confession he stepped to the ''saoristy
book to inscribe his name. The offici-

and profession.

CLEVER AMERICAN MECHANICS.

Their Ingenuity In Woodwork Attracting
Attention In Foreign Countries.
I. The mighty advance in wood working
machinery. in the United States has
evoked surprise everywhere. In Amer.
lea the idea is to make everything Of
wood without hand labor, automatical-
" where possible. This desire has been
SO successful that it is rare exception
q factory is found employing handwork.
Every known description OF woodwork,
out Of every kind of wood. is made en-
tirely Of machinery Many of these ma
chimes are veritable wonders, perform
ing their work with readiness and &C.
curacy that excite the most profound at
tention. Some Of the English experts
say Of them that they are the best ex
amples of ingenuity ever produced, but
of lighter construction than the Eng
lish make. But one must bear in mind
that American iron. when cast into
form, is very much tougher and hencs
does not require SO much Of it to give
their machines strength and solidity.
This is hardly true of English iron, and
in consequence their machines contain
q great deal more weighs in iron and
consequently look more I've, but by
experience has been pf6s is,s sconclu-.
sively that the latest improved Ameri-
can machines are just as strong and just
as capable in durability-as those made
by the English makers.
Progressive English manufacturers
and there are few of them-are gradu-
ally waking up to the fact that if they
want to hold their own in the commerce
Of the world they will be compelled.
through necessity. to employ the later
and more economical methods to pro-
duoe their manufactures. To do this
they will have to turn to the Ameri-
cans. much as it may be against their
inclinationa American furniture, made
entirely with machinery, is now getting
q foothold in England and attracts the
admiration of English buyers not only
for its beautiful designs and finish, but
for the superb construction, and lastly
it can be obtained at moderate price.
Other articles Of wood for domestic

etc., are fast creeping in to the disad-

turer succeeds it is only through the use
Of machinery, and therefore the Eng

American idea by using American ma

GERMAN WHIST.
Cne Of the Fcw Interesting Games Of Cartis
~ For Two Hands.

Vne OF the Fow Interesting Games OF Cafus
For Two Hands.
There are, for some undiscovered rea-
E',n, very few simple two handed card
games. And Of these the best, and per.
haps the least known, is German whist
Essentially game of skill, there is
sufficient element of luck combined to
insure good game even between two
unequal players, and the issue is always
more or less uncertain until the last mo-
ment.
An ordinary pack of whist cards is all
that is required, and as far as play ia
concerned the rules of whist are almost
entirely applicable. Thirteen cards are
dealt to each player, as in the ordinary
four handed game. Instead, however.
Of turning up the twenty sixth card, the
twenty seventh card is placed face up
ward on the remainder of the pack. The
suit of this card remains trumps through
out the game.
The Dealers vis-a-vis plays first by
leading card, and the dealer must fol-
low suit as in whist, or, if he cannot;
either trump or throw away useless
card.
The first trick is now on the table,
and whoever picks it up draws tile
trump card from the top of the pack.
The card below this is drawn by the
loser, who does not show it's face. The
third card on the pack is now turned
up and will belong to the winner of the
second trick, the loser again drawing
the card underneath, and so on through
out the pack. In this way the player
has 13 cards in his hand until the end.
As tricks of two are difficult to keep
distinct, it is generally found advisable
to pile them indiscriminately for the
time being and to count them out at
the end of each game.
In playing the cards have the ordi-
nary whist valuations, and when the last
cards have been drawn the 13 which re-
main in the hand are played out in the
usual way. The difference between the
number Of tricks taken by the dealer
and his opponent is the number of points
the winner scores. Each game is usual
ly considered complete in itself, but it
is no unusual occurrence to find at the
end that each player has 13 tricks.
1t is difficult in such a short space to
give any reliable hints for players. but
any one accustomed to whist will fall
into the way at once. Obviously. how
ever, it is not always All advantage to
take the card which is turned up, and
in the case Of this being low one a
speculative player will often lead the
lowest card in his hand in the hope Of
drawing something better underneath.
The player is happy who when it comes
to playing the last l3 cards, finds him
self with one long suit and the majority
of trunips!-Home Notes.

In addition to this, the towns bear a
large share of the burdens of taxation
all which would fall op the farmer
were these towns to disappear.

No argument is needed to convince
one that the town needs the country,
but is it not just as true that the farm
ers are dependent on the towns for
very much that makes life endurable.
