The 6GPickef.O

The picket was generally inflicted on
cavalry and artillerymen and was a
singularly brutal bit of torture. A long
POST, near which stood a stool, was
driven into the ground. The delinquent
was ordered to mount the stool, and
his right hand was fastened to a hook
in the post by a moose, drawn up as
high as it could be stretched. round his
wrist. A stump the height of the stool.
with its end cut to a round and blunt
point, was also driven into the earth
close to the post. Then the stool was
taken away. and the sufferer had moth
ing to rest his bare feet upon but the
stump, (which. though ii did not uSu-
ally break the skim says Captain
GrOSe. put him in great torture, his
only means Of relief being by resting
his weight on his wrist, the pain of
which soon became intolerable." One

hIleu, the only pressure that it is sub
Jected to is the same as that in the
water pipes, from which of course
there never is the slightest danger.
And this is true no matter how hot the
water in the boiler may be.
The reason is very simple. As long
as the boiler is kept full of water there
is no room for steam. If you open the
hot water cock, the water pours out,
and steam rises from it, because it then
has chance to escape into the air. In
other words, evaporation takes place.
But as the hot water pOurs out water
from the pipes rushes in to take its
place, and thus the boiler is kept full.
The cracking noise referred to is
heard when the water is unusually hot
and is nothing put the expansion of the
boiler under the influence of that heat.
1t is In no degree an indication of dan
ger unless indeed the boiler is worn out
or defective, W hich is q matter entirely
outside of what we are now consider
ing.
when kitchen boiler explOdes, it is
generally because fire has been kin
died in the range while the boiler was
empty. 1t happens sometimes when
people come back to town after spend
ing the summer away. The fire heats
the boiler. of course. and when the wa
ter is turned on it is converted sudden
iy and violently into steam, and the
boiler cannot stand the enormous pres

thoughtless enough or silly enough to
build fire before opening the cocks
connecting the boiler with the water

WHY THE BOILER BURSTS.

Scientific Explanation of Some Phe-
HOmena of the Kitchen.
When you hear the kitchen boiler
cracking, there is no cause for alarm
There is a prevailing impression that
the cracking is produced by steam and
that there is therefore an increased
pressure on the boiler at such times.
But this is an error. If the boiler is in
good condition, with the water turned
on as usual so that the boiler is kept
