WASHINGTON, June 13.-Abdlca-

For the moment. the abdication

the thing they were unable to wiring
from the obdurate and pro-German
Constantine.
And the first evidence Of this Will
come from allied control of the rlch
harvests of Thessa1y. These harvests
are badly needed and will solve the
problem OF victualizing the British
forces in Macedonia. In addition,
the allied control will be such as to
thwart any junction between creek
troops and the Teutonic forces.
The idea of a Grecian republic has
been fomented for some time ana
the state department has had a re-
ouest before it to recognize Venf-
ze1os government. This has never
received action, however. as this gov
eminent wanted to act in full accord
with the allies. even though its own
IncIinations would be to recognize
republic in Greece.
The allies have been able to make
this coup largely because OF removal
of imperial pressure from Russia
when the czar was in power, the
British and French found themselves
blocked in their Greek dealings
often because of his influences and
friendship for Greece.
Whether 1t will be possible to
actually use Greek troops to aid the
allies is problematical. In any event
the Greek situation is such now that
the army cannot harrass the British
forces that might now be thrown
northeastward to cut the Berlin to
Bagdad pathway.

How to Test Diamond.

The frequent deception of the pub
lie In regard to the sale of jewelry
and genuine stones in Great Britain
has induced the authorities to issue q
statement upon the accurate testing
Of diamonds. A number of instruc-
tons is given, including the follow
ing formula: When a diamond is
quite clean and dry carry out the
following experiment: Place on the
surface tiny drop Of water. Now
take a needle or pin and try to move
the drop about. If the diamond is
genuine the drop can be rolled about
intact. On the other hand, where the
gem is an imitation the water spreads
directly it is touched with the needle
point. Another very good test may be
carried out with tumbler of water.
Into this put the suspected article and
examine it's appearance A real dia-
mond will show up in the water with a
startling clearness, and it can never be
confounded with the water. On the
other hand, the imitation looks indefi-
mite, and 1t is sometimes difficult to see
it clearly at all.

The Earth's Maunetisn,

In an attempt to trace the origin
Of the earth's magnetism, M. Radot,
in paper to the Paris Academy of
Sciences, has assumed that the in
terror of the earth is an alloy in which
iron predominates, and that the tenn
perature under the continent is above
the critical point at which iron loses
its magnetic properties (75O degrees to
300 degrees c.. 1t is believed that I'M
der the oceans more rapid cooling may
have reduced the temperature below
$50 degrees in the superficial layer, so
that certain thickness may be mag
netic. Experiment seems to support
this theory and, with the ocean areas
Of an artificial globe covered with thin
sheets Of iron, Wulde has obtained a

NO ELECTROLYslS IN TEETH
Filling Of Two Cavities in One Tooth,
With Different Metals Not Dam
gerous, 1t Is Said.

Among dentists there is a difference
of opinion as to whether the filling of
two cavities in one tooth with differ
ent metals-One with mercury ANAL
gam, one with gold, for instance-will
cause rapid decay Of the tooth through
electrolytic action between the two
metals.
The matter was submitted to the edi-
tor of the Electrical Review, who re-
plies that if the amalgam is thorough
ly mixed there is no danger Of electro
lysis, but that If the mercury be not
properly Incorporated in the mass
chemical action is quite likely to fol-
low. He says that he and q dentist
experimental with voltaic piles made
of gold and amalgam, with blotters
wet with sodium chloride and later
with acetic acid, and when the ANAL
gam had been properly mixed they
were unable to measure any electro
lytic action.
When decay does follow in such
cases, he says, it is due not to electro
lytic, but to chemical action. This
causes disintegration of the filling and
of course, as SOoE as this has begun
the acids of the mouth and the juices
of the food can penetrate to the I'M
protected surface of the cavity and
start further decay. And this takes
place irrespective Of whether or not
gold has been used nearby.

MANY JOBS FOR Ex-CONVlCTS
Eastern Writer Finds Remarkable
Change Has Taken Place in
Employers Attitude.

A year ago hardly anyone seemed to
want to give the released prisoner a
job. A year followed of Mr. Osborne
and good times, and the great change
has come. Today the special employ
ment secretary of the Prison Associa-
ton Of New York says he is able to
refute the statement frequently made
that discharged prisoners are return
ing to crime because nobody will hire
them, 0. f. Lewis writes In the Amer
lean Review of Reviews. In July,
1916, he reported that every able
bodied man that applied during the
month Of June, and was willing to
work and take what was found for
him, was placed within a few days.
Wages ran from So to $50 week.
One ex-prisoner writes that he is
getting $18 week as bookkeeper and
general clerk, and is going to repay
the expenses betrayed in my behalf"
Another of the gray brotherhood says
that he has suffered" an increase in
salary and that he is not kicking
about the Saturday afternoon holiday

Goodwill toward the released pris-
oner is spreading. Hundreds of New
York merchants were asked last win
ter to give employment to men just out
Of prison. A manufacturer, having

given false statements as to having
had prison record for the purpose of
securing positions.

One of the speakers at the Illi-
nois Horse Breeders association
said that one reason for the fact
that our farm horses are not as
good as they ought to be is the
scarcity of good, useful sires. APP

ing for public service in this coun-
try are grades and scrubs and half
the pure breds ought never to have
been used as sireS. The stallion
