NICKEL AND ITS USES.

The Many Advantages OF an Alloy of
Nickel and steel.
For q long time natures hints were
neglected or disregarded, but in 1888
patents were taken out in England and
France by different individuals for the
preparation of nickel steel, says the
Popular Science Monthly.
Tests of this alloy have been made by
competent authorities and the effect of
the addition of small percentages of
nickel to steel is seen in greatly re-
duced tendency to oxidization and in
creased strength. AS an example of the
superiority of this nickel steel the fol-
lowing results of one of the tests may
be given: A steel containing four and
Seven-tenths per cent. Of nickel
showed an ultimate strength of thirty
per cent. and elastic limit of sixty to
seventy per cent. higher than those of
mild steel, with nearly equal ductility,
and the valuable quality added of less
liability to cOrrosion." The authority
who obtained these remarkable results
adds: ''Think for moment of this in
connection with the erection of the
Forth bridge or of the Eiffel tower. If
the engineers of those stupendous
structures had had at their disposal a
metal of forty tons strength and TWEEN
ty-eight tons elastic limit instead Of
thirty tons strength and seventeen tons
elastic limit in the one case, and say
twenty-five tons strength and fourteen
to sixteen tons elastic limit in the
other, how many difficulties would have
been reduced in magnitude as the
weight of materials was reduced! The
Forth bridge would have become even
moro light and airy and the tower
more netlike and graceful than they
are at present" And Sir Frederick
Abel, in his presidential address at the
Leeds meeting of the British associa-
ton, remarked: sit has been shown
by Riley that particular variety of
nickel steel presents to the engineer
the means of nearly doubling boiler
pressures without increasing weight or
dimensions"

A Medical Fathers Fad.

The Baltimore American says that
the indignation of the passengers on a
Western Maryland train was aroused
the other day by the unusual spectacle
of q richly clad boy of five or six years,
whose legs and feet were perfectly
bare. although the day was cold one
The child was accompanied by his
mother and sister, who were evidently
people of wealth and refinement. On
inquiry it was learned that the boy was
the son of prominent physician, who
had lost several children with throat
diseases, until he hit ON the idea of
turning his children out barefootcd.
The experiment proved to be u perfect
success The barefooted boy was the
picture of health. At the union station
in Baltimore he ran around on the cold
bricks totally unaware Of any discom-
fort. People are constantly shocked
and amazed at seeing the children Of
this gentleman going about barefooted,
winter and summer, but inasmuch as it
saves their lives, in his opinion, he is in
different to criticism.
