Result of Decisive Tests Conducted
in the English Laboratory.
The department of mechanics in
the English Magazine has the follow

Fights of an inch downward-has al

with engineers. For various reasons
chains of this character are not often
found to have q strength commensur-
ate with the size and tensile strength
of the metal from which they are
made. Very large quantities of such
chains are, however, made and used
annually for hanging horizontal runs
of steam pipes and divers other
purposes in the mechanical. arts.
Hence any reliable tests are Important
that serve to show how small chains

that of 0. 26 inch diameter sustained an

quarrel with God for soaring him
with dreams and terrifying HIM

that he loalhed life. lie did not
fret and grumble like a sorehead-
ed politician, or disappointed of

they came, calmly and quietly, un.
sustained by, and perhaps a
stranger to, that grace which held
old Job within bounds. Job
grumbled until grumbling seemed

stitutional with him. And, in all
