In order to Illustrate AN attack on

The pugnacity of these goats is such

Cement Gun.

There Is a cement gun which II
used to apply q mortar covering ia
structural steel work. A mixture Of
dry sand and cement Is shot from Z
nozzle by compressed air. A second
hose delivers to the same nozzle Z
supply of water under pressure, and
the mixture Of sand. cement, and wa,
ter is shot out with a velocity Of about
three hundred and fifty feet per SEQ
'ond. The nozzle is arranged to pro
!.duce a thorough wetting Of the ma,
.terial. AS the mixture strikes the
surface to be covered the coarse sand
grains rebound until the fine cement
mortar, which adheres Immediately;
has formed plastic base in which
the coarse particles become embedded

then rapidly built up. -
One Of these guns has been used In

FoRTY-sIx MILES OF BOOKS
British Museums Library 10 orsatest
In the World and Keeps on "
Growing. = H.

Many Americans must have studied
as well as sat beneath the great dome
of the British museum, and few Of
them will fail to remember the cour-
tesies which were always 90 gener-
ously extended there by D. q. K.
Fortescue, the keeper Of printed
books" The retirement Of that official,
after forty-two years of service,
focuses new attention upon what has
been called the greatest library in tho
world When Panizzi took charge Of
the museum In 1887, it had colleo-
ton of 100000 volumes, all of them
badly arranged and poorly catalogued
When he relinguished his charge,
thirty years later, order had been
brought out Of the chaos, and there
we're 100000 books in the library.
Doctor Fortescue succeeded him In
1879, and since that time the contents
of the museum have grown by leaps
and bounds: It now holds about A.
100000 volumes, arranged On shelves
which. II put end to end, would stretch
distance Of 46 miles, with the num=
Der increasing at the rate Of $4,000
volumes a year.
In 1880 work was begun on tho
great catalog, and there are now $50
volumes of it, from Is to 20 being
added every year. A complete set Of
these printed lists-and they have
not yet been brought up to date
costs nearly $500. 1t is an interesting
fact that this mighty collection Of
books Is the youngest of the great
libraries Of Europe, and began with
out any regular income.-Boston
