Wonders Of Coal Tar Emphasized In the June American Magazine Al bert W. Atwood said: "Although modern high explosives require vast quantities of nitric ncid, sulphuric acid and alcohol, the basic ingredient of most of these is a deriva tive of coal tar, which in turn is a by product of coke burning. Here has the industry with all its branches nnd ramifications which perhaps more than any other in the country has been ex panded by the war In coal tar we have the imprisoned sunshine of mil ioins of years, and when that prehist oric brilliance is released by one set or stage of process we have mo.lern dye stuffs. Still other 'proceses and we have napthaline, (enmphof balls) nnd many modern drugs such as aspirin; while the photographic, phonographic, and many other industries dcpttixl more or less upon ft.

Keep your shoes shmed. "If you cjn afford several suits chmifre off from ona suit to another frequently and keep nil of them spot less and well pressed.

A Scientist's Plea For Early Marriage In the Juns American Magazine Dr. Alexander Grahar.i Bell, inventor of the telephonffe and now investigating the causes of old age makes the fol loving plea for early marriage: "My investigation has convinced me that the opposition to early marriages is a very unwis2thing, so far as long evity is concerned;1' bo declare?.
