About CorkscreHs.
The corkscrew IS contrivance

from bottles. When cork protrudes
From the neckof the bottle far enough
L to admit Of grasping it with the hand or
clinching it with the teeth, q corkscreW
IS unnecessary. But when q cork -
flush with the bottles mouth, or,
through unskillful manipulation, has
become lodged down in the neck. .
corkscrew IS not only conyenience-
be emptied Of its liquid contents by
crowding the cork down through the
neck with penholder or any other
suitable article that may be at hand.
but this method of opening bottle is
generally regarded as inelegant.
There are several kinds of corkscrews.
That which has been the longest in use
is the simplest. For several hundred
years it was the bess. until q genius
added an improvement which brought
tito perfection. The primeyal corkscTew
consisted of q wire, pointed at one end,
twisted into spiral with about five turns
tempe ed SO as TO give rigidity to it. and
provided with wooden handle like
that of q gimlet The spiral part of
the wire was about two inches long
after being twisted, the part left
straight was Of about the same length,
and the wooden cross piece was
round, and about three inches in length
and half an ainch in diameter. The
handle was made fast to the metal by
putting the wire through hole in the
wood and clinching it. The metal was
not FURNISHED, nor was the wood pol
ished or painted It is safe I'd say chat
there never was corkscrew tjoo which
could not have been acs omplisncd
with one of these primeval corkscrews.
The name of the inventor Of the
corkscrew has not been handed down
to these generations. He lived before
the days of leste patent. 1t is held
by a certain school of theorists that he
was no other than Archimedes. The
similarity of the corkscrew to the spiral
Of Archimedes is "a theta. The cork
screw can not have constant equation,
for the pit b varies not only in different
screws, but in the different spirals of
the same screw A corkscrew FASH
ioned after the equation OF the spiral
of Archimedes, with important modifi-
cations, would be serviceable; but there
