Throughout the winter and early
spring, while the finishing touches were
being given the great Exposition build
ings, chance visitors had opportunity to
see very odd machine in operation--a
machine for painting and calcimining on
a great scale.
The necessities Of these vast structures
may be said to have compelled the inven-
ton of such contrivances. For here were
millions of square feet Of woodwork, much
of it in the rough, such as the neither
sides Of gallery floors and floorings, to be
colored. To paint or calcimine all those
by handwork would have been tedious
and expensive.
To meet. this want for cheap, rapid
painting Mr.. F. D. Millet, director of
decorations, and his assistant, Mr.. G. Y.
Turner, have produced device which
meets the demand.
Almost every one knows what an
"atomizer" or "spray" is. By means
of hollow rubber bulb, squeezed by the
hand, and bottle provided with tube
and nozzle, liquid perfume or medicine is
sprayed on handkerchief or into the
throat or nostrils.
This newly invented painting machine
may be described best by likening it to a
hugh atomizer. The bottle is replaced
by tank as large as sugar barrel, and
the hand that squeezes the bulb is five
horse power electric motor, or steam-en-
CINE.
The liquid calcimine, or paint, is put in
the tank, with which two lines of hose
are connected. The motor is set at work
pumping in air, until an internal pressure
Of twenty pounds or more to the square
inch is indicated. Two workmen then
take up the nozzles attached to the far
ends of the hose, and spray the color on
the walls, or ceilings.
Fourteen of these painting machines
have been in operation inside the great
buildings. Each machine requires the
services of three men, but will paint as
rapidly as twenty painters working with
hand brushes. A single machine, work
ing eight hours, has painted thirty thou
sand square feet.

Air as Fuel.

A revival of the interest in the practical
use of air as fuel is remarked upon, and the
process which is now claimed to be the
most successful in accomplishing this end

Fallacies Concerning Electricity.

The current fallacies as to electricity
which are believed in by many unscientifc
people OF course are not recognized by sci
entific electricians. Many persons believe
and even assert that electricity will super
sede steam, being ignorant of the fact that
electricity requires some potent expendi-
ture OF power to generate it, and that the
electrical machines or dynamos which pro-
duce these results have to be worked by
some agency, such as a steam engine, gas
engine or by water power. One great ad-
vantage, however, is that the electrical en-
ergy, once produced, can be conveyed long
distances through properly protected wires.

The Elizabethan Petticoat.

While apparently no one wants the wild
ened skirts these are slowly but surely
working place for themselves. The nov
city in petticoats here depicted is intended
to keep out the lower part of the dress, as
is now demanded by fashion. By adopting
1t there is no need to have recourse to GRIN
oline or wires of any description. It's OBJ
ject is to obviate the difficulty that will be
experienced as the season advances of lin
ing thin materials, such as crepon, slight
silks, etc., with horsehair stiffening This
petticoat has deep silk band in front,
terminating with fluting of horsehair.
The plated back is entirely of horsehair.

Almighty Dollar.

Almighty dollar is an Americanism for
mammon, the love of gold, and seems to
have been first used by SO classical writer
as Washington Irving-''the almighty
dollar, that great object of universal de-
votion throughout our land" Yet, after
all, as Farmer points out, this is merely an
old friend with new face, for Ben Jonson
used the term in it's modern sense when
speaking Of money:

Ipecacuanlla.

Ipecacuanha is an Indian word. This
emetic comes from very humble shrub,
and the root is the part used. When we
take it in large dose, it makes us violently
sick; if in smaller dose, it loosens hard
cough, and yet a less quantity is good for
the appetite and digestion.

PARIS STYLES.

French Modistes Are Forcing Short Bell
Shaped Skirts aud Other 1880 Fashions.
The fashions seem to be in a state of tran
sition. The foremost Paris costumers are
working experiments and trials to eewhat
will take There seems tendency to re-
turn to the style of 1880, with round, short
bell shaped skirts, very tight on the hips
and very wide at the foot, the widths Of
material very much gored. This quantity
of stuff at the base will form godets or
rounded plaits. To keep these well in form,
a band Of crinoline or horsehair will be
placed between the dress and the silk lin
ing. Models seen of this style of skirt
measure or 0 yards round the lower edge.
Trimmings will be worn higher up on the
skirts than they have been lately, and lace
founces put on fat one above the other
nearly up to the waist as they were worn
in the time of Louis Philippe and this is
what they are pleased to call la grande
