DEVELOPMENT of the Han mer.

Mans first tool was the uplifted hand
grasping n stone. and from this came,
after many years, the hammer. AS
hea vier blows became necessary the
hammer grew in size, until ii was OPP
Grated by machinery in the form Of the
tilt or helvc hammer. When steam sue
cecded water as n motive power, a
steam cylinder replaced the tripping
cam, but the first half Of the past cen
fury had nearly expired before the orig
inal form of this tool was at al chang
ed by james Nasmyth's invention Of
the upright steam hammer.
Since then the falling weight Of this
design of tool has gradually been in
creased from few hundred pounds up
to 100 and even 10 tons, but excepting
the smaller sizes up to % tons 1t has
since 1890 been superseded by the n.y.
draul press. which by its slow motion
produces a more thorough working Of
the metal. Presses have grown until
the capacity of $4,000 tons was reach
ed, requiring n 5000 horsepower en-
CINE TO drive 1t. Such tool, with its
accompaniment of 200 ton electric
cranes for handling the work under
meath, IS capable of forging ingots over
- inches In diameter and weighing
more than III, 900 pounds.

The effects of ammonia upon the
complexion are directly the opposite to
that of arsenic. The first symptom of
ammonia poisoning which appears
among those who work in ammonia
factories is discoloration of the skin
of the nose and the forehead This
gradually extends over the face until
the complexion has a stained. blotched
and unsightly appearance. With peo-
pie who take ammonia into their sys-
TENS in smaller doses. as with their
water or food. these striking symptoms
do not appear so soon. The only effect
Of the poison that is visible for time
