AN ENORMOUS PIPE LINE.
An Australian Water Conduit Over
Three Hundred Miles Long.
From The Engineering News.


From The Engineering News.
The Coolgadie project proposes the deliv-
cry of five million gallons of water per
day at a point in the mining regions Of
Australia. 32S miles from the reservoir
in the mountains near the coast, where it
is impounded. To force water through
a pipe line for this long distance, not only
must its friction be overcome, but it has
to be actually raised total vertical dis
lance of 1880 feet Further, the district
through which the pipe line passes is
desert whose soil is impregnated with salts,
which are said to be so corrosive to iron
that it is deemed safest not to bury the pipe
in the ground at all.
Another reason for having 1t exposed is
that in a pipe line of such great length
avoidance of leaks is essential. If an CT
binary pipe line leaks a thousandth part
of it's flow in a mile the loss may be
trifing matter; yet even so small loss
in a pipe line of this length would amount
10 nearly a third of its flow. In the arid
desert through which this pipe line will
mass. it is thought that the soil might abb
sorb small leaks, so that they would not
show at all on the surface of the ground
If the pipe were buried Facility OF in
spection, therefore, is another important
reason for keeping the pipe above ground
instead of burying it.
Besides this, the ordinary reasons for
bllrying water pipes-to get them out OF
the way, and to keep them frow freez-
ing in winter-do not obtain at all in the
nj will &c
and as the cost of excavatng and back
alling trench s28 miles long will be saved
bv placing the pipe on the surface, the oe-
cision not to bury it seems in the whole,
a wise one.
~he one great difficulty which is involv-
ed in keeping the pipe on the surface is
The necessity of providing for expansion
and contraction. In an ordinary continu-
ouss steel conduit, buried in the earth in a
temperate climate, the extremes OF tenn

WHEN TO EAT DINNER.
Discussion of DrOwsiness After Food

From the British Medical Journal.

From the British Medical Journal.
Woodworking men, especially in the
learned professions, are often puzzled as
TO the right hours for their meals and the
right diet to be taken at their meals. The
much graver question OF stimulants also
interests them personally. The fear of a
midday meal is very common among
bran-worl1ers. A good luncheon is apt 20
interfere with Inspiration, especially If
any form of alcohol is to be taken. Tea
very popular with scholars, is less objec-
tionable as to its immediate effects, but it
is very dangerous to digestion, especially
among scholars, who, like workwomen
nearly always take too much and prefer
their tea to be strong red as blood" as
Garriek used 10 say. The chief danger in
taking 100 light a midday meal Is that
the student is at his worst physically, just
before dinner time. Hence, dinner is rem
dered a fresh source of dyspepsia and If
he strolis about before the evening meal
he is apt to take cold.
The special stimulants of great men have
been recorded in their memoirs. One of
has come to light in Aubreys Brief
Lives" founded on notes taken by the au-
thor in the middle of the seventeenth cen
fury Few drinks are more distrusted
among brain-workers in these days than
ale. but Prynne seems to have thought
otherwise. He was a voluminous writer.
and his pamphlets lost him his ears and
endangered his head. Aubrey informs us
that about every three hours his (Pryn-
ne's) man was TO bring him roll and pot
Of ale to refocillate his wasted spirits; so
he studied and drank and munched some
bread, and this maintained him till night;
and then he made a good supper Now,
he did well not to dine, which breaks off
ones fancy, which will not presently be
regained."
The danger of a priorl reasoning may
be seen from the above quotation. Those
who have forgotten about Prynne would
take him from this note of his diet 10 be
a Bohemian of a well-kuown old-fashion-
ed type yet he was stern, uncompromis-
ing Puritan, who suffered mut.lation and
the pillory, and had a violent and very UNI
Bohemian prejudice against the stage.
The diet does not then proclaim the man.
We doubt, however, II the serious student
Of the end OF the nineteenth century
would do well to "refocllate his wasted
spirits" by drinking pot of ale every
three hours. Prynne was perhaps wise
not to dine, which meant TO lunch in those
DAYS. and implied a very heavy meal. But
the munching Of rolls all day and the
good supper" we're questionable. His
style was very causic; perhaps because
of the rnisrule of Charles l., but possibly.

so disastrous an influence on the literary
