seismouraphs on RaiIwavs.

An indication Of the swift progress
Of the Japanese mind in practical sci
ence is Afforded by Doctor OmoTi's re
cent report On the measurement OF
the vibrations Of railway Carriages BY
means Of seismOgraphs. The primary
purpose Of the seismOgraph is to
measure the oscillations Of earth
quakes- japanese engineers use It for
determining the proper balance OF
locomotives and the state OF the per
manent way on railways Many prae-
teal advantages IN the saving Of fuel
and the detection Of faults m con
struction have thus resulted.

Policeman and Jewelrx.

Ever noticed that policemen, as a
class, wear rings more than most
men?' asked the Observant citizen.
We'll, they do. and the rings they
wear are for the most part valuable
ores, usually with diamonds for the
stones. / don't know Why this is IN
less it is that jewellers are glad 20 sell
rings to members Of the force On
credit, feeling sure Of their money,
and give easy terms on that account
But the rings are a fact. Look for
yourself. The Ting-wearing habit has
become the greatest fad there ever
was in the force Plain patrOlmen
often wear rings worth $500 or $30o.
Sergeants own rings worth twice as
much"
In defense Of their jewelry the DO
Hcemen say that it is really an invest
ment. Diamonds are constantly ad-
vancing in value, so they can always
ger the worth of a ring If they choose
to sell it-New York Sun.

A chute, through which the food is

being connected with an arm which

This arm is fastened to a spring held

A bracket supports a clock upon the

Feeder for stock.

One Of the disagreeabIe tasks in re-
alton to the care Of horses, COWS or
Dther cattle is the necessity of arising
Early and supplying them with feed
This is especially true with milk deal
ers, bakers and many others who are
compelled to get up an hour or two
before serving their route in order to
feed their horses. This Is also the
case on Sundays with all drivers OF
teams. Automatic time stock feeders
are not new to the trades, by any
means. but few are as simple as the
one shown in the illustration This
is so constructed that the feed may be

Problem Solved. but With No Eeonem-
iezI Advantage, in London
The storage Of heat has Deen one
of the dreams Of the engineer for
years, and various schemes have been
suggested One is now being tried
at an electric light station in London
The boilers OF this station, of the
water tube type, we're capable Of gen
Grating steam Of 125 pounds absolute
pressure al the rate Of 1900 pounds
an hour
While this suf1ces for most pur-
poses. the demand IS now 50 great at
some times that the boilers are mad
eQuate and no ground is available for
extension Of the plant The period
Of maximum demand Is, moreover, 50
hactuating as to be unecOnomical.
Heat storage, If 1t could be realized,
might be a great advantage
The arrangement adopted in this
London case Is to 1T a large cyindTi-
cal vessel containing water above the
ordinary steam drum OF the boiler
When there is only a normal demand
upon the station some Of the steam
from the boiler is passed into this
water-stOFage cylinder, with the result
that the water is kept at high tenn
perature. so that when the extra de-
mand comes upon the station this wat
er is fed into the boiler, which, owing
10 this hot feed water, can give 1900
pounds Of steam an hOuF-an increase
Of % per cent. It is-said that on &C
casiOn the evaporation was actually
25. 900 pounds, but p per cent is prob
ably sufficient, especially as there is
no printing.
There is no economy IN the system;
the coal consumption must increase
even at a greater rate than the evap-
Grafton, as there is considerable loss
through heat radiation from the hot
water storage tank, 50 that the sys-
TEN may meet special conditions, but
beyond that its practical advantages
are not observable

In this instance it appears that
either the cylinder IS too small or too

is loose in the cylinder and leaking
air. If the latter IS the case, the pipe
empties after each operation, and the
whole has to be refilled with a loose
valve, which accounts for the large
