Ises Of the sand-Blast.

Castings, plates, forgings and other
articles made from steel, iron or brass
or cleaned in a few minutes time by
two-horse power sand-blast. From ten
to fifteen minutes only are required to
clean one pounds of castings from
scale, molding-sand and all surface
roughness. An advantage of this
process is that it clears Irregularities
and indentations as well as plain, fiat
surfaces. The sand-blast is also used
for cleaning the stonework of public
buildings. 1t is suggested that the
same means might be employed in
cleaning paint, varn!sh and the like
from doors instead of the old. tedious
and dangerous practice of burning the
surface. 1t could also be used for
cleaning furniture from varnish pre-
paratory to refinishing, an operation
that now consists in scraping and sand
papering, and is expensive and labori-
ous.-N. Y. Ledger.

DIDN'T push 1T OVER.
A Crank Resists Temptation at the wash
ington Monument.


ington Monument.
Washington Is the Mecca OF cranlSs.
and the monument seems to be their
principal shrine. Even the White
| House is not so attractive to them as
the great white shaft. 1t can be seen
for miles around and seems to attract
cranlxs as candle does moths. The
watchmen have become accustomed to
the gentry, and as long as they appear
to be quiet aud well disposed, usually
deal gently with them, however wild
their ideas. One man they tell OF de-
clared that the monument was built OF
human skulls and bones and persisted
in pointing out the faces Of friends in
the stones;but perhaps the oldest speci-
men on record happened down there
the other day.
When the Waterman first observed
him he was leaning heavily against the
shaft, apparently pushing with all his
might--at least he would push for
awhile, and then he would walk around
to the other side, apparently to see II
there were any people there. The
Waterman watched this proceeding for
awhile and then accosted him:
beg pardon; you arn't going to push
it over, are you"
II could if / wanted to-" responded
the man; then, with immense dignity:
'My name is Samson"
"Oh, the strong man?" ventured the
Waterman, sizing up the man, who was
about five feet five, and not apparent
ly very muscular. LET me see, you
were down at Kernan's theater few
weeks ago, weren't you?"
mo, sir" replied the man, sternly.
81 am the reincarnated Samson of
Biblical times; the one who overthrow
the Philistines, Staying thousands with
the jaw-bone of an ass, and afterward
pulling down the pillars of the Temple.
Why, it would be mere child's play for
me to upset this puny monument"
"Well, wouldn't do it If were YOU"
expostulated the Waterman mildly.
'You see this is in memory Of Wash
ington; probably you have never heard
of him, as he was little after your
time; but we moderns think a good
deal of him. Then it cost the govern
ment a good deal of money and took
good many years to build this monu-
ment, end good many people would
consider it unkind of you to destroy it.
Take me, for instance. / am hired to
watch it, and, of course, you would
throw me out of n job. Besides you
might hurt somebody"
''No, was very careful to look on
the other side first" said the man.
But perhaps you think can't do it?
Now you just look up and see me
shake it."
The Waterman was agreeable. Now,
it is fact that when one stands di-
rectly at the base of the monument it
appears to be topping over. This is,
of course, an optical delusion, caused
by the clouds moving overhead; but it
impressed the crank with his power.
''Did you see me shake it?' he in
quired, triumphantly.
yes" responded the Waterman,
solemnly. ''but wouldn't do so any
more. You might weaken the founda-
tions even if you didn't push it over.
Besides, here comes crowd of people,
and not knowing who you are, they
might laugh at you. Then you would
have to push it over to prove it to
them"
That's so" said tie crank, and, bid
ding the Waterman 'Good-day," he de-
parted, and has not been seen about
the monument since. - Washington

Incorrect Uaas.

We lately took occasion to criticise
the writing of anyone or someone as
one word. 1t is suggested to us that
there are one or two other similar and
worse instances of the same sort. Thus
we occasionally see oneself instead OF
ones self, and this is apparently the
common method of writing the words
in England, and Is, of course, liable to
creep into our English. Another in
stance is whatever Is used as an inter
negative. This is very recent inno-
walton, but frequently appears OF late.
For example, Whatever did you do 1t
for?" There Is certainly no authority
for thus making an interrogative out
of the relative pronoun. and tho use
ought to be frowned on.--N. <. tnde-
pendent.
