MONOGRAPH ON LIARS.

The editor Of the Melvin (Micn) Week
ly Monitor-Pilot contributes this inter-
esting monograph to the mass of cur
rent literature on lies, liars, and lying:
Liars are a queer Invention, truly. be-
ing the production of every age, and.
like the measeis and mumps, is no re-
spector of persons, only differing in non
essentials, affecting some worse than
others We meet those fellows every
day, and the pity of il all is they don't
care a rap what they say, and theig.
eyes are set in continual stare of in
JUred innocence that will deceive even
the elect. OF course, we know the
world is mostly all lie, from the howell
TO throne, Yet we do not like to see
innocent people made the victims and
exposed to public ridicuIe. We have met
the occasional liar, the symptomatic
lar, and he who lies by conversion, but
the continual liar is the worst of the
species, as their futile brain Is ever con-
Turing up some extraordinary happen
ing, and the more they ponder the
larger II becomes, which, taken with
constant consideration. makes the liar
almost believe the child of his o.yn
fancy We consider this a disease COM
parable with leprosy, and like H. the
victim should be provided with a license
and badge for the protection of a long
suffering public.

AUTOMATIC RESTAURANTS.

In the Technical World Fritz Morris
describes the ingenious automatic res
taurants which have recently been in
troduced IN Berlin.
Cabinets with glass fronts line the
walls" Mr.. Morris writes. and through
these glass fronts are TO be seen rows
of little elevators. with the slots and
mechanism for working them. On one
side of the restaurant is fitted an auto
mat bar. where. by dropping the indi-
Gated price into the proper slot, the
wished-for drink comes TO the waiting
customer. Shelves all around, on the
little elevators. bring up hot SOUPS, hot
roasts. cold meats. pies. sandwiches.
tea. coffee-in fact. whatever is on the
menu. and that is changed daily. All
the customer has TO do is TO decide
what he wants. drop his coin in the little
opening. and await results. In less than
q minute. up comes his meal. raised by
electricity from the kitchen IN the base
ment. and IL comes either steaming hot
or ice-cold. Just as ordered and clean,
fresh. and sweet. with no dirty-handed
waiter with black cuffs and greasy nap

Chimney $50 Feet High at Newark, NJ

Recently a 35O-foot brick chimney has
been completed at the chemical works
of the Heller * Merz Company, in New
ark. \. J. It is one of the highest struc-
lures of its kind in this country and its
purpose is to convey TO a height which
will not permit of interference with the
health of the neighboTing community.
acid gases at a maximum temperature
of ! 600 to 1900 degrees F. The CHM
ney is lined Throughout with fire and
acid-proof brick.
The construction of the monster chin
ney was found to be necessary 10 the
health Of the population which had
grown up in the vicinity of the great
chemical works.
The chemical works, which have been
at their present location for many years,
have long used small chimneys, lbs feet
high or less, to carry of the acid fumes
of the smelling furnaces
Acid Became a Nuisance.
Originally the works were outside of
the city of Newark and the fumes were
unobjecuonabIe, In the course of time.
however, as Newark expanded in every
direction, the built-up portion Of the
city extended close to the plant. and
the sulphuric and nitric acid fumes then
became a serious nuisance in the neigh
borhOod-
A study OF the situation. with the ad-
vice of numerous consulting experts.
finally led the owners to decide upon
tall chimney which would discharge the
gases at such a height that they would
not longer do injury in the neighbor-
hood.
Rests on Piles.
The structure rests on pile founda-
ton. The soil at the site is soft, marshy
ground and the foundation was design
ed only after thorough study Of the
local conditions
Behring'S made at several different
places showed that rock would be found
at a depth OF sixty feet below ground,
and the test piles demonstrated that it
would be practicable TO drive piles down
to rock 1t was considered safe to load
plies up to fifteen to twenty tons. AS
designed and built, the foundation con-
tains 324 piles in staggered spacing,
about two and one-half feet apart,
forming a square foIty-five feet on a
side.
Yellow pine piles were used OF sixty
feet minimum length; they were driven
with a 3,O00-pound drop hammer and
were cut OH three AeGL DcltN lllS SUI
face of the ground to receive the con-
crete base block. The pressure on the
foundation piles under the maximum
wind pressure is nineteen tons per pile
al the iecward edge.
Encountered Quicksand.
4 few feet below the surface Of the
ground at the site quicksand was en-
countered. 1t was necessary. to avoid
very difficult working, to keep the exca-
walton for concrete well above the Top
of the quieksand. For this reason the
concrete extends only four feet below
the original ground surface, having a
one-foot grip on the pile heads. The
total depth of concrete foundation block
IS fourteen feet.
At the base this block is square, at
the top 1t IS octagonal, and the general
form is pyramidal. The base was made
of Atlas Portland cement. sand and
crushed stone
The stack itself is a brick cone of uni
form taper. whose inside top diameter
Is eight feet IN the clear.
