Destroying the Odor of Smoke.

\ new invention has been patented
which will proba bly, give great com
fort to the smokers wife. since it
banishes the odor of smoke. 1t is real
ly lamp which has the property of
consuming smoke. The invention re-
sembies an ordinary alcohol lamp in
appearance Its distinctive feature is
piece of. platinum at the tip of its
burner. When the platinum is made
to glow by the alcohol flame arising
from the burner it gives off formalde-
hyde in minute quantities. This over
comes the smoke OF any other impur-
ity in the atmosphere. When this
moke-consuming lamp is lighted in a
room where smoking is i'll progress it
prevents the accumulation of stale
smoke. which usually fills room the
morning after a man has entertained
his friends at a smoker.
This lamp can also be used as a dis
injector. II perfume is placed in its
bowl. either With. or instead of, the
alcohol fuel. it becomes Il powerful
atomizer. permeating the entire apart
ment with penetrating fragrance
that lasts for surprisingly long
period.

New Means Of Ventilation.

| Sentl1ating huge factory building
by means Of ornamental columns or
pillars is. a unique method put into
operation with excellent results in an
| automobile factory lately completed in
Detroit. The pillars are hollow and
serve as great ducts through which
purified air, cool in the summer and
warm in the winter, is circulated
through the different rooms by fans
located on the roof of the building.
The factory contains a million square
rect OF floor area and incloses 11,00O, 900
cubic feet of space. The wall surface
contains 65 per cent of window space,
necessitattng great waste of heat
In winter yet by means of the ven
tllatlng columns the tempGa e.ure of
the factory is kept practicspe uniform
throughout the year.
There are eight of these fans. To-
Gated in pent houses upon the roof
Each house contains 6N9 centrifugal
fan. capable of circulating 10000 cubic
feet of air an hour, and - air-wash-
ing chamber The air is heated in
winter b* hot water obtained from
| jackets surrounding the large gas en-
gihes which supply the power for the
automobile works. 1T is cooled in the
summer by being passed through an
ice-chamber in the basement.
