Read Secrets of Parchment. Much of the lore of ancient pallmp ? wests parchment manuscripts from which the original writing has been erased and ' written over at a later date ? is about to be laid bare by the j mysterious power of the uJtra violet | light produced by the mercury. vapor j lamps. Previous to 1914 the dlscov J erer of a new method of using the I rays, a Benedictine monk of the Bava ) rlati order, had made such progress | that many of the ancient paivhriients I In the Benedictine abbey of Weaso I briinn had been made to disclose their | secrets. - Iii principle the new method Is quite' simple, being based upon the peculiar ity. possessed by many organic sub stances, of fluorescing ? glowing with a pale canary -colored light ? when brought under tbe influence of the In visible ultra-violet rays. The old parchments possess this property to a remarkable degree, while the lrtk of the older writings upon them, contain ing Ingredients Insensible to the ac tion 1>f the rays, remains dark and forms a contrast of sufficient Intensity to register cJearly on a photographic plate. Old paintings, overlaid with new ones on the original canvas, l>av? also been discovered by this method. ? Popular Mechanics Magazine. Society P^ays Craps.

It Is Just at tbe moment the amusement par excellence of debutante New York ? that Is, at such times as there are no men about to make dancing elimi nate the fascination of the little Ivory cubes. Nearly every Jewelry store and novelty shop In town Is displaying sets of these cubes In silver and gold cases, fit for a place in any uiesh bag carried on the Avenue. And It has even been suggested by some flippant soul that with the present length of skirts worn by the girls in question artistically embroidered knee pads will have to come n^o.t. For no real crap player of the days when it whs confined to quiet alley corners would be without his pads to protect his knees wTi 1 1 o he knelt on the bard stones to "shoot." ? Pittsburgh Leader. Sewn Plywood. In England there has recently ap peared a special plywood material for aircraft construction. This material, we are told, must not be confounded with ordinary plywood, for it Is some thing infinitely superior. It Is a super plywood, so claims its manufacturer, which is actually sewn together. The layers are first cemented together with waterproof material and then stitched* through In parallel rows about 1*4 Inches apart. This gives a rigidity and resilience unattainable by any other method. Weight for weight, it Is the strongest material yet evolved. Tlin sheets are made to any desired size or shape up to 8 feet wide by AO feet long, and from one-eighth to five eighths inch thick, thus eliminating waste In the conversion. ? Scientific American.
