Although food was generally lower,
several important staples resisted the

it). And lastly it presents a frock
with love interest for a Modern

to the movies.
Ideal for Home.
Sew-Your-Own always has had
a soft spot in its heart for the
Lady of the Fireside, she who
cooks and bakes and sews and
keeps everything right. Today's
house frock for her (above left) is
as neat and sweet as anyone could
wish. The collar is in contrast,
the saw tooth edging piped to
match. Of course, it's easy to rum
up and practically no trouble at
all to 1aunder. Better make two!

Wood Long il Use, but Forever Doomed
by Other Materials; Charcoal Replaced

when the other elements Of wood
are driven off by intense heat. Car
bon is an excellent reducing agent,
which means that it can readily
combine, when hot enough, with the
oxygen Of metallic ores to form gas
eous carbon oxides. thereby leaving
the metal in a free state. At one
time practically all the iron pro-
duced was done so with the help Of
charcoal. Now coke has taken its
place almost completely.
Almost simultaneous with the de-
cline of the metallurgicaI applica-
tion Of charcoal has been the devel-
opment of another important use,
although one more limited in vol
ume. Carbon has an unusual ability
to absorb organic matter on its sur
face. The porous nature Of wood
charcoal gives it a great amount Of
exposed surface, so that 1t possesses
this absorptive power to an unusual
extent.

They had eaten In silence. But
somehow in the interval since the

"I'm not so sure" said Old Man
Coffee.
''What kind Of a case have they
got?" Horse demanded. ''They cant

They're pretty liable to find it"
Old Man Coffee thought. "When
they find it, it'll be about all they

Wood has found a, wide variety
of uses as a raw material in the
past, but it seems forever doomed
to be replaced by something else,
writes DR.. Thomas M. Beck in the
Chicago Tribune. Twas the first
fuel that men burned, but now it
has been largely replaced by coal
and petroleum. The first houses
were made of wood, but now brick,
glass, concrete, and steel are grad
uaIly taking its place. The wooden
ships of a century ago have given
way to the iron ships Of today.
- So it has been in the chemical
industry, but with one important
difference. Wood has been the
source Of a number Of important
raw materials which have later
been produced more economically
from other sources. However, the
chemical Importance Of wood itself
has not declined, for new uses have
continually been discovered to take
the place Of the old ones.
For example, the first chemical
reagent to be made from wood prob
ably was charcoal. which is the
