The curious American walked forward
to where Ouida was reclining on a couch
and said:
well, you ought to like Americans.
They are the only respectable women who
read your vile books.h
Ouida arose in astonishment. As soon

now hPUZILE Was SOLVED,

When you want certain article, you want
the best make of that article, don't you?
But how to determine which make is best
is what puzzles you, isn't it?
And when the puzzle is solved for you,
10y authority which cannot be questioned,
You are pleased. aren't you?
And you would like to hear Of one puz.
zle that has been solved for the people OF
the whole world, wouldn't you?
Well, we will tell you about that very
puzzle, and its solution.
At the Universal Exposition Of 1899 at
Paris, France, the best sewing machines of
the world. including those of America, were
in competition. They were passed upon by a
jury composed of the best foreign mechan-
ical experts. two Of whom were the leading
sewing machine manufacturers OF France.
This jury, after exhaustive examination
and tests, adjuaged that the Wheeler &
Wilson machines were the best of all, and
| awarded that company the highest prize Of
fercd, tho GRAND PRIZE, giving other
companies only gold, silver and bronze
medals.
The French Government, as a further
recognition OF superiority, decorated Mr..
Nathaniel Wheeler, president of the COM
pany, with the Cross of the Legion CT
Honor, the most priced honor of France.
That Is how the puzzle of tho best sewing
machine in the world was fully solved by the
most competent authority in the world in
favor of the no. and No. IL Wheeler &
Wilson machines.
Tho No. $, for family use, and the No. 10,
for manufacturing uses, are Tie Lest in the
world to-day.
And now. when You want sewing ma
chine, if you do not get the best, it will be
yonr own fault.
Ask your sewing machine dealer for the
No. 0 Wheeler q Wilson machine, and if he
does not keep them, write to Us for descrip-
tive catalogue. prices and terms.

A Novel Fire Escane.

Fire escapes have hitherto as a rule
been limited to ropes and ladders, which
are often rendered useless either by the
fire or by the rush of people and the
difficulty women aud children have in
making use Of them. A newly patented
fire escape seems to avoid many of the
usual drawbacks. It consists Of a form
of elevator, attached to the back of a
building, with freproof doors leading
into it from the end of each hallway on
every floor. The doors close automati-
cally and the person entering it is at once
shut off from the fire. lie steps on d
platform in the elevator and his W
weight will take him to the bottom and
land him out Of doors. The elevator
works automatically and cannot be put
out of order by hasty use. The weight
of a child is sufficient to send it to che
bottom the speed being regulated auto
matically by a common governor attached
to the top. Any number of people
could be going down at the same time
without increasing the speed. The plat
forms are attached to an endless chain,
folding as they pass up and falling into
place as they come doWn.-Chieago Meus.

One of the Rare Metals.

Those with only an elementary knowl.
edge of chemistry are aware that there
are more than forty recognized metals.
A large number of these can only be
regarded as ~curioslties of the laboratory,
for there is no specific use for them; in
deed, they are found in nature IN such
minute quantities that some Of them are
far more precious than gold.
Among these rare metals is wolfram,
or tungsten, a use for which has been
found since guns of enormous calibre
came into vogue.
1t is unfortunately a matter of com.
mon knowledge that these guns are
liable to fracture; but it has been found
that by adding a very small percentage
of tungsten to the fine steel of which the
inner lining is made IN elasticity is con-
ferred upon tue metal which it did not
possess before, SO that it will bear cx-
pansion aud contraction under heavy
discharges without giving way.
Tungsten is a waite metal of very
brittle quality, az it spes.ae grayity IS
only a trifle less than that OF gold

Our agricultural colleges deserve the
favor and hearty support Of our farmers,
declares the New YORK 0jseroer, for,
taken as a whole, they are doing much
good to the cause of agriculture. There
are some individual schools that as yet
have not fallen wholly into iiae with
what should be the main purpose of
their existence, but that is no reason why
all should be con lemaed. The report OF
one Of these colleges now before us
shows that thirty-six per cent. of all its
graduates are practically engaged in
farming, while four per cent. ara
engaged ia the other industrial pursuits
for which the college fitted the n, and
seven per cent. are Presidents or Pro-
fessors of other agricultural schools.
Thus ~forty-seven per cent. are engaged
In the line of work for which the college
especially trains. We doubt il many
technical schools can show al cool an
average. And il Is to be presumed that
a. time passes . larger nu nber will be
found in agriculture, as many of the
graauates are compelled TO follow other
ayocatioas OF FIRST in order to earn anc
save the. money necessary to establish
themselves upon the farm.
