allied to his fancy is his sparkling wit in this he

uses no broadsword, but sparkling rapier,

IMPROVED WAGON BRAKE Perry Dickson. Of
Blooming valley, Pa, has taken measures to Sc
cure pa. .ont for very simple and excellent
bake for wagons and carriages. It simply con
sists in connecting double cranks TO the inner
end of the pole or shat, of carriage or wagon,
and connecting the c~anks to a f.ic ion brake for
the face Of each wheel, in such manner that the
least backing up of the draf animals brings the
brakes mp against the face of each wheel, and so
presses them that they cease to revolve, and
merely slide. 1t is useful Improvement for hilly
