likely to result from the use OF Brooklyn
thermometer. Those made for use in the
navy are tested every few days for months,
until there Is absolutely no chance of error
remaining.
A thermometer lately adopted by some Of
the big battleships and orders for which are
now being filled for several OF the smaller
vessels in the navy, is that which is known
among experts the Hicks pattern. 1t
takes its name after the English manufac-
turer who invented It. II is so complicated
in pattern that there is but one man in
America who knows how to make ii. He is
employed in the Brooklyn factory, where he
has his hands full The attractive feature
| about this instrument is that it auto
matically records the lowest and the highest
temperatures to which it has been subjected
since last observed. This is accomplished
| without the Use of ink marked diagram. but
by little floats which stick in the tubes
where the mercury has been highest and
( where it has been lowest. Such thermome-
! tors, however, are very expensive, as, in
fact, ali of those which are made in the
queer Brooklyn factory Nothing is there

watched and carefully reported, and, it is
hardly necessary to say, Is kept at the low
est point possible.
Brooklyn thermometers are not the only
ones in use on men-of war, but it is safe
to say that none manufactured elsewhere
have the international reputation for ac-
curacy which those from the borough Of baby
carriages enjoy. In the United States navy
and in the national weather bureau service
they used exclusively. In fact there is
hardly a place in the world in which it is
necessary to ascertain temperature to the
fraction Of a degree where they are not
given the preference of all others. If you
are a traveller and are ever in Japan, step
into any scientific laboratory there and you
will find visible proof that American in
struments are in high favor among learned
Mongolians
The factory, for this it must OF necessity
be termed, would never be recognized from

of rooms in an apartment house The theT-
mometer industry is there conducted so

| ence. Two skilled workmen are all that

have to be paid of when pay day comes
around, incredible as it may seem. Thus
II will be seen that the lives OF thousands
OF sailors abroad men-of-wat in all parts
Of the world depend for their safety
upon the scientific accuracy OF the work
Of two skilled mechanics. II in making
a thermometer one Of these men should
make a mistake of a few degrees, making
the reading too low, and the error we're not
discovered in time TO rectify it, an awful
but unconscious danger would lurk in the
snip In whose magazine the instrument were
paced. An explosion as fearful as that
which destroyed the Maine or as destructive
as any OF the internal explosions which
wrecked at least one OF Cerveras
vessels, would be liable to occur at any mo-
ment. Such a catastrophe. however. is not

cial scientific tests in which it Is necessary
TO ascertain temperature with fractional ac-
curacy Cheap thermometers such as are
commonly seen in ordinary use are made in
various places all over the world.
Henry ]. Green the owner OF the Brooklyn
workshop, is a close student and is little
known to the outside world. Among eminent
scientists and prominent officials in the
navy and weather bureau, he has probably
wider circle OF friends than any other
man in America, Personally he has
made many inventions, and has added
much TO thermometer science, though he
freely admits that large share of the
reputation Of Brooklyn thermometers is not
due to himself His father, who esta blished
the shop, established its reputation also,
Omaha daily bee., 1898-10-30

and gave its present owner his practical
knowledge of exact thermometry.
Since the war broke out the shop has
been unable 20 supply the demands made
upon it by the United States navy alone.
The orders 1t has now on hand are weeks
behind and cannot Immediately be
filled because OF the lack OF workmen who
possess recognized skill sufficient to under
take them. This is all due to the recent
wholesale conversion OF merchant vessels for
active war service. Now that the war Is
over it is likely that before long the little
shop will resume it's quietude.

then takes a strong stick and strikes the
broomstick sharp, strong blow in the mid,
die. and it breaks instantly, without tearing
the paper rings or causing them to cut on
the razors.
Or this can be done by sticking a needle
in each end Of the broomstick and resting
the needles on the edges of glass goblets
stood on chairs. In either case the blow
struck in the middle breaks the stick with
out moving the supports. A pile OF checkers
may be put on the table and by one blow
With the edge OF a knife the center or
even the bottom one may be removed with
out disturbing the others.
Atmospheric pressure furnishes some in
| teresting facts some Of the experiments
being enough like magic to find a place in
a parlor entertainment. Take an ordinary
decanter and hard boiled egg. Take the
she'll of the egg. Then push a piece of
paper down into the decanter and light it
and let 1t burn. AS soon as you see that
| the paper is nearly consumed, put the egg
on the mouth Of the decanter like cork,
| small end down. In a few minutes the
! air outside presses the egg through the neck
| of the bottle down inside. The egg being
at least twice as large as the mouth OF the
! decanter 1t requires force enough to make
1t grow long and narrow. The vacuum in
side made by the burning paper and the
atmospheric pressure get the egg through
and it falls to the bottom and regains its
own shape. We will not discuss the Ques-
tion OF getting the egg out again.
In "A Paper Box.
J Two more tricks based upon the conduct
ing power of metals, and the power of alb
sorption of heat by water One may take a
small but powerful alcohol lamp and stand
it on the table. An ordinary playing card
! with the edges bent up has piece OF lead
about as large as half a dollar put in the
center. This card Is then held directly over
! the flame of the lamp and in few minutes
tn lead is melted and the card is not injured
in the least.
The last and neatest experiment OF all is
to boii water in paper box A little paper
| box is folded as all school children know
how, into a square box about an inch deep
and two square Cords are fastened to the
! corners and a piece OF stick passed through
so that it will hang perfectly level. Light
the alcohol lamp and fill the little box with
water and suspend 1t directly above the
fame about three inches higher. In few
minutes the water will boif and send up a
miniature cloud OF steam without harm to
the box. This requires some experience as
to the proper distance IL should be held from
the flame, and it is well to have the lamp
in a good-sized dish in case the performer
should be careless enough to upset the box
or a string pull out, short magic lantern
exhibition would finish out a really pleasant
and instructive evenings entertainment.
