It must have sufficient material to be independent ofchanges in temperature during the process of combustion. Thesuperheater must act like an accumulation during the timewhen fresh coal is put on the grate. 4. It must be so constructed as to be applicable to differentkinds of boilers. 5. It must be absolutely safe in service and very durable inorder to avoid annoying interruptions of service for repairs. Mr. Garbe, of Berlin, general locomotive superintendent ofthe Prussian State Railways, was the first railway engineer tofully appreciate the value of Mr. Schmidts system of
