 .In Paris mad oats are almost as common as msd dogs. People are often bitten by them while returning from tho theatre.

AMERICAN TOOLS.

Why They Are Recognized as Superior
 to Those of other Countries.
 The progress of a nation can be very well followed by noting the char acter of the tools required in prosecut- ing the manual labor. The crudest agricultural methods are coupled with primitive blows and other instruments of the husbandman. There is an old saying that good workman requires but few tools. and the most elaborate kit collected by modern enthusiastic carpenter when beginning his trade may be no indication Of the workman's s skill but on the other hand, the workman who has added to his stock of implements new though simple aids, is apt to be the one who can do the best work the most rapidly.
 The United States is now recognized as particularly strong in the machine tool industry, says the Engineering Magazine, not only in regard to the higher class of laths. planers and boring machines but in all the minor hand tools measuring devices and graduated scales. and in the many productions that were but few years ago to be had only from importers, poor in quality and design.
 The fundamental principles that underlie the theory of construction of machine tools have been studied by the American engineers melted by the necessity of doing good work in large quantities through the instru- mentality of only moderately skilled workmen whose wages are high.
 1t would be invidious to point to any one man or set of men as presum- ably the originators of what Is theo- retically good in our application of the laws of physics to our embodiment of these laws in labor saving ma chinery, nor will space permit the explanation of how correct principles introduced little by little have been accepted by all. and thus in time become characteristic of our designs.
 That our machine tool makers have produced labor-saving machines capa- ble of doing the best work with less skill on the part of the operatives IS acknowledged by the acceptance of such machinery as models in other countries where. in some cases. still greater improvement has been made while in other cases the best features have been lost through the failure oi the copyist to grasp the theory Of the conception and to understand the motive and aim of the originator.

 Through all he was perfectly collected and strangely calm-there was need of calmness amid all this excitement. Once had he spoken hurriedly, and had almost broken down, when he turned to one Of his own servants and asked
