son. He (Billy Burke seemed pretty
well out of IT, Miss Smith had meant

attentions had really overpowered her.
tBe hour of parting came. Mr.. Burke,

The First Elevators.

The idea involved in our modern
'1ift'' or elevator was anticipated in
the middle of the seventeenth century
by velager, who also established the
first letter boxes in Paris in 1853. We
layers lift was in demand until a mis-
hap occurred to the kings daughter at
Versailles. The mechanism failed to
work when she was halfway up, and
thtre She stuck for three long hours
until the servants could break away the
wall to release her. His flying chairs"
then fell into disrepute. The appara-
tus was simple in the extreme; Just a
chair attached to a rope which was
passed over pulley, with weight rs
counterbalance at its other end. In
1850 some one brought out as new
invention an imitation of this primi-
tive lift, which has developed into our

from Inc FARMER and Breeder.
Few things have added more Of its
usefulness. to the farm home than the
telephone. Both for business and social
arrangements 1t is most wonderfully
convenient. The delivery OF tetegrams
and other messages by It's use saves
both time and expense. The weather
report is given in many Of tina farm
homes and the accuracy with which
storms are foretold is such tina farm
operations n pleasure trips may be
arranged in accordance Herewith. at
least by those who do not desire to get
wet. 1t seldom rains when the report
has been for clear weather.
Market reports are given In a similar
manner and he farmer is so we'll post
ed that the dealefshas no chance to
take advantage OF him even II he SO
desired; 1t is said that more than half
OF the farmers Of Iowa get the weather
and market reports daily, and the num-
Der is increasing very rapidly each
year. Other states are not far behind.
Social duties are arranged by tele-
quainted by reason thereof. The gath
ering of. help in threshing time will pay
more than a months rent Of the tele-
phone and in case Of fire. sickness. or
other trouble ones neighbors can be
called in hor time. Farmers who de-
sire can seek customers for ths smaller
supplies, eggs, butter, vegetables or
berries, among their town friends by
telephone n many are doing consider
able business in this line. With the
telephone. the rural mail and the COM
ing parcels post the farm will be ever
mose desirable than it now Is.
