Not only this but every square inch in the shell is subjected to two times this pressure as the boiler has two sides or in other words, each square inch has a corresponding opposite square inch, and the seam of shell must sustain this pressure, and as a single riveted boiler only affords 62 per cent of the strength of solid iron.

per square inch to burst this shell if it were solid, that is if it had no seam, a single seam affords 62 per cent of the strength of shell, 1406 x .62 = 871 lbs.

per square inch to burst this shell if it were solid, that is if it had no seam, a single seam affords 62 per cent of the strength of shell, 1406 x .62 = 871 lbs.

to burst the seam if single riveted; add 20 per cent if double riveted.

Find the percent of strength to the solid iron in a single-riveted seam, 1/4 inch plate, 5/8 inch rivet, pitched or spaced 2 inch centers.

Here we found the presents, which had been given to our late captive, deposited carefully on the ground; but the bag, instead of having been opened at the mouth, was torn asunder near the seam at the bottom; a fishing line that had been given to him was also left behind, which surprised us the more because the native had one of his own making attached to his log, and therefore must have known its use.

The beds of phosphate which English enterprise has turned to so good an account in this part of France, and which are followed in the earth just like a seam of coal or a vein of metal, are merely layers of bones.

"It has collapsible aluminium centre seam," he retorted rapidly, "which can be used as a tent pole in severe weather.

The next moment they closed this disparted seam in their drapery, and opened a side one upon the still, grave faces of the surrounding mountains; and, for a few minutes, the smile went round from one to the other, and the great centurions of the hills looked happy and almost human in the gleam.

The silver moon just peeping over the mountain, throwing into grand relief its rugged seam-scarred sides, the calcium light; the pine trees with waving plumes, rising file on file like shrouded specters, form the stage setting; the mountain brook, on whose bosom the moon leaves a streak of molten silver, the footlights; while all the myriad voices of the night, harmoniously blended, are the orchestra.

A stout plank on each side raises the canoe a foot, forming a gunwale secured by knees, the seam at the junction being payed over with a black pitch-like substance.

These experiments, in general, have produced excellent results when considered merely in the light of heat production, but, in advocating their systems, the inventors seem to have overlooked the all-important item of cost.

But the second requires more scientific arrangements than those that seem to be generally adopted, and, as carbonization is now tending to constitute a special industry, we think it is of interest to give here a typical plan for a plant of this kind.

The fact that platforms and boxes used for mixing lime mortar seem to resist decay has repeatedly suggested the use of lime for preserving timber.

This was applied to the railroad bridge connecting the mainland with Galveston Island (experiment No. 12), and so well did it seem to succeed at first that it was proposed to extend the process to railroad trestlework, to fencing, to supports for houses, and to telegraph poles.

It was then applied to some ties on the Illinois Central Railroad, where it did not succeed, and to some on the Chicago and Northwestern, where they seem to have been lost sight of, being few in number, so that your committee has not been able to learn the result.

[Illustration: IV] IV.If the comet have satellites, we shall see, according to the relative position of these, several tails appear, and these will seem to form at different epochs.

If c and s be the positions of a comet and a satellite, it will be seen that if, while the comet is proceeding to c', the satellite, through its revolution around it, goes to s', the traces formed at c and s will be extended to d and d', and that we shall have two tails, c' d and s' d', which will be separated at d and d' and seem to be confounded toward c' s'.

Each drop of water will recede radially in space, the spiral will keep forming at the jet, and if, through any reason, the latter alone be visible, we shall see a nearly rectilinear jet that will seem to revolve with the pipe.

Although chlorine is almost constantly present in plant tissues, it is not indispensable for most plants, and for those assimilating it in small amounts, our rainfall would seem to offer an ample supply.

Doubtless the work may seem slow and the time may seem long, but every good deed counts, and no prayer is unheard.

Doubtless the work may seem slow and the time may seem long, but every good deed counts, and no prayer is unheard.

It may not at first seem to the reader so important, but when he considers that, for instance, Utah and other Western States have abolished Mormonism in the same manner, or have agreed to give equal treatment to the Japanese and Chinese in the same mannerby an enabling act of Congress, ratified and perpetuated in the State Constitutionhe will see the importance of the question.
