(|, and that, if you value your life, you must not touch a thing?wood, metal j 1 " "> or ,-ioth?without first investigating it. How would you like to explore such t() A ;1- '' a ship with only a flashlight to guide you through the abysmal blackness, and with no means of communicating ~ with friends on the top deck once you 111! ; start on your perilous journey? This was the task assigned to a certain encineer in New York short I v after the hie at government seized the Interned Clef- ^ sliij? in tliis country, says the ' IT* ' Popular Srior.ro Monthly. It was a ^ men j tnsl fraught with the greatest danger, it ally, requiring an extraordinary degree of ^ -outh caution and patience, and calling for a l( rare display of courage, lhit so fear- : * . loss was this young engineer and so j ^ 'r V' successful was he in his undertaking 1 ' 1 that .10 hours after the sliiji In (pies- j te T tion rcaeln d the navy yard, the main ^ fore boilers were generating steam. t!oss, i Among the mat y interesting things token revealed by the intrepid investigator d pip were the location ol missing parts of . . ! the main engines, carefully hidden ' 1,11,1 away In the coal bu.ikers; the dlscovd and ffy Qf pnps nnf^ nuts which led to a 1 more, nilnute examination of the cylinders "v head and steam-cheris, where It was dla- 1 Allen- closed that parts had been removed and tollar- other parts carefully substituted to r ne_ conceal the omission; the loentlon.

V i,< Of experiments that a diamond does nl mi.;-. nn* cut ihe glass file-fashion, but forces or the particles apart, so that a contlnu- at u " ous crnek Is formed along the line of ularlv intended out. The crack once be- hi h en- gun, very small force is necessary to ?t t?d for carry It through the glass, and thus w r hit- the iilece is easily broken off. The di urned superficial crnck or cut need not be c< jf) t)ii deep; a depth, aeeordlng to fine mens- tr urenients, of a 200ti? part of one Inch Is L;ln' quite sufficient to accomplish tlie pur- nl a few poso, so that the application of much |R- force in using the diamond only wears 1 and out the gem without doing the work ijured an>' better. Numerous stones, sucli as sr iouslv Qu?rtz and other minerals, when is in the lnto Pr?Pcr form, will cut glass gi like a diamond, but are not so valuable II for that purpose, lacking the requisite st hardness and soon losing the sharp P< rrived edge necessary to make the operation m , Accl. a success. c! gineer _ ? e out- Birthplace.

Ii T ORROR OF DESERT WARFARE I List, Heat and Files Are Worat I Plagues From Which 8oldiera fl Suffer in Mesopotamia. . fl Hardships and discomforts of the fl rltish campaigns in Palestine and fl esopotamla are the thanies of many Iters written by soldi e* serving un?r the commands of General SliU rchlbald Murray, in Palestine, or ajor General Maude, In Mesopotamia. "If you want to see a muddle, you ight to see a camel convoy under & lellflre," writes one man from the elnlty of Ga/.n, In southern Pules* ne. "The natives who lead the mels run away at the llrst shot, and en the white men try to induce, by I the profanity they can muster, use camels to hurry out of range or uier the cover of a hill. All the time oil lives are being lost trying to save e convoy, which perhaps has the iter supply for thousands of men on e tiring line." I Mist, heat and Hies are the worst ree plagues of Mesopotamia from e soldiers' standpoint, writes one of e privates who suff'-red from tlieni.

R Chinese Printer's Job. H Chinese characters do not express mods although the pitch of the voice fl significant. Their letters are ldeo- H aphs, or writing of Ideas or things. ence the Chinese have no nlphahet, rlctly speaking. For this reason, says Kj opular Science Monthly, the Chinese jfj nst employ an astounding number of % taracters. It talrea about 10,000 char- 1 rters to print a book la the Chinese n tnguage; yet sometimes an entire 1 tough t or a whole sentence Is repro- 3 nted by one character! The word a iiack" Is one character, and so la 3 mother," "dead," "yea," "yellow," and fi great many other words.
