Little Is wnstcd In the Industrial
world. Men of science are ever nt
work tearing by-products unil waste
material to pieces, to regroup the ele
ments Into new material which has a
commercial or Industrial value.
Old Iron Is worked over Into new
Iron. Linen rags are relnclnerated and
llvu as paper. Woolen rugs are shred
ded and made Into shoddy. Hones are
made Into bono black, to clarify sugar
syrup. Old rubbers, bits of garden
hose, exploded bicycle tires and nuy
castorfs In which rubber Is a part are
made over Into now rubber. Worn
Btcol mils are rorolled Into lighter sec
tions. Old rusty pipe Is drawn down
Into bright new pipe. The tin cans
which are gathered up In alleys nnd
from garbage boxes are melted down
and cast Into window sash weights and
counter weights for bridges.
Kims ami old camels are cut Into
Dtrlps mid woven Into handsome rugs.
The list of old castoff things that are
rescued from ash piles nnd garbage
dumps to be born again can lc ex
pended for columns, and the list would
never cease growing, for every day
some now use fur some wasted product
Is discovered.
There was a time when tons of blood,
fresh from slaughtered cattle, Mowed
unheeded through the sewers under
the stockyards In Chicago. To-day this
blood Is saved, put through several
processes and comes out us a fertilizer
or In the form of cakes, which are sent
to sugar rellnerles to assist In clarify
ing the sweet Ihiuor. Somo of the
handsome buttons worn on new dresses
once ran as warm blood through tho
veins of fat steers.
Heat and hydraulic pressure are tho
agents which separate the water from
the albumen In the rod llulil, and pre
pare the dried blood for the pulverizing
process which Ills It for use as a fertil
izer. After being boiled down, pressed,
crushed ami ground to a powder, tho
dried blood Is .mixed with potash and
phosphoric nchl and sent out as a com
plete fertilizer.
Shoddy Is a useful product of wnsto
material. It Is never used alone, but In
combination with new wools. The wool
en rags from which shoddy Is made
are llrst thoroughly dusted by machin
ery before they are sorted. Any cot
ton which may be In the rags In got rid
of by dipping the rags In a boiling
mixture of sulphuric nchl.
Long experience has demonstrated
the exact proportion of the nchl re
(julred to eat out the cotton libers with
out destroying the wool. The effect of
dipping the tags Info the water and
nchl Is to rot tho cotton so that the
woolen part of the fabric falls to pieces
easily. After being dried the rags are
I tut through it machine that removes
every bit of dust, leaving the pure,
clean wool. Tho woolen rags and cloth
nro dyed, mid then run through a ma
chine whose thousands of steel plus
not only shred the rags, but split the
threads so that the rags which outer
the machine leave It In tho form of
wool libers.
The woof Is put through a carding
machine, which ...orotighly- combs out
the woolen particles, mixes them and
turns them out In the form of long
Huffy rolls, which are packed In bales
ready to bo shipped to tho woolen mills,
where the shoddy Is mixed with new
wool.
While woolen rags are sent to tho
shoddy mills, linen rags naturally
start from the ragman's storeroom to
the paper mill, whence they Issue us
tine linen paper.
Tho "old Iron" which forms half tho
burden of the ragman's song Is the
basis of a business whose output Is
valued annually In millions of dollars.
Every piece of old Iron, wrought or
east, rusty or clean, can be utilized.
The old east Iron Is sent to foundries
mid puddling furnaces, the old wrought
Iron, bars, sheets and plates, Is sent
to the rolling mills. Cast Iron sent to
foundries Is remelted with pig Iron, and
begins a new life of usefulness under
new forms mid shapes. The wrought
Iron goes to tho hcrap plies In rolling
mill yards.
A profitable business has been found
In the redrawing of old Iron plpo and
boiler tubes. Most of this waste ma
terial Is thickly covered with rust when
It arrives at tho factory, nnd the rust
Is removed by tho simple process of
heating the old pipe to it cherry red
and plunging It Into water. The sudden
contraction loosens the rust scales, ami
tho pipe Is (.cut to tho hentlng furnace
clean and bright. A good welding heat
prepares the plpo for tho redrawing
process This consists In pulling tho
white hot pipe through a die, which not
only reduces Its diameter but tpakes
It solid. It Is heated again ami drawn
through a smaller die, and the process
Is continued until tho plpo Is down' to
the required diameter. Then tho new
pipe Is straightened and Is ready for
the market. v
It was not so many years ago that
the coal tar which Is. produced In thu
manufacture of gas was regarded us n
was(e product, and something of iv, nu
Milieu at that. Hut the chemists and
experimentalists got hold of tho stuff,
and their manipulation has uuido of It
an exceedingly valuable by-product.
This ami tar Is a marvelous material.
From It come beautiful dyes, sleep

On June 30, 1520, Hernandei Cortes, tiering with hli troopi from the City of
Mexico along the old Aztec cauicwny uf Tlacopan, passing the ipot known to
this day as "The Loop of Alrarado, (Pedro Alrnrado, one of Cortes' captains
having there snved his life by his agility), crossing numerous waterways, losing
In bin mad flight the priceless jewels ami treasures of gold and sliver confiscated
from the natives, arrived about inldmslit at tho village of I'opotlo, situated
seven miles northwest of Mexico, where he hid at the foot of the giant cypress,
the "Arbol dp la Noche Trlirtc" (tree of the dismal night), passing tho hours In
weeping. This tree Is umiuestlonahly the eldest living historical landmark on
the American continent. Notwithstanding the march of civilization has changed
materially all ancient conditions about the "Noche Trlste," nearly 400 years liar
lug elapsed since that memorable night, wo hcur to-day the same tongue spoken,
see the descendants of the same people pasting to and fro In their picturesque
garb or resting beenath the shade ef It spreading branches, as did thn great
conqueror In those early days of conquest. Standing, grand, sublime, In Its
gnarled strength, the "Noche Trlste" Is on Imposing historical object. Who can
foretell the future races destined to avail themselves of Its protecting arms;
who write the history of tkelr achievements on life's Immortal scroll?

strnycrs, and saccharin, tho sweetest
substance known.
Tho t scores of chemicals obtnlned
from coal tar aro produced through a
process of distillation which Is almost
perfection. For Instnnce, when the tar,
after tho tar water strong In ammonia
has been drained off, Is heated In n
tank that serves as a still to a moder
ate temperature, say 105 degrees, ben
zine Is produced. When 100 more de
grees of temperature have been added,
other light oils appear, ami then comes
tho carbolic oil from which carbolic
add Is made. Creosoto Is gjven off at
a little higher temperature, and then
comes anthracite oil, the "raw mate
rial" of many products.
Some of tho well known drugs which
nro secured from tho several distilla
tions of coal tar aro autlpyrlue, phena
cetlne, sulphonal, nntlfobrln and nee
taullald. Saccharin, which Is almost
JIM times sweeter than enno sugar, Is a
tar product.
Colors and dyes of every tint and
lino aro made from this ouo-tluie waste
product. Aniline, one of the best known
of tho tar products, was discovered as
far back as 1858, and when It was
learned that from aniline beautiful col
ors could bo made a new world of In
vestigation was opened to chemists,
and slnco then every color that can
bo produced by vegetable or animal
matter has been made from coal tar.
TOURING BY LABELS.
llntcrprlnliiir l'lillutlctplilnii Covers

In Philadelphia an enterprising indi
vidual llmla a brisk tradu In furnishing
labels for travelers' trunks and valises,
so that when it piece of baggage Is
finally turned out of his shop Its owner
has apparently Indisputable document
ary evidence that ho has toured tho
world or sucji part of It as, may hnvo
seemed lit. Tho convenience of this
method of travel, It will be seen at u
glance, tits In very well with the Amer
ican Idea of saving time, while as for
money It of course saves largo lumps.
Thus you can go out and hldo In tho
country somowhero' at ?5 a week until
tho proper time and then reach town
In travel-stained clothes, coincident
with the arrival of' somo steamship,
with a trunk pasted all over with la
bels showing where you have been.
Tho trunks will bo marked "Hotel"
nnd the smallor pieces of baggage by
this time you will be calling It "lug
gage" will be marked "Cabin," And
us you gaze on these labels you will of
course become reminiscent of the little
Swiss hotel (see that label down In the
corner!) where you met the I'rlnce Se
and-So; the l, and O. steamer, where
you encountered tho British nobleman
who turned out to bo n dUtnut connec
tion; the hotel In Egypt see any guide
book where you met tho swell Ameri
can girl troni Oshkosh, Wis., and so
forth and so forth ud libitum, accord
ing to your Imagination.
Whllo cheap enough, however, this
method of travel Is not without somo
slight espouse. The labels must bo
well paid for, because tho labeler will
tell you that all his wares aro genuine
and It U no easy thing to get such little
pieces of printing from fai-tiwny ho
tels, railroad stations and steamboat
otttces, aud you see at ouce that he is
right.
Indeed, if you have any of tho so
phistication that travel ought to grvo
you, you will suspect that many of tho
labels offered you aro made on tho spot
and you have on uncomfortable feel
ing In being pasted for nn entlro route
that somo of tho hotels named on tho
labels do not exist or that their loca
tions may hnvo got mixed In n way to
confound you somo (lino when you mny
bo at tho very best point In your rem
Inlhceuces. This suspicion Is rather In
creased, says tho Philadelphia Times,
by the curious fact that a tour of Cuba
coat more than n less popular tour of
tho samo extent In Europe, nnd you
wonder If It Is not because tho Cuban
labels nro too well-known to bo bogus.

Men Should Hat Oreator Variety of
Food.
Let It not be assumed that the short
ness of tho meat supply nnd tho high
price of steak Is an unmitigated evil.
On the contrary, It Is n probable bless
ing. If meat could be raised to a prlco
thnt would make It prohibitory It might
still be of good result, because It would
teach those who depend entirely upon
It to widen their dietary and learn to
enjoy many good things of which they
aro now Ignorant.
To many, especially In tho cities,
there are only three foods meat, pota
toes mid bread. Tho weary monotony
of this program, tho unsntlslled long
ings for a widening of It, nffect tho
appetite and surely affect spirits and'
temper. 'The laborer goes to Ills work
tilled with meat, potatoes and bread.
At noon ho tluds cold meat aud bread
In his dinner pall aud nt night ho Is
confronted by meat pud potatoes, some
times separate, sometimes combined
Into a greasy stew, sometimes chopped
Into hash. This kind of thing tills
him, but In a tluer sense It can hardly
be said tQ,,fccd him. Physicians hnvo
discovered that a limited and unchaug
lug diet lowers vitality and health.
At such n time ns this, there Is a
chance to tlud what things tho world
contains which nro at least as digest!
bio ns beef. There Is a wide range of
sen food, farinaceous products can bo
served In u hundred forms, as well ns
bread, and ns to vegetables, how sel
dom does the housekeeper give a trial
tO 1110111.
'A'hearty nnd sustaining inenl can bo
'niildo from a vegetnble sotip", followed
b'y potatoes, onions, turnips, parsnips,
egg plant, with two or threo kinds of
bread; then by asparagus, spinach or
dandelion, nfterward by a fresh nnd
cooling salad, as of lettuce, cucumbers
or tomatoes; then by cheese, pudding,
fruit and coffee.
Meat eating Is largely a habit, says
the Brooklyn Kagle, nnd to some per
sons It Is n habit acquired with diffi
culty. 'If to vegetables, fruit nnd con
structlous made of flour and sugar nro
added eggs, butter, cheese and milk, a
range of diet becomes possible that
makes ouo ludepeudeut of aulmal food.
It cau do no harm to those who con
blder themselves the gnhiers In health,
as well us In pocket.
