Stone Cutting BY rlachinery.

One of the greatest labor saving
devices of the times is the invention of
William Stoughton, of Dubois, Pa. A
former Emporiumite. This wonder
full machine will dress up a stone in a
few minutes which would require full
half days work by hand in the old
fashioned way.
The machine practically takes the
place of the hammer and point, the
chisel and bushing hammer. 1t will
cut stone in any desired shape and
put any kind of finish on it in such q
short space of time that it hardly seems
worth while running it through the
machine. Mr.. Stoughton's chief aim
in his invention bas been simplicity
There is no complicated mechanisms
or parts that will easily get out of
order. A detail ed description of the
machine is too lengthy to be given, ,suf-
flee to say, the machine consists of n
plurality of eccentrics, a set of bits or
cutters each running at the rate of two
hundred and twenty five strokes a
minute. On a machine carrying six.
teen bits the combined number of
| strokes would be three thousand and
six hundred a minute.
1t is capable of doing twenty mems
work orhaving an earning capacity of
$50 90 per day. The motive power is
| steam.
The machine is operated by one
man. Mr.. Stoughton has been q year
and a half perfecting his device and
has finally been rewarded by success.
Not being financially able to carry on
the business himself he interested Chas.
M. Kresge.
| A considerable sum of money was
spent for experimental purposes and
finally crude machine was set up.
This looked so promising that a COM
pany was Immediately organized to
manufacture the machines The
second machine has just been complet-
ed.
Among the stock holders are A. J.
Gocella the Falls Creek quaryman and
M |. Mcreight cashier of the Deposit
Note Bank of Dubois.
The Company expect to realize hand
somely from the investment. The in
vention is fully protected by patents
| and caveats.

Easter Exercises at Baptist Church.

The exercises began with a process.
ional hymn which was heartily sung
by the whole school while filing entire
ly around the outside aisle, then up
centre aisle:to be seated. A very notice
able and pleasant feature, in each and
every number, was the fact that the
smaller children in the school were
selected to fill all places and that they
did it with credit to parents, school
and themselves. The responsive sing.
ing by the little boys upon one side
and the little girls upon the other was
especially pleasing to the assembly.
The church was 80 crowded that
after chair space added to seating cap
acity, standing room also was fully
taken. The echo of that evening upon
the streets is nothing bat praiseful
pleasant sound.

In the primary grades no work

for history and literature. Arithmetic
should not be studied at home until
the High School is reached, or until
the mind is developed so they can rea-
son for themselves. When the High
School is reached there should be home
study and each home should take an
interest in school work.

WASHINGTON WfEDER.
New Company Making Improvements
In Its Plant.

The Washington Weeder Works has
made extensive improvements to the
plant on Elm street. An additional
building has been erected and more
machinery will be added. Manager
Holt said today: The demand for the
Weeder that We are manufacturing is
growing rapidly and we have orders
on file for many machines from ali
sections of Eastern Washington and
Oregon. If we can secure q fair freight
rate from the transportation cOmpan-
les, it will place us in a position to in
crease our plant until it will be one
of the largest factories on the Pacific
coast
"A large number of the Weeders are
now in use in the farming sections
south of The Dalles and many orders
are coming in from the farmers of tina t
part of the country. The weeder is
giving general satisfaction wherever
it has been useG. and they are becom-
ing a universal favorite with the
farmers
