Freezing Compressed Air.

F'reezisg of compressed air pipes in
winter, says Frank Richards in the
Practical Engineer, is caused not by
the freezing of the air, but by part of
the water in the air. The capacity of
air to hold water decreases with fall
ing temperature, as in passing through
a long pipe in cold weather. This
moisture collects and bows along the
bottom of the pipe. Freezing of the
water takes place in freezing weather
accommodating ice until the pipe is COM
pletely checked. The remedies include:
burying the pipe in the ground cover
ing 1t with protective material such
as manure; providing means for draw
ing off the water at low points by
drainingi employing an after cooler
near the compressor with good
steam separator to take care of the
water, the use of which should leave
little or no water in the line.

We're not going to issue one. Well

can come and ask"
"And how about the public; it would

Damn the public; it's none Of their

IF you were in Nevada, where the
law requires every company to publish

it?"
Probably; but we are not. Anyway,
all this publishing of these statements
is an unnecessary expense"

in these days of indigestion
1t is often quite a question
| AS to what to eat and what to leave
alone;
For each microbe and bacillus
Has different way to kill us,
And in time they always claim us
for their own.
There are germs of every kind
In any food that you can find
In the market or upon the bill of
fare
Drinking waters just as risky
AS the so-called deadly whiskey,
And it's often a mistake to breathe
the air.
Some little bug is going to find you
some day;
Some little bug will creep behind you
some day;
Then he'll send for his bug friends
And all your earthly trouble ends;
Some little bug is going to find you
some day
The inviting green cucumber
Gets most everybody's number,
While the green corn has system
of it's own;
Though a radish seems nutritious
Its behavior is quite vicious,
And the doctor will be coming to
your home.
Eating lobster, cooked or plain,
Is but flirting with ptomaine,
While an oyster sometimes has a
lot to say;
But the clans we eat in chowder
Make the angels chant the louder
For they know that We'll be with
them right away.
Some little bug is going to find you
some day;
Some little bug will creep behind you
some day;
With a nervous little culver
He'll give cirrhosis of the liver;
Some little bug is going to find you
some day.
All those crazy foods they mix
Will boat us cross the river Styx
Or they'll start us climbing up the
milky way.
And the meals we eat in courses
Mean a hearse and two black horses
So before meal some people always
pray.
Lucious grapes breed pendicitis
And the juice leads to gastritis,
So there is only death to greet us
either way;
And fried liver's nice, but mind you,
Friends will soon ride slow behind you
And the papers then will have nice
things to say.
Some little bug is going to find you
some day,
Some little bug will creep behind you
some day;
Eat some sauce-they call 1t chilli
On your breast they'll place lily;
some little bug is going to find you
some day.

MISSOURI RIVER.
It's Chief Value Is for Drainage and
Power DEVELOPMENT.

The Missouri is one of the great
drainage channels of the United States
measuring in total length about 2400
miles. 1t drains 527,155 square miles,
territory as great as that embraced
in the states of New Jersey, Pennsyl-
vania, Ohio, Delaware, Maryland, Vir-
ginia, West Virginia, Kentucky, North
Carolina, Tennessee, South Carolina,
Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi.
Although the Missouri river may
never again be utilized as a means of
communication and transportation it
is destined to play large part in the
better development of its drainage
basin by furnishing water for irriga-
ton and for generating power.

only high grade men take up the

who looks lightly upon his oath of OBJ

GOLD COINAGE IN GERMANY TO BE
REMTNTED

A copyrighted article. by La Marquise de
Fontenoy, appearing in the Chicago Tribune
of October 81, states that Emperor Wilhelm
and his government have just issued decree
ordering all golden coinage of Germany to
be reminted between now and January 1. At
ter that date the gold coin now in existence
will cease to be accepted as legal tender.
The hording of gold coin under present
war conditions has been regarded in Germany
as an offense, subject to fine, Imprisonment
and confscation, but in spite of this, much
gold has been secretly retained. The new de-
cree is devised to compel it's surrender.
An order has also been issued by the Ger
man Empress to turn over to the treasury for
conversion into gold and silver coin all gold
and silver-plate in the royal and imperial
palaces, excepting only unique treasures of
historical and artistic value, which would be
irreplaceable.
The Empress also desires that the ladies of
her court and Berlin at large follow suit.
Also that they surrender tothe state all gold
and platinum mountings of their jewels.
The writer says that all donors have re-
ceived treasury notes for an amount equiva-
lent to the value of the gold and silver thus
surrendered.
