NO CHANGE FOR COLLECTORS
THE UNIvER RSAL CAR

Beer steins, wine glasses and bar towels are rapidly joining the dust covered and mildewed relics of the days that preceded January 16, 1920, when the prohibition law went into effect.
 As the saloons become scarcer, bar room paraphernalia, from relic col lectors viewpoint, become more valu- able. One restaurant In the Bay Ridge section of Brooklyn Is taking no chances on losing its mementoes of the past days. The stained glass windows of the old saloon remain, but the bar has been removed to make way for the tables of the new restau- rant. Tn the redecorated establish ment a shelf runs entirely around the room. All along the shelf are ex- quisite old German beer steins, relics of former days and more valuable now as mementoes. Passing through the handle of each stein is a chain, which is nailed to the wall. Unscrup- ulous souvenir hounters, waiting until the walters back is turned, find their designs foiled. What the old bar has left of the old regime 1t purposes to keep.-New York Sun.

NEW SMOKE-BURNING DEVICE

A new water-cooled bafie-plate de- vice for installation in the firebox of . conventional up-draft furnace has the effect of converting 1t into one having some of the characteristics of the down-draft type. It is described in Popular Mechanics. Its construc- ton Is simple, consisting of two hol- low steel compartments of different heights, arranged crosswise of the firebox, at a point somewhat to the rear of the center, with the higher one at the back, thus dividing the fire box into two distinct combustion zones. As the two chambers are sep arated by few inches and the higher one reaches to the boiler by the crownsheet, the gases and smoke lib- erated by the forward portion of the fire are forced to pass over the top of the low forward section, down be- tween 1t and the rear section, under the latter, and over the hottest part of the fire, where they are consumed.

RELIC OF GLACIAL AGE

Devils Pulpit, located about two miles east of Batavia, N. r., is relic of the glacial age. It Is a huge mass of rock shaped like an hour glass, and is one of the most peculiar and striking natural formations in the whole state. The base is fully 30 feet across. It slopes upward to nar- row rock, corresponding to the neck through which the sands of an hour glass slft, and then broadens out to form what looks like the upper cham Der of the glass. It Is composed of limestone and stands 20 feet in height. The nearest bedrock like 1t is five miles away to the north, and ge- ologists believe this means that the rock was torn loose from Its original mother vein and dragged those five miles by the big glacier that swept down from the polar regions ages ago. Natural erosion did the carving that gives 1t the hour-glass contour.

PADS HYGIENIC NECESSITY

As Walter Dill Scott suggests, every business youth, on beginning his or her business life, should adopt an avocation, fad, some outside in- terest, only less absorbing than his business, and should continuously cul. tivate 1t as foil, rest, saving grace to his business. Provided this fad or unbusinesslike interest be one not too narrow and one not too diffi- cult and fatiguing, the recipe Is funda- mentally an important one for this matter of business hours as well as for personal hygiene in general.-G.

HOME OF GIANT CREATURES

The giant rat of the Solomon islands is remarkable animal--a great, fierce creature, much bigger than a rabbit, and causing endless mischief to plantations and stores. Another ani. nal giant is bull-frog, seldom found less than two and a half to three pounds in weight, and with 6 croak as mighty in volume as size.
 Another giant is an oyster, a tough but still edible mollusc, that covers large-size dinner plate. One Is quite enough for a meal, and 1t is eaten with a knife and fork, like a steak.
 Animals are not plentiful, but fish and birds abound in great varieties. There are many kinds of pigeons, in- cluding one of great beauty of plumage with a long tail, and unknown in any other part of the world

HAVE OBJECT IN THRIFT.

If you are thrifty you will thrive You will lose some friends you will be better off without and you will gain few that will help you play the game. Make your ideals big enough to make them worth striving for. When they are big enough to let oth- CTS know that you are after more than the ordinary they will wag their heads, and you will dig in and show them. You are never up to your best until you are going the limit. The very ne- cessity of the case drives you to moro determined effort, and the effort calls forth ability neither you nor your friends ever dreamed you had. And the best part of it all is that every one can start the thing.-Grit

TO PURIFY SWIMMING POOL


 Public swimming pools should be supplied with water that is constantly changing, but that remains at one temperature. This is not practical in ordinary cases. and, though we should prefer a fresh water bath, substi- ute has to be employed. There are several systems by which this is ac- complished. First, strainer Is used to remove large particles such as grit. Then 1t Is necessary to sterilize the water. This can be done in several ways, either by exposure to the open air or by subjecting the water to the effects of ozone, and finally by the use of ultraviolet light. But 1t Is essential that the water should also be filtered.-Popular Science Monthly.

THE MAGNITUDE OF ONE MINING COMPANIES
 HOLDINGS IN ARIZONA

Clifton, Ariz.-Details of the terms of transfer show that in the sale of the Arizona Copper company, it's stockholders have gained a tenth in terest in the Phelps-Dodge corpora tion, with par value of $5,000,000 and have dropped upon the purchasing corporation all debts accrued.
 The old company will be continued, but only as a holding corporation, re- taining its Edinburgh office and cash sum of about $175,000. There appears no intention just now of turning the Phelps-Dodge shares over to the in- dividual Scottish investors.
 Need New Plant
 The principal reason for the sale appears to lie in decision of the di- rectors that approximately S10,- 100000 would be required to establish a reduction plant capable of handling at profit an immense tonnage of ores available, but of too low grade for the present reduction facilities. There is belief that the purchaser, with its great resources, will be able to develop some method by means of which these low grade ore bodies can be treated at minimum cost.
 The company shut down its opera tions May 31, after demonstration of the fact that copper could not be produced for the income derived from its sale at that time. The net def- ciencies at that time approximated $1 100000.
 In the details given the stockhold- CTS as basis for the idea of selling, the directors give some interesting data on the operations of the Phelps Dodge corporation. This in part, fol- lows:
 Huge Dividends Paid Tt is not possible at present to place a market value upon the shares of Phelps Dodge corporation, as trans actions seldom take place, the bulk of the shares being held by few family groups.
 "The dividends which have been paid by the corporation for the past few years have been as follows: 1909, 1910 and 1911, 12 per cent each year; 1912, 15 per cent; 1913, 16h per cent; 1914, IA per cent; 1915, 20 per cent; 1916, 32A per cent; 1917, 32 per cent; 1918, 30 per cent; 1919, 1920, 10 per cent each; in all 216 per cent, or an average of IS per cent. During the current year the dividends have been restricted to 4 per cent per annum." This statement has been based upon the par value of S100 share for the Phelps-Dodge stock.
 The corporation has capital stock of $50, 100000. It owns or controls the Copper Queen property at Bisbee, the Montezuma at Nacozari and Pilares, Sonora, the Detroit at Morenci adjoin- ing the property just purchased, the Bunker Hill at Tombstone, embrac- ing the famous old Bonanza mines; the Burro mountain in New Mexico; the Stag Canyon coal mines in New Mexico; smaller copper and gold mines in Yavapai county, Arizona; the great Copper Queen smelter at Douglas; large mills at Nacozari, Bisbee and Morenci, and large holdings in the Old Dominion and United Globe mines at Globe.
 Within the corporation also is the Phelps-Dodge Mercantile company with many branches. Members of the corporation control the Fl Paso & Southwestern railway and are large shareholders in the Rock Island sys- tenn. With the latest purchase goes over 100 miles of broad-guage rail way that joins the Southwestern at Hachita, N. M.

SNAILS AND SCREWS.

Nearly all inventions have been sug. gested by natural objects.
 Fremont, of the French School of Mines, points out an interesting ex- ample in the case of the screw, the fundamental idea of which, he be- lieves, was suggested to primitive man by the spiral shape of the edible snail.
 It was not the shape of the shell that suggested the screw, but the spiral motion which 1t is necessary to give to the body of the snail in order to withdraw 1t from the shell. This at once showed that an object of a screw shape embedded in a solid pow erfuly resisted attempts to withdraw 1t by straight pull.
 The hint was enough, and the screw became one of the earliest of mans inventions.
