 have a club that the florists can call 

 their own, and to get together once in

COOLING A BOILER. 



Never open tlie fire doors to cool your 

 boiler. Close the ash-pit doors and open 

 the smoke box dooi's in case you got 

 too much steam, as opening the fire door 

 causes too much contraction by the cold 

 air cooling the furnace. It would be 

 better to allow steam to blow ofT from 

 the safety valve, which will not in any 

 way injure the boiler. — Popular Mechan- 

 ics.
