MR. BOWSER isn't the least bit
particular about his shirt and collar
and such things-no husband ever is.
Every morning as regularly as clock
work when half-past seven O'clock
comes Mrs. Bowser, who has been up
for half an hour, looks in to find him
on the broad of his back with his hands
locked under his neck and the bed
clothes wrapped around him like some
giant mummy.
'Mr. Bowser!"
No answer. -
"Mr. Bowser"
''Um"
"Mr. Bowser, do you know what
time it is?"
"U-m--m-ml"
"Come, breakfast will be ready be-
fore you are, You wanted to get away
little earlier this morning."
''Whaz mazher?"
Conceivable right up!"
''Lemme 'loneP'
'Mr. Bowser!"
He opeus his eyes, turns over with a
grunt and growl, and ten minutes
after sha has gone downstairs he care
fully sits up in bed. He is all there.
Then he kicks the clothes down with
his right leg-then with his left
knocks his pillow off on the floor, and
''sorter" falls out after it with growl
like some old sore backed bear trying
70 crawl through rail fence. Ten
minutes later Mrs. Bowser feels the
house shake and hears voice calling:
Mrs. Bowser, are you alive or
doad?"
'What is it, dear?"
Don't 'what-is-it-dear' me!
SIS this a dime museum, cider mill,
or the home of Woodworking, respect
able man?"
''What is it?" she asks as she arrives
on the scene of the fatal disaster.
"Look-a-there, Mrs. Bowser-looly
--ac-there!" he hoarsely whispers as
he holds out pair of suspenders in his
hand.
"Yes-I see You broke 'em about
a month ago and mended 'em with a
piece of string. They've busted again.
Go ahead and get on your collar and I'll
fix 'em. There they are, and you'd
better buy new pair to-day"
"Some mighty queer things around
this house," he mutters, as he buttons
them on. "Them suspenders was all
right when l went to bed last night.

AN ENGINE ON GOLD PIECE.

Smallest Force Generator on Record-A
Three-Drop Boiler.
The smallest engine we have any rec
erd OF is that made by D. A. Buck, OF
Waterbury, Conn. The engine, boiler,
governor and pumps all stand on a
space 7-16 of an inch square and are
about { of an inch high. The engine
has l4S distinct parts, held together by
fifty-two screws. Three drops of water
fills the boiler to overfowing. The
diameter of the cylinder is 1-26 of an
inch, the length of stroke 1882 of an
inch. The whole engine weighs but 3
grains, not including base-plate.
Levi Taylor, an ingenious mechanic OF
Indianola, Ia, has constructed an engine
almost equal to the Waterbury wonder.
This pygmy was on exhibition at the
Centennial at Philadelphia in 1876. 1t
is built on a 25-cent gold piece, the
whole outfit weighing but fraction
over three grains.
1t must have been quite contrast to
the enormous Corliss engine when on
exhibition in the same building. Tay-
lor's engine, while not as small as that
made by the Waterbury mechanic, is q
wonder that will be better appreciated
&hen the reader is informed that it
would take 146 such engines to weigh
enc ounce ayOirdupOiS.

In his recent annual report to the
secretary of war, Gen. Benet, chief of
the Bureau OF Ordnance, says: s'The
improvements in II agazine mechanism
have been rapid, and it seems peculiar
ly necessary, now that a change in CALI
Der is contemplated, that our present
Springfield single-loading system should
be replaced, if it is possible, by an equal
ly efficient magazine system. Ac-
cordinely this office will recommend
that board be convened to select
suitable magazine mechanism, after
full and free competition among the
best existing systems, as soon as the
necessary preparations can be made.
We have lost nothing by waiting until
the present time. Several European ma
tons during the past few years have
made premature changes of caliber or
have adopted crude repeating systems
that have had to be abandoned for
newer and better ones, often before the
armies were fully armed with them"
Here is fine field for the exercise of
inventive genius.

or that slow, premature decay that seems

means of checking this gradual drain Of

promotes digestion, enriches the blood and
gives substance as we'll as stamina to an
