apparatus, as he pleases. 1t is, in tact,
case of ."pay-your-mo -and-tske- your
choice combination. A country editor ha!
had experience of one of these swings, and
saws it reminded him of the gentle ane
easy motions of the cradled deep, without
any fear OF shipwreck or sea-sickness."
Victims of the soapy sisterhood may
henceforth enjoy she luxury of doing then
own washing. Every man may become hi
own woodsawyer. Delicate or overworket
mothers can rock the cradle, sew, and churI
the butter in manner highly conducive Il
health and comfort. A further improvement
may be suggested: hand-orsan or otae
musical instrument might be connected witt
the swing, and the household labors per
formed with the double accompaniment Q
restful motion and refreshing harmony. 9

ANOTHER RAILWAY IMPROVE
MINT

If necessity is the mother of invention
then Americans must be the most necessi-
tous people in the world for they are con
.tinually inventing something TO add to theil
wealth. comfort, or convenience. OF the lat
ter class is plan recently adopted by the
Buffalo and Erie Railway to indicate to the
passengers the various successive stations on
The road. The old practice of calling out
the names through the cars has been found
unsatisfactory and uncertain. The noise Of
the train, the imperfect pronunciation OF the
|Brakesmen or conductors, and the momen
tary iuattention of the traveller have csus-
ed frequent mistakes and oYersights, which
their novel and simple arrangement com
pletsly obviates. The invention is thus
described in Buffalo paper: o. if
The names of the stations are Onlswhite
cloth, which is moved by rollers, and each
turn of the rollers brings the name OF the
next station to view, after the manner Of
some counting room calendars we have seen
at the same time striking bell which calls
the attention of the passengers to the change
1t is operated by the hand Of the conductor
or brakeman. The general heading undel
which the name of the station appears is:
d,fv TINS TRAIN NEXT SToFs At 4 .
30 II this is found to work as we'll as j
seems to promise, II should be adopted by
our railways throghout the country.

/. = THE RARRER,S POLE,

There is reason in everything, even th'
to oistifcation of barber's pole. Some o
our readers may feel curious to know il
origin, Many years ago the barer united
variety of pursuits in one--shaving, leech
ing, cupping and bleeding; the last Of which
was the most prominent and profitable o
all. The BARRIERS sign was. therefore, I
wooden arm. wound about with iron band
ages, to represent the preparation for bloOe
letting. When medicine and surgery came
to the dignity Of separate profession, th'
barber lost the greater part Of his patronage
in the line, and was at last driven TO con
fine his genius to his razor and shears. Sue
ceeding generations of BARRIERS banished tht
wooden arni, because it had lost its slguih
canoe, but retained the red bandagess o.
stripes, for the sake of ornament and asso'
citation, hence our present barber 5 pole.
