Factories without Chi1nneys.

The statement that a chimney, the
third or fourth tallest in the world, has
just been completed at a cost of $53, :
900, and the announcement that the
most gratifying success has attended the
use of forced draft, without any Chin
neys whatever out of the ordinary, ap-
pear in contemporary journals. The ex-
pertinent of forced draft gives promise
of great economy in fuel, as we'll as
doing away with the expensive and un-
ornamental chimney. The draft arrange
ment consists of large fan, which is
connected with by double cylinder
engine. The fan has wheel 81 inches
in diameter and runs at almost any rate
of speed desired The draft is something
prodigious and makes it possible to en-
ploy fuel of a lower grade than any
heretofore used. Instead of the best
Cumberland coal, mixture Of Cumber-
land and screenings has been tried. The
cost Of operating the fan, even with i'm
perfect apparatus, is something like
$500 per annum. The smokestack is
scarcely taller than the roof of the
building and Of less capacity than that
heretofore used for such purposes. New

The other afternoon I was in gen.
tleman's Quitting shop when Gus
toner came in to purchase hat. He
tried on several and was evidently hard
to please, the counter becoming covered
with the rejected. At last the salesman
picked up brown felt bowler, brushed
it round with his arm and extended it
admiringly.
"These are being very much worn
this season, SIR" he explained.
'Are they?" said the customer
thoughtfully, surveying himself in the
mirror, with his hat on his head. "Do
you think it suits me?''
Suits you to perfection, sir. if the
fits right.
eyes, it fits very well. So you think
I had better have it?''
81 don't think you could do better.
sir"
"No, don think could. SO won 7
have new one.''
The salesman had been praising ul
the old hat. -Pearson's Weekly.
