Gould railroad and the officials of that sys-

Wlndlnlns.


The windmill is q fixture now quite
common ON many farms throughout the
country. 1t has become a necessary inn
plement for raising water where stock Is
kept, In general way il MAY be said
that there are two kinds OF Windmills,
pivotal and stationary. Pivotal mills are
those in which the entire frame OF the
wood is turned about d strong pivot.
Stationary mills are those i'm which the
top of the mill only revolves, and is SUPP
ported upon framework of masonry!
A foreign exchange gives the follow
ing Information regarding the construc-
tion of windmills. It says that the spot
selected for the establishment of wind
mill should be far separated from trees,
mountains, houses and any elevated OBJ
ject capable of offering resistance to the
wind. One may select spot by placing
q little mill at the top Of q pole, and al
lowing it to revolve an hour after the
rising and two hours after the setting OF
the sun. If the motion Is constantly
regular, it Is q sign that the wind blows
favorably in one direction. If, on the
contrary, the mill turns irregularly and
by shocks, if it turns q little to the right
or to the left, it is q proof that the wind
passes obliquely where 1t is found, and
therefore tho place Is not fit for estab-
fishing a windmill.
The winds of the north, northeast,
south and southeast are the most ad-
vantageous for a windmill, because they
blow both day and night, while the 9th
ers only blow in the night, in time Of
tempest or rain. The operation of mill
ing is the same in windmill as in o
waterfalls; but the care of windmill
should not be intrusted to any but those
who have had experience In furling and
unfurling the. sails at the proper time.
| On the approach of o shower, the sails
should be taken in and the mill allowed
to stand idle until the storm is over.
! Windmills are now constructed in
which the ordinary sails are replaced by
thin boards, which by the aid of d Pc
| culiar contrivance can be made to slip
over each other without stopping the
mill. With such mill there is no fear
of being surprised by the wind, because
in less than q minute the boards can be
! placed in mass like beam, against
which the wind has no special force.
Nevertheless, if the mechanism should
be found disarranged when the storm
comes the wheel would be shattered

Bob Burdett's Advice to Rows.

"You say you demand the noblest
type of womanhood in your wife. III
that is the sort of woman you
want, marry Nora Mulligan, your laun-
dress daughter. She wears cowhide
shoes, is guiltless of corsets, never had
a sick day in her life, takes in washing,
goes out house-cleaning, and cooks for q
family of seven children, her mother
and three section men, who board with
her. I don't think she would marry
you, because Con Regan, the track
walker, Is her style of man. Let us
just examine into your qualifications as
model husband after your own matri-
monial ideas, my boy. Can you shoul-
der barrel Of flour and carry it down
to the cellar? Can you snw aid split
ten cords of hickory wood in the fall, so
as to have ready. fuel all winter? Can
you spade up half an acre Of ground for
n kitchen garden ? DO you know what
will take the Shiny taste out of the new
cistern, and can you patch the little leak
i'll the kitchen roof? Can you bring
homo pane of glass and a wad of putty
to repair the damages in the sitting
room window? Can you hang some
cheap paper on the kitchen? Can you
fix the front gate SO it will not bag? Can
YOU do anything about the house that
Con Regan can? Ny dear boy, you. see
why Nora Mulligan will have none of
you she wants higher type of true
manhood. You expect to hire men to
do all mans work about tho house, but
you want your wife to do everything
that any woman can do. Believe me,
my dear son, nine-tenths of the girls
who play the piano and sing so charm
ingly. whom you, in your limited knowl-
ege, set down as mere butterflies of
fashion,, are better fitted for wives than
you are for husband. If you want to
marry first class cook and experienced
housekeeper do your courting il tie In
tcligence Office. But if you want o
wife, marry the girl yon love, with
dimpled hands and q face like the sun.
light, and her love will teach her all
these things, my boy, long before you
have learned one-half of your OWL
lesson. - -Burlinqt01 HoaUkeue.
