The bank cannot get into this safe and will probably have to borrow funds until the safe can be opened.

Recent experiments of this phenomenon show that the property is shared by other solid substances, while still others do not possess it at all.

Prof. Dewar has investigated it by means of hydraulic press, with which he attempted to force various substances through a narrow orifice. Crystalline sodium sulphate, sal ammoniac, graphite urea and many other solids were found to flew easily under a pressure of thirty to forty tons per square inch, while starch, common salt and others re fused to How under a pressure of sixty tons to the square inch.

The announcement was at once published in all the leading pa Pic, nueii uie applications came pouring in from every state in the Union.

With a large number of clerks and stenographers to assist him, the doctor actually directs the treatment of thousands of cases by correspondence, which costs the patients nothing, except the neces sary medicines, which are obtained at the nearest drug store.
