To Prevent Burst PIPES.

1t is a well known fact, says the
London Globe, that a pipe of circular
section will hold more than one of
eIliptical section of the same external
measurement; hence lead pipe of the
latter form viii not burst in freezing.
The water in solidifying will change
the pipe from elliptical to circular and
thus make room for its increased bulk
without bursting It, To prevent the
bursting Of water pipes In frosts it
has been suggested that they should
be made elliptical In section. The
drawback to this is that they would
only thus stand one freezing, as this
would reduce them TO the ordinary cir
cular form. In a recent lecture Pro
fessor Vivian B. Lewes has suggested
that exposed pipes might be slightly
flattened with a malIet before a frost.
This would serve the same purpose.

Rssoani.ed Their Old Frl.ns.

The late Sir John Steel, who was
sculptor to Queen Victoria. was model
ing bust Of Miss Nightingale when
an officer OF one OF the highland regi.
ments which h&d suffered so cruelty in
the Crimea heard that the bust had
Just been completed and was ID Sir
Johns studio. Many Of the men in his
company had passed through the hos
pital at Scutari, and he obtained per-
mission from the sculptor to bring
some Of them to see 1t. Accordingly a
squad OF men one day marched into
the studio and stood in line. They had
no idea why they had been mustered
In so strange place. Without a word
OF warning the bust was uncovered.
and then, as by one impulse, the men
broke rank and with cries Of Miss
Nightingale. Miss Nightingale sur
rounded the model and, with hats on.
cheered the figure Of their de?oted
nurse until the roof rang. So sponta-
neous and hearty and so inspiring was
the whole scene that in after days Sir
John Steel declared 1t to be the great
est compliment Of his life.

and they will furnish the economical
power necessary to generate electricity
for the lighting aud other utilities con-
nected with the immense pier.
The motors consist Of upright cyIln-
drical wheels equipped with vertical
parallel blades revolving within the
stationary shield. The outside wheel or
shield consists Of series of dedectors
or guide blades set at such angles as
to harmonic all outside conflicting
forces Of water as they are jetted into
the interior of the wheel. The inside
or revolving wheel is equipped with
specially devised vanes. These vanes
are constructed of curved blades
against which, almost midway, are set
straight blades at right angles. This
arrangement is claimed to give the
motor an efficiency Of 80 per cent Of
all the water passing through the
wheel.
The inventor Of the motor claims
that the same principle can be applied
to a windmill.

days at Syracuse. In Sicily. one day at

causing thanksgiving to God. Then
they returned with him to Rome

For the hope Of Israel l am bound
with this chain" (2O,.
In Joel iii. 16. we read that In the
time OF trouble the Lord will be the
hope Of His people and the strength
OF the children of Israel. In l Tim.

Of Jesus Christ by the commandment
Of God our Saviour and Lord Jesus

lament l think we are safe in saying
that hope" always refers to the COM
ing of Christ for His saints. as in
Tit. Ii. 10; Heb. vi. 1920; Rom. viii.
1925. The hope of Israel would then
be the coming Of Christ as Israel's
Messiah to make Of them a righteous
nation and bless all nations through
them. This implies Jesus. as the seed
Of David. risen from the dead. and
also the resurrection Of the saints ac-
cording to Dan. xii. 1. 2. When Paul
stated his case before these Jews Of
Rome they said that they had not
heard Of his troubles In Jerusalem. nor
had any one spoken any harm Of him.
but they would like to hear what he
had to say about this sect. which they
knew was everywhere spoken against
