and planks, then in the exterior Enclosure.
In summer spring water from the mountains
is forced through under pressure: 1T cools the
interior walls, becomes warm little by little,
and then passes into the exterior part where
the temperature rises still more, intercepting
in the process the outer heat.
In winter the water passes at first through a
heating coil; then following the path just indf-
Gated it gives up its heat first to the inner then
to the outer WALL The speed of circulation is
so regulated that the water issues from the
house with temperature equal to or less than
that of its entry; the heat is thus entirely util-
lied. The only heat lost or rather unavailable
in the process is that necessary to do the work
of moving the water. NJ. Caron has, in fact,
devised great low temperature heater, with q
very large heating surface - about 300
square yards. When this is at work
the water enters at 3.5 centigrade, is
heated to IS deg. or 20 deg, and leaves at
4 deg; its constructor and proprietor declares
that he is perfectly warmed, which seems very
probable. He asserts, also, that he has found
in this curious construction the following adj
vantages, besides those that arise from keeping
cool in summer and warm in winter: In the
first place, the speed of construction is remark
able. The tubular house was begun OH July z,
and was habitable on September Is following.
In the second place, this iron skeleton may be
put together by unSKllleQ WOrkmen, Dy reason
of the fexibility of its parts. Finally, the
house is q unit, insensible to storms, blasts of
wind, settings of the EARTH and conclusion; it
is a caloric cage, perfectly fitted together, and
of remarkable elasticity. The system may be
recommended to countries subject to earth
quakes-for example, to unfortunate Sicily,
where volcanic action has caused continually
terrible disasters.
The whole house has q volume of 5000 cubic
yards and weighs 120 tons. NJ. Caron has
avoided danger from fire, even though expos
ing himself to that of flood. In an extreme
case he merely turns on faucet and lets his
house get wet through, esteeming this less
evil than having it burned to the ground; and,
in truth, his opinion is quite defensible.
Whatever may be the term of life of the tubu-
lar house at Chamouni, its inventor has had
the rare merit both as engineer and as hygien-
ist of introducing a idea, and of reso-
lutely putting it into execution We wish him
all the degrees of heat and cold that he may de-

principle and method of construction, we wish
him also the highest sanction of every attempt
of this kind-that is to say, rivals and imita-

A Sagacious Dog.

Dandy is the name of remarkably clever
dog that resides at 1919 Seventeenth street.
He is owned by q nightwatchman, and on
Wednesday evening after the family had re-
tired Dandy was locked in the kitchen. During
the night aJrestless desire seems to have pos
sessed the dog to get into the fresh air. The
window suggested itself to the canine mind as
a convenient place of exit. To facilitate his
getting at liberty Dandy chewed off the
wooden crosspieces of the window, pushed out
the glass with his paw and so escaped. The
strange part of the story is that not one piece
of glass was broken.
