of its enlargement and renovation Il
can now be classed among the largest
and most important hotels of Wild
wood. Twenty-seven additional bel
rooms were added, making altogether

tractive and unique room in the towa
than the lobby of this house, which il
finished in weathered oak with q
beautifully wide stairway. The fur
nishings came from John Wanamaker
and are of the best, com rising import
ed willow ware and grass Irvine pieces
the like of which cannot be found on
the island. The dining room will seat
n hundred persons and is finished in
mahogany. George Tresher, the owner
of the house, has spared no expense in
fitting it up, and his son, j. X. Tresher'
the proprietor of the hotel, has per-
sonally supervised all the improve
ments, with the able assistance of HE
wife.

WATER SNAKE PuMP

Before pumps were invented all sorts
OF queer devices were employed to raise
water from ponds. streams and wells
one of these was a machine which Is
commonly called Archimedes' screw. be-
cause u was supposed TO have been in
venteu by ArChmedes, who lived in the
third century before the Christian era
But the same apparatus has been used in
Egypt from long before his time until
the present day.
It is nothing but n tube wound spiral
~. IKE a corkscrew, around Il pole and
placed in an inclined position with its
lower end dipping into the water and
! turned by crank at it's upper end.
Every time the open lower end of the
tube dips under the surface il scoops up
e. little water. which as the tube or
screw, is turned rises along IL until IL
reaches the upper end and flows out
The apparatus viii not work If &c is
! inclined very steeply. 50 TO raise water
TO any great height II would have TO be-
made exceedingly long. But il would
/ do very well for raising water from a
! pond or stream to a reservoir on the
! bank from which il could be carried
I away in buckets, or allowed to flow
! through canals or pipes TO places farther
/ water We're a swiftly flowing stream you
would not have TO turn the crank. for a
paddle wheel attached to she lower part

SO there is your water snake You

end. ~-hich should have an arm at
