American Hardware.


1T IS SOLD IN ALL PARTS OF THE WORLD IN
SPITE OF ADVERSE CIRCUMSTANCES.
From the N. Y. Sun.
Perhaps the most interesting fact about the
hardware trade is that neither England France
Germany, Sweden. nor Belgium, with all their
sHliied IRON workers. is able to make small core
castings, or castings with a hollow or tube in
them. SO as TO compete with American foundry
men. 1t Is an astonishing fact also that thOus-
ands OF tons OF scrap iron are every year
simplest Of American manufactures, the sad or
laundry iron, and then exported back to
Europe and at no small profit.
Ihere Is not a corner of Europe where Ameri-
can small cast hardware is not on sale, The
tool makers and machnists of Europe such as
krupp OF Germany, Whitworth of England
and Armstrong, too, and Hotchkiss of France,
WIN thelr vast resources are unable to-day to
produce Moncky or screw-bar wrench equal
10 the American WrencheS, and consequently
they have to import these tools from this
country. In fact there are no less than 80 600
dozen o. them exported to Europe alone every
year. 1t is interesting to note that Charles
Moncky, the inventor Of this screw-bar wrench
received only $4,000 for the patent, and he is
small cottage bought from the proceeds of his
sale. "a '
In the matter of the common pocket lockwood

all others that nearly all European nations

She stood on the cool piazza
As the shades Of evening fell,
And gazed on the lovely maiden,
Entranced by her beauty's spell.
The balmy evening zephyrs
Played with each golden tress:
And her azure eyes were swimming
In q sea Of tenderness.
Her lips. lust slightly parted,
Were tinged with the coraIs flame,
And thought that her cheeks bright blushes
The hue OF the rose would shame
while gazing In admiration d.
On the rare and radiant lass
thought sweetest music only
Through those coral lips could pass.
But . sudden change came DER her,
Gone was the smile SO bland;
And she smote In sudden anger
The back Of her lily hand.
And she cried, "Ha! ha! I've got you.
You'll trouble my peace no more
