WHAT OIIPIIIIIIIIIOEIIIIITD Somebody Started Yarn That Philosopher's Stone Had Been Found in India SOOPIBOPIGOOVIDPIIOIOLLOVD STORY comes from England to the effect that a Br subject in India fo ind ing the war, the long- h philosopher's stone, and accomplish- ed the miracle of transmuting base metals into gold. As the story EROS, the British Government, fearing that this discovery would overturn Gov- ernments and destroy the existing gold standard of international ex- 'change, arrested the modern Merlin, court-martialed him on a tr umped-up charge of treason, and executed him. This preposterous yarn 18 believed by : many, according. le English | papers. Those that believe it also probably believe that Joan of Arc was not burned to death in the pyre at Rouepn, that Doc Cook discovered the North Pole, that Lord Kitchener did not go down to his death in the North Sea. The credulous, like the poor and the profiteers, are always with us. Even if the story were true, there would be nothing new in it Men have Goen killed before because they boasted of possessing the philoso- pher"s stone. Wasn't it Tiberius Cae- sar who dashed out the brains of an all-too-clever mechanic who de- clared that he had accomplished - the miracle of making malleable glass? Unbreakable glass has had a strange fascination for the inventors of 4ll ages It has been almost as great a desideratum as transmuting iron and pig lead into raw gold. Old Friar Bacon put the feat of making mal- leable glass in the forefront of the list of wonders to be accomplished by his great elixir, icler Harrison, who was interested in all things, and whom nothing escap- ed, comments thus upon the faseci- nating problem: "If the philosopher's stone were once found, and one part thereof mixed with forty parts of molten glass, it would indnce such a metallical toughness thereunto that a fall should nothing hurt it in such a mannery' So far the philosopher's stone has eluded the avaricious grasp of man, though time and time again has it been announced that somebody or other has discovered a process of transmuting the baser metals into precious ore. But in spite of these Tannouncements the tranquility our financial system remains undis- tarbed. And from time to time there are reports in the papers of the se- crets of malleable glass having at last been discovered. Only the other day a news despatch announced the discovery of a glass with this. 'me- tallical toughness." But I dare say that this grand desideratum is no nearer fulfillment than it was Friar Bacon's time or in Canon Har- rison's day. man who was shot in India for hav- ; ing found the philosopher's stone, 1 am inclined to believe that it was an | old, old story in the days when Cyrus |sircle of royalty.
