A new brick baking machine is to be
noted among the recent mechanical novel
ties. 1t is a simple oontriyanee, consisting
Of table covered with iron brick molds
to which an electric current is applied. the
table being by Il feet, and holding O00
molds, joined together like pigeon holes.
Each mold is the size of brick whi3. has
been pressed but not baked, and each has 3
cover so ltted as to follow the brick as IL
shrinks. The bricks are taken from the
presses and placed in the moIds, the cover
adjusted and the current turned on. The
iron sides of the n1olds form the ''resist-
anoe," and the bricks are virtually inclosed
by walls of fire. The bricks having shrunk
to the proper size, the sinking covers of
the molds automatically turn off the cur
rent, the baking is done, and the bricks are

OF its hardships and perils. The story Of
one enterprising woman is already ahoat.
She managed by private agreement with
81 women-maids, spinsteFs, widows-to
secure the right to one square mile. These
Amazons had their steeds ready, and when
the signal gun sounded each was off pell-
NELL to the sq9N mile, whose goodly out
side had prevloGAy claimed the notice OF
the fair organizer. They reached the goal

The Need q yyoman.. sIana..,r,.,


The need Of women in the management
Of public homes and charities is empba-

( by the cor0ners INVESTIGATION Of the san
Francisco Founding asylum, where 80 bs-
Dies have died within the last six weeks.
The place has been closed. The coroner de-
clared that the 33 children died from laei,
Of nutrition and from inanition and penn
phigus. The nurses and attendants oc

under the doorsteps and kept them tbers
until he came to take them away ne md
found three bodies cast ont fndiscrininate-
ly into the box at one time he removed
them without notifying the people at ma
asylum.
These facts are given by the newsnapers
without comment. But they ought te
arouse women all over the country to their
political duties. We venture the opinion
tbat there is not a single public Charity
hospital or asylum from the manaoemant

more or less for want Of yvomen's
