The methods OF discovery in use in the
institute laboratories are both interesting
and surprising. They disclose one general
fact very plainly-that the trial which
structural materials above all others can
not stand is the trial OF repeated Stress
In other words, II the Brooklyn bridge, or
any other steel structure like II, were
loaded completely full of the heaviest
trains and vehicles It was designed to
carry, and this load were to remain perma-
nently upon It without ever being moved
away, the bridge would last orever-bar-
ring rust. But put these same weights In
motion, so that the entire structure 'trem-
bles with their going, and the result is
very different indeed, because each mem
her. instead OF bearing a steady fixed
weight, undergoes q succession of little
jerks answering to the vibration OF the
bridge as a whole. The brake-rods under
a car work under similarly adverse condi-
tions, for each time the brakes are put on
they receive a strain one way and each
time they are released there is a strain on
the opposite direction.
The case OF the steamship shaft tina

Not the least interesting sight in the
work rooms are the Swedish girls who
manipulate the looms, spinning wheels
and mill These girls su ggest In their
costumes the peasant class the hair parted

the big blue eyes and general air Of re-
pose mark them rs distinct from the ordi-
nary factory girl. as their work is distinct
and pleasing In comparison.
The Scandinavian women are known
the world over for their skill in domestic
matters. The weaving OF carpets, linen
fabrics. r,,gs. &c. are part Of their daily
duties at home. They are prolific in de-
signs for this kind of work, and many OF
the novelties used in this particular estab-
lishment have been brought direct from
Sweden by the head designer, who has
used them in her own home. These mar
ticular designs embrace the embroideries
placed on the rugs "a a finishing touch e.
