Sulphur Is bolng tried In Germany
as n wood preservative, u Is applied
lu molten form and as It hardens It
completely fills tho pores. At moder
ate temperatures It Is unaffected by
wntor, weak or strong acids, or alka
lino solutions. A disadvantage Is that
tlio sulphur melts nt 115 degrees F anil
this makes tho treated wood unfit for
plnccs exposed to cotwldcrablo hent.
Tho best wood for uso with this pro
cess Is poplar, tho trials of oak and
plno having been much less satisfactory.
A larpo steamship has recently been

between Hamburg and Kiel with a mo

gus-propelled boat consumed S30 pounds
of anthracite, as against 1,820 pounds
of steam coul consumed by a steamboat
of practically the same dimensions and
junking tho same speed. Giia-eii'glncs

Many precious stones aro Influenced
by the action of tho rays emanating
from radium. A scientist exposed a
colorless diamond from IJorneo to Uiet-e
rays. Tho stone was colored a light
yellow after eight days and a decided
lemon yellow after another eight days.
On heating tho diamond to 250 degrees
centigrade (482 degrees Fahrenheit)
Uio yellow color was diminished, but it
could not bo entirely got rid of even
at a red heat A colorlcw Drazll dia
mond showed no coloration. A peculiar
behavior was shown by a pale blue
sapphire from Ceylon. After two houw'
exposure to radium bromldo It showed
a coloration, green at first, then light
yellow nnd after a fow more hours red
dish yellow. After a fortnight It was a
dark yellow, approaching chestnut
Tho color could bo got rid of by heat

was held. A black bean meant a voto

would mean longer Imprisonment for
them and perhaps a gravo ou tho hill

A hypothesis that the sense of colors
la possessed to a high degree by animals
and especially by birds furnished a
basis for some of the most beautiful
and fecund of the Darwinian theories
of sexual selection. No Darwinist
doubts that the brilliant colors of mala
birds are to attract tbe attention of the
female birds, and this presupposes nat
urally on the part of these birds a fine
sense of color.
Wallace has asserted that to the fact
that certain plants boar fruit of bril
liant colors is due their preservation;
tho animals, attracted by these colors,
break the fruits from the trees or
plants, carry them off and thus Indirect
ly assist In Iho dissemination of the
seeds which they contain over large
tracts of land. And this function of
selection on the part of animals pre
supposes In them a certain sense of
color. Still, scientific documents la sup
port of these hypotheses are rare.
Dahl, alluding to the scarcity of them
In an article In a recent number of the
Naturwlssenshaftllche Wockenschlft re
lates some Interesting experiments
which he made with a monkey. He col
ored some sweets with a certain colored
dye and some bitter substances with
that of another color and declares that
after a few attempts the monkey learn
ed to leave without even tasting these
articles of food colored with the dye
-which Indicated bitter-tasting sub
stances and seized at onqe upon those
which Indicated sweets.
Varying the experiments sufficiently,
he found that the monkey distinguished
all the different colors readily save
only dark blue., Dabl calls attention to
tho fact that Mayer has stated that
many savage tribes cannot distinguish
dark blue from black and that even
children do not distinguish this color
until later than all others. Scientific

The first steel castings made In this
country were railroad-crossing frogs,
mtde In 1807 from crucible steel of
about the same hardness as tool ateel,
with .a smooth surface, but honey
combed throughout and far from per
fect Tbe improved Bessemer processes
were not In successful use until fifteen
or twenty years later.
Now almost any shape which can be
in gray or malleable iron can be made
In cast steel. For large and small
marine castings, and In car and loco
motive work, cast ateel Is taking the
place of cast, malleable, and wrought
Iron, for many large and small parts
from couplers, Journal boxes and
