The life boat is magnificent con-

elevated air chambers filed with cork.
The keel is of iron and we CHS l,4OO

center of gravity below the surface when
filled with water. Bv this arrange ment,

will at once right itself, since it would
require great force TO keep the chambers

of six check valves. These valves serve
to close as many metal tubes which run
from the bottom of the boat through the
hold to its open space. They open only
one way, and permit the water to flow
downward but not upward. They act
automatically and will empty the boat IN
very short time.

for that purpose. This will be made by

form OF mighty
Ships capable of carrying the entire ton
mage of an ancient feet; with hundreds
of appliances for the prevention of dis
aster and for rescue in time of shlpwreck,
which we're not even dreamed OF CEN
tary ago; with all that human experience
has taught and human ingenuity devised
to lessen the perils of the sea, thousands
OF vessels are annually lost and multi
tudes of lives sacrificed to the relentless
fury of the deep.
Though the bottoms of broad oceans
are dotted with moldering heaps of
Norway pine and English oak, once float
ing in the form of majestic ships. it is
upon lonely reefs and desolate, rocky
coasts that the greatest number OF dis
asters occur.
From time immemorial, at many points
along the Atlantic coast, hardy fishermen
from rocky headlands have watched the
stormy sea for signs of ship in distress.
Their solicitude was not generally
prompted by desire to succor their i'm
periled fellow creatures, but rather to
profit by securing valuable property from
the impending wreck.
At present a more viglant watch is
kept, very largely by fishermen. Unlike
their ancestors, the wreckers, these men
are constantly keeping watch and ward
to the end that they may effect the rescue
of the crews and passengers of ship
wrecked and distressed vessels, coming,
through false reckoning or stress of
weather, upon the coast.
These men are members of the United
States Life Saving Service.
This service went into operation In

besides, and has more than once been
filled to its capacity.
There is a surf-boat of the same size,
but it is not a self Fighter and b 'ller. 1t
is provided with broad-tired wheels, and
can be drawn along the beach to the
DO ut where it it is desired to launch it.
A crew of seven men can pull this boat
six miles an hour, if not az ainst heavy
wind
When q wreck can be reached
by the life boat it is en-
ployed, and her passengers and
crew rowed to the shore. Sometimes,
however, owing to the extreme violence
of the storm, the disabled ship cam OF
ne reached. In such emerger eies recourse
is had to the life-car, boatswain s-char
or breeches- buoy.
The life-car is the invention of Captain
james Francis, who is still living in New
York 1T the advanced age of ninety years.
1t has been computed that since he de-
/ vised it in 1914 over one thousand lives
| have been saved by its use. In recogni-
/ tion of his great services Congress grant
/ ed him a medal worth, it is said, over
! S., 600.
| This car is in appearance small boat
! 1t has rings on its upper side by which II
is suspended to a rope reaching from the
wreck 20 the shore. People on the ship
enter it ard a,e drIwn ashore, and the
operation Is iepeated until all are res
cued. The DO 4tswain's chair is simply {
chair operated in the same way, carrying
one passenger at time. The hreeches
buoy consists of large circular ring
filed with cork. and in itself an admir-
able life-preseryer. To this ring wide
pair of strong canvas breeches are trml,
attached. Into these the person to b.
rescued thrusts his legs, and is rul
ashore on the rope, with little danger o
being dislodPed, no matter how furious
the storm. All these appliances arr
worked from the shore by means of ropei
connecting with pulleys on the wreck.
The method employed in getting lint

became disabled at Evanston and the
llie- saving crew. who are students of the
Nor nwestern University located near by,
brought the crew ashore on rope to
bluff seventy-fve feet above the level OF
the lake.
Many daring and notable rescues have
been effected by the Chicago crew. In
1884 there was disaster at the Glib, or
inlet to the water works at Hyde Park.
Captain st. Peter and crew went to their
assistance and succeeded in saving four,
though ten lives were lost. One, boy
of sixteen named Claus Clausen, drifted
on plank to South Chicago and was
picked up. He is at present a member of
the Chicago crew.
On March %, 1890, there was terrific
storm at Chicago. and thirty-one men
who we're working on the middle crib of
the new water tunnel, two and one-half
miles from shore, were placed in posi-
tion of extreme peril. A furious snow
storm was raging which precluded their
distress signals from being seen. A large
tug boat, which had been out in the lake to
dump distillery slops. report ed the matter
20 Capt. st. Peter. His crew had not yet
reported for duty. SO he collected six
daring fishermen and started for the crib.
With the greatest difficulty, and at the
expense of enormous labor, fourteen of
the almost frozen men were safely
rescued, and the contractors tug boat af-
terward carried off the rest.
As rule, the principal duties of the
Chicago crew are confined to the harbor.
Here, every season, great number OF
small Yachts and row. boats an overturned,

Owing to the inadequate compensation

The New York Times contains an
article upon old textbooks used in that
city. Among the most curious of these
was volume upon "Physicking,

for that time the function of the mod
