!. LARGEST WATER TANK. :
!. :. :. :. :. :. e. :. = = )

The tanks and mains for the new
Overhead reservoir at Tallah for the
supply of filtered water To the city OF
Calcutta have been completed and were
put into operation on May l6, 1911
This tank is the largest of its kind in
the world. II is "A huge structure $50
feet square and 16 feet deep, and stands
on a steel framework. embedded in
two and one-half feet OF concrete
which is 30 feet high. II covers an
area of two and onehalf acres and the
total weight as it stands today full of
water is about 10000 tons. The water
alone weighs $4,000 tons and the tank
bottom 500 tons There are thirty-two
miles of steel jolsts i'm the vertical coll
umns and bracings. and in the foun
dations there are twenty miles of steel
joists and tiebars.
The capacity of the tank is about
100000 gallons of water. and the ordi-
nary daily consumption OF Calcutta is
estimated at 3O,OOO.OOO gallons. The
tank is designed to act as balancer
and to assist the pumps when they
can not send sufficient water into the

zeal city like Calcutta there is natural
ly a tremendous fuctuation between
the minimum and maximum demand.
varying from the rate OF seven and
Cne-half gallons per head of the popu-
lation per day at night TO seventy
five gallons per head per day during
the hours of maximum demand dur
ing the daytime and the system of
pumping direct into the mains is not
elastic enough TO meet this demand.
During the night hours when the
pumps are providing more water than
is required, the excess quantity will

Then. when there is great demand
during the day ana the mains can not
be kept full by the pumps the reserve
supply from the tank comes into op-
Grafton automatically. When the de-
mand that the pumps can not meet
the full pressure from the
pumps INTO the mains automatically
cuts off the flow from the tank. and
this flow comes into operation again
the pumps are not keep
ing the mains full.
The mains designed to distribute the
water supply throughout the city are
also worthy of note. one, six feet i'm
diameter. conducts the water 10000
feet from the tank to the extreme
north end of Circular road, and a sec
ond. five feet i'm diameter, conducts il
$4,000 feet from that point via Circular
road and Dhurrumtollah to the corner
of wellington square and Wellington
street. These mains are, OF course.
by a network of smaller
mains making direct delivery through
out the various streets of the city.
The total cost of the tank, new mains
and new installation, etc, has been
about $1,55O,OOO.

his income as much his wife's as his
own and not put her in the position

ABOUT THE ZIG i-~-,co?ES
difference Hete, sen Sig : ;1c1 at One
Enc and Lietie One at
she CtHer.

People sometimes wonder why a
telescope has two glasses. one at the
big end and one at the little end, and
they want to know the difference. The
glass at the big end is to gather
light. 1t is simply big eye. II it il
a hundred times bigger than the eye
in your head it will gather hundred
times more light. 1t gathers the rays
OF light coming from a star and bends
them all into a common meeting
point, called a focus. which is a pic
ture of the star You can look at this
picture of the star with your naked
eye II you like. But you can see it
better and examine it more closely
II you look at it with a small magni
Tying glass. And this is the glass at
the small end of the telescope. 1t
magnifies the picture made by the big
glass at the other end of the instru-
ment. All telescopes are built on this
principle. Sir William Herschell was
the first to arrange matters a little
Inherently. He took away the glass
from the big cad and admitted the
rays coming straight into the tube In
parallel lines. Then at the bottom Of
the big tube he placed bright. con
cave mirror. made of FURNISHED metal.
When the entering rays fell upon this
mirror they we're again bent to a
point called a focus. which was the
picture of the star To look at this
picture he had to place the little
magnirying glass at the SIDE Of the
tube. because the mirror had stopped
up its lower end.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS
Some Practical Suggestions that
1t Will Pay Everybody to
Read Carefully

Put the screens on the Windows
and doors before the flies appear.
The large blue flies are now on the
wing.
Allow nothing to stand about
which attracts flies. Avoid throw.
ing scraps of vegetables or animal
matter on the ground near the
house. Waste water from the kitch
en-, thrown continuously IN one
place, renders the door-yard insight
~ and unsanitary.
Don't neglect to screen the cellar
windows. The cellar needs daily
airing; and unless the windows are
screened. flies and many other PESTS
will enter.
Air the cellar during the cool
hours of the day, and keep it closed
during the remaining hours. This
will keep the cellar always fresh
and cool, and free from Gampness.
Whitewash the ceiling and walls
of the cellar in the spring and fall.
This makes it light, as we'll as clean
and sweet Although lime is of low
germicidal value, free use of it
aids in preventing bacterial growth.
