The Spray Boiler.

The spray boiler. so-called, COM
mends itself, especially for steam car
riages on common roads, for it has the
least weight for a given efficiency of
any steam generator known. True, it
has the disadvantage of wearing out
very rapidly. hut this is not so serious
an evil as the words seem to imply.
When it is said that a steam boiler
wears out rapidly, an idea is given of
an expensive generator, but the value
of the spray boiler lies in the fact that
it is not expensive to either construct
or maintain. The spray boiler is all
heating surface, and requires no costly
fire box. which is one Of the first
places to give trouble; it carries no
dead weight of water, either, and has
distinct merits for the work mentioned.
1t is not an original suggestion with us
to use it for road carriages-for the
Serpollet boiler is constructed upon
this principle. and the road carriage
used by NJ. Serpollet has proven to be
a practical machine in daily use. Per
sons who are about to design steam
wagons for 0mmo roads should IN
vestigate the merits of the spray TYPE
of boiler for the purpose.-Engincer.

As Low Now in Hamburg rs When
1t Was a Free Port.
The enormous strides which Ger
many has made during the last quar-
ter of a century-that Is, since it's uni
f~ication-are nowhere more apparent
than at Hamburg, now the first COM
mercial port and center of the empire.
In it's old days, hardly a dozen years
ago. when. retaining its ancient Hans
eatic privileges as a free port, it adj
mitted all goods from other countries
without toll. it was looked upon with
considerable envy by other cities Of the
confederation. BY far the richest ON
munity then In proportion to Its size,
it had it's Owl local administration, so
powerful taht it could dictate terms
even to the central government. Yet
1t gave way at last, and was enrolled
in the great German Zollverein, tax
ing foreign goods at the nominal rates
of imposition. just as in all the rest Of
the empire, but reserving to itself cer--
tain privileges of making its OWL laws
and preserving a sort Of autonomy.
q l knew Hamburg as a free port. and
made careful notes of the prices of
commodities. This last week l have
again noted carefully the prices, as
marked in the shop windows, made
close inquiries besides, and compared
them with English and French. Aud
it appears to me the cost of living un-
der the new regime is very little, if
any, more than previously, which,
compared with English cities of equal
size, is little enough. Provisions of all
kinds are no dearer and generally both
cheaper and better than in England:
household furniture and the entire me-
mage for an apartment is far prettier,
better made, more comnodiaus and
complete than anything of the kind in
England and France, is less costly
than in both, and, compared with
France, say, without hesitation, is 80
per cent less.
Rent is exceedingly moderate; quite
half that of Paris, if not of London.
Only a short time ago, in speaking
to a city of London merchant, I re
marked: eff only you would learn
something of continental thrift you
never need complain Of bad trade"
He looked at me for a moment, and
then emphatically said: "Wc are not
going to economize, and we do not
need to learn from other nations. But
we are going to have good trade again.
and that in our owl way" This rep
resents the sentiment of English peo-
pie far too frequently. And 1t Is be
cause the thriftless character is so uni
versal among all classes of English
people that we have-what apparently
does not exist in France, Germany,
Holland. Belgium, Switzerland, Nor
way. Sweden or Denmark-a sub
merged TENTH" and a very large tenth
it is.-London Queen.

The horses come struggling up: some
without riders, and riders without
mats. Some are caught in the briars,
and seem unable to get out, but finally
the field is assembled around a big
sycamore, about which the dogs are
grouped, making music. Some at

young dog gains ten feet up the slip

The English Comic Song.

The British comic song has finally
acknowledged it's condition. No long
er can it rely on mere words and be
dull enough. This proposition may be
difficult to understand in view of some
efforts that have been heard here in
recent years; but it is true that the
brain of the comic balladist is finally
weary. Ellaline Terriss sings a music
hall song in His Excellency" which
might be taken as the swan song Of
it's class. Its only a%rticulate words are
"Umpty. umpty, aye" and Jim. jam,
that's the sort of girl l am The rest
of the humor and the wit is supplied
by means of a bladder which Miss
Terriss has on the end of a string at
tached to a small wand. After she
had sung "Umpty, umpty, aye" for
eighteen or twenty times, and "Jim,
lam, that's the sort of girl / am" for
az many more, she simply bangs the
bladder on the stage. That finishes
the song. 1t is really a tremendous
Improvement over other English com
ic songs. If the English music hall
singers had bought bladGers instead or
hiring song-writers. no end of worry
might have been saved this suffering
country. AS a mere matter of cOmpar-
ison, how much wittier and brighter
are the thuds of a bladder than the
sound of such words as "Umpty, imp
ty. ave" The British comic song will
recover some of its waning popularity
if the writer's of the words retire il
favor of the bladders.-New York Sun

considering the chances. Nearer the
climber comes, until man and cat gaze
into each others eyes scarce three
feet away. For a moment puss hest
tates, then turning quickly he steadies
himself, and with a mighty spring is
in the air. Down he goes, fifty feet,
bounces among the bush, a mass of
springs, steel and rubber, and is away.
He has landed just beyond the circle
and n horse has dashed aside to let
him pass, followed by the pack in full
cry. They go like a flash of light. a
roaring, crashing sound; q scream
and puss is again visible, perched upon
the limb of another big sycamore.
Then the same thing is repeated,
again and again, and the women re-
pent, and cries of Let him co." "Poor
puss," are heard among the baying of
the dogs that are growing fairly mad
with unappeased fel~ ociousness. Again
the young man faces the cat, this time
fully sixty feet from the ground.
Surely IL ever an animal had won it's
liberty this one had. But the game is
up. The dogs are spreading, and as

The agony of the cat is over in a

borne aloft as a trophy. Not a few of
the dogs but have felt the sharp teeth

Between Miss O'Neill and Miss Fan
ny Kemble, the most noteworthy Juliet
was Miss Phillips, who cannot, how
ever, be regarded as an actress of the
first rank. On Oct. 5, 1929, when the
fortunes Of Covent Garden were at a
very low ebb, an attempt was made to
revive them by bringing out Charles
Kemble's daughter, Mrs. Siddons'
niece, in the part of Juliet, her father
playing Mercutio and Abbott Romeo.
Fanny Kemble may or may not have
been a great actress, but a clever wo-
man she undoubtedly was, and her ac-
