The American Exhibit at Paris.

Criticisms of the scope and char
acter of the American exhibit at the
Paris Exposition have been numer-
Gus. The general tendency of the
testimony hitherto submitted has
been to the effect that the exhibit
fell far short of being one truly re-
preventative of this country's re-
sources. Endorsement and praise of
the affair has been scarce enough to
render it noteworthy. The latest
contribution IN the latter direction
is furnished by Professor G. V.
Riley, who has had charge of the
agricultural exhibit since the open
ing of the exposition. Professor
Riley, according to press dispatches,
evidently considers some of the criti-
cisms of the affair to have been I'M
just, and says that taken as a whole
the exhibit reflects credit on this
country. The lack of sufficient
appreciation is remarked upon by
Professor Riley, who says: almost
every one at the exposition agrees
that, after France, Belgium took the
lead in the quality and quantity of
her general display. Then, perhaps,
England, America coming fourth in
the list of excellence [ believe that
the award will confirm this estimate.
This standing is very crediAble, in
deed, when it is considered that Bel
GUM, Spain, Italy, Portugal and
other countries voted money to
defray the expenses of exhibiting
their goods far in excess of that pro-
vided for in Congress, which appro-
priated but $25O,OOO for the work"

The English Language in Japan.

,, In the public schools of Japan the
English language is required to be
taught by law. One needs no pro-
phet's vision to foresee that the
English language will be the ruling
language of the Island Empire in
nifty years. The brightest and most
ambitious of the young men in the
open ports and commercial cities of
emma are all eager to learn English
as passport to wealth, position and
employment. The native preacher
must needs learn English, or thew

The free delivery of postal matter
is to be extended to towns in the
United States having 5000 popula-
ton. The system, says the Sacra
mento Union INSTEAD of entailing
great cost upon the Government,
has in fact enabled it to show in re-
cent years smaller margin of deficit
than in the years prior to its adop-
ton. Not that the result is to be
wholly attributed to free delivery,
but it has been an important factor
in bringing it about, because it has
encouraged the use of the mails, and
in that proportion has lessened the
cost of handling and transporting
them" The time seems to have
come when free delivery and col
lection of letters should be estab-

A Word About the Bolt Die Stock.

No turning back over the threads after
it is once cut, is prominent feature of the
Duplex"
All mechanics agreeing that the turning
back against the cutting edge Injuries the
dies much more than the actual cutting.
When the " Duplex" dies become dull
by CUTTING, they can readily be renewed by
sharpening on a grindstone. Thus max
ing the life of these dies longer, at least by
four fold than any other made, and at the
same time avoiding the common occur
renee of stripping or weakening the thread
and rendering the work worthless.
This tool, when set to any desired size,
can instantly be released and lifted off and
reset to same size without trial, thus in
surfing rll the threads uniformly alike. 1t
adjusts to all the variations in irOn-rough,
diversified iron is shaved to standard size
and threaded at the same time. This can
not be accomplished with any other Die
Stock. The Duplex being the only tool
made allowing one set of dies to accurately
cut two distinct sizes-in the adjustment
no wrench, screw driver or any extra tool
being used-and when adjusted is as rigid
as a solid die, and will do at least one-third
more work in the same space of time. We
solicit a comparison with other makes,
both as to range of sizes each tool cuts,
and prices, as we'll as price of extra dies.
