There has quite recently been brought TO the notice
OF the public by the inventor j. X. Glenn reversible
portable railway the track OF which is affxed to the
body OF the carriage, the wheels to which are
fastened to chairs and made movable on the
rails, but In such way that they cannot break
or fall on. To these chairs again fastened
feet, and these feet, the wheels pass around the
double angular rails (of steeD, rest the ground

top and bottom OF the carriage parallel to each

ces, the OF which, however, are sufficiently
rotund TO permit the trucks with their chairs and

upon which the chain pump Is worked. As the
vehicle passes over the ground the feet hold up and
