TAKING POISON OUT OF SALT
Worlds Supply Seems to Be Inexhaust-
ibIe But None of 1t Is Wholly
Pure Until Treated.

As far as the supply of salt goes
II is estimated that there is enough
available to last forever. Michigan
alone, 1t is said. claims to be able to
supply the whole world for 1000 years
with all the salt 1t needs. But no
matter how plentiful salt may be, 1t
has the disadvantage of being n poi
son, for no salt is wholly pure. Thus,
If the poison In salt can be eliminated
vast additional sources viii be avail
able.
Scientists have come to the front
and have tackled the problem sue
cessfully. BY adding solution of
just the right amount of sulphate of
soda, the barium or poison in the salt
is changed to sulphate, and with 1t is
removed the pink or brownish color
due to iron salts. Thus is made avail
able an unlimited supply of salt, which
means more raw material for the
chemical industries, because the BARI
um-bearing salt is used for making ice.

The meaning of music goes deep. 1t
IS the universal language of the soul.
Where speech fails, song is only be-
ginning. Music can make mems hearts
as steel in the face of battle, when
thousands are TO be stricken down
and trampled into the earth, or 1t can
melt these same hearts to tender love
and make them tremble at sweet
hearts whisper. Music can cleanse
the soul for worship, or it can de-
prave for the vilest orgies. 1t uplifts,
and it debases; it inspires to the high,
the sweet, the true, and it deadens to
the gross and low, the vicious and the
heartless. Freedom and love and fidel-
ity and praise-words that iIlumine all
language be meaningless and
dead but for the spirit instilled into
them by song.-Exchange
