REVOLVING Tooth Brush.

The dentist will tell you that II Is
of vital importance in cleaning the
teeth that tho brush be moved toward
the edge of the teeth instead of toward
the gums, as the improper use of the
brush will cause the gums to recede
from the teeth and expose the roots to
the action Of decaying acids and other
detrimental matter. The new brush
shown in the accompanying drawing
has been designed with a view to
meeting this demand for movement in
single direction, having a mechanism
which prevents backward rotation
when the handles are relaxed for CIV
ing fresh impetus to the brush. AS
will be seen, the handle is designed
to contract in the hand, and is ex-
panded again by the Vshaped spring
at the ends. The shaft which carries
the circular brush has a toothed wheel
at the opposite end, and reversible
rack bar is attached to the upper
handle to rotate the shaft as the
handles sare contracted. This rack
bar Gamble shifted to either side of
the shaft to move the brush In oppo-
site direction, and as ratchet is To-
Gated inside the gear wheel to trans
NIT the motion to the shaft the latter
remains motionless while the rack
bar is moving backward. With lit
tie practice the operator can produce a
rapid rotation of the bristles In the
proper direction on either side of the
face, cleaning the teeth much more

operates py the Sense OF ioucn.
Of touch may be more fully utilized
than is possible with most machines
of this character.
This machine has the type on spring
fingers. and all the fingers are secured
to the bar. which slides on horizon
tai rod. To print the proper character
1t is only necessary to insert the fln-
ger in the wire bale which lies above
the fiat plate on which the letters Of
the alphabet are embossed, printed or
countersunk: move the bale along un-
til the finger is in line with the letter
desired, and depress the plate. A
spring tongue on the plate transmits
the motion to the type finger. which
Is forced downward until 1t strikes the
ribbon everything the paper. At each
depression of the plate rachel feed
moves the paper forward to the next
space.
1t is the sliding OF the wire bale
back and forth to insert the finger in
the proper character which brings the
type finger beneath the tongue for
printing, and as there is no adjust
ment of the mechanism in addition to
this movement the machine could
probably be worked by a blind man,
if the selecting characters were en-
bossed on the plate.
Water Curtains for Fire Protection.
The principle of the so-called water
number of years ago for fire protec
ton in theaters, being intended to cut
off the auditorium from the stage, has
of late been applied in many instances
for ordinary building protection the
arrangement being such as to cause
water to fall in sheet-either all
around structure or down one side
or several sides of it. In the case of
one large public building, of which
particulars have recently been given
finch steel water main is laid
around the top of the structure, upon
the broad stone table formed by the
top of the coping. This pipe is con-
nected with force pumps in the base
ment, and, through perforations prop
erly arranged, insures the introduc-
tion of substantial sheet of water
from cornice to pavement, around the
whole or any imperiled portion of the
building. The arrangement of the
system of piping is said to be such as
to permit of operating in prescribed
sections, and additional relays of
smaller pipe are placed in position
above windows and doors in order to
complete the curtaining of these
points in the most serviceable manner,
should the curtain in the main be
broken by wind impinging against
the building or through some other
cause.

TO CRUSH THE UNION
Charge Against W u. Tele-
graph Company.
Commercial TeIegraphers' Union Files Peti'
ton Asking for an Injunction Against
the Company.
fBy the Associated Press }

st. Louis, Mo-, May S.-The Commercial
Telegraphers Union of America, today
fled a petition in the United States Dis
trict Court, asking Judge Adams to issue
an injunction to restrain the Western
Union Telegraph Company from discharg.
ing men belonging to the union.
The petition states that the Western
Union Telegraph Company, t. H. Boone,
A H. Bohle and G. j. Frankel. who are
also named as defendants, have unlaw-
fully combined and confederated to de-
stroy the Telegraphers' Union, and intend
to discharge from the Western Union
service all telegraphers who are mem
bers. 1t is alleged that the officers are
interfering with the members of the
union, and by threats and intimidations
are trying to prevent the company's en-
ployes from becoming members of the
union. The petition states that the
Western Union has established and main
tains a blacklist on which are kept the
names of persons who formerly have been
in the employ of the company, and have
been discharged or have incurred the dis
pleasure of the officers or chief opera
tors of the company. The immediate
issuance of a restraining order is asked
for
