The Crosby Steam Gauge & ValveCompany, of Boston, have recently got A Honeymoon Car. The Kursk-ZarkofF Railway, in Rus-sia, is reported as advertising a specialcar for honeymooners, which is de-signed and furnished with the very lat-est luxuries. An engineer and an ar-chitect planned it, the decorations arein the best style, and polite female at-tendants look after the comfort of thehappy couples who travel. None butthe newly wed are allowed to use thiscar, which is ingeniously built to ac-.

The most striking featureof the new Crosby indicator is the factthat the spring is placed outside on astand above the moving parts, where itremains cool under all conditions of error arises from heat, there-fore, is not present in this spring is easy to get at and itsbeing always cool permits of its beingreplaced without discomfort to the oper-ator. Another new feature of this in-dicator is in the size and shape of thepiston. This piston has an area of Isq. in. and is in form the central zoneof a sphere. The piston is practicallya universal joint and adjusts itself to thetortional strains of the spring whenoperating the pencil mechanism. Thepencil mechanism is attached to a rodwhich is connected to the piston by aball and socket joi
