Hand Painting by Machinery,

New York Sun: 4 Springfield,
Mass, inventor, II. u. Winter, saws he
has realized, in n recently devised
method, a long felt destination, viz:
The reproduction, mechanically, of
hand painting on ribbed fabrics. with
all the finest effects. The fabric is
first treated with a filler applied in the
form of a liquid, which has a physical
affinity for the colors to be employed
and little or no chemical effect on the
same; it also possesses the quality of
drying into the fabrics, so as TO be-
come "a part of the same after the pic
ture has been reproduce" 0r of evap-
Grating after such reproduction, this
last quality being preferable. On the
fabrics having undergone this treat
men, the ornament or painting Is re-
produced upon it by photographic
printing-stones or plates suitably
prepared-and by the employment of
colors which have an affinity for the
surface from which the printing is
done, as also for the filler. The func-
ton effected by the use Of plano
graphic surfaces is TO allow the col
ors to flow into the fiber of the fabric
and into the ridges and valleys while
the picture is printed without embos-
sing it.

morseful for his harsh accusation.

pause. II was a brute to say what | did"

Lady Elinor, at the understandable. "Ibe-

him.
"And who do you suppose will volunteer

Valerie has already promised, If other

"Why notP / can't walk twelve miles,

"'Vith good rests you can" he answered;

lips, suggested riding instead.

In the wood" said Mrs. Dudley, who had
mentally appropriated Max B~eauregard,
and handed Valerie over TO Lord West

Mrs. Langley said nothing; the walk
commended itself to her, but she was not
going to arouse Valerie's antagonism.
ut is not for me to decide" said Beaure-
gard. 81 put it to the meeting"
Up went Mrs. Dudley's, Valerie's, and
Lord Westbrook's hands for the walk, and
only Angela's for a ride, the rest giving no
vote at all.

Max flung away the cigarette, and sur

a half-unconscious smile in his dark eyes.
"You are a good soldier, Valerie" he
said, always quick and punctual." Then,
after a seconds pause, You had on a

Valerie, pulling on her long gloves, start

a wild bound. He had never before spoken
Of that day; and his doing so now almost

instances In which the theory was carried

there was something even in the theory,
