crete or stone wall, and the other the armored safe proper. The wall section is stationary, but within it the <armored safe is revolved by means of j an electric motor fitted close to the lower ball bearings on which the safe is pivoted. During business hours the safe is | stationary, entrance to it being gamed thiough the doors. During this period electric accumulators witnin the safe are connected with an outride charging circuit, which connection is bioken when the closing hour approaches. A time switch, likewise within the safe, is set to stop the motor at any given time the next morning or the following morning, should -the—day—be—Saturday, The - doors are closed, and the motor is itarted by an outside switch, which, however, is not capable of stopping it again. The safe then commences to revolve, and continues this movement at a speed of about three feet a second until stopped by the time switch. Rotating at such a speed, the surface of tht safe at any given point' is continually changing which makes impossible a successful attack by "cutting burners.” Again, as the safe is designed as a polygon, the distance be- ; tween the armor and the melting instrument in the hands of the burglar is changing constantly, and with proper distance. Any contact between the burner and" the rotating wall j Would, to say the least, place* the

burner out of commission and endanger the operator. The same may be said of any other tool used in an attempt. to break the safe open.—Popular Magazine.
