Back IN tie early eighties Dr. s. s.
Wheeler, an electrical engineer OF New
York, was experimenting with u small
electric motor. In the course OF his ex-
perimcntS the doctor conceived the
idea that steamboats, might be run
with electricity If the propegers could
be directly connected 10 high speed
electric motors, doing away with all
the gears then in use in steam propul-
SION. With this idea ia mind he had a
small screw propeller constructed and
fastened II to the armature shaft OF
his small motor. To his surprise the
experiment resulted in 4 fne brseze OF
cooling air which more than delighted
the eIperimenter, for the day WAS de-
cidedly hot. II ID needless 20 add that
the experiments with screw propellers
ended right there. and the engineer
took up the study OF the electric fan.
with the result that he soon perfected
the device until it WIS q commercial
success.

EIGHT CENTS A DAY.

Workers Pay In England Whom Board
Was a Shilling a Week.
There was n time when a workman
in England received 8 cents day rs
an ordinary wage, when skilled ar
tisans commanded IL cents day and
when women worked in the field at
such tasks as reaping straw, hoeing.
planting beans and washing sheep
for cents a day, and a wise student
OF the subject has expressed the opin-
ion that the British workman Of that
day was better or than he has ever
been since then.
That sounds paradoxical. But the
explana ton is this: The workman
who sold his services for s cents 9
day could buy good beef or mutton for
III cents . pound. Wheat cost him on
the average only Is cents a bushel
He could get board for l. TO 16 cents
q week. The pay he would receive for
fifteen weeks services would suffies
TO purchase q supply of suitable food
stufrs. according to the standard of his
time consisting of whest, malt and
