New Domestic Metor,

There has been within the past few
years demand for small motors both
for the shop and the house. A large
number of domestic motors have been
brought out, but the greater part have
apparently failed Of general approval
Steam, air and gas engines of small size
and low price are readily found, but, for
domestic use, the fact that all require
more or less skill in using them seems to
prevent their general introduction. There
is also at least one good water motor
suitable for light work in the house.
This is n simple overshot wheel, driven
by a small stream Of water from any
house service where there is a moderate
pressure or head of water. The wheel
is hung vertically. and is enclosed in
casing supported by iron legs A new
form of water motor recently introduced
suspends the wheel in the form of thin
metallic disk, at the end of vertical
shaft. From two TO four streams may
be directed against the cup shaped vanes
on the wheel, and, as the wheel is sus
pended freely, the waste water has plen-
ty of room to escape below. The wheel
is inclosed in a casing having dishing
shape below, with the outlet for the
water in the middle, to prevent cogging
or stopping of the wheel by excess of
waste water. The motor is designed to
be screwed directly to the faucet, and to
dishlrge the waste water into the sink,
or by pipe into the house drain. The
motor is made in several sizes, from a
small machine of one sixteenth horse
power, which can be carried easily in
the hand, up TO one horse power ma
chimes.
1t may be remarked, in connection
with this motor, that there is also new
steam motor connected on the same plan.
a small jet of steam is thrown against
the vanes of wheel nclosed in me
tallic casing. While this motor is the
oretically wasteful of the steam,it has the
advantage of great simplicity and entire
safety No special care is needed to run
it, aud these things may outweigh the
waste of power that must follow from
the use of steam in this manner.-7He

II Will "0ut."

In the reign of Louis XIV. a certain
brilliant able was one of large party
who had assembled round the royal sup
per table. There were clever takers,
sharp dealers in epigram, ,skillful handlers
OF compliments and repartee. One lady,
famous for her wit, being asked to name
the three sights that gave her the great
est pleasure, replied "a great general
ona war horse, great preacher on a
platform,and great thief on a gallows,
The abbe added to the mirth of the eve
ming by telling of the adventures of a
gay and memorable career. II remem-
Der, he said, ''very well, the first penl-
tent who ever came to my confessional,
| was young then, and little accustomed
to hear the secrets of court life. 1t was
a murderer who told me the secret of his
crime" The able was pressed to tell
the tale, or to give clue TO the culpriti
but he kept guarded and wary silence,
Presently in came one of the most trusty
of the kings fayortes "Ah! NJ rAbbe,
he said-rccognizing an old friend; "gen
tlemen, | was the first penitent whom
the abbe shrived, and / promise you
when | told him my story, he heard
what astonished him" That night tn,
nobleman was carried to the Bastile, and
the evidence of a crime committed thirty
years before was complete, and the cul
prit detected,
