Youths Companion. Sir Thomas says
that the fatty acids Of the grease have
a corrosive action upon the metal.
Copper in particular, even u present
only In small quantity as an alloy for
gold or silver. Is converted into an
oleate, stear9te or other salt. Hagen
Smith Of the Utrecht mint found by
analysis that the dirt on bronze coin
contained 80 per cent OF copper in tho
form OF powdered compounds Of the
fatty acids. When the coin In handled
the dirt Is In part detached, and the
coin undergoes n loss Of weight. Gold
or silver IL not readily converted into
salts, but removing the copper leaves
the less easily attacked metals In
spongy form that offers little resist
anee to abrasion. In new coins the
rapid loss OF weight that occurs is
doubtless caused at first by abrasion,
but when the rough edges have been
removed chemical action may prove
to be Of the first importance In the
succeeding deterioration.

TOWNS COULD SET EXAMPLES

Than Country Roads---F armeFa
Have Better Public Spirit.

It Is high time that the rural sec
tons Of America called to the towns
to mend their ways and their streets.
says a writer in the Country Gentle
man. This Is our conclusion after q
recent tour of hundreds OF miles
through prosperous country. We
found highways Ia rux6l sections we'll
kept and comfortable, but there was
far different story Ia the small cities
and In the numerous towns and vii
lagos through which we passed. The
main country roads were smooth boule-
wards compared with the streets In
the average town or city. In some
places where the homes were hand
some and the factories busy the streets
were full Of holes.
II was q striking Illustration Of the
grNatest roads failure In America.
Small cities and towns have Jagged.
A roads expert. who recently has trnv-
eled over most Of the country, says
the fault is general. In the past five
years the rural situation has improved
vastly, but the small city and town
showing Is sad. When you near set
Element you begin to bump.
For this the explanation is TINT the
town or city has too much local in
difference. A banker said TO us:''We
have two factions and each Is 80 busy
fighting the other that nothing Is done
for the town." 1t ~ great pity. The
very communities that ought TO be
ahead ON good thoroughfares are be-
hind.
Perhaps farmers might jog them into
right action by taking their patronage
TO towns and cities that provide good
streets TO travel over.--Chicago News.

'WahOO Sam Seems To Be Fail

Ambition To Make 5000 Safe
Hits Seems Improbable.
By JACK vEIoCK.

New York, Aug. 15.-Sam Craw-
ford's ambition to run his total hits
in the big leagues up to the 1900
mark this season stands but little
chance of being realized.
Ole Wahoo Sam'l appears to be on
the verge of sliding out of the major
league picture after span of nearly
twenty years as a topnotcher in fast
company The Tigers did not carry
him on their last eastern road trip,
and considering the fact that Jen-
nings's club was fighting to strengthen
it's hold on fourth place during that
period of the race. it is a certainty
that Crawford would have been con-
sidered a valuable asset if his pinch
hitting powers were up to the stand
ard of a year or two ago.
Legs Giving Out.
Crawford's inability to compete
with the swift-legged Cobb, Veach and
Heilman III covering outfield territory
is the underlying cause of his being
relegated to the long timber. Sans
underpinning is unable to stand the
gait any more and his hitting has
fallen off, too.
One chance for Crawford to return
to the lineup as a regular came when
Jennings placed Heilman on first base
and benched Burns for time. But
Sam1 couldn't make the grade, and
Harper, a young and fast player, tho
not as good a hitter, got the job that
Crawford coveted.
If Crawford could have played half
the season as a regular his dream of
reaching the 5000 mark in safe hits
would have been reality, for up to
the season of 1917 he has amassed a
