some cases better than, any stories their
authors ever wrote.

These pictures really illustrate and illu-

the one invented By y. II Hiiln
and Charles F. Ice, both in the ern-
pIoy Of the Fairnlont Coal Company
Mr.. Hulln is employed at New Ile-
land and isa nnachinist there while
Mr.. Ice is employed at GYPSY.
The box car loader Is entirely DIFF
ferent from any thing ever built de-
signed to do the same work Where
other machines for loading coal into
box cars are complicated and entail
great cost for keeping in repair, the
rotary box car loader is simple and.
IS inexpensive to make and to keep
in repair. As a matter of fact none
have ever been repaired They are
so simple in construction that no
part of it can wear out except

The idea is that of wheel with
in a wheel The rotary loader is
enclosed in a casing, open in the
center and on one side. The coal
to be loaded into the car is dropped
into the opening in the front of the
casing and the rotating wheel takes
the coal and throws it into either
end of the car as desired. The
word throws. is used advisedly.
While the rotating wheel throws the
coalsit does not break it aszdo other
STYLES of box car leaders. Indeed
the chief feature of the looder is the
fact that it does not break up the
coal, but preserves it as comes from
the mine. A long shaft which can
be run out considerable distance re-
wolves from the impetus given it by
a motor attached to the rear of the
loader. This shaft turns the wheel
and the wheel throws the coal. En-
tirely simple in makeup and con-
but simple as it is, it was
never thought of until made by the
gentlemen who made the first one
now being used by the Fairmont
Coal Company.
At New England, where the gen
eral shops of the Fairmont Coal
Company are located, the machines
are set up by Huhn, one of the in
rentors. The first loader made is
now in use at New England. It is

he will recover his usual good health.

as possible after the father had been
taken i'll, they ARRIVING here the form

it will be good news to his many

Letter to Browning Bros.
Oakland, I'D.

Dear Sirs: POrterhouse, so much;
neck, so much; all the way between.
Just so with paint. Devoe lead and
zine is the porterhouse. Nobody
wants the neck; the between, some
say, is good enough for them.
But Devoe costs less, not more,
than between. Lead-and- oil is be-
tween; it is the old-fashion paint. But
zinc has come in. Zinc toughens white
lead. Devoe lead-a nd-zinc is the paint
that wears twice as long as lead and
oil
Mr.. John n. Deitel, Fair Haven, n
Y, writes.
Mr.. Charles HOllenbeck, : he
place, painted his house three years
ago with Devoe lead:and-zinc; his
father painted at the same time with
lead-and-oil. To-day the sons house
looks as well asthe day it was paint
ed, while the fathers house has all
chalked off and needs painting very
badly. The father saws he Will paint
with Devoe next time"
Yours truly
