Remarkable Experience In a Lock
In Compressed Air; '
AT FORTY POUNDS PRESSURE
The Way It Feels When, the Valve I
...First Opened and the Chamber Filli
With the Inrushing Air and Fog.
Vhy You Don't Collapse or Explode.
; 'As the lockkeeper turns' the valre,
'writes A. . W. Rolker In Appleton'i
Magazine, there is a scalp " raisins
screech as If yonr ear were next thfl
sa7ety valve of a locomotive blowing
steam, and as the inrushing air ex
pands it fills the tiny chamber with
fog so dense that you cannot see your
hand before your eyes. Wider and
wider, the valve is opened, the fog be
coming even denser 7and the racket
increasing until the air fairly drones
and your eyes and eardrums and your
very scalp tremble with the air that
Is vibrating about you. For the first
time In your life - you realize that
Bound may inflict physical pain and
that there is a possibility that it may
kill. .-":-.. .. . ... "-.
Ho sooner " Is the big valve opened
than you feel tEfe pressure against your
eardrums. , A big wad of cotton seems
thrust into each ear, and two big fin
gers seem to push the wads more and
more firmly until each time- when you'
swallow or-blow Into your nose -the
sensation disappears only to begin
anew. Should ; you purposely delay
swallowing, within twenty seconds the
pain becomes - intense and finally ex
cruciating, as lf a pair of knitting nee
dies were being pushed deep into your
ears. - .. ;. . - ' " '-',:
x Nothing short of the faith that oth
ers successfully withstand these sen
sations prevents you from becoming
unduly excited, for actually you are
in the throes of about as disagreeable
a situation as you care to meet. For
the eternity of half - a minute the
racket and fog and ear pains continue.
Then the noise ceases as suddenly as It
began. Out of the fog comes the voice
of your guide:
"Feeling all right? Ears all right?
No trouble to breathe? Oh, you'll be
all right!" Again the valve screeches
and the air drones, - the . top . of your
head throbs, and you are shaken with
in and without
Gradually, after the lapse of ten
minutes, when the pressures in the
heading and the lock become more
equalized, the din begins to slacken;
then It falls more and more and fades
to nothing, after which the'lockman
opens the heading door and you gaze
upon another length of "tube" like that
you left behind. . -
How does it feel to be under forty
pounds pressure? There Is no sensa
tion to it none whatever which, is
the trouble, for in case your heart is
going to give out there Is no warning
symptom until too late. Against ev
ery square foot of the surface of your
body is a pressure of 5,760 pounds, and
the only thing that prevents you from
being squashed is the 5,760 pounds
per square foot pressure Inside of you,
yet you do not feel this.
The : pressure from without - is sd
great tnat were It not for the pressure
within you would be smashed flat as
a toad run over by a steam roller, and
the pressure within you is so great
that were it not counterbalanced by
the pressure from without you would
explode to atoms like the shell of a
dynamite cartridge. V; " ;
Yet you have no means of realizing
this. You feel perfectly natural. You
breathe normally and without effort
You move about without being con
scious of exertion. Only a feeling as
of water left in the ears after bathing
remains. -'
. The noise of rumbling cars and
scraping shovels from ahead sounds
natural. So does the . voice of your
guide. Only your ' own voice seems
strange in your own. ears far deeper
in pitch than you ever have heard It
and far off, not as if it came from your
own mouth, but as4f from ten feet be
hind; also, and this strikes you queerly
until you have found the cause, all
sounds are -chopped off short for in
this, heavy atmosphere there Is little
echo and carrying power. Even the
explosion of a dynamite cartridge
makes no more noise than a shotgun
fired above in daylight
In this dense atmosphere were you
to try to whistle with your lips or to
blow a cornet or a fife you might blow
your "lungs, out without producing a
sound, for the pressure would resist
any sound waves of which your lungs
were capable. Owing to the excessive
supply of oxygen, were you to light a
match it would burn with the rapidity
of tinder, amid volumes of smoke.
For the same reason an oil lamp or
a lantern would burn itself out within
a few. minutes, emitting volumes of
soot that would completely hide the
flames. And for the same Treason a
lighted pipe . or- cigar will burn of it
self without suction, and a single
mouthful of smoke" Is "all you would be
able to get out of a clgarette.L Were you
to bring an empty corked bottle into this
pressure from the outside, the pressure
against the cork, unbalanced by pres--sure,
from within, would be so great
that you would be unable to pull the
stopper. These are a few Instances of
what you find when under forty
pounds of pressure.

river country In 1535 and reported that

Ways of th Men Who Lose Their All
. In Wall Street. ' : . .
'What becomesof the men' who lose
In Wall street They are seldom heard
of. The visitor to New; York gets the
notion that the gay crowd of men at
tSe Waldorf the "uptown street"
comprises them all.. But this ; crowd
is altogether, mlsrepresentative and has
no true" . sign Value, 'says a writer on
Wall street In the New Broadway Mag
azine. '
You can retain your equilibrium easi
ly In watching them by remembering
that Runner of New Britain Is hid
ing somewhere, a fugitive from jus
tice; that Jumper of Milwaukee is In
4-prison; that there are many other men
who went down hard with big crash-
l es, and that for every, one of the. big
men there are 10,000 little men whose
losses are smaller, but not a whit less
fatal.:.-'. .- ; .rv - -, --.."- ' "

in- New York. If " you . knew In what
window to iook. figuring anxiously and
endlessly, looking over!-Insurance pa
pers to se if further, loans are ad
inlsslble. : . - - '
Their wives are-sewing; their daugh
ters are studying stenography. You
will find others hanging about hotel
lobbies, and the moment you - catch
their eye or grip their hands you know
that they v are nervous, distraught
broke, restless typical Wall street vic
tims. . ' . . " " - '
The others, - prof esslonalsT parasites,
satellites, winners, you will find In the
cafes and hotel ; restaurants, making
up a large part of the crowds at Sher
ry's and Delmonico's, Martin's and
Rector's, the Waldorf. Manhattan. As
tor, St. Regis . and Holland House.
Wall street by day demands the Great
White Way at night- From the mo
ment the market opens till its close the
game Is. a fast and furious one of
sharp trickery, clever dodging, raillery,
bluffing, hypocrisy, lying.
Nerves are constantly tense; the
brain must be clear and quick at ev
ery move! Successful . lying uses up
gray matter, and the flash and festivi
ty of the Tenderloin at night are Just
unnatural enough to fit in and offer
the kind of recreation desired." -r

SAW HIS OPPORTUNITY.
The Reporter Seized - It and Got His
; - Real Start In Life.
All the city traveling public loves a
strap hanger because lt has a- fellow
feeling for him. This is why the story
of how Frank Vanderlip, the banker,
got his start has an almost universal
appeal. It happened when Vanderlip
was, a reporter on a Chicago newspa
per and . writing financial news. The
traction situation then, as now, was al
most Impossible. Charles T. .Yerkes
was traction dictator, and the stock
holders and the public never had : a
word to say in the conduct of the
rroad& Nor could they get any . definite
idea of the financial condition of the
properties.
The time for,. the annual meeting of
the stockholders of the principal road
came along. At all the meetings Mr.
Yerkes had rattled off the reports In
the usual undecipherable corporation
way, and no one knew what was do
ing. So Vanderlip planned a coup.
He bought a share of stock, which
admitted him to' the meeting. He had
been a stenographer before he became
a newspaper man. When Mr. Yerkes
sailed Into his breezy explanation of
finances the young reporter took down
everything he said. Mr. Yerkes used
one striking phrase, -and it was this:
"The passengers who have seats pay
the operating 'expenses, : but the strap
hangers pay your dividends," .
The next day the sentence topped
Vanderlip's account of the meeting.
It aroused a storm of discussion, for it
laid bare some of the traction methods;
also" it got Vanderlip a raise in salary
and a promotion. Saturday Evening

' In some cases they last longer. They never need repairs. They're
fireproof, storm-proof. They reduce the cost of insurance, and they're
easy to lay. They preserve the building, too, by keeping out dampness;
so if you want a thoroughly cosy home in winter, and , a cool house in
summer, you can't do better than see that Cortright Shingles are used for
