They are then chopped into strips of
width corresponding to the length of the
nail or tack required. Supposing the
tack to be cut is an eight-cunce carpet
tack, the strip of iron, as chopped and
ready for the machine, would be about
eleven-sixteenths of an inch wide and
thirty inches long. This piece is placed
firmly in the feeding apparatus, and by
this arrangement carried between the
knives of the machine.
AT each revolution OF the balance
wheel the knives cut of small piece
from the n Of this plate. The piece
cut off is ointed at one end, and square

action Of the knives, and these dies, COM
ing together, from the body of the tack
under the head. Enough of the iron
projects beyond the face of the dies to
form the head, and while held firmly by
them, a lever strikes this projecting
piece into a round head. This, as we
have said before, is all done during one
revolution of the wheel, and the knives,
as soon as the tack drops from the ma
chine, are ready to cut off another piece.
The machines are run at the rate of
about 250 revolutions per minute. The
shoe nail machines, for cutting headless
shoe-nails, are run at about 500 revolu-
tlons per minute, and cut from three to
tive nails at each revolution.

which equal Icapital is Invested. The
moral virtues and graces of ftrue, un-
selfish and devoted wife may be substl-
tuted for the ornamental qualities which
come from breeding, but in any case the
wife should have been brought up on
the same social plane with her husband.
Otherwise her charm will irrltate. The
partners must have thoughts in common;
they must speak the same language; their
surrounding must have been similar IN
youth or they wiilatiect them differently
in married life. To wed clown to acourt
beauty is almost like mixing races, upon
which nature has laid the curse of steri-
lity in the second generation, and given
an inheritance OF the vices OF both par
ents, with the virtues of neither. Where
there is disparity it is at its worst when
the husband cannot control. He is cer-
tain to be despised unless he can rule,
and where the natural ability as we'll
as the educational development lis on
the side of the wife nothing but misery
can ensue Passion, even that form OF it
which sentimentalists can love, is a poor
guide. 1t is responsible for all the mes
alliance like that OF the Shepards and for
many more which lead to the divorce
court. 1t is grave question whether
young people in love ought to be permit
ted to bind themselves for life. Each
idealize the other, and the best and
noblest nature is most revolving charac
ter with its own qualities, and meets,
of course, in time, with the cruelest dis
appointment Marriage is a great disll-
lusionist, which nothing but mutual re-
spect on the. part of equals can defy.

The Old Times and the New.

l well remember in the year of 1924
my mother, brother, and myself were
crossing the Green Mountains in the
stage coach. About noon we stopped at
the Stage house for dinner, and to
change horses. The dinner was on the
the table when the coach stopped, and
as soon as we had arrived we went in,
in company with other passengers, into
the capacious kitchen where the table
was laid. There was q large brown
earthen pan In the center of the table
filled with beans; on pewter plate by
the side of the pan, was chunk Of
baked pork; on another plate OF pewter
was pile of brown bread; big brown
pudding dish contained baked Indian
pudding; there was pitcher ofcider on
the table and two pewter mugs, a clam
shell, or something like it, with some
salt; and q tin pepper box, handless
mug with some vinegar, The plates
were of wood and not very round, or
white either. There was wooden pad
die to dip the beans and pudding out
with; and big kitchen knife to cut up
the pork; we children had some little
pewter spoons to eat with, and suppose
there were knives and forks for older
ones, but do not remember. As we ate
breakfast before daylight, we were 3

A Par of Shoes in Twenty Min
uteS.

ulSSs
From the Boston Globe.
Eight hours consumed in making a
pair Of boots or shoes when working
for record would be considered ter
ribly slow time in Lynn. Twenty min.
utes is the best time on record. In
1880 Charles Stewart Parnell visited
Lynn, and while there he was shown
about the city by Mayor sanderson and
three or four other gentleman. Tho
party visited the shoe mandatory of
G. S. Sweetser, & Co.. and the proprie-
tors decided to show Mr.. Parnell how
quick pair of boots might be made. It
was decided to make a pair of wom-
ems grain polish and the work COM
menced, Mr.. Parnell closely watching
every movement. He saw the stock for
the eyeleting done and the passing of
the uppers from one stitcher to anoth-
er; he saw the sole leather died out
for the bottoms, and the stock fitted.
Up to this time the uppers and bot
toms had been kept separate. The
next he saw was the two parts come to-
gether. the uppers lasted to the bottoms.
then the uppers were sewed to the
soles by q Mckay stitcher, and in rap
id succession followed the work of beat
ing out, trimming and setting the edges,
mailing on the heels. shaving and fin
ishing the same, buffing the bottoms and
channeling Mr.. Parnell then took the
boots, which had been manufactured in
just twenty minutes before his own eyes,
and carried them with him to England.
These boots in process of manufacture,
passed through no less than thirty
hands, and the work was perfect.

On Sunday evening we approached
the 1S0th meridian of longitude. We
went to sleep Sunday night and awoke
Tuesday morning. We had left out
Monday in order to set ourselves right
with the time of the world. In travel
ing westward from London we were
Just twelve hours behind London time.
To set ourselves exactly right we should
have missed but twelve hours, but by
common consent all vessels crossing the
1s0th degree Of longitude from east to
west miss twenty four hours, so that, hav-
ing crossed this meridian, we were
twelve hours ahead instead of twelve
hours behind London time: but travel
Ing on westward we would lose twelve
hours by the time we should reach Lon
don, and thus we would find ourselves
exactly right by London time. In trav-
cling round the world the other way, l..
e., from west to east, the order is re-
versed, and day is counted the second
time. Thus it will be seen we have lost
day Of our lives unless we undertake q
trip eastward, in which case we would
regain the day we have lost.

The Wounding of General Stone
wall Jackson.


From the Baltimore Sun.
Last Wednesday, May 2, was the Goth
anniversary of the date on which Gem
eral Stonewal Jackson, at Chancellors-
vile, received from his own men, by ac-
cident, the wound which eight days later
resulted in his death. The comparative
obscurity in which he spent all but the
last three years of his life finds paral-
lei in the mystery or uncertainty, which
in the popular mind, surrounds the cir
cumsiances under which he was shot.
The question has been raised whether
lie was wounded by bis own men or by
the enemy, and, it being gener ally con-
ceded that he was fired at by mistake by
his own men, it has been matter OF
hot discussion as to the regiment that
made the fatal blunder. The facts were
we'll substantiated by officers
present at the time, are as follows:
formed by Rhodes division, extending
across the pike at Charlottesville,
but the division command,
ed by General Colston, forming
the second line, had, as the action pro-
gressed, become mingled with it. After
nightfall, in lull of the firing, it was
undertaken to relieve the two divisions
by A. P. Hills division Of fresh troops.
Jackson was impatient to have the at
tack recommended, and, supposing that
there was skirmish line out in front
between Rodes' men and the enemy,
rode forward along the pike in advance
of Hill to ascertain the enemy's position
and in doing SO passed through the line
of battle beginning to be formed by
Lanes brigade of Hills division. Those
of Lanes men Immediately on the road
knew that General Jackson had passed,
but those further to the right and left
did not. Hence some of Lanes troops
on the right of the road, seeing General
Jackson, accompanied by several signal
men and couriers, in their front, mistook
them for the enemy and opened fire on
the party, wounding not few of its
members. Those of their number still
unhurt, including General jackson, to
escape this tire, plunged into the woods
on the left, where they were met with a
SECOND volley, from the troops on that
side ofthe road. General Lane reports
it as the opinion generally ac-
Eighteenth regiment of his brigade
of North Carolina that did the firing.
mistaking General jackson and his es.
cort for a party of the Federal cavalry.
The result of the second volley was that
the General was wounded in three
places, two balls'penetrating his left arm,
shattering it and cutting the chief artery
and third passing through the palm of
his right hand. After some DELAY Cen
eral Jackson was borne to the rear.
His arm was amputated, and hopes of
his recovery were entertained. But
pneumonia soon set in which was the
immediate cause of his death on the 10th
of May, 1868.

Last Sunday man and his wife nam

Kansas, while laboring under tension
stripped themselves, and not being

morning some of them coaxed up cour-
age enough to, 60 to them ana per-
suade them to clothe themselves. Their
children were in the house, but were
unable to do anything with their par
ents. The couple are now quiet, but
still out Of their minds. The woman.
who is very we'll educated, was bitten
ny rattlesnake a few days before the
above occurrence, but trusting solely in
prayer, refused to allow anything to be
done to cure the bite.

All Day in a Mexican Town.

No one seems in hurry in these
places. And why should they be? The
necessa-ies of life are few and very
cheap, and the extra dollar needed for
the Sunday cock-fght or tho weekly
game of "monte," of the men, and the
fan or comb or silver shawl-pin of the
woman are easily earned, and so the good
man is not obliged to walk fast on off
days when he is in town and goes around
10 the "matanza," or butchers shop, to
buy piece of meat for dinner, and
there is not the least reason why he
should not stop for twenty minutes on
the sidewalk and talk to Juan or Jose,
whom he has encountered on the way,
or spend half an hour in at the
"tendajo" hanging over the counter and
discussing a glass of mescal and the
crops with Tomas or Telesforo. The
good wife, too, rises early, and the day
is still young by the time she has
fetched water from the river and swept
the earthen floor of the one living
room and the "patio" outside and given
the good man his breakfast and dis
patched him to the fields, and she has
ample time to don her black head-shawl
and trot off to morning service, and by
no means hurries herself as she walks
home again and drops Donnas Juana
and Maria and dVictoriana at their respec-
tive doors, stopping awhile to exchange
few parting remarks with each; ample
time has she, too, to prepare the inevita-
BILE tortillas, beans and coffee for the
midday meal.

hours the inl abitants are all indoors

"siesta'D is the Quietest and LATEST time
of all. Then, indeed, does the little
town seem like city ofthe dead. ''The
streets lie white, silent and deserted in
the fierce sunlight, nothing stirring in
them save hungry pig or two, or a dog
going somewhere on unavoidable busi-
ness, his head hanging and his tongue
out, as he hugs closely to the mud wall
which offers the faintest prospect of a lit
tie shade. Even the voice of the ire
pressible cock gets faint and weary at
these hours, and the monrnful cooling of
the pigeons becomes low and intermit-
tent"
Between 8 and 4 o'clock the town
begins to wake up slowly. At 4, or
thereabouts, comes amerienda," a sort Of
afternoon tea, consisting of coffee and
cakes. Ats the women dress and go
out visiting. At Z the bells sound for
"oracion," or evening service; at comes
supper, and by all is as still as the
grave, except on Sunday nights, when
the band plays in the little "piaza," on a
moonlight night, when the rich notes OF
