Peanuts In Tin Plate.

Most people are familiar with tin
plate through knowledge Of its uses
and of the fact that 1t is perennial
subject Of tariff controversy. Few
probably know that peanuts and palm
oil are two ingredients essential to tin
plate manufacture. Before the black
steel sheets are dipped in the molten
tin that forms the thin plate, they are
passed through bath Of palm oil,
for which no successful substitute has
been found in preparing the plates to
receive the tin. When the timed
sheets are rolled out Of the tin i'm
mersion they are cleansed by being
busted with a powder Of finely ground
peanut shells, much as In the days of
quill pens, when the ink was dried by
busting with fine sand.

If could only make rose bloom

Jack Frost was my most inspiring
teacher. His sketches on the bed

my ideal studies of Swiss scenery,

trees-and graceful tracery Of ferns,
like those that grew in the woods

blinded together by his touch Of en-
chantment. I wondered whether hui
