in the inkstand and WRITE without die.
tatioh slowly, it is true. but distinctly
and correctly.
APPEARED TO HAVE BRAINS.
Each word occupied a suitable place
at the desired distance from the pre-.
ceding. When line was finished he
commenced a new one. leaving between
them the necessary space. The move.
ments of the eyes and of the arms and
hands were admirably initiated. The
writer might even be interrupted. He
stopped I'm the middle of word if
asked and wrote another.
The means used by Jaquet-Droz for
securing this result have remained un.
known. The courtierc, scientists and
the most skilled mechanisians have
vainly sought to penetrate the mystery,
1t Is needless to say that the writer
performed only in the presence of
Jaquet-Droz, which involves the idea
1t has been supposed that he made use
of magnet concealed in his shoes or
clothing. This idea was suggested by
his habit of walking back and forth
ard turning sometimes TO one side and
sometimes to the other while the au,
tomaton was writing. thus perhaps
being able to attract the hook toward
the wheel with the aid of magnet
and cause it to return by the same
force. The lords OF the court endeav.
ored, by means OF other magnets of
great power concealed in their clothing,
to disturb the working of the appara.
tus. but in vain. The automaton wrote
with the same accuracy. The writer
is still in existence. 1t continues to
write, provided the hook and wheel arc
kept in action by the hand. The mo.
tive force used by the artist is q secret
which unfortunately has been buried
with him.-Sclentific American.
