Taper gas pj pes are made by passing an endless strip of hemp paper, the width of which equals the length Of the tube, through bath ot melted asphalt, and then rolling it tightly and smoothly on q core, to give the required diameter. When the number of layers thu= rolled IS sufficient to aff lrd the desired thick ness the tube Is strongly compressed. the outside sprinkled aith fine sand, and the whole cooled in water. When cold, the core is drawn ont, and the inside served with water-proofing compost ton. In addition to being abs luiely tight and smooth, and much cheaper than iron, these pipes have great length; for when the sides are scarcely three
 fifths of an inch thick they will with stand pressure of more than fiftern atmospheres. IT buIied underground they will not be broken by settlement, nor when violently shaken or jared. The material being a bad conductor of heat. the pipes do not readily freeze.
