An electric ventilator for supplying
a building with fresh air. either cold
or warm as desired. is so arranged
that the electric motor sets the venti-
lator revolving, which sucks cool air
in. When warm air Is desired, q
current is set into network OF fine
wire possessing high resistance, and
through the network the air is obliged
to pass; the current heats the wires
and the air becomes heated. The
movement OF a commutatOr Is suffi-
cient to change the character OF the

A POstscrIpt.

A curious postscript was once added
to letter by General Israel Putnam.
A spy named Palmer, sent by Sir
Henry Clinton, the British command
er. had been detected furtively collect
ing information of the force and con-
dition of the post at Peekskill. and had
undergone a military trial. A vessel
OF war came up the Hudson in all
haste. and landed flag of truce at
Verplanck's Point by which mes
sage was transmitted to Putnam from
Clinton. claiming the said Palmer as
lieutenant in the British service.
Putnam replied: 'HEAD-QuARTERs.
9TH August 1777. Edward Palmer,
an officer in the enemy's service was
taken as a spy lurking within our
lines; he has been tried as spy, and
shall be executed as a spy; and the
flag is ordered to depart Immediately.

ordered broiled mackerel. and he ate

that broiling is the only way TO cook

broiled? Not much. 1t is too much
trouble to broil a fish; so the cook put
it in q pan and fried it. and then made
burnt lines across 1t with redhot

How 70 Examine . Hor,e,

When examining horse with q
view to purchasing always have him
led down a steep or stony descent at
the end OF a halter and with no whip
near him. Many horses when brought
out OF the stable are excited by the
presence of strangers and still more
so by the presence of a whip. A
slight lameness may therefore be mo-
mentarily overlooked by the horse
himself just as a man. under strong
excitement will sometimes forget a
sore foot Leading the horse down a
slope will show any defect in his fore
quarters, and running him back will
develop any weakness that may exist
in his hind legs Horse sharpers
know these facts as we'll as anybody
