IVORY MADE FROM MILK.

One o* tHe Latest Achisvsmsnta ef
SyntHet>c Chemistry.
Synthetic chemistry Is working won
ders In msny fields, and one of the
latest discoveries by its experts is bow
to make Ivory out of nothing more
wonderful than cow's milk? and very
good Ivory at that, according to all
accounts. The original klea was to
use the new "Ivory" for piano and or
gan keys because It preserves Its origi
nal color Indefinitely, whereas the genu
ine article turna yellow after a time.
But It has been found that the new
product Is not only an efficient snbatl- '
tute for Ivory, but can easily be pre
pared so as to take the place of amber,
horn, coral, celluloid and such like
products and. it Is claimed, can hardly
t<e distinguished from them.
It Is In Its position ss s substitute
for Ivory that the new material has
caused most surprise, however, be- 1
canse It has the appearance of being
another Instance of Improving upon '
nature. The new Ivory takea a very
high and lasting polish and probably
win not lack a commercial field for j
Itself, as natural Ivory contlnuea to
grow scarcer and dearer year by year.
