He broke into u laundry, and while
sorting the garments into a large

worked so systematically and quietly
that the officials thought that perhaps
he was an employe of the establish

why he worked at SO late an hour. he
replied: II am getting the things

Invention Of the Slot Tower.

There was once a mechanic at Bris-
tol, England, who had a queer dream.
Watts was his name. and he was by
trade a shot maker. The making of
Che little leaden pellets was then a
dow, laborious and, consequently,
costly process. Watts had TO take
great bars of lead and pound them out
INTO sheets of thickness about equal
10 the diameter of the shot he desired
% make. Then he cut the sheets into
little cubes, which he placed in a re
volving barrel or box and rolled until
the edges wore off from the constant
friction and the little cubes became
Pheroids.
Watts had often racked his brain
frying TO devise a better scheme, but
m vain. Finally, after an evening
spent with some jolly companions at
the alehouse he went home and turned
into bed. He soon fell into a deep
slumber, but the liquor evidently did
not agree with him for he had a bad
dream. He thought he was out again
with the boys" They were all try
ing TO find their way home when il
began 10 rain shot. Beautiful glob-
ules of lead, polished and shining fell
m a torrent and compelled him and
his bibulous companions to draw their
heavy limbs TO a place of shelter.
In the morning, when Watts arose,
he remembered the dream. He thought
about it all day, and wondered what
shape molten lead would take in fall
ing a distance through the air. At
last, when he could rest no longer, he
carried a ladleful of the hot metal up
into the steeple of the church Of St
Mary, of Radcliffe, and dropped it
into the moat below. Descending, he
took from the bottom of the shallow
pool several handfuls Of perfect shot,
far superior to any he had ever e
Watts fortune was made, for he had
conceived the idea of the shot tower,
which has ever since been the only
means employed in the manufacture
Of the little missiles 70 much used in
war and sport.-Chicaco Nail

Exercise In Your once.

The restless discomfort which comes
from long STOPPING over a desk or
COMPRISING ones liver for hours on
the edge of a drawing board is apt to
seek relief in skylarking or idleness,
or If the conscientious clerk or
draughtsman still sticks to his work it
is with reluctant fingers and beclouded
brain. and the output" deteriorates
both in quality and quantity. In such
a case FIVE or ten minutes brisk use of
the clubs or chest weights will accom-
plish more than an hours skylarking
or any amount of loafing. II has a
wonderful good effect in quickening
the stagnant circulation, and a clear
head and strong hand take up the
work with renewed vigor II is sur
prising what a little vigorous exercise
will accomplish if Systematically
taken. A few minutes once or twice
a day, at most three times, will soon
give most satisfactory results in health

The Zinc Plate In Art

The photo-litaographers are looking
toward zlncography as a refuge and
substitute for the Bavarian lithographic
stone and the wood cut, and expert
ments are being made in America,
Germany and England. where picto-
rial periodicals. and newspapers are
published 10 get the effects of the
photographic pen. The difference be-
tween the processes Of TYPOGRAPHY and
xincography, however, is so great that
Judgment cannot be passed as yet. The
great %ponderous soapstone reproduces
colors drawn on il with a greasy
pencil. The zinc can be etched with
nitric or muriatic acid, and. with the
aid OF a powerful lens, photography
called into aid with marvellous effect.
The advantages of such a process may
be summarized under two heads
economy and convenience-and for
daily newspaper pictorial work. where
rapidity must be combined with n GER
tain amount Of artistic excellence,
there can be no doubt Of the zinc plate
s~uperseding all other methods of re
producing pictures, and the wood cut
Is gradually fading away.
In the weeklies and nonthlies,
where the mezzo tint can be success
fully printed, the wood cut may IN
dured for some time, but even now
some Of the Photographic pen and ink
line drawing Is UNNECESSARILY better
than the black and white brush work on
wood. The process Of bitinga plate
with acid is, Of course, older than
Rembrandt, but il has until the last
few years been an expensive and la
borious art. The hurry Of the age de-
manded its Improvement, and soon il
will be possible 10 reproduce great
pictures in a few hours, and transfers
may be made with great facility and
preserved for future use at the nomi-
nal expense Of the cast Of the zinc
plates and the necessary storage room.
