A Denver man has invented q dc.
vice, by the use of which q fireman
may venture into the dcnscst smoke
and be assured all the time of a sup
ply of fresh air. The device is based
on the discovery that a column of
water four inches or less in diameter
will, when suddenly reduced to about
0ne-third that size at the nozzel of
a pipe. gather with it at that point
large quantities of air. Two pipes
lead from the nozzel of the fireman's
pipe to n rubber mask enveloping the
face. Through n passes the fresh
air, while the other is used for exhal-
ing the air after it has been breathcd.
If the device works there should be a
provision for supplying it. not only
TO fireman, but to the inmates of such
places as the insane asylum at Pontiac
and the surgical institute at Indian
apolis.

Metal OF the FIXTURE.

Within q few years science has
made vast strides in developing the
latent possibilities of the worlds
metals. Nickel has been combined
with steel in the production of an
arn,or plating which is proof against
the most powerful projectiles. The
use of phosphor-bronzc. iridium and
PLATINUM la: grown enormously.
There are w~ell-grounieti hopes for a
cheaper process of extracting tin
from the ore. and, ii it be perfected,
the United States will hr in condition
TO compete with the Straits OF Ma
lacca, which now produce two-thirls
of the worlds tin supply. Electricity
has already been utilized i'll the ex-
traction of iron from the lower grades
of ore. and il is inevitable that scien-
tiiic effort will still further advance
almost every branch of manufacture
ing as well as the metal productions
which enter so largely into them.
But of all these a~dvancencntS none
is probably of greater importance
than that achieved in the production
OF aluminium. Only 4 few years ago
this metal was greatly restricted in
use because of the price. which ruled
at about 81 per pound. When it was
brought to ninety cents the demand
W IS largely increased and il WAS gen
erllly substituted for silver in the
production of certain articles where

market at i~hirty-iiye cents per pound
and it is aut~horitatiycly announced
that another material reduction will
be made in the lear future.
TO those vino know and appreciate
the qualities of this metal. there are
many suggestions made by the pros
pect of its general use. It's iustrous

hardness. and above all its incOm-
parable ductility. mark ii as The metal
