stlekino Pins in Papsr.

The modern pin-making machine
works automatically and completes
the pin. with the exception Of coloring
and polishing. without the aid Of hui
man hands. In 1s41 the device for
sticking pins in rows Of papers was in
vented by Samuel Slocum of Connecti-
cut and put in use in the factory
where pins were made by DR.. Howe's
machine. It was later improved By
Thaddeus Fowler. This machine Is de-
scribed as scarcely less ingenious than
the pin-mahng invention. BY the use
of these devices the total pin product
IN this country, chiefly in Connecticut,
was a little over 50.000.000 gross in
1900, Of which about 47500,0O0 were
ordinary pins, about 100000 were
safety pins and about 100000 were
hairpins.

cranes approach, and. swooping down
on those bundles of feathers and noise
