Tns Lawn Tovv>-.

The lawn mower is generally much
abused by the majority of those who
use it. When nicely adjusted and in
good working order it may be kept so
by hairs breadth turn Of the ADJUST
ing screws or bolts, and no one should
be allowed to NEEDLE with these parts
unless he fully understands them. The
blades Of the lawn mower strike the
cutting bar in such a manner as to be
largely self sharpening, and no ma
chine, If we'll oiled and adjusted, will,
need sharpening unless 1t is run into
stpses or other hard substances that.
indy dull or bend the knives. The Or
dinary machine oil used upon larger
machines than the lawn mower, on
wagons, etc. is too heavy for the lawn
mower, except in very hot weather,
and should be thinned with an equal
amount of Kerosene. No machine will
keep in perfect working order for a
great length of time without cleaning,
and the lawn mower, which Is run
through so much dust and dirt, should
be taken apart once or twice every sea-
son, each part carefully cleaned and
wiped and then freshly oiled. The ma
chimes with large wheels and ball bear
ings run more easily than many Of the
older patterns. but the latter if kept in
perfect order will run with compare
tive case and will do good service, for
many years.-Suburban Life.

Wonderful Paintings.

1t may not be generally known, per-
haps, that the highest price paid for a
picture has not been in modern times,
but was at SO remote period ns that
of Alexander the Great, who gave
Apelles sum equal to $211,000 for
painting his portrait. The king was
represented holding thunder which,
Pliny says, was so llfelike that the
hand seemed too come out Of the pic
ture. Alexander was delighted with
the portrait, had it placed in the tenn
pie Of Diana, at Ephesus, and forbade
any one but Apellcs thenceforth to
draw his likeness.
Apelles attempted another portrait,
which at first sight did not please his
royal patron, but while 1t was being
inspected, says the veracious Pliny,- a
horse passing by neighed at the horse
represented in the piece. supposing it
to be alive, upon which the painter re-
marked that the horse was better
judge of painting than the king.
