It Is a business that requires a good deal of time, for the diver's life depends an Just bow carefully each of the several things are done, and no one sacrifices thoroughness to speed. The diver always has a comfortable place to alt on before be begins remov ing his shoes, after which he draws on a long pair of heavy woolen stockings over the legs of trousers. Over these again lie pulls on another pair of trousers, and then In* draws on the lower part of his diving suit proper. After that Is done be is in the hands of his valet, who is also tbf man who tends the air pipe and sign^ljg|»e after the diver has descended to the bottom of tbo sen. One of tbs curiosities of this opera tion Is the Immobility of the man who Is being dressed. He sits perfectly still with his hands clasped between bis knees, rarely speaking, his eyes fixed on some distant point as though be were absorbed In considering some weighty prohlcnv: Meanwhile the valet has been draw ing the rubber HUit up on tbo diver's arms ami part way up over his chest, mid then lie slips down over ids head tbo steel culrar.s that keeps the pres sure of Uie water away from his chest and also serves to support the weight of the copper helmet on his shoulders. At tills i»oint in the operation the tin can comes into # usc. and the valet takes from It the brass thumbscrefes that confine the upper edges ef the diving stilt between the cuirass and the four steel bands that an* fastened outside of it. Then the valet puts a block silk skullcap on the diver's bead, nod the diver wmMles over to the head of the ladder after a pair of heavy rubber bands ana sliwed over the rubber cuffs •of the suit, tor the diver works with bared hands. i Then come the final touches of the costume,, which arc always mode as near the head of the ladder as possible, for these operations consist of putting ou the. weighted shoes, tl»e weighted breast licit and tho ebppor helmet. The diver slips his feet into the shoes of •cast Iron, and Ids raiet and another helper buckle them around his instep. Then lie U-nds down, resting Ids arms ou the head of tin* ladder, while the bejt, on which ..tv fastened great, thick squares of lend. Is buckk>J around his lifcnst npd ncriM* Ids shoulders. Tho signal cord is fastened to the breastplate with leather thongs, and then th£ signal D given to tho man at the nlr pump to “work lively.” which means tint he Is to scud the wheel around at n much faster pace than he does when the diver is at work, this being done to get a good current of air passing through the pipe. I .east time of all does It take to put the helmet on, for It Is dropt>ed into place, and . after one half turn the thing Is done. Down goes the grotesque figure be low the surface uf the water, up from the helmet comes a constant stream of air bobbles, and if the diver is not working at too great a depth you can presently hear the dick of his tools ringing away at work. — New York 'A Sore *1 h4nw.
