great amount of friction. 1t is in the
construction Of the apparatus that the
greatest amount of ingenuity has been

about an American inventor who is
said to have patented a corset that is
to bring about the reign of morality at
once. Ifone of these articles is pressed
by lovers arm it at once emits a
shrek like the whistle of railroad
