DRY-ROT IN BRIDGES.
Why wooden Structures should Not
BE Painted Until they Have
Stood Year.

The effect of paint on wet timber is to
retain moisture and cause the so-ca'ted
'dry-rot." If the timber is dry and we'll
seasoned, the better practice is to apply
a coating of paint at once. 1t is, how
ever, q mistake to paint unseasoned
timber in bridge until it has stood
year, and the work should be done at
the end of the summer, when The wood
is thoroughly dry.
Because of the tendency of paint to
retain moisture. there has been some
dispute as to the advisability of paint"
ing very large timbers in a bridge, the
tendency of the paint being to increase
the dry-rot. Nevertheless, the timber
reaches certain stage, after sufficient
seasoning, when to exclude the atmos-
phere by painting tends to its preserva-
ton.
1t is not considered good practice,
however, in wooden bridge construc'
ton, to use any timber more than six
inches in thickness. Where greater
strength is required. in caps, beams,
cords, braces, etc, a sufficient number
of pieces, of this or less thickness,
should be built together by keys, pack
ing pieces and bolts, thus allowing a
| free circulation of air. Over members
thus composed should be placed COW
ering of galvanized iron, extending IA
half or three-quarters of an inch down
on the timber, and secured by galvan-
lied tacks. preventing the rain from en-
tering the spaces or resting on or
around the packed joints.
The bridge thus built should be given
one thorough coat of paint the summer
following its construction, and second
coat should be applied the third year
The ends of all timbers, all seats, joints
and bearings, should be well and thor
oughly coated with white lead at the
time of construction. - Municipal

The Storage of Onions.

Onions, unless they have been prop
erly prepared, are difficult to keep, but
properly ripened off, dug at the right
season and dried as they should be, they
will keep well. The temperature must
be low and the air dry, as in warm,
moist atmosphere they soon grow and
are spoiled. If l had onions to store,
not knowing how they had been dried,
/ should subject them to 100 degrees
heat for several days, which has almost
the effect of kiln drying. Then place
in shallow, Slated boxes, piled one
above another, in cellar well ventil-
ated and keep just above freezing. If
this way is not practicable they can be
kept in a building away from fire,
stored in bin which has thick lining

A SINGULAR SUIT.
Marcus Braun Secures Judgment
Against Wagner Palace Car Company
on Unusual Grounds,

Ashiust NhsheT FaIace Gar company
on Unusual Grounds.
One of the most singular suits on
record has just been decided in the
city court in New York City, Marcus
Braun having secured a Judgment
against the Wagner Palace Car COM
pany for $3.50 as damages for mis-
take made by one of the company's
conductors, who allotted berth al
ready sold to Braun to woman.
When the error was discovered every
berth in the train was sold and Braun
was compelled to sit in the smoking
compartment during a trip from
Cleveland to New York City. When
Braun bought his coupon for the
berth he left his luggage in the seat
and went to the smoking compart-
ment. He did not return for two
hours, according to his own story, but
when he did he found the berth made
up and occupied. The comments of
the other passengers so injured his
feelings, he says, that money COM
pensation is due him, he alleges. The
woman in the berth produced a cou-
pom which was an, exact dpnlicate of
the coupon given to Braun.

During a week spent under canvas
with the volunteers at Aldershot we
had for a messmate a son of the
Green Isle. Now, the liquid we had
supplied to us for tea was a mystery;
not one could name it accurately as
tea, coffee or cocoa, and few could
swallow it. The Irishman, who had
brought with him a good supply of
rum, added a liberal allowance of the
same to aid him to drink his "tay."
When the officer of the day came
round to make the usual inquiry:
Amy complaints, menu" the Irish
man, with wink to the remainder of
us, held out his pot to The officer with:
Twill yer honor PLACE taste and tell
us if it's tay or what?" The officer, a
young lieutenant, carefully raised the
pot to his lips, but no sooner tasted
it Tor smelt it) than, taking a deep
breath, he drained the contents, and
handed back the empty pot with the
remark: Il cannot say it was tea,
