GENTLEMEN: In reply to your inquiry
about the heater you put in the house
which | occupy, j would say that can
not see how it could be improved It
seems to me as entirely satisfactory as
anything that involves coal bills can be
made, and even the coal bills are certainly
made less by using your heater. The
house is particularly hard one to heat,
standing as it does with its broad side to
the northwest, ready to catch all the De
cember zephyrs as they sweep across the
Brandywine. Nevertheless, during the
coolest weather have been able to keep
the house comfortable without running
the heater up to its full capacity. 1t is,
moreover. the simplest and easiest
managed heater that any one could wish.
In moderate weather it can easily be made
to keep the house comfortable by attend
ing morning and evening, and. perhaps
throwing on a little coal at noon. It viii
stand almost any amount Of stupidity and
mismanagment. Only one of all the
servants we have had was able to do any
thing worse than put the fire out or over
heat the house. That one did manage ia
burn out the CRATE; but she was a very
uncommon girl.
can most cordially recommend all who
value comfortable house and compare
tive peace of mind to use your heater
and wish you great success in your wori
Of making people happy by introducing
it. Very truly yours,

TO the bottom Of the sea with the English
sloop- of-war De Braak, wrecked May
%. 1898, about a mile of the Lewes
Del lighthouse The steamer Is now
anchored over a mound one hundred feet
long, forty feet wide and five feet long
under which, IL is thought, the English
treasure laden cruiser lies buried. A
large wrec5ing pump capable Of dis
charging eight or ten tons OF solid matter
per hour, is AZ work under the direction
Of submarine divers The air for the
divers is forced into q receiving tank
with pressure Of sixty pounds to the
square inch. The water and sand pumped
up fan upon SCREEN which allows
nothing larger than q pea Go pass
through An the solid matter is care
fully examined and the refuse thrown
into the sea- The tide Is SO swift
that the matter thrown over is carried
away from the mound The strength Of
the tide is useful in this respect, but il
limits the work Of the divers TO three
hours a day. The presence of yerdigfis
IN the sand is hailed as hopeful sign, in
view Of the fact that the sunken vessel
was coppered above the water line aud
had seventy tons of copper ON board.
