I "Onoe upon atime, when Mme. AIM ;"y|jj was at Trieste," writes Henry 0. Lahse la 'Famous Singer* of Today," "she WM informed of the existence of a plot to htal v % v her off the stage.

I am very fond of a little practical joke myself and should be glad If you would allow me to join you on this occasion." I " 'With pleasure,' was the reply.

Opmlisu IX Which It May Be Made. Henry Souther said at a recent meeting) < of the National Association of Mephanieal j Engineers that the scientific and twnhatnal j designation of tube, whether seamed of wurilew, depended solely upon the tube itself and not upon the prooess followed In ita manufacture. Referring to the die* tionary you will And that the word " warnteas" means without seam, which ooaraa no light upon the subject. Turning to the word " earn," it is found that it is defined j ata joint, ?uture, or line of union, andknt in the la/it term we find the key. A tube Jointed in any way cannot be seamlsaa If j in the-primaiy stages of Its manufasfcrrs, it be 1^>, butt or look jointed, It cannot | fay any subsequent operation be deprived ( of the seam and therefore cannot be can- ] ldered when completed as being sMadeH.1 A strictly xwmlww tube may be mads fay any one of three operations?flart, m" billet may be by suoceesive steps punched into the form of a tube with extremely; thick sides, and these may then by the at- i dinary drawing prooeasss be reduced lot tube with thin walls; next, the billet may be bored or the blank may becast witka hole in it and in either o&se then drawn ' to the required dimensions; thirdly, the tnbe may be made by the capping prow,1 ' :yA which consist* in taking a disk of ths metal, forming it into a cup ahape^ gad* ally elongating the cup and reducing it In diameter and finally by this meant producing a tube. .: ' Each and all of these processes yield a tube which is absolutely seamless and about which there is and can bo no dispute.
