Water Wall Protects Firemen
Ample protection is afforded tin- fire

tion of an interesting type of nre-
nghting equipment. Ilio unit
mounted on a two-wheeled cart, so that
it can be brought up quickly to be
used against a fire at closo range. The
cart accommodates a fireman who sits
in it, and is able to handle a powerful
stream of water from a noizle directly
in front of him. A gueher pi is
mounted on tho cart behind him, which
sprays a curtain of water all around
him, so that a "safety wall" of water

Rat Trap
A miwhanlcal rat killer with a heavy
spring and a rotating doublo hauitrar
which strikes the animal on the head
and throws him from 5 to 8 feet, is the
latest in traps. This device auto
matically resets itself for the m-.t blow,
and two safety catches prevent acciden

at once and leaves no o lor to scare away

Drills Horizontal IIo'.cs
Straight
Anyone who has ever used a brace
and bit knows that in the drilling of
horizontal holes there is a great tend
ency to rmso or lower tho braco
trifle while drilling, Vhieh, of courso,
results in tho holo being drilled at an
angle. To overcome this tendency slip
a largo washer that is free from burrs
over the bit so that it rests on the
rmooth shank. As soon as the bit is
held at an anglo the washer will travel
one way or tho other, and the workman
can correct the fault instantly.
Bottled Fluid Can Lift Tons
Sinbad's genii flask has been out
done m real life by tho invention of an
expanding 6uid easily carried in steel
bottles by a child. The power may be
released by a valve and used with
jacks or other lifting devices to raise
street cars, autos, and heavy weights.
It is estimated that the power of tho
expanding fluid will raise 30,000
pounds in three seconds if properly
applied.
