That "necessity ta the mother of In fection" was never more forcibly made true than recently, when a submarine diver, clad in his under-water garb, jwas sent into the store of Hollis & Rich to put a stop to the leak of overpower ( Ing fumes of ammonia which were flll .lng the place, says the Boston Adver tiser. Shortly after 3 o'clock In the after noon the cap of the big tank which Is filled with the ammonia used In mak ing the freeelng mixture connected with the cold-storage plant blew off and the deadly fumes filled the cold storage plant and gradually made their way through the walls of the store It self and up through the elevator well so that the entire building was filled with them. The proprietors of the place were at their wits' end as to how to put a stop to the leak before their stock was dam aged. Somebody In the crowd that gathered suggested a deep-sea diving outfit and Mr. IIoIHs Jumped at the suggestion, and, running to a telephone, got a diving concern to send a man up at once prepared to make the most cu rious diving feat ever accomplished by any diver. Putting on his garb, the man entered the building where It seemed that no man could live. His assistant pumped fresh air to him and the diver worked away without great discomfort, fitting a new cap on the tank. He was Inside the building less than half an hour before he returned and told the people who waited for him outside that the task was accomplished and that In a few moments the build ing would be free of the fumes.

Hancock, just over the Lebanon Mountains, west of Plttstleld, on tbe New York State boundary, depends upon a hoot owl for its weather re ports. Every night the villagers listen for the owl, which roosts In the forests of John Taylor's farm. If thp owl gives a series of long, mournful hoots, rain is expected the next day; if sharp and clear are the hoots, the weather will be clear. The owl's forecast has never failed yet The owl is called Big Ben. Its mate was shot 15 years ago and now adorns the show window of Fran Hadwell's store. Robert J. Gillespie of New York, touring through Hancock the other night, listened to the owl tor ualf an hour. He says all Washlngtoa weather forecasts have been thrust aside in Hancock. Pittsfield (Mass.)

Ovrioaa Actios of tbe Metal Wkts Caat la Hold. The action of fluid cast iron in the mold Is somewhat curious. When poured into a mold in a state of fluid ity, cast iron, and especially what is known technically aa verp gray, ex pands at the moment of solidification, thus giving- a sharp impression in the mold. The expansion, slight but very noticeable, extends until In the process of cooling the iron attains the stage of red heat Contraction then takes place, ; with the result that the cooled iron is aoticeably smaller than the mold, says tne Philadelphia Record. Ia making patterns for iroa tastings, therefore, patternmakers commonly al low about an eighth of an Inch per foot for shrinkage. The shrinkage in cast lags, however, is by no means a con stant quality, but varies materially with the proportion existent in the pat tern and the character of the metal used as much as one-tenth of an inch per foot being allowed when casting beams and only one-thirty-second of an inch with large cylinders. v la casting, therefore, thinstrlps the shrinkage of the length Is very greet, while In the thickness it Is scarcely ap preciable. A square plate shrinks lit tle In thickness, but equally In width and breadth ; a flat disk shrinks little in thickness, but equally In diameter. A thin ring shrinks more In diameter than a thick one. When it is known that iron with different shrinkage from that generally employed Is to be used In a foundry the patterns are altered te meet the changed conditions. Silicon, unless In excessive quanti ties, gives a gray, soft Iron, which has the minimum shrinkage. In many cases a judicious mixture of iron will give the desired result without extra ex pense in patternmaklng. Charcoal iroa hrs usually a higher melting point than that ef leas pure Iroa made with coke. It sett more quickly In the mold and contracts more, so that an extra allow ance for shrinkage must be made in all patterns employed. It will be seea from the above that patternmakers re quire special technical skill as well as knowledge of the Iron to be used In casting for heir patterns. There are few employments which require greater specialized knowledge of rather a wide range than that of patternmaklng. i Wit of the Youngsters The Parson Well, Walter, what do rou want to be when you grow up?

"The other night we were celebrating In a quiet little way our anniversary by dining out and going to the theater.

Well, Mr. Baby had a notion he'd yelp for a change from his customary goodness.
