots of Iron" at GAIA.

History repeats itself down to mi
mute details, the London Star reminds
us, and recalls previous operations at
GAIA related in the Book of Joshua.
1t says:
'If that picturesque special corre-
SpOndent to whom we owe the narra-
tive of the sun and moon standing still
i nthe Valley of Aialon had witnessed
the onslaught of General Allenby's
auXiliaries, he might have pictured be-
hemoth wallOwing on the shore and
leviathan rising out of the sea. 1t Is
related in the Book of Judges that
thought the tribe of Judah took GAIA,
they could not drive out the inhabi-
tants of the valley because they had
chariOts of iron
ALLOWING for the intervening CEN
turtles which have transformed the
'chariots Of iron into tanks, we see
that in this case the Omens are in
favor of the invaders, and we may
reasonably hope that the clearing out
Of the PhiliStines will be final and COM
plete."
