MANY USES FOR QUIcKslLvsq
semi-Precious Metal, Much in Demand,
Is Becoming Scarce-Sometimes
Employed as Drug.

Quicksilver is one of the semi-pre-
cious metals, and is gradually becom-
ing scarce. The metal is noted for its
many uses, besides the familiar one
in the thermometer. Its tendency to
unite with gold into an amalgam
causes It's chief use. The mercury is
spread over a copper plate over which
the gold ore is washed The gold from
it's weight comes in contact with the
plate and is promptly amalgamated
with the quicksilver. from which it is
separated by heat.
Quicksilver is also known for its
use as medicine when rubbed to a
fine, globular powder with rose wa
ter, under the name Of blue mass.
Among the chemical compounds of
quicksilver is bichloride of mercury,
made by heating a mixture of mer-
curic sulphate and common salt. This
is sometimes taken as poison and
results in painful and lengthy suffer-
ing and in death. Quicksilver is also
very essential to the manufacture of
high-class mirrors.

No small amount of attention has just been directed towards Miss Put nam when after her marriage to Rob ert J. Sanderson. district manager of the New. England Telephone Co, she resumed her own residence, he re- turned to-his, and she kept her name Nina Wilcox Putnam
 Its queer how much people make of such things" says she. "I went back to my home after being married because I had important work to fin ish before I could play awhile. So had my husband. And I kept my name because my lawyer told me it would mean ruin for me to change my writ ing name.
 Common Sense Attire
 But just now she and her two- year old son by former marriage, and her husband. are living in his home at Bridgeport.
 At home or in her studio she may be found attired either in a tweed cos tune much resembling a riding habit. with putfees, or in black silk panta- looms, a long Russian smock and with her black hair drawn away from her face with red -flowered. yellow silk kerchief.
 Its so silly she decrees, for women to go about the house attired in a house dress that's harder to keep clean, and more delicate. than an eve ming gown.

 Call up that shaft. Bob Whistle to them! Shout" I exclaimed.
 It had taken us but a few minutes to hasten through our long eXplana tons, nevertheless, I was appalled, to thing that we had wasted much valu- able time. Suddenly I realized that after the fall of the heavy wall panel which Spence and Archer had battered down, not a singleV sound had come from the friends in the room high above us.
 Gall up the shaft.' [ cried again.
 Bob whistled-I knew well the old fraternity signal. But his brothers did not return the whistle. Only a faint and silly echo came back to UT ears.
 Then Bob cried, Spence, Archer Chrys." in his far-carrying voice. The words mocked us in faint stage whisper, Spence, Archeri Chrys,' Then silence ensued, an abominable, ominous silence. It made me cling closer to Bob's arm as we stood in the darkness and listened.
 What has happened-up there?" I Inquired in awe.
 Bob didn't reply to that. Instead, he asked a question of me:
 The hammering which went on While you were screaming to stop it. you said it was the pounding which caused your little box of a closet to slide down into my pit?'
 By incheS-yeS-Bob,' Then rushed on breathlessly, a new hope crowding my thoughts so fast that my words were almost a tumble:
 The cell-it was like little old elevator settling down by fits and starts. Something about the pounding seemed to loosen small levers or stones of course, I don't understand, Rob- but maybe the wall has little cogs, or steps down the corners2"

 Any possibility probably you could climb up the wall by means of them?''

 Nina Wilcox Putnam has* decided views of the menace to worfiens de- velopment contained in bolshevism. She believes the slow but sure de- velopment of-women through the ages has been due entirely to education and it's results, both upon men and women, and that this development will not stop unless stopped by bolshevism

BABIES AND EDUCATION ARE TWO EQUALLY NECESSARY IDEALS FOR WOMEN, SAYS AUTHOR.

BRIDGEPORT, Conn.,. Feb. 20.- "The time will come when a person will not be classified by the words man or woman but rather by the fact of personal ability
 These are the words of Nina Wilcox Putnam, writer, whose literary and screen productions, in the opinion of more than a few critics, are likely to play a large part in the molding of opinion of her sex during the coming years.
 The time will come" she continues, when the women who are strongest mentally and physically will work for the progress of humanity alongside men equally strong mentally and phy sically.
