Cfiiiiiiii] ONTARIO ARCHIVES TORONTO a” writer in the Illustrated London News, the gun itself, when fired, slides along guides on top of a steel box that is called the cradle. ln- side the cradle is a piston attached to the gun that the gun in recoilinx drives into a cylinder filled with glycerin. The glycerin is forced through narrow channels into a, res- ervoir full of compressed air, which it further compresses. The friction of the glycerin as it is drives through the channels (called "ports") brings the gun to a stand- still after it has recoiled about four feet, and then the expansion of the compressed air forces the glycerin back against the piston, and so re-, turns the gun to the krirtd position. The best quick-firing gums can hre twenty-five rounds a minute. The guns fire shrapnel, and also'high ex- plosive shells. The high explosive shell is used against hostile, batten” ies. It is n steel ease filled with melinite, lyddite, or Shimose pow- der, whieh can be trusted to explode upon striking a. gun, and to disable it and fill the gunners behind it. Some of the most delicious cakes are ruined while turning them from the pan. If the pan containing the cake is set on a cloth wrung out of warm water and left for a few min- utes the cakes will turn out with- out any trouble.

The llttiek-flrer, ls I'm-d By All the Armies in the War. In the Boer War, the British guy ners who worked the f1fteeu-pound field guns were frequently shut down by Boer marksmen. Since the guns of those days recoiled, carriage and all, about four feet every time that they were tired, the gunnen had to jump outside the wheels at each discharge. Gun shields were useless. Then the French invented the quick-firing gun, now used in one form or another by all the arm- ies in the present War. It has a shield of steel to protect the gun crew, but its great superiority lies in the fact that the gun only recoils, and so the gunner-i can remain safe- ly be.hind. the shield.
