Water Coolers for Journals.

An invention designed to overcome
much of the unnecessary train delay is
the water cooler for journals. The hours
lost on railway schedules owing to over
heated, blazing journal boxes mount into
startlngly high figures of wasted time
To-day, when a lifc's work depends for
its successful completion upon the con-
servation of these hours, often even Of
minutes, any invention which tends to-
ward the diminishing of useless delays
strengthens the attack of each individual
worker.
The cooler consists of tank which is
clamped upon the journal box, a nozzle
for the spray ing of the cooling stream of
water and a thermostatic valve for the
spray control. The nozzle is inserted on
the rising side of the journal SO that the
water will tend to be carried up under the
brass. When the journal becomes hot.
