Roger Bacon, the far-seeing monk OF
the fourteenth century, thus forecasts
the possibilities OF q coming age !:
There shall be rowing without oars,
and sailing without sails; carriages
shall roll with unimagined speed, with
no cattle to drag them; instruments to
fly with, with which a man shall move
artificial wings; little machine which
shall raise aud lower enormous weights |;
a machine to enable a man to walk on
the bottom of the sea, and bridges over
rivers, which shall rest neither on
piles nor on columns" Now that all
these possibilities, except flying. have
become actualities, why should that
much longer be an exceptios ?---
Standard.

on board. They are fully equipped,
and can turn out anything in the print
ing line, with the possible exception of a
highly colored Autograph or gilt-edge
playing card. The City of Paris and
the City of New York of the Inman
line, the Teutonic and the Majestic of
the White Star line, and number of
craft in the North German Lloyd feet
have a large space set aside for the use
OF the printers.
On every trip of the City of Paris a
newspaper is printed at sea. It is
newsy and breezy, and smells of Old
Neptune as much as a South Sea
whaler does. 1t is a four-page sheet
of the color of old parchment, and
everything of any note that occurs
during the passage from port to port
is faithfully recorded. The passengers
and officers supply the copy" Every
thing is contributed free. There are
poems by women passengers fairy
tales of the sea, written by landsmen,
and records of this or that concert held
on board or incidents of the dinner
table.
Turning out this newspaper is not
the only thing that keeps the printing

Brussels and Tapestry.

Brussels and tapestry carpets are so
similar in appearance that they might
readily be regarded, on q casual con-
sideration, as fabrics of the same
structure But when the principles
on which the pattern is obtained in the
respective articles are examined, it is
at once evident that there is practi-
cally no actual resemblance; for while
in the brussels the design is purely a
woven effect, in the tapestry it is
merely print, says the UphoIsterer.
The weaving of brussels affords
some characteristic features for inves-
tigation. The pile warp, for instance,
instead of running off ordinary yarn
beams, is wound on bobbins or NINA
ture beams, fixed in frames or q huge
creel stationed behind the loom. Each
color requires what is technically called
a separate frame.
A tive-frame brussels is q carpet
with this number of coIors succeeding
each other In the same line of fabric.
The manner in which the various- col
ors are controlled-in other words, in
which they are concealed from or
brought into view-is an important
factor in the manufacture of this arti-
Gle. On examining q brussels carpet,
it will be observed that the individual
threads forming the pile seem either
10 be composed of several colors or to
be substituted by yarns of other
shades, according to the section of the
pattern being formed. For inst lnce,
in the same line of the design, looking
at the fabric lengthwise, apparently in
the same thread, as many as from three
to five colors. such as black, green,
drab, scarlet, and blue. form the pile
in succession. If these effects are not
due to a variegated yarn, they result
from the employment of five distinct
threads, each of which is so controlled
that 1t only appears in the pile when
assisting to develop the design.
To obtain a three-frame pattern
composed, say, of black. scarlet, and
olive, at least three separate weaves
are necessary-one for each shade.
Thus the weave used in forming the
shed in the warp for the black pile is
so arranged as to depress the scarlet
and olive, while that for giving the
scarlet pile conceals the black and
olive threads, and, lastly, that for pro-
ducing the olive pile hides the black
and scarlet ends; so that, by an appro-
pirate application of these respective
weaves to the design, the colors are
brought mp in the figure where re-
duired.
