To operate this novel salt farm a
plow was designed, drawn By q cable
attached to a small steam locomotive.
This locomotive passed to and fro on
q miniature track, and by means Of a
big grooved wheel, set horizontally in
the fashion Of a street cable, the plow
was drawn at right angles TO the en-

was heaped in great cones, placed in
cars and shipped to the market, the
greater part OF it requiring no refining

The salt farm was profitable indus

Rugged him to his breast. Signs
echoing in a far corner Of the gallery

the aged Negro Gomez weeping as IL
heart broken.

that was all the emotion Of Sebastien
allowed him to express.
"Sebastien!" said Murillo. turning
towards him, your pencil has be-

your request proves you are a man
OF good heart. The artist is thus

Sebastien, casting a timid glance
