Treating Water Difficulties in

Other Items of General Interest
in Railroad Circles.

The usual method of treating boiler
waters containing sulphates of lime and
magnesia is by the use of soda asn'
which, though fairly efficient and sat
isfactory, is open to two objections
eays the Railway AEe-Gazette. The
first is the expense of the soda ASH
and the second is. that while the chem
ical reaction removes the hard scale
making sulphates of lime and magne-
eia it leaves soluble sulphate or Soda
which increases the tendency 10 foam.
This latter has been one Of the prin-
ciual difficulties connected with water
treatment for locomotives by SODA
salts as the foaming tendency Is very
ohiectionabIe. A new method of treat
ing such waters is now being USED IN
England for both locomotive ana STA
tionary boilers. and although the pro.
cess is successful in preventing haI 90
scale from waters containing 70 TO 81
grains incrusting matter TO the galloh'
nc chemicals are used. and 1t Is. tnere-
fore inexpensive as compared WITH
soda ash treatment - .
The apparatus, which Is called d
-''IuminatOr." consists OF thin sheet OF
aluminium which is corrugated. 10
inch wide and about 1 inch deep, the
dimensions varying with the amount
of water to be treated A strip OF me
corrugated metal or 4 feet long Is
set in an almost vertical position ana
the water flows down over 1t, being
fed from a heaoer through small tupes,
each of which leads into one OF the
corrugations.
There is no chemical change produce
ed on the water by the apparatus ana
the hardness remains the same. Ine
effect seems to be due to the action
of light. which in some way changes
calcium sulphate so that it does not

These precipitates are easily washed

box. strange thing connected with
the process IS that it is found ncces-
sary to give the apparatus IL hours
continuous rest during daylight every
seventh day. and it then can be used

of the apparatus and the uncertainty
of the explanation may cause one TO

MEXICAN PACIFIC ASSURED.
Projectors Deny Connection With
Hartman Lines,

Mexico City, Mex, March 2S.-The
building of the Mexican Pacific rail-
road is now said to be assured. Gov.
Damian Flores of the state of Guer-
zero has just granted the company a
subsidy of $4,000 per kilometer on
about 175 kilometers of track that
will be built between the port of Acap-
ulco and the port of Zihuatanejo. This
state aid is supplemented by a liberal
donation of land for terminals and
right of way. The survey for the pro-
posed road has already been made,
and the construction will be pushed
forward rapidly. 1t was recently re-
ported that this road was to be a
link in the Southern Pacific railroad
of Mexico, now being built down the
Pacific slope to Topic, and that it was
planned to extend the road all the
way down to the isthmus of Tehuante-
pee, where it would connect with the
Pan-American and the Tehuantepec
National lines.
The promoters of the Mexican PACT
nc deny that their project has any
connection with the Southern Pacific
They own big tract of land in the
coast territory of the state of Guer-
zero, and the chief object of the pro-
posed road is to bring about the COL
onization and development of that
property. The route of the new line
between Acapulco and Zfhuataneio
will parallel the Pacific coast the en-.
tire distance.

MILLIONS FOR A TUNNEL.
New Haven Railroad Would Sink
$4,000, 900 in One Hole.

$16,OOO,OOO in One Hole.
Boston, Mass, March 23.-Timothy
r. Byrnes, vice president of the New
Haven railroad, told the legislature
OF this state that the New Haven rail-
road is willing and ready to build a
tunnel between the North and South
station in Boston. 1t is ready to spend
$16sOOO,OOO on the project and is hop
ing it will have the opportunity. EIece
trihcation would be carried along with
the construction work, he said, and
in three years the tunnel could be
built and by that time part of the
suburban service out of Boston would
be electrified. He made the statement
at hearing on bill for the construc-
ton OF the tunnel. The proposition
advanced by him was:
IF Boston will buy the land for the
street the company will build the tun-
mel under that street and will pay the
city 100000 for the sub-surface
right to build under 1t and will build
the street also" BY this proposition
he estimated it would cost the city
about $1O,000.000 to secure the land;
it would cost the New Haven company
$2,OOO.OO0 for the sub-surface. right
and $2,000,000 for the construction of
the road, $5.500.000 for. building the
tunnel 100000 for the connection
at either end, and $4,500,00O for the
requirement of additional land at the
two terminals. If the city does not
desire to provide the route, the COM
pany could not afford to build the
tunnel straight, but would carry il
around by way of Atlantic avenue

Grows Hair
on Bald Heads
A Remedy that Costs Moth
ing if 1t Fails to do as
Claimed

Resorcin is one of the latest and
most effective germ killers discovered
by science, and in connection with
Beta Naphthol, also a powerful anti
septic, a com bination is formed which
destroys the germs which rob the hair
of it's nutriment, and thus creates a
clean and healthy condition of the
scalp, which prevents the development
of new germs
Pilocarpine is a we'll known agent
for restoring the hair to its natural
color, where the loss of color has been
due to a disease. Yet it is not a col
oring matter or dye.
The famous Rexan "93" Hair Tonic
is chiefly composed OF Resorcin, Beta
Naphthol and Pilocarpine, combined
with pure alcohol because of it's cleans
ing and anti septic qualities. 1t makes
the scalp healthy, nourishes the hair,
revitalizes the roots, supplies hair
nourishment and stimulates a new
growth.

personal guare ntee that the trial will
