'Then you know that her temper is
so uncertain that it is necessary to fig
ure closely to keep her even decently

Nothing of the sort; she has only a
little more vivacity than most of our
lackadaisical modern girls
THAT is the advantage that belongs
to her as an antique girl
''Now, really. Kate. that is too bad. !"

AUTOMATIC LAMP.lIG HTEEs

N
= l-->AI Street L;snps.
For me tiihe<s4sftsins on Sta
street have remarked peculiar attac IA.
ment to the lamp post at the CORNER
of State and Devonshire streets, a1hl
many have been the surmises as TO tia
contents of the little iron box and itE;;
uses. Superintendent Allen, of the lamp
department, said it was an arrangement
for lighting the gas at certain hour each
night and turning it out at certain hour
in the morning. In fact, it is newly in
vented machine designed to do the work
of the lamplighter, with the single ex-
ception of cleaning the lamp. 1t has 4
clOck-work arrangement, which is SO
regulated that it conforms to the moons
changes and lights the gas and puts it
out early or late, according to the full.
of rising or setting.
The machine is about the shape of q
pear, and contains clock of the eight
day pattern, which in turn is ATTACHED
to a Illuminated cylinder in which are
four hundred small pit holes filled with
a waterproof illuminate compound or
enough to last a whole year. In place
of the alarm on the clock, is spring
which is attached to a cylinder, and
when the hands of the clock point to thes
designated hour, the cylinder is turled
by rachel having the same numbe. of
teeth as there are pits on the circular OF
the cylinder, spring is loosenedk the
gas turned on, and small hammer
strikes one of the pit holes, and the re-
suit is that the gas is lighted at uni
form hour all over the city, or wherever
the appliance is attached.
BY simple mechanism after thegas
is lighted, the reverse is the order, and
at the same time at which the clock is |
set in the morning. A man is onlTre-
quired to visit each street lamp by the
new arrangement once week to clean
the lamp, and at the same time to vino
the clock; or, if he should happen TO
miss day, the work will be performed
just the same by this automatic lamp
lighter, as the clock runs nine days
