wanted 10 could be omitted altogether

Raising Water with Air.

AS all schoolboys know, suction
pump can theoretically elevate water
ouly about thirty-three and one-third
feet, column Of water of that height
balancing the atmospheric pressure. A
means has, however, been found Of
causing a suction pump to raise water
to height OF even sixty feet. The
invention was made by workman in
the French marine. Monsieur Eys-
serie, the chief engineer Of the ma
rine, remarked that one particular
pump showed extraordinary qualities
in drawing water from ships holds.
Inquiry developed the fact, says Har-
per's Weekly, that a workman had
thought of the plan of introducing air
into the water at the point where the
suction was applied, thus producing
an emulsion of air and water, which,
because of it's diminisher density, was
capable of being elevated to consider
ably greater heights than pure water
