PLAN TO MAKE
JELLIED PEEL
Good Idea to Prepare Sup
DIV for Christmas Gifts.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture)
Within two or three weeks of
Christmas plan to make some jellied
peel for gifts. Grapefruit peel will
yield the largest and most attractive
pieces, but orange and lemon peel
may also be used Each has, of
course, it's characteristic flavor, and
after using the peel you have the
pulp left to be served as breakfast
fruit or in salad. With pound or
two of sugar and the use of the cook
stove for an afternoon you can make
any of these into delicious confec-
ton. Keep little on hand to use in
place of citron in cakes, and to serve
at holiday parties.
The method is the same with all
three kinds of peel. Thick, soft, UNI
bemished peel from smooth fruit is
best, according to the bureau of home
economics. Strip the peel from the
fruit in even sections, including just
as much of the white part as you can.

Device to Measure
Molten Metals Heat

No thermometer could ever be ex-
pected to record the temperature of
furnaces or of great masses. of molten
metal, although the development of
science along these lines has made
it very necessary to determine the
degree of heat in furnaces and con-
tanned in masses of metal, such as
huge steel billets and great cubes of
iron.
The discovery that two different
kinds of metal welded together pro-
duced q current of electricity was the
means of inventing means whereby
there can be determined the quantity
of heat, no matter how intense. The
current is measured by the voltage
and certain temperatures produce GER
tain values in electrical strength, and
that Is the way the amount OF heat
Is measured in degrees of heat, and
this has been found to be accurate.
The principle is applied in device
known as the radiation pyrometer. 1t
can stand at considerable distance
from the furnace or mass of molten
metal that is being tested and it will
record the internal heat conditions
accurately. 1t is an aid to better steel
and iron products, and as the world
progresses it will be recorded as one
of the great agencies of man to enable
him to delve into the mysteries of
natures laboratories. = Washington

The O'Briens and many other dis
tinguished Irish families claim as their
ancestor Brian Boru, king of Ireland
from 1902 to 1914. This warlke mon
arch, says writer in the Kansas City
Star, is regarded as the popular hero
of early Irish history and the stories
told about his reign have led to its
being regarded as sort of golden age.
Brian passed his youth fighting the
Danes, who were constantly ravaging
Munster, northern part of the holding
of Brian's tribe, and he won much
fame for the dashing brillancy of
these encounters. He was still quite
young when he avenged the Staying
of his brother, tribal king, and be-
came a ruler himself. Setting out on
career of conquest, he forced virtu-
ally every Irish tribe to acknowledge
him as it's chief, and during the last
IL years of his life he was regarded
as the king of Ireland. Then the
Danes made an effort to re-establish
their supremacy and some of Brian's
enemies joined the invaders. In 20

Black Phosphorus

Black posphorus, hitherto supposed
to be pure phosphorus turned black
as result of sudden cooling, is pro-
duced by the contact of phosphorus
with mercury on which 1t can react
at the moment when it passes from
the liquid to the solid state Molten
phosphorus dissolves mercury, giving
a colorless solution. When cooled
the saturated solution remains color
less In all low temperatures, but If the
phosphorus solidfies the qualification
Is very weak and the mercury Aeaves
the solidified phosphorus and colors

If black phosphorus is melted, the
mercury is easily redissolved in the
surrounding phosphorus and the whole
body becomes colorless. This Is the
correct explanation of the phenome-
non.
