ttepsd as Ammonia Leavk that Ess
Jansrerext Llfo aad Property.
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

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.

Whenever a sore refuses to heal it Is because tie blood Is not pure and

usually afflicted with old sores are persons who have reached or passed mid
die life, The Titality of the blood aad strength of the system have naturally
begun to decline, and the poisonous gena3 which have accumulated because

Nothing Is more trying and disagreeable than a stuDborn, non-healinj sore.
The Tery fact that it resists ordinary remedies and treatments is good reason
