and In the two hands nearest to each other
they grasp brace which represents the lat
ticed girder. Attaching a weight of stones
to the outer hand of each of course tends to
pull them over outwardly-that is, away
from each other-but as they grasp the CEN
tral brace the weight of the stones thus holds
it up and supports heavy man sitting on it.
The cantlever bridge is of English origin, but
has been adopted by American engineers.
The importance of this bridge will be appar
ent by glance at the map; the Firth of Forth
extends so far westward into Scotland the
deep channel of the river going farther, that
this bridge greatly ahortens all the lines Of
eastern Scotland. At present the fastest
trains between Edinburgh and Perth require
about two hours and quarter, by Stirling
or Burntisland. When the bridge is com
pleted the run can be made in one hour.
Nearly half of Scotland will be SO much
nearer in time to London.
1t is a curious fact that Sir Thomas Bouch
after long study, had decided to adopt the
American system of suspension bridge, and
had provided for two towers 600 feet high for
the Forth bridge, just about the time Ameri-
can engineers began to favor the cantilever
system, and that the Tay disaster lin Decem-
Der, 1879 should have settled the matter so
completely. A novel and interesting feature
of the new bridge is in the bases of the minor
towers-these consisting of four cylindrical
masses of concrete and masonry, SO placed as
to have the strength of a solid mass as wide
as their combined width. Taken a whole,
the Forth bridge must rank as one of the
great wonders of the world.

THE SHAM MUST GO.

An advertisement in one of the morn
ing papers for "A "tucker Oh pillow shams"
few days ago led to inquiries that indi-
cate that, the advertisement notwith-
standing. the pillow sham must go; in
deed, it has already gone to great ex-
tent among people knowing what's what.
1t is the proper thing now to have the
regular linen of the bed so fine and
beautiful that it does not have to be COW
cred by any sham during the daytime.
Even a lace spread over the bed is no
more used by people who can afford re-
gular spreads fine enough to be shown,
or eider-down quilts for the tops of their
beds. The shams always were hdeous
thing to folks of taste. in spite of the great
labor and expense often used in making
them beautiful. Besides being an open
and avowed deception, they were always
getting sOiled or mussed up Just when
they vert wanted to look incest, and
when bedtime came they were objects
of terror. especially to men, on account
of the impossibility of finding any place
where they could be put safely over night.
one genius thought to solve this diff
Guilty by inventing machine which was
hitched to the headboard of the bed and
to which the shams were fastened. 1t
was arranged to fly up at night carrying
the shams with it and keeping them sus-
pended out of the way until morning. If
anything this device was the death blow
to the sham. Folks could stand the
shams alone, deceptive and inconvenient
as they were, but when it came.to working
them by machinery the line of good taste
as well rs of personal comfort was drawn
sharply. In families where the bed linen
is changed only once a week shams will
continue to be used for obvious reasons,
but where sheets and pillow cases are re-
moved daily or at any rate as soon as they
perceptibly show wear the sham spreads
no more its glaring belaced and EN-
broidercd lie before the eye of chance
spectators.
fuckers are wanted on pillow shams
still because it will be a good while be-
fore the greater part of the country under
stands that shams are really out of fash
ion and for many year yet they VIII
continue to decorate with their icy gran
deur the spare rooms of the rural and
semi-rural districts. The demand from
this source will keep up the trade in pill
low shams for good while yet and the
wholesale dealers in such goods are not
hesitating to make up stocks almost as
large as usual New York Sun.

THE BIG FORTH BRIDGE.
IT IS ONE OF THE WONDERS OF
THE MODERN WORLD.

Nothing Like 1t Has Ever Been Built
Its Form Is Due to the Awful Disaster
Which Swept Away the Tay Bridge and
Engulfed "A Train Load of Passengers.
Scotland is about to astonish the world with
a cantilever bridge over the Firth of Forth
at Queensferry, which from its size and com
pexity, as well as the principles applied,
attracts the attention of engineers in every
country. All readers will readily recall
the awful disaster of ten years ago at
Tay bridge, by which an entire train load
of excursionists were hurled to death,
the viaduct having been wrecked by a sudden
storm. With such energy did company and
engineers work that i'll less than eight years
another bridge, then claimed to be the most
complete in the world, spaned the Tay.

Average price, ll3 mn.

After carefully studying the above pri-
ces and average would like to ask the
breeders if they know of any link, label
or registration that will connect these
prices or the demand for the two classes
of sheep.
Now, breeders, the above shows you
in plain figures the comparative value
and demand for our sheep as they are
now bred for South American markets.
You have been laboring under a delusion.
You have been told of the coming de-
mand, the prizes on your wool (diplO-
mas), certificates and last gold and sill
yer medal three inches in diameter. |
will admit that it is large enough for the
sheep to stand on, but fear if you I'M
dertake to get on, too, you or the sheep
will haye to get. | haye undertaken it
number of times, but always found the
base too small. The public at large do
not purchase medal, but demand a
sheep that is able to draw one.
1t is all well enough for a man that is
drawing salary from $500 to $500 per
annum to cast all his hopes on diplomas
and a three inch medal, but you and |
that have got to take the result of the
market as we find it now (and as it has
been for the last six years. better call
halt and ask ourselves, are we producing
an article the trade demands, or are we
forcing upon the market sheep they ac-
cept from bare necessity and not from
choice. You assemble yourselves once
