mand for Them.
There is no end to the variety OF
thermometers" said a dealer in such
things, to the New York Sun. "They
include, for instance, thermometers for
travellers use. The Oldest style has
nickel plated metal case within
which the glass mercury tube is held
when not in use. With the glass in
side the metal case and screwed down
it is securely and safely carried. An
other sort of travellers thermometer
has the tube upon one side of the lid
Of a slender little rosewood box. The
newest style Of travellers thermometer
has the tube secured to the inner side
OF one of two narrow, handsomely fin
ished pieces of rosewood that are held
together at one end by hinge Closed,
these two pieces Of rosewood shut up
together with the glass tube between
them, and are secured by little clasp
like pocketbook clasp. In use this
holder is opened widely, the hinge be-
ing so made as to permit of moving
one part through three quarters of a
circle, one part being then placed fiat
on the shelf of a dressing case, or
wherever the thermometer may be put,
the part with the tube attached stand
ing up, then inclined a little from the
upright back from the hinge. These
two last named kinds sell each at 81.
