enough, and it sets many distressed families to
thinking that Miss Rye would be as good as
wheat if she would send one or two good house
servants direct to their DOORS

ing such great things. The gentlemen of this

American Iron for Rridgrs.

The increasing substitution of iron for other
material in bridges is very notable in all parts OF
the country, for reasons that are patent. Messrs.
Clarke, Reeves Il Co., of Philadelphia, in 1870,
bid for the bridges to be constructed by the In
tercolonial Railway of Canada, between Halifax
and Quebec, in competition with one Belgian,
sixteen American and nineteen English builders.
They secured the long spans of all, because the
superior tenacity of American iron drives heav-
ier English plans aside, and also because the
English builders fail to see that it is only the
iron actually strained by the load that strength
ems the structure the remainder being weight
aud Objectionable. The American bridges win
lightness by concentrating material on the lines
OF strain by greater height of truss and using
eye and pin connections instead of rivets.
