Rare Peruvian Ware.

Vessels Of odoriferous clay were I'm
ported early in the sixteenth century
from Peru, Chile and Mexico by the
Portuguese merchants, to which were
given the name of buccaros. So highly
was this ware esteemed that only the
wealthiest collectors could afford to
possess entire specimens. Broken
pieces were set in gold or silver or
ground to powder to be used to scent
cakes and confectlOns and to perfume
gloves and handkerchiefs. 1t was also
supposed to possess medicinal prop
critics and was prescribed by contem-
porary physicians for certain all
ments. The great demand for the
buccaros resulted in the alleged dis

and the potters of the time used them

the origin of the trouble there. In 1890
a decree was issued which suggests

are expressly enjoined not to i'll treat
or use abusive language to the ladies
Of their city, or the women Of low de-

The strenuth of Rinas.

Some elaborate calculations, backed
BY experiments. have been made 10 e.
termine the "breaking strength" Of
rings. 1t appears that ring Of ductIle
material like malleable iron will be
pulled ont into the form Of long link
before it breaks and that the ultimate
strength of the ring is virtually indie
pendent OF it's diameter. Fracture
finally occurs as the result of almost
pure tension. and the resistance to
breaking is little less than twice that
Of rod of the same cross section sub
iected to Al straight pull. As the ring
increases in diameter there appears to
be n slight approach toward equality,
with double the strength Of q bar.
Thus a three inch ring made OF three
quarter inch iron broke at nineteen
and one-haf tons; four inch ring at
nineteen and nine-tenths tons and six
inch ring at twenty tons, the strength
Of bar OF the same metal being ten
and one-half tons.
