in them the iron casting to the smallest piece Is
of poor -uaty. Their makers have not the means to
do their work well. They hid away in, secret
places, where would be impossible to have ut their
command the proper mech anical appliances. 1t is
only by doing great business, and having extensive
nufact uring establishments, that good machines
can be made at moderate prices. The best designed
machines, BADLY MADE are always liable to get out

money to keep them in repair.
The qualities to be looked for in machine, are :

qualities not only work well at rapid AS well as slow
rates Of speed but last long in the finest possible
