SOLAR WATER HEATER.
California Man Has Invented u Cons
trivance Which He Considers
of Rare Value.

The majority of bathers do not want
hot water for all their summer baths,
and yet it is nearly always necessary to
start fire to take the chill off the
water, as few can stand it at the nor
NAL temperature. AS matter of
economy in performing this service the
solar water heater recently designed
by California inventor may, if sue
cessful, recommend itself to all house
holders, the cost of installation being
the final expense also, whereas, in case
of artificial heat the fuel for the fire
soon amounts to considerable. Then,
too, there is generally more than a
sufficient amount of heat in the house
in summer, without generating more
to heat the bathing water. The in
ventor claims that sufficient amount

of heat can be secured from the suns
rays to raise the water to the neces-
sary temperature, by utilizing this in
yention, which. as will be seen, consists
of an ordinary hot-water boiler set in a
glass-inclosed pocket in the roof of the
house. Surrounding the boiler and
forming the sides of the pocket are a
number of polished metal refectsrs,
which serve to concentrate the heat
rays on the reservoir, and it is not at
all unlikely that the interior of the
pocket will be sufficiently warm to
heat the bathing water all summer
without any artificial heat. In winter
time when the range replaces the gas
stove and constant fire is maintained
it is arranged so that the solar heater
can be disconnected and all the water
withdrawn from the boiler to prevent
freezing, the supply pipes leading to
the tub being connected with both the
range and the solar heater.-Louisyille

Discovery in Metal1ursy.

Alloys of aluminium and magnesium
are known to work better than pure
aluminium with certain tools, but they
are less malleable and ductile. Some G err
man metallurgists have discovered
that the addition of two to ten per
cent. magnesium scarcely changes the
appearance of the aluminium, but that
this alloy acquires new qualities after
rolling several times at a temperature
of 400 to 500 degrees: c. 1t can be
cut and filed with the greatest facil-
ity, while it retains the duetility and
malleability of pure aluminium.

formed of a single strip of spring met
al, which may be stamped to shape,
having Jugs on either side of the shank
to act as locking shoulders on the in
side Of the escutcheon when the guard

The guard can then only be with

To afford the guard solid hold on the

HOW RAIN IS FORMED.
Semi-Scie ntific Explanation Of Phe-
nonemon In Which Everybody.
Is Interested.

With regard to the formation of
rain we accept the principle developed
by Espy, namely, that the rain comes
from clouds formed by the cooling of
ascending currents CT moist air. The
cooling is due primarily to the fact
that when the air ascends by any nat
ural process it also expands, and, there
fore, pushes the surrounding air aside.
But push and expansion mean that
work is being done. The expansion of
steam in cylinder pushes the piston
ahead and does the work of the en-
CINE, but this work is done at the ex-
pense of the heat in the hot steam,
and the latter cools just in proportion
as the work is done. We ordinarily
say that the internal heat of the steam
is converted into visible work, or the
potential energy of pressure is con-
verified into kinetic energy of motion.
Just so with the rising air; it ex-
pands, does work, and cools at rather
rapid rate as it rises Zone deg. +. for
| 1S5 feeD. If it rises until it cools
10 the temperature of saturation at
which it can hold no more moisture
than that which is carried up with it,
then, condensation begins and haze or
| cloud becomes visible. But in this con-
densation the latent heat of the con-
densed moisture is given out, thereby
preventing the air from cooling as rap
idly as it has hitherto done. 1t there
| fore now begins to cool less rapidly
| and to ascendAnorer rapidly.
The radiat ton of heat from the up
per surface of a cloud at night, or the
absorption of the suns heat in the
daytime, has less influence when the
ascending air rises rapidly than when
it rises slowly. The latter case occurs
in our extended transforms, especially
those over the ocean where the clouds
often travel at the rate of 100 miles an
hour, and the individual particles of
air appear to rise relatively very little,
! possibly mile in that distance, but
of course, rolling over and over each
other as they proceed. There is no
doubt but that little mixture goes
on at the boundary of the ascending
air between it and the neighboring air
but, on the one hand, this is too small
a matter to explain the formation OF
rain on the outside of cloud, and, or
the other hand, it does not occur at
all in the interior of cumulus cloud
where the rainfall is heaviest.
Just how the particles of cloud hap.
pen to come together, or to grow into
big drops, has not yet been clearly ex
planned, but in general we know thai
only small proportion, possibly on,
per cent, of all the moisture in clout
comes down as rain, while the rest o:
the cloud evaporates and disappears

sn1oonkeepers sued.

Mrs. Nellie Arens has sued every
saloonl1eeper in Remsen for $4,000
damages for bringing about the de-
spondency that resulted in her hus-
band committing suicide. Arens had
been hard drinker for two years;
and was finally notified by his en-
ployers that his services would not
be needed after September 1. On Au-
gust 30 he secured a large quantity OF
liquor, went to his office and shot
himself. leaving his wife without sup
port. She had repeatedly served no
tlce on the saloonkeepers not to sell
liquor to her husband.
