Invar, New Metal, Believed
BY Various investigators
To Have Least Expansion

The fact that all metals expand and
contract more or less with every va
Ration Of temperature introduces great
complications into the making Of In
struments concerned with absolute
standards OF time or space, and much
research has been devoted TO the find
Ing OF a metal having the lowest pos
slble coefficlent Of thermal expansion.
In due course the investigators arrived
ut nickel steel alloy containing about
80 per cent nickel and about 8 per
cent each OF carbon apd manganese,
which was found TO have remark
ably small thermal expansion at or
binary temperatures, and to which
the name 'Tnvar" has been given.
A summary of the results obtained
during the last 20 years by various In
vestlgntOrs OF this property OF invar
and related nickel steels show, ac-
cOrdlng to the Scientific American, that
a bar OF ordinary invar expands or con-
tracts by about one-mllllonth OF Its
length for one degree centlgrade alter
alton In the temperature anywhere
within the range OF zero TO 40 de-
grees. A much higher degree OF con-
stancy than this Is, however, some
times obtained; much depends on the
amounts Of carbOns and manganese
present.
Small quantities of lnvar have heen
manufactured which showed change
In length of less than half milllOnth
per degree between zero and 20 de-
grees. This alloy contained .O6 per
cent. carbon and $50 per cent. man.
ganese. Samples have even been pre-
pared which showed negative CO.
efficient of expansion, I. e., which con-
tracted slightly instead of expanding,
as the temperature rose.
Invar possesses this peculiar prop
erty only within moderate temporal
ture range. from 40 degrees upward
the cOefficient of expansion steadily
increases as the temperature rises, I'M
til ut 200 degrees II Is the same as
that of Bessemer steel.

FriendIiness for Huns

Parngould, Ark.-TOm West, a
young farmer, expressed desire
that all American ships would be
sunk and all American soldiers
drowned before they could reach
France to fight with the allies.
West made his wants known,
and while there did not appear
to be. any immediate prospect
that he would be able to aid the
kaiser in any way. It was
thought by local authorities the
country would be just as safe

kidney TROUBLE NOT
EASILY RECOGNIZED
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected

An examining physician for one of the
dorominent life insurance companies, in an
interview of the subject, made the as.
tonlshing statement that one reason why
80 many applicants for insurance are re.
,Jected is because kidney trouble is so com.
mon to the American people, and the large
majority of those whose applications are
declined 90 not even suspect that they
have the disease.
Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
mas been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of Dr.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is
soon realized. 1t stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
We find that Swamp-Roo is strictly
an herbal compound and we would adj
wise our readers who feel in need of such a
remedy to give it a trial. 1t is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
