She is left entirely naked and retires from the world until a new shell is grown. That takes six weeks. The grown male lobster has to get a new snit every six months. This suit-changing, or moulting, pursues a lobster from its earliest days. Before a lobster is two inches long It has had • 14 suits; when It is six inches In length it has had 20; when foafyears old and ten Inches long It has had 25. It must shed them or die; its body grows, but Us shell-suit is rigid and non-expandable. When it can hold no more lobster, a moult is due, and nature begins a series of wonderful operations. The flow of lime te the shell ceases, and that in the shell is absorbed by the lobster. The former then becomes thin and will split. The lobster then retires to Its hole and fasts for several days. During that time it loses flesh and the new and soft shell begins to form nnder the old one. The first "casting" movements are the rubbing of its feet together and struggling. It then distends its body and a segment of the shell breaks. The flesh in the claws^ grows soft and watery and is withdrawn through the joints. RIKOWOOD l|ow to Overcome the Separation of Merciif^r :j|The bureau of standards says the i||ethod of joining mercury columns in thermometers, provided that the thermometer has not been broken, depends Upon several factors such as the type of the thermometer, the design of the thermometer, and the range of the *cale. Mercury may be joined by cooling the bulb sufficiently so that th& "mercury may all be tapped down in the bulb. This cooling can very well be •effected by using carbon dioxide snow, lii this case care should be taken that Sier the column has been joined the per part of the mercury in the bulb ll thawed first (A mixture of salt and tee may be sufficiently cold for the thermometer mentioned.) If the thermometer has an enlargement in the top, the mercury column may be joined ty raising the temperature until all of the bubbles have been driven to the ^©P. However, the enlargement should aot be filled more than half full. If these two methods are not effective •ome manipulation is necessary. This depends upon the type of thenmipeter and requires some skill. ^ ^ ^ ?vp.
