In its purest form, marble is white. Different impurities often give it shades of pink, red, yellow, or brown, or form wavy lines or patches in it. Different colored crystals caught in the marble sparkle and flash in the sun's rays. In some marble the remains of fossils add to its beauty. Many other kind of rock that take on a high polish and are used in building, such as granite, onyx, and porphyry, are often called marble. Real marble, however, is limestone that has been crystallized by nature's progress. When marble is quarried a machine called a "channeler" cuts a series of channels or slots in the face of the rock. Some of these slots may
be 8 to 12 feet deep and run from 60 to 80 feet in length. Blasting cannot be used because it would damage or shatter the marble. The blocks are lifted out carefully by large derricks. A great toothless saw is set to work on the rough stone, while a stream of water containing sand is kept running over it. The friction of the steel blade and the sand soon cuts the marble into the desired sizes. Sometimes a wire saw is used instead of a solid blade.

Mercury is the only metal that keeps its liquid form at normal temperatures. It is possible to
pour mercury from one vessel to another in exactly the same way that is it possible to pour
water. Because of this, people for a long time were not certain that mercury was a true metal.
The silver-white substance was known lo the ancient Chinese and Hindus. It has been found
in Egyptian tombs dating back to 1500 B.C. One ancient Greek writer described the metal as
"liquid silver", and even today it is often called quicksilver. Mercury is a very valuable
metal. It is used widely in the making of many useful drugs and medicines. Large amounts of
mercury are also used in mixing paints, in making explosives, and in manufacturing electrical
and scientific apparatus. Mercury is perhaps most commonly used known for its use in
thermometers. It is the substance that expands or contracts according to changes in
temperature. Occasionally mercury is found in free state among rocks. More often, however,
it is found mixed with sulphur in a beautiful red ore called cinnabar.
