\ Jri :.... ?iibmw??im i COOLING TOWKILS. A CLEVER, SIMPLE, BUT VERY VALUA BLE YANKEE DEVICE. By Its I'se t'Hel lu Steaitiuiaklns IR Savei Hot Water From the CoudeiiHer Met b au Air RJast and Cooled by Kvaporatio oil a * ery simple rrmcipie. At sotno of tlie large power plants i and near Xew York t lie eye of the visit< or the passerby is attracted hv a new an unusual feature?a circular steel town looking like the tall stand ]>i]>o of soni high level water system. It is. howevei no tank. There is water in it, hut imlee this is peifcactually leaking out?in fact the percolation of the wator down war from top to bottom is what gives the di vice its unique value. It is tho coolin tower of a self cooling condenser?one < those numerous labor and power savin Yankee inventions that have placed ti where we now stand as a nation of invent ors and engineers. Every ono knows that there are tw prhioipnl types of steam engines?the nor oomlcnsing, in which the exhaust steal escapes into the air. making the hoars< putting sound so familiar in the locoim tivoandtho steam tug, and tho conden? ing. iu whicJi it is delivered into a con denser, where it is cooled down and turn ed back into water. In the former tvp the piston lias to work against the pres sure of the atmosphere?ahoufc 15 pound to the square inch. lis tlie latter it lia only to overcome the pressure of tho vapo in tho condenser, which is much less, a the condensation of the steam causes i partial vacuum; hence the condensing en glne is much the more economical of tin two, saving fully 25 per cent of the stcan ?and hence of the fuel?required for th other. Why, then, are not condensing engine universally emjuoyeur .-siuifiinii's ue cause the uso of the condensing device i not practicable, as on a locomotive. J^til oftener beat uso it requires an unlimitei supply of water. Cold water is tho mean employed to condense the steam and as i becomes warmer in the process it eanno bo used over again; hence engines thatar not situated near a largo water supply?oi a river bank, for instance?cannot avai themselves of the condensing principle am profit by its fuel saving power. And evei where a river is near, land on its bank i bo often so much moro expensive that tli manufacturer prefers to go farther awa; where he can buy at a lower price, even i he has to use a noncondensing engine. But why not cool tho heated condense water and use it again? This hns bee: tried over and over, moro or less clumsil una incueciivt-'iy, aim it i? vmui; ? nau ? dono successfully in tho cooling towers a] ready mentioned. Methods previously ii use employ shallow ponds to cool th water by surface evaporation, but these ar out of the question in a largo city?or pan on the roof, which are awkward and tak up room. The cooling tower, which ha satisfactorily solved tho problem and offer to the manufacturer the welcome chance o saving a large proportion of his fuel, ha been in use for some time in a primitiv and crude form in the southern state? where the condenser water was allowed t cool by trickling through a mass of brush Later, in Germany, tho same result wa effected by allowing it to blow over a nes 01 pipes. Ill til (J piTIUUtUU lunil UMJ M? tower is packed with layer on layer o vitrified tiles, set up on end. Throng these, from the top to the bottom of th tower, tho heated condenser water trie kles, while u powerful air blast is blow; upward through it from u rotary fan a tlio base. When the water has reached th bottom, it is cool enough to use again i tho condenser. A little of it?from 2} to 0 per cent?has evaporated in the proi ess, but this loss is moro than mado u by tho condensed exhaust steam that i added as it does its work in the condense! In passing through tho tower tlio watc is cooled from about 120 degrees to at lea? the temperature of the outsido air, chiefi bv the evaporation induced l>y the air bias that passes through tho tiling. The prii ciplo is exactly the same as when one cool his moist hand by blowing on it. Strange ly enough, tho cooling is greater in sun xner than in winter, for, though in winu the air is colder, it is much nearer tli point of saturation and will take up ver little evaporation, and evaporation is tli chief thing in tho cooling. Direct escape of the heat by contat with tho air blast and by radiation throug tho steel sides of the tower helps, but it i relatively unimportant. So, with the ai of this device, the condensing engine, wit its great economy, is today within tli reach of every manufacturer in the lam instead of perhaps half of them. Theopcr; Uon of the tower is inexpensive, as tl cost of working is only that of pumpin tho water to the top ami operating tho fai and this is slight compared with the sin ing that results from using condensation, The towers tako up little room. The vary in size from 25 feet in height by feet in diameter, which is suitable for a 4 horsepower engine, to one 30 feet in licigl Viv 5fi font-, in diameter. for an en trine ( 1,500 horsepower. One of the towers h: for some time been in ukc at the Grand A1 enue Edison electric lighting station i Brooklyn, in connection with a 50o liorsi power engine. It must not be imagined, however, thr tho usefulness of a cooling tower stoj with its employment as described abovi As its namo implies, it may bo used air where where water is to be deprived ( superfluous heat. For instanco, in tl manufacture of ice, where water is froze by the evaporation of liquefied amnioni; The ammonia, which has been heated i tho process of liquefaction by compressioi is cooled by means of water, and with tl .? st/.nlitw* tine wjifov f*jin 1 made ready for use a second time. Like nearly all roally serviceable device: the cooling tower is provokingly simpli Any one might think ol' it?only nobotl did, until Yankee ingenuity took a liii from the crude devices of yesterday an put hundreds of thousands?actually < potentially?into tlje pockets of America manufacturers, miners and others wl have occasion to uso tho steam engine.Philadelpliia Press.

J)., of St. Louis, says that the best food for those suttering front typhoid fever is the banauna. In this disease, he explains, the lining membrane of the small intestines becomes intensely inflamed and engorged. Eventually it begins sloughing away in spots, leaving well defined ulcers. At these places the intestinal walls become dangerously thin. A solid food, if taken into the stomach, is likely to produce perforation of the intestine and tlire results will follow. Therefore solid foods or foods containing a large amount of innutrilous substances, as compared with nutritious substances, are dangerous and are to be avoided. The bananna, although it may be classed as a solid food, containing as it does 05 per cent nutrition, does not possess suflicient waste to irritate these sore spots.

I IE 111 0111: I W 1 H This is not an aovkhti.sk- " ment for repairing buggies, but let us suppose having your buuuy repaired and the workman would make some spokes in the wheels shorter than the rest, bore the hole out of center and out of plumb and have the axel crooked. Oo you think any workman could a alter such defects without a great deal of expense, new wheels and so y 011 ? You know he can't, you can t see this. If on the other hand, you have your watch repaired and It is done in a similar way, and may even be adjusted to positions with paper wedges and the like; you e can't see it but the defects are there and new parts will have to be substituted. We have all the tools to repair your watch in a workman- f like manner, and having served a regular apprenticeship lu WATCHMAKING * are able to restore any broken part s to Its original condition and guar- t anteetlme. If you have any broken J watch, remember Watcli Repairing' \ Is my SPECIALTY, and will be done as cheap as first class work can be done. Satisfaction guaran teed or money refunded. R. C.
