a correspondent states that tho circu-
lar saw was first invented in America
by q combmaker named Hartshorn, who
used a common handsaw to saw out the
horn between the teoth, thus forming
one of those old fashioned horn combs.
Finally, thinking it rather a slow
process, lie took what used to be called
a "Bungtown copper" filed 1t down
thinner, drilled ~ holo through its con-
ter, then squared tho holo and cut the
teeth around its outer edge, placed it
upon q mandrel truo aud permanent,
then put it into his lathe, and with the
flat horn lying upon a wooden rest he
sawed out his combs.
From tho copper he shortly cut up
his backsaw and converted it into cir
cular saws. This man. Hurtshorn, lived
and died i'm Mansfield, Conn. He also
invented the screw and lip anger, also
tho bits, such as are used in the brace.
Ho was asked why he did not put in his
claim for compensation long afterward,
when we had a patent Office.
His reply was that if he had done
anything that was a benefit to his feI-
low men they were welcome to it,

Any doubt that may have hitherto

Of that part Of Egypt through which tho

and French parents, which blend, per-
haps, accounts for the delicate Vola-
tility and warm exuberance Of temper
ament that are the special notes OF her
acting. Miss Boutons first aspirations
appear to have been toward emotional
roles, in which kind she first appeared
playing with Rhea in Sardou's Danger
GUS Game" and in Josephine" have
been told that Miss Bouton nursed the
infant fancy that she was destined to
eclipse Clara Morris, and studied late at
night such roles as Lady Macbeth,
Juliet, and others in which Clara Nor
ris never made any special mark, writes
Lorillard Spencer in the Gallery OF
Celebrities. Still under the impression
that she was born for emotion pure and
simple, Miss BoutOn signed with the
late w. ]. Florence for leads OF this
kind two weeks before his lamented
end. Then she transferred to Stuart
Robson, who wanted an emotional act
ress. After one or two rehearsals Rob-
son said authoritatively: my dear
child, you can't play emotional parts;
you are coincidence" So he cast her
for comedy roles. Her strongest hit
was her Kate Hardcastle, but she was
very effective as The Widow in Hen

and as Clara in Our Bachelors" Miss
Bouton next went into the Palmer COM

she was advanced to leads. The emo

ARE BIRDS GUIDED BY sTARsT
An Attempt to Solve the Great Mystery
90 ptrd NTIOratIon.

An Attempt to Solve the Great Mystery
of Bird Migration.
In an article on Birds Of Passage
the Chautauquan says II one desires
an explanation for the great mystery
Of bird migration, there being nothing
else that will answer he will have to
accept the theory Of hereditary knowl-
edge, a knowledge OF the unfaillng
stars. The Great Bear and Orion APP
peared at the same time in our region,
even when the divisions Of land and
water were very different than they are
today. That the stars are the guides
of birds agrees with the fact that they
fly at remarkable heights, often above
the clouds, and that wanderers lose
their way when they stray into clouds
and mlsts. On starlight nights strag-
Cling birds are seldom noticed. When
the sky Is overcast, when the night Is
dark, but especially when fine rain is
falling, multItudes of travelling birds
are heard. They will call often, doubt
less for the purpose Of keeping near
each other; and often great numbers Of
them bound against the windows Of
lighthouses. Thus Gatke has observed
that on Oct. 2S. 1882. from 10 o'clock at
night till the next morning golden
crested wrens bumped like snowfakes
against the lighthouse Of Heligoland,
and that on the following day golden
crested wrens sat on every square foot
Of Heligoland. Toward the end Of the
summer, along into the fall, 1t was not
a rare occurrence on dark nights to
see, through the light Of street lamps,
birds flying over inland cities. The ex-
perienced observer recognizes by its call
the curlew and the strand-snipe, sea-
swallow and seagull. occasionally hears
even the flap of their wings. But no
bird is visible in the darkness. On dark
nights no stars appear; then 1t is that
the straying L:rd loses his way. The
stars are the most plausible guides to
birds in their mIgrations. But only the
future can tell US whether they really
serve in that capacity.
