A Lucky Accident.

As an example of how a remunera-
tive speciality in hardware forced it.
self on receptive and appreciatlve
Yankee, the following incident will bo
of interest:
Among manufacturers small cast
ings are often put in revolving
cylinders with pickers or stars made
of cast iron, having usually six points,
the extremes of which are about all
inch apart.
They are also familiar to toy deal
ers. who sell them to children as
"jackstones. The pickers, together
with small castings, are put into the
tumbling barrels, SO that any particles
Of sand adhering may be removed and
better finish given the CASTINGS.
A large and well.known New Eng
land concern, which, in addition to
the other lines, manufacturers screw
wrenches largely, formerly used a
peculiarly shaped malleable iron fer
rule, with irregular openings at the
four sides and circular openings at the
two ends, weighing about an ounce.
Some of these ferru!es chanced to be
part of the contents in one of tho
tumbling barrels. When the barrel
was opened the attendant noticed,
what to him seemed almost incredible,
that the picker with all It's prongs was
inside the ferrule, the openings OF
which we're comparatively small. The
observant mechanic logically con-
cluded that as it had got in it could
be got out again.
The phenomenon was brought to the
attention of parties who decided to
apply the idea in puzzle, and the re.
suit has been that the original manu-
facturers are now making the two
