POPULAR SCIENCE. Mineral ie a. Made—Some of the Uses to Which It Is Put.

low

Of those who know what miaetal wool is, or silicate cotton, as it Is some- times called, probably only a small number are familiar with the simple nrocess by which it is made. The wool icself, serving a variety of useful pur- poses, as 2@ non-conducting covering against heat and cold alike, for steam pipes and cold storage room walls, as a sound “deadener” in floors of build- ings, and means of fireprooting among many others, is, as its name im- plics, a soft and woolly substance, con- tisting of a mass of very fine mineral libres interlacing one another in every direction, and thus forming an endiess uumber of countless air cells. The wool appears on the market in a va- tiety of colors, principally white, but often yellow or grey,.and occasionally suite dark, and is made by converting scorial and certain rocks while in a molten state into a fibrous condition by a sieam blast directed against the li- juid material. Blast furnace slag forms the raw material for one variety 1 the wool, and sandstone for anoth- er, yielding, respectively, slag wool ind rock wool, the latter being prefer- able for pipe covering because of the ubsence from itof sulphur, which, with moisture present, becomes an active corroding agent. The furnace slag or the rock, as the case may be, is melted in a large cupola, and as it trickles out at the tap hole in a somewhat sluggish stream, it meets a high-pressure steam jet which atomises the woollen mater- tal, if it may be so termed, blowing it in fleecy clouds into the storage room provided for it. Soft and downy, the stuff settles wherever a resting place affords itself, the heavier and easier wool coming down first, while the light- er portions are blown farther along by the force of the steam and settle in the more distant parts of the room, the material thus naturally grading itzelf into varieties of different quality. A thousand pounds of wool per hour are turned out by one of the cupolas, and after the storage room has been blown full the flocculent mass is pushed into bags, ready for the market. The whole process affords an admirable and in- teresting illustration of the utilization of an utterly waste product.

A Substitute foc Sole Leather.

The idea of substituting for sole leather, for use in manufaciuring shoes, anything else, either a, composi- tion or some new material, has prob- ably occurred to the minds of but few people. And yet for ten years past a Rochester man has been experimenting with a view to finding such a compos:i- tion. Heretofore he has devoted only odd moments to this work, but the re- cent strong advance in the price of sole leather has incited him to hasten the perfection of his composition, the suc- cess of which he has good reason to believe is already assured. He has al ready attained success to such an ex- tent that he can take a light sole made of this composition—light enough fo: any Goodyear welt—round it, channe!i it and prepare it for sewing. The com- position differs from leather in this respect that it can be worked dry, re quiring no moistening process before being worked into shoes. In appear- ance it resembles oak stock with the grain buffed off. It is elastic and wa- terproof. A piece of this composition taken from a pail of water while I was present, after having been submerged for severa lhours, showed not the slightest signs of its long bath and possessed the same consistency that it had before being subjécted to the test. The inventor claims for the com position better wearing qualities and greater durability than can be found in any leather manufactured. Until he has thoroughly compieted his work and brought it to a degree of perfection satisfactory to himself, he will not give it to the public or place it on the mar- ket. It may be said, however, that the ingredients which go to make up this composition are inexpensive.—Boot and Shoe Weekly.

Chemistry and Agriculture.

As the handmaiden of agricuture. chemistry, has achieved a wonderfu! success. Fertilizing the fields has no.

only become a well understood busi- ness, but is an exact science. There mre methods of recovering waste pro- ducts and utilizing heretofore useless matter. It is known what is required to produce the best potatoes and other crops, each one having supplied to it the chemical necessities of its exist- ence. Land, sea and the elements are taxed to furnish the constituents neces- sary to the best growth of vegetation. lt would have been a surprise to our ancestors had they been told that there are common plants which derive a very small portion of their subsistence from the soil, but are fed from the air and water; therefore, to understand the theories of drainage, rainfall, evapora- tion and absorption are matters of the

utmost moment. To nothing does ag- riculture owe such a debt as to science, for by its means the waste

places of the earth can be made pro- ductive and by the introduction of new chemical elements malarial and un- wholesome soils are made fertile and transformed into healthy and agreeabi dwelling places.

Glass Ey: s.

Aitchison, the greatest manufacturer and dealer in glass eyes In Europe, was recently interviewed. He says that England alone consumes some 59,009 glass eyes annually. A good English glass eye will last about a year, and costs $5. Glass eyes of French and Ger- man make are cheaper, but will nor stand wear as long as the English. The greatest destroyer of the glass eye is the salt contained in the tears; its caustic action upon the glass has up to this time baffled all human inven- tion. He says that there are some people who wear two glass eyes, but not in order to see—as the interviewer inadvertently asked—but to keep the lids better in place and in good condi- tion, and particularly in order to look more attractive.

DANGEROUS CONSOLATION.

All Right in a Day or Two, But the Day

Never Came. “All right in a day or two” is the thought that consoles every one who is suffering from any indisposition that does not pros- trate him. In the case of a per-on bed- ridden for months with disease of the Kid- neys being asked, “ Did you not have any warning of this condition you are now in?” “Yes, I was bothered at first with back- ache, with occasional headaches, but did not consider myself sick or the necessity of medicine further than a plaster on my back orrubbing with my favorite liniment. It was months before I began to realize that it was useless to further force myself to ignore my condition. The backache had become a pain in the back and sides, weak and tired feeling, high-colored urine with obstructions and stoppage, eae in the bladder, palpitation of the

eart, poor appetite, indigestion, and a dull, languid feeling, with entire lack of energy.” Had the first signal of distress from the Kidneys—Back-ache—received the assistance of Chase’s Kidney-Liver Pijls, the after state of misery and suffer- ing would have been avoided. A few doses dispel first symptoms; delay re- sults in liver, heart and stomach becom- ing affected. It is useless to expect to overcome this compiication without a persistent and regular use of Chase's K,. and L. Pills. Price 25c., sold by all dealers. Edmanson, Bates & Co.,Toronto.
