German Stoves.

They are exceedingly economical in
the matter of heat in Vienna. They
have cold and raw weather enough but
they are not educated to the heat neces-
sary, or considered so, in American
domiciles. The German stove is an
elaborate affair Of iron or porcelain. with
an ash receptacle at the base. fire box.
and then flues that convey heat upward
af5ot or so and across to the other side,
and thence back again, till finally the
pipe is reached, the theory being that
when this heating surface is made hot il
will last all day. Into this miserably
economical affair they put very little
wood, and very little coal. and it de-
velops just enough heat to make you
sensible that the room is very cold. As
the ire-box will only hold so much fuel.

However, they are educated to this

The Original Clothes. Wringer.

In September, 184S, the forerurner O.
the clothes-wringer appeared in a wash.
ing-machine patent which claimed sim
ply 1.-THE combination of the conica
rollers with the hinged platform. for the
purpose of rubbing clothes and squeezing
the water out of them as herein de.
scribed." The patent expired in 1862.
but the Commissioner, under the law a.
then existing. in 1862 gave it sever
years extension, which carried it down
to 1859. In 1861, however, the holders
OF this patent surrendered it for a re.
issue, which restated the original clai M
and added two new ones. the more i'm.
portant being ''the combination and use
of elastic rollers which shall readily
yield to any inequalities of the clothes
passing through them and thereby pre-.
vent injury" etc. Here. as will be OBJ
served, the idea of elastic rollers came
in for the first time. In 1868, only
eighteen months later, this reissued
patent was itself surrendered in ex.
change for another, which went further
and introduced a new and broad claim,
thus: The application of india rubber
or other elastic gum impervious te
water, substantially in the manner
and for the purposes described, to the
rolls of machines for washing and
squeezing clothes. This, as will readily
be seen, is claim covering broadly and
fully the foundation of the modern
clothes-wringer, and if it could be sus-
tanned and have number of years to run
it would be worth a large fortune. But
there was not even hint of an elastic
roller in the original patent of 1913, and
that was for washer, and not a wringer
then reissue got in claim for elastic
rollers, and the reissued reissue stock
in" the substance of the wringer without
even a grimace. Congress has recently
been asked. ostensibly in the interest OF
the heirs of the original patent, to revive
and extend it. Congress has not done
so, and if it had there can be little doubt
that, in the light of Supreme Court de-
cisions ON dishonest reissues, the partie.
concerned would soon find themselves set
back to the ground covered in 1913.
1t is, OF course, aggravating to human
nature to think of what we lost in Wal
Street last month by not doing what
would have been done had foresight beer
equal to hindsight, and it is not to be
supposed that men will refrain from ex-
banding their patents to cover desirable
things which they certainly would have
claimed at the time if they had only
thought of them, provided the Pateni |
Office will only be accommodating |
enough. The case related herein is a pal |
illustration OF one of the mischiefs of en-.
invention which has now tr

Down In a Coal Mine.

By this time we stood bv the black,
grim-looking elevator, called the cage,
tie guides ready with their lamps, and
the order came to descend The Dung.
ster was taken back to the o 'ce and
placed in charge of the book keeper,
and with a friend | stepped on the
cage with much the feeling of CT mi
nal on the gallows; horrid sense OF
going to meet death in some shape.
Down we went in total blackness three
hundred feet, when we came to a halt
and stepped out into .ubterranean
world of Egyptian darkness, spotted
here and there with small punches of
light, of steaming engines. and ami
mated with the activity of grimy- faced
toiling men and boys. obstinate mules,
and the clang of work. A ter walking
for some time through galleries walled
and arched with coal, braced with
hea Y timbers and threaded with mar.
row railway tracks we made another
descent of two hundred feet down q
seam of coal at an angie OF forty five
degrees, with only amt light at the
bottom TO mark our WY. -FOUR hun
dred feet urther down was the bottom
of the mine. but as various floors
of this un 'erground workshop afford
similar views we did not make the de.
scent. Nv guide was enthusiastic in
regard to the healthfulness of mining.
He contended that there was no purer
air in the world than in that mine, and
every now and then mysterious cur
rent of air swept through those d small
chambers. which the guide said came
from the ventilator. n some of the
galleries we came into passages cut
through the solid rock. where the coal
oined the slate in solid purity without
at all ming'ing with it After sc eral
feet of 70 k the coal began again. Once
we were nearly suffocIted bv the pas
ing of an engine. the steam and gas
completely filling the gallery and en-.
veloping us so totally that we were
entirely blinded, and for breath bent
our heads low for safety.

of the mine is the stables for the mules.

"No one can have . greater repup.

which cannot be requited. But it is
hard. Maurice, it is hard to think OF

Maurice would have been glad il he
had been able to follow his fathers wise
counsel and take rest; but after al the
excitement of the night there was q
painful wakefulness upon him: every
thought and object appeared to him IN
usually clear; and 10 his own thinking
all his act. rs were performed with IN
natural calmness. He saw what he Had
to do. and he was going to do it at once,
quietly and deliberately. He felt n pain
at the thought that she was lost to him
forever; that was to come q terward;
hut he smarted when he thought OF her
contempt. and how thoroughly he mer-
tied it.
He sat down and wrote. without med.

do was so clear to him.

time L dare say l shall manage i,
somehow. Let US take another turn.
and then we shall get back to your af.

Maurice was deeply touched by his
fathers whole conduct, and was keenly
sensible of what he would SUI .er ii
obliged to leave the old pla1e. This
feeling drew him out OF his own sci sh
bitterness. and the hope that he might
yet be able TO make his declining yea IS
comfortable without dishonor gave him
strength. He became somewhat of a
rational being again.

THE UNDER-CUkR0STS.

making eager inquiries, is either deceiv-
ing himself or trying to deceive Others

Thus sententiousiy reflected MIR. Cal
thorpe as he munched a biscuit and
sipped a cup of tea which he had reused
a servant TO prepare for him on re en-
tering the house. He knew that
Maurice was. not afflicted with that most
vulgar and inexcusahle of mental
diseases-id'e curiosity. The more he
rejected, therefore, hishope grew. that
all wo Id end well in spite of the bad
appearance of things at present. He
did not mean to express this hope. how
ever. as it was another of his theories,
that you can always get anybody to 90
your way il you give him fair start in
his n track
.'You are aware that YOU are asking
me TO give the particulars of Cuthbert' 5
life. which know he does not desire to

for what she said, and the shame it casts

and vet have promised TO tell you the

that You know more than | do. What

You would scarcely believe that The
"quie gentleman with whom YOU are ac-
qua'nted had been the most harum-
scarum of the fellows who were nv
friends in youth. But he was so; the
W ldest OF us all in any frolic; the most
recklessiy extravagant and the lightest
o! heart. There was. however, q differ
ence in his wildness from that OF others

humored youth. In his worst fro.ics he
took care that nobody was harmed but
himself In his extravaganza he GER
tainl. did tax his mothers and his
bro hers patience; but that is the worst
I knew of him.
"Inever liked his mother. and so you
