Mixtures of Metals
Alter Tints of Gold

Gold is a metallic chemical element,
valued from earliest ages on account
Of the permanency of Its color and
luster. Gold has a characteristic vel.
low color, which is. however, notably
affected by small quantities of other
metals; thus the tint is sensibly low
cred by small quantities Of silver.
This Is pale gold or whitish gold, but
II is gold, just the same, except the
small quantity Of silver. The tint of
gold, on the other hand, is heightened
by a small quantity Of copper. Gold
from different mines often has a diff
ferent tint, some being deep yellow or
orange, and some is considerably
paler. Gold forms alloys with most
metals, and of these many are of great
importance In the arts. 1t readily al

substances in use from remote times

amount OF gold In an alloy Is com

Dominated Athens by
Virtue of Her Intellect

The pulchritude of Aspasia is mat
ter of dispute among historians, but
those who claim that she was a raw
lshing beauty, and those who set forth
the opposite-that she was a severely
plain wOman-agree that she was the
voice back of the silver tongue Of
Perlcles and the fountain Of much of
the wisdom Of Socrates.
According to Plutarch she was
splendid conversationalist and by her
intellect she virtually ruled the men
of Athens. Aspersions of the bitterest
degree were thrown upon her char
acter by some poets of her time, es-
pecially those envious ones who de-
sired to injure Pericles, but most
Athenians believed in her purity and
certainly In her wisdom regardless of
her actions. Husbands and their
wives came to her for counsel and
she, sitting as a court Of justice,
smoothed out the rough places for
them.
Her DEGREES were accepted without
question, even though she, instead Of
encouraging a separation, cOunseled
them to make the most of bad bar
gain and do the best they could. Be-
cause Of this attitude 1t would be
one of the most interesting revelations
history could make If 1t told how she
reconciled Pericles to divOrcing his
wife to become her OWE mate.-Ex-

Risked Life Seeking
Ideas for Explosives

When I'm 1864 Emmanuel Nobel, the
Swedish inventor, was experimenting
with explosives and his building blew
up, killing one of his sons and several
other persons, the government forbade
him to continue such dangerous work.
However, he bought a scow and
anchored it in Lake Malar, and there
he and his son, Alfred, best known
today for the Nobel prizes, continued
their experiments that were to reyo-
lutionize the explosive industry and
prepare the way for modern high ex-
plosives.
1t was on this old boat that Alfred
made the discovery that his liquid ex-
plosive, nitro-glycerin, could be mixed
with an inert porous substance such
as clay or chalk, thus making an ex-
plOsive that was much more powerful
and much more safely handled, as 1t
was in solid form. 1t was not till
1876 that this explosive, to which he
gave the name of dynamite" was
perfected. Before long there were
factories in all leading countries max
Ing it.
He also brought out other forms of
explosives, including the first smoke
less powder. Nobel believed in mild
ness and peace and regretted that his
inventions were put into use by an
archlsts and others who employed
them for evil purposes. He also re

service to make war more destructive

Used the New Name

Years ago a young London dramatic
critic blessed with the fine old name
Of Moses, got the idea that he would
make greater strides in his profession
were he to change his name. And so
he did, blossoming forth as-Morton.
Israel Zangwill, a brilliant wit, al
though fond of Morton, never quite
fOrgave him the change of name, and
on one occasion when the critic was
the guest of honor at a dinner, over
which Zangwill presided, the latter
stopped the show" for several min
utes when he began his remarks with:
"And the Lord spake unto Morton,
Saying-".-Kansas City Star.

Too Many Butts in Joke

When Peter Campbell of Elaine,
Australia, entered his bachelor quar-
tiers he was knocked fiat on the floor.
Regaining his feet he was knocked
down again. Crawling out of the way
of danger, he struck a match, and
found facing him a large ram with
distriet-wide reputation for butting.
Campbell sustained severe bruises and
lots Of shocks. His door was locked
when he left home, and the police are
looking for the practical Joker who
opened it to pass in the butter that
caused Campbell nearly to pass out.
