one OF the most ancient methods, and
with the old oaken bucket has come
down the ages.
In this machine a long beam. weight
ed at one end, is pivoted in a forked
post and arranged To oscillate on its
pivot. To the lighter end OF the beam
Is connected a rod which Is attached at
its lower end TO a bucket, and the
weight of the heavier end of the beam
Is more than sufficient TO lift a bucket
OF water. Upon the beam is placed a
plank. and at the sides Of the plank
are arranged haud-rails. The operator
walks forward and backward upon the
beam, thus alternately adding his
weight TO the lighter end of the beam
and removing IL therefrom, causing the
bucket alternately TO dip into the water

The execution of the chosen patterns is

an individual period in the life of the

young lady's predicament. She, how
