MECHANICAL AND SCIENTIFIC.

In the course of an address recent
ly delivered before the American Pub
lie Health Association at Boston by
James T. Gardner, Director of the
New Y ork State Survey. the speaker
emphatically remarked: From the
united results of Typographical, geolog-
ical and sanitary surveys of large
area. l believe it possible to deduce,
with absolute certainty, the principal
causes of prevailing diseases, and to
point out practical remedies that will
reduce the death-rate one-half its pres
ent amount, and Danish from the world
an untold weight of suffering and sor-
row.
The disuse of quicksilver mirrors
may be regarded as great sanitary add
vantage. Ordinarily, mirrors have
been coated with tin-foil analgamated
with mercury; this mercury gradually
evaporates into the atmosphere of the
room, ard must De received, in intini-
tesimal quantities into the system,
and not without injury-at least, it is
known that the workmen who are en-
gagged in the manufacture of such mir
rors, suffer severely from the effects
of the mercury. In coating mirrors
with pure silver, the metallic substance
is first precipitated upon them-a coat
of LOO. 000th of an inch being sutfi-
cient. Metallic copper is then recip-
itated on this to strengthen it, and
varnish is applied to preserve the cop
per from oxidation. Y. sun.
An eminent engineering authority
says that, when railway tunnels with
out shafts are TO be ventilated. fans
should be employed to keep up an ar
tiheial ventilation; that for a given
amount of traffic, the power required
to ventilate long tunnels varies as the
fourth power of the length; that when
long tunnel is TO be ventilated. it is
more advantageous to have 3oHhle

What is termed French vegetable
leather-a material invented by NJ
VOneche, of Paris-has recently been
introduced in France and Germany
and is manufactured in the following
manner: A wadding of wool waste
or of wool itself, of uniform thick
ness, is laid upon hot polished zinc
plate, and concentrated decoction Of
pearl moss, or any similar material.
poured over it, and then it is pressed
down between two rollers which are
placed at distance between each
other corresponding with the intended
thickness of the leather; after being
rolled, it receives a coat of boiling
linseed oil, and is then dried; finally,
the dried sheet receives thin coating
of vegetable wax, and, in order to
render it supple, it is once more rolled
between hot chamfered rollers. In
order to produce an inexpensive sub
stltute for sole-leather, the Shiny de
coction is largely mixed with flock
wool, until thick pap is formed;
this latter is spread over zinc plates
and covered on each side with thin
layer of wool waste, then dried, and
afterward coated with boiling linseed
oil. The final process in the manufac-
ture consists in subjecting the mate
rial thus formed to a heavy pressure
between zinc plates in hydraulic
press, thus securing compactness and
strength.
