4 Novel Device for Making Building,
Fire-Pr0Of.
From the American Artisan

Can a totally frc-proOf building be
made ? To believe that this is impos
sible would be greatly to depreciate the
mechanical and scientific resources of the
age. Fothng can burn till heated TO the
temperature at which it combines with
oxygen; the problem Of FIRE proofng viii
then be solved when We discover the
means by which the temperature Of CON
bustibles can be kept from reaching the
temperature Of combustion We can ap
ply the most intense heat to steam boilers
without burning them. Why? Because
each atom OF water they contain is swift
vehicle to seize and carry away heat. Let
us ulake up the partition of walls of build
ings in manner analogous to sectional
steamboilers, and no fire would be com
mrnicated from cue building to another
A thing SO evident should have attracted
the attention Of architects long before this.
Ia this way iron, which by itself is rot u
fire proofiug material, can, by the most
economical use Of water, be made to stand
the seVerest ordeal
The iron iDclosed water spaces need
not be more than one inch 10 thickness.
and need never be subjected to a
hydraulic pressure of more three or four
feet head. These walls can, therefore.
be made Of thin metal. They can be
supplied with water from the common
water service, or from tanks placed at the
tops Of buildings. To case Of fire. the
turning of single cock would supply
them with water, and the temperature o.
the partitions could never rise above 2l2
deg Fahrenheit till the water had all
boiled away. Iu this way, not tthe Of
the water now vainly used to extinguish
such fires as these of Chicago and Boston
would be needed to preserve the whole
city.
We feel certain that DO solid material
known to the arts is capable of withstand
ing the heat generated 10 these great fires
We must find something that heat will not
melt, or warp, or crack, and otherwise so
impervious to air that fire cannot com
muuicate with combustibles stored in
buildings, or We must expend the force
of the heat GA something We can afford
so waste economically. This something
Is water, and we think we have pointed
SIT the way to use it.

DON'T KILL TT.

we're the words Of poor half starved rag

one bitter cold night. Spare copper

Struck with the fellows manner and

the beggar answered with a mournlul
smile.
Try, man, try. Here's shilling to
sharpen your memory; only be sure you

The man pressed the coin tightly in
his hand aud after thinking for nearly a
minute, said

he hurried on.

best friend. Don't let him slip through
your fingers when you are young, as the
beggar did. The days of your boyhood
are the most precious you will ever see
The habits you form will stick to you like
wax. If they are good ones, life will be
pleasure and true success. You may
not grow rich, but your life will be a real
success nevertheless.
If, on the contrary, you waste your
early years, live for fun only, tride with
your opportunities, you will fnd after
while that your life is a failure-yes
even if you should be very rich.
