object is to indicate and display con-
spicuously who is entitled to the next
turn" SO as to allow Of no mistake.
1t Is designed to improve the methods
at present employed in barber shops
for serving customers and to insure
the serving Of customers in the order
of their entry In the store, a feature
being a ticket holder, from which
numbered tickets are withdrawn and
distributed to the customers for their
designation, and also for displaying
successfully consecutive numbers de-
noting the service. When q customer
enters the store he secures his ticket
indicating his number lin turn" Each
time the barber finishes with the Gus
toner in hand he turns a small lever
on the machine, which rings a bell
and at the same time changes the
number, which indicates who is next
entitled to the chair. There Is no
chance of a mistake being made, and
1t would be unnecessary for the Gus
toner, as is usually the case, watch
ing and keeping in mind who is ahead
of him and when his turn comes.

there was good fishing in the lake
and that perhaps we might have the
pleasure Of seeing him there before
the season was over. He had said
that he got tired at times of autome-

WINDMILL ELECTRIC POWER.
We11-Known Device May Become
Great Utility

Well-Known Device May Become Of
Great Utility.
Like the trolley lines which run far
out into rural districts and bring many
small hamlets into close communica-
ton with great cities; like the rural
free delivery of mail, with its new
facilities for the enjoyment of post
office service for getting the news Of
the world, and for traffic Of the kind
which used to BIZ very inconvenient for
farmers, the windmill promises much
more than 1t has already given the
agricultural districts of the United
States, says the Cleveland Leader. In
this country and in Europe recent cx-
periments in the use Of wind power
for generating electricity for lighting
houses and barns and operating farm
machinery are full of interest and sug-
gest great advances in the same direc-
ton within the next few years. In
parts of the West where irrigation Is
often needed to supplement the uncer-
tain and sometimes inadequate rain
fall, big windmills are used for pump
| ing water from wells into irrigat ting
| bitches in the driest months and the
same mills generate power enough for
electric motors to light buildings and
| to cut feed and do other work of like
| nature.
To get more power is only a ques-
ton Of more w1ndmills. To insure an
| adeouate s1lDDly of electricity for light
ing purposes and for operating farm
machinery is a matter Of storage bat
teries So far these experiments are
not for poor men to undertake. but the
rich are making tests which promise
ultimately to make the application OF
wind-generated electric power to the
wants of American rural life one OF
the most important additions to the
pleasures and comforts OF the farm.

parts and the unique way in which

There is always great danger in carry
ing lighted lamp, especially in going
up or down stairs, and SO many peo-
pie realize this danger that they pre-
fer to use candles. The device shown
here is simply an extinguisher for
candles, being adjusted to extinguish
the candle after predetermined
amount Of the light has been consum-
ed. An alarm bell is attached to the
extinguisher, so that it may be sound
ed a few minutes before the extin-
guisher can operate to enable the user
to adjust 1t. The cap on the left OF
the handle is in the form of hollow
cone, pivotally hinged to the cylindri-
cal bracket which Is secured to the
candle. A small prong projects upward
from this bracket, resting against the
candle, while another pivot pin on
the opposite side presses into the can
die a short distance above the prong.
This pivot pin works In connection
with a striking head for the bell, SO
that when the candle burns to the
pivot pin the latter is released, permit
ting the head to strike the bell. When
the candle burns further down to the
prong, q coiled spring releases the cup,
which rises and descends over the
fame of the candle, extinguishing it.
