WORLD’S BIGGEST GAS MAINS . Pipes With a Six-Foot Diameter Have Been Placed In Astoria-Bronx Tunnel. The big gas mains in the AstoriaBronx tunnel at New York are probably the largest cast iron pipes ever made, says Popular Science. The in- > tarnal diameter is two feet three-quar-ter inches and the length twelve feet The one end has the ordinary bell form; the other the spigot. The weight of one length Is about 26,000 pounds. These mains are laid parallel and run down a shaft at Astoria on Long Island, along a tunnel 225 feet below . the surface, under East river, and then up a second shaft at Ono Hundred and Thirty-second street and East river. They are to carry gas into the Bronx, the most rapidly-growing borough of New York city. It Is not an impossibility that the tunnel may some time be flooded with water. Under such circumstances it would not be desirable to have the long lines of iron tubes begin to float. While the pipes are heavy enough to • prevent their floating, the margin is not great. The weight of water displaced by a cylinder twelve feet long and seventy-seven and one-half inches in diameter is between 24,000 and 25,000 pounds. The overlap where bell end encompasses spigot end complicates the matter a little, but after all allowances are made, there would probably be a good solid weight to the , pipe lines If the tunnel were full of water. The amount of lead used to calk the joints is about 225 pounds per joint. The mains rest on concrete saddles set six feet apart WORK FOR THE GEOLOGIST Question of the Origin of Ore Deposits Has So Far Not Been Definitely Settled. Steamboat springs, Nevada, figure prominently in discussions of the origin of ore deposits. The waters of these springs contain the precious ! metals in minute quantities, and the sinter deposited by thejn contains several minerals that are common constituents of ores, as well as small quan- , titles of many of the rare metallic ' constituents of ore deposits, including ' gold and silver. Such springs, there--1 fore, suggest to geologists that many and perhaps most ore-bearing veins , have been formed by hot waters rising from great depths, which have brought their metal contents up in solution ' and deposited them In open spaces or Assures in the rocks through which the waters passed, the deposition of some ores being influenced by chemical reaction with the surrounding rock. 'On the other hand, many ore deposits are undoubtedly formed in other ways, for some are unquestionably of sedimentary origin and the metal content of some others has been - carried down, redeposited, and concentrated by rainwater that descended into the earth’s crust, but the "hydrothermal” origin—that is, their deposition from ascending hot water —of many of the more valuable ore deposits is indicated by the close relation observed at many places between mineral veins and eruptive rocks. j _________________ ! Arctic Adventure Overlooked. J In saying that Bradley Land has already appealed to one explorer, I must tell briefly of an attempt to reach it which was made in 1914 and : 1915 by Messrs Rudolph Franke and Arthur Haack and which failed partly cn account of unusual ice conditions. They sailed from Quebec on July 4, 1914, on the S. 8. Guide, with the Canadian arctic explorer and fur ■ trader, Capt J. Bernier, who agreed . to leave them at the entrance of Jones ; sound. On account of bad ice, they i were unable to reach either Etah or Jones sound. After a summer spent j' in fighting the ice floes of Baffin bay, they were finally nipped just south of the entrance of Lancaster sound and I forced to winter there. While out hunting one day a great blizzard came I on in which Mr. Haack was frozen to 'i death. This ended Mr. Franke’s hopes , of trying to reach Bradley Land and ; he returned to Quebec with Captain ‘ i Bernier to find himself a prisoner of | war, a unique ending to an arctic voy- , age of exploration. —From a Letter by [ ; Edwin Swift Balch in Scientific Amerh icaa> War’s Huge Demands. r In the British house of commons L Harold J. Tennant, parliamentary un- j j der secretary of the war oflice, illustrated the tremendous development of ' the army, by saying that, whereas in peace time under two million articles j of apparel, such as tunics, boots and ” similar articles, had sufficed since the ! war began, they had produced 117,- i 000,000 of these articles, while the stores purchased would have lasted 140 normal years. Tongue-Twisting Maine Names. Maine could supply names in history as tongue-twisting as most of the European battlefields, for example: Annabessacook, Bauneg-Beg, Eggemoggin, Kokadjo. Mattamiscontis, Mattawamkeag, Oquossoc, Pattagumpus, Wytopitlock. Safe Bet. One Yale professor has secured probably much-desired publicity by the assertion that the value of a baby is >9O. Now, wagers are two to one that he has no baby of his own; or if he has ahy, he is not ready to dispose of anv of them at the value named.

MANY a corset is ruined during the first day of its active service because it is not laced correctly. Few women tak< the trouble to install triple mirrors which are required to correctly lace the olc style garment. The result is that the lacing I is made once, a knot tied and the garment put on without any regard to lacing. With a Gossard you can see just how io ad just your corset—the lacing in front—if sight, where you can quickly lace the corset You can do without a mirror if you like. Our expert fitters daily report the words of approval voiced by new converts to the Gos sard front lace idea. Your corset will fi hetter and look better if it is correctly laced in front. Try a Gossard tomorrow.. Models at $2.00 $2.50, $3.50 and up. We will expect you.
