ton with this drain be such will prevent
the passage of the contaminated air of the
sewer or vault into the house, This is done
in two ways. First, the fixtures have
trapped or water sealed connection with the
drain. Second, the air in the drain has an
exit above the top of the house This Is done
by continuing the drain above the roof. This
is what is known as drain ventilation, All
drains with all fixtures should be ventilated
in this way.
The rs" trap referred To gets its name
from its form, which is illustrated 10y the
sketch. The drain water comes down through
the trap from above into the lower part of
the bend and then upwards and again down
wards and into the drain. Thus there Is a
certain amount of water always in this trap
This water s called the seal. The depth of
the seal is dependent upon the depth of the
bend in the trap. 1t will be seen that the air
would have 10 pass through the water 10 get

There are many conditions under which the

THE FISK RANGE FINDER.
AN INVENTION OF VALUE TO THE
UNITED STATES NAVY.

American Naval Success In Is1e-l4 Was
Due Solely to Superior Handling of the
Guns, and This Was Due to Close Esti-
mates OF Rauge-British Improvements.
Authorities are quite generally agreed
that in the war of 1912 the great
source of our success was undoubt-
cdly the superior management and
direction of our guns, and that the Eng
lish and other governments were salts
fled of this is sufficiently proved by the
careful attention they have since con-
tinued to bestow upon this branch of the
naval service. Not only must we have
well trained guns crews with good shots
as gun captains, but the officers must
perform their parts as well. The guns
must be completely under the control of
the officers and through them of the
captain; which means that to the speedy
service of the guns must be added the
correct placing of the sight bars, so that
no shot may be wasted.
The fire of guns at sea is a much more
difficult matter to deal with than their
fire on shore, the speed of the swiftest
target on shore, squadron of cavalry,
being nearly always exceeded ahoat
In finding the distance of a target, or the
range as it is called, it is customary to
feel the way to first approximation to
the correct range by firing as rapidly as
may be convenient succession OF single
shots, using the rapid fire guns for this
purpose, as their range is generally suf-
ticient, and the waste of ammunition is

Something That Is by Many Regarded rs
Necessary Evil.
BY great many people plumbing work Is
regarded as IA necessary evil. As TO its being
necessary for comfortable and economical
living there can be no doubt, AS to its being
an evil, that depends There is no reason
why all plumbing work should not be safe
from a sanitary standpoint. There is no rea-

be laid out and executed in way to be en-

There are II few principles which one needs
to consider in order to bring about the re,
suits above outlined. All plumbing work is

drains are the fixtures, such as kitchen sinks,
