Mercury, Gold and Other
Materials Outweigh Lead

The finding of the densest material
on earth is relatively simple matter.
All that need be done is to weigh and
measure all known forms of matter
that are available. In general we find
that solid metals are denser than
gases, liquids, or nonmetallic solids.
Consequently it is not surprising that
the heaviest substances known are
metals, writes DR.. Thomas NJ. Beck,
in the Chicago Tribune.
Lead, which is proverbial for its
heaviness, is far from being the heav-
lest metal In fact, it is not even the
heaviest of the commonly known ones ;
mercury is somewhat heavier. and
gold has almost twice its density. But
there are three rather rare metals,
platinum, iridium, and osmum, having
almost identical densities. which are
the heaviest materials known to man.
OF the three osmium happens to be
slightly the densest. with density of
about 22.5.
Everyone is aware that gases are
the least dense of all forms of mat
ter. The heaviest gas is far lighter
than the lightest of solids or liquids.
And the lightest of gases is hydrogen,
with a density at ordinary temperature
and pressure of about .0000S3.

Pulled Flows by Tails

The pillow, simplest and most basic
farm implement, reached excellence
only after centuries Of painful prog
ress. Research by the bureau of agri-
cultural engineering shows that the
first plows. fashioned from crooked
tree branches, were pulled by one or
more men, another forcing the crude
implement into the soil. The barbar-
Gus custom of fastening draft cattle
to plows by their tails was practiced
as late as 1851. When an attempt was
made to introduce cast-iron plows in
the United States, farmers declared
they poisoned the soil and prevented
crops growing. Sir Robert Peel in
1860 gave his farmers "two iron
plows of the best construction" On
his next visit they were again using
wooden plows, believing that iron
plows made the weeds grow.

Chameleon Uses Tongue
to Snare Insect Dinner

The chameleon has five toes which
are arranged in opposed sets on both
fore and hind feet. Such equipment
enables him to walk straight up d
wall or upside down on the under side
of large leaf. Unique among lizardsl
Is his extremely active tail that rolls
downward In a fiat spiral, and which
he uses for clinging to twigs and vinesJ
When angry or threatened, he becomes
a fiery red or a brilliant orange in
color, and puffs up like toad.
The chameleon lives entirely on ina
sects which he catches with his long
and. somewhat sticky tongue. This
tongue Is most astonishing to one who
has never seen it, says a writer in the
Los Angeles Times. At the free .end,l
1t is shaped like club, and at theI
base it slips into a sheath that isl
located at the bottom of his thrOat.l
When insects are to be caught, he CAM
shoot it out to distance that Is equal
to more than half OF his total length
and return 1t like a rubber band toll
its original position. The dexterityl
with which he operates this wonderful
instrument is almost too fast to follow
with the naked eye. His eyes. too. ares
most extraordinary, because the two,
eyeballs move quite Independently
One may be looking at an object bel
hind him, while the other views one In

tiny, circular oriiice through which the

The dulcimer is an instrument hav-

compass of two or three octaves. 1t is

idea of the piano action. The origin
of the dulcimer is remote, and must

Sheffield Ware Popular
Before Electro Plating

Sheffield ware antedates the develop
ment of electro-plating and has a fas-
cinating sort of history of its own.
1t is a process that has not been
used since about 1850, but was used
for more than 100 years prior to that
date to make fine table silverware
and other art objects, states writer
in the Atlanta Constitution.
To make Sheffield ware the artisan
took two ingots of silver and placed
a bar Of copper between. The three
blocks were pressed together as tight
ly as possible with twisted wire and
then placed in a welding oven. The
worker watched through window in
the door and at the exact moment Of
fusing withdrew the metal. This had
to be at just the right moment or the
job was ruined.
The fused block was then pressed
out, between heavy rollers, to the
exact thickness desired, giving sheet
of metal, copper in the center and
silver on either side.
The artist then engraved his de-
signs, many Of them exquisitely beau
tiful, on the silver coating and the
edges were covered with other silver
to hide the copper layer.
Sheffield ware had been less expen-
sive than solid silver up to about
1850, but reduction in the cost Of
silver at that time made it cheaper
to use the pure metal than to follow
the expensive process of making Shelf
field ware. Also, about that time, the
much easier and far less expensive
electro-plating process was developed
to where it was practical.
