will be seen that as each set of sails
come into the right position for work
they slow down gently against the
arm which supports them and carry
it with them half way around the cir
Gle. The wind then penetrates under
the free lateral edge of each and swings
them all out backward, so that they
offer no resistance as the arm comes
up into the wind again. AS yet, DR..
Shaw has not yet completed his model,
but he believes that there will be no
serious slamming as the sails suddenly
swing back. Should there be trouble
of this kind, however, he would inter
pose spring buffers to lessen the noise
and destructive action consequent upon
the battering of his shutters. An auto
matte regulator, not represented here,
throws the sails out of action in a
gale.
Another device, patented by a car
penter of Topeka, Kan, also has sails
revolving in horizontal plane, and is
provided with means for keeping their
edges to the wind when moving against
the latter. Through vertical shaft
(Which conveys the power obtained
down to suitable transmitting mechan-
ism) he runs two horizontal shafts, az
right angles with each other. These
shafts are arranged to rock, or under
60 partial rotation first in one direc-

WINDMILL NOVELTIES.

Two Recent Attempts to Improve on this
Prevailing Styles.
The use of windmills for developing
power in the rural districts is steadily
increasing, and much thought is now
being given to the possible improve
ment of existing designs. Herewith
we rudely indicate the principles of two
recent inventions. DR.. H. NJ. Shaw, OF
Genoa, n. Y, would have four horizon
tai arms of frames, to each of which
he would attach, by hinges, one or more
vertical sails, either entirely fiat or
made of Stats, shutter fashion, whose
angle with a perpendicular could be
varied. The first diagram gives an idea
of this plan. The solid arrow shows

A GOOD STORY.

Apropos of marriage | heard a
story the other day which struck
me as being woefully true.
1t seems that a young man with
an uncertain heart liked two sisters.
but could not decide which of them
he would choose tor his wife. Final>
ly he asked the assistance of a
friend.
"One of them is tall and beauti-
full, with fair complexion, soulful
eyes and sweet voice. he said in
explanation, but she is not accom-
plished at all. She can't do any
thing she never reads. Can't play
or sing, nor can she sew or cook.
The other girl is ugly, but she plays
and sings divinely, and can sew and
cook to perfection"
"Well, if she can sing" said the
friend, marry her. Beauty will
fade, but if you marry the one who
is accomplished she will always be
able to entertain and amuse you.
Take the ugly one by all means
Acting on this advice the friend
married the ugly one. Two months
later he came home early one AFTER
noon and found his wife asleep on a
sofa. She had on a wrapper and
her hair was rolled up in curl pa
pers and very frowsy and disorder
ed. The husband looked at her in
something akin to disgust, and
finally went over and shook her
savagely.
"For Heavens sake wake up and
sing !" was his order.-At. Com.
