Machines Run by Air.

You've heard of machines foI
flying in the air, of course. But
now comes word of machines work
ell by air. These new engines are
used to drag heavy trains, empty
when going into, but filled with
broken stone when coming out of.
the great tunnel now being cut be,
tween Switzerland and Italy, under
Mount st. Gothard.
1t would be almost impossible to
keep the air fresh in the tunnel, SO
far underground, if steam engines
were used for cutting the rock; for
they would make SO much heat, gas
and smoke, that men could not
work in there at all.
But these new machines do bet
ter, for they are worked by air in
stead of steam, and the air that
escapes after being used in them is
good to breathe. 1t is common air,
but it was first forced by water
