The mineral zircon, a silicate of zir
conium, Is probably most familiar as
a gem stone, and when so used Is
known as hyacinth, jacinth, Jargon, or
Matara diamond.
Zirconium minerals are used chiefly as
refractory muterlal, which melts only
at an extremely high temperature and
is very resistant to the action of fluxes
and slags. Zirconium fire brick prom
ises to be extensively used. The fused
oxide of zirconium expands so little on
being heated thnt crucibles, mulTlos,
combustion tubes, and similar articles
made of It are not broken by suddoD
changes of temperature.
Several alloys of zirconium have un
usual properties. A zirconium steel is
nald to be particularly suited for mak
ing armor plates, nrmor-plerclng pro
jectiles, and bullet-proof metal ; a new
patented alloy of zirconium with nick
el, called cooperlte, Is extremely hard
find Is particularly well adapted for
making cutting tools.

Tying the Nuptial Knot
In some parts of the world the nup
tial knot Is literally as well as figura
tively tied. This Is In India, at the
marriage of a Brahmin. No sooner
has the father, In word as plain as
can be, given the bride away than the
bridegroom places the "tall," or Insig
nia of marriage, consisting of a piece
of ribbon with n gold bead suspended
upon It, around her neck nnd ties the
knot. Ilefori the knot Is tied the
bride's father mny refuse consent tin'
less better terms nre offered, but Itiv
mediately the knot Is tied tho mar
riage Is Indissoluble, for the Hrahmlns
do not recognize divorce. The Par
sees bind the hands of the bridegroom
wlih n sevenfold cord, seven being a
sacred number. The ancient Oartlni'
gliilun tied the thumbs of the betroth
ed with leather lace. With the Lat
Ins, on the contrary, part of the cere
mony was for the bridegroom to loosen
(solvere) the bride' girdle (nodu her-
CUleUs). not to tie It. h
