characteristic charm inherent in Mount Vernon
'ne ola farmhouse at Ridgefeld and the colonial
eAemplaFs generally. Freed from the attempt to
invent an American style, they deserve credit in
mat they come so near to their goal, considering
also the commercial distractions and blandish-
ments which interfere in America
1t would seem that the architect of the modern
farmhouse illustrated had not taken time enough
to work out his adaptation of the Mount Vernon
motive. The attenuated posts have nothing &c
support the portico is careessIy attached and the
windows were inserted wherever a necessity for
one seemed to exist. 1t may be that the inspira-

Mount Vernon at all, but from some mediocre farm

rated with President Jackson in 1S29-the work of

PERPETUAL MOTION IS SOLVED?

two years of actual work, Machezis has his ma
chine all but completed. The machine is FIVE
feet four inches high and ten feet long.
The inventor will say nothing regarding the
operation of his machine for fear his secrets will
be stolen. He intends to take patents out soon
so that he will be safe in giving the public the
details
He is firm in the belief that his product will
have a big commercial value, developing horse
power enough to drive factory machinery and do
all the work now done by the stationary engine.
He says he will explain its operation in detail
and bare all his secrets to any interested
in it.
All that he will say now is that the throwing
of lever will start the machine, and that a large
steel spring, so devised to uncoil and coil al
ternately is its power, and these are obvious
facts.
The machine as it stands now does not repre-
sent the inventors entire idea, there is much
wood in it that will be supplanted by metal tub
ing and rods
Machezis is thirtytwo years old, and has been
in the United States since 1899.

An article in a daily paper telling of cash
offer by French engineering society for sue
cessful perpetual motion machine planted in the
studious head of J. P. Machezis a native of
Lithuania, an idea which, he says, has finally
worked out, according to a Grand Rapids CORE
spondent of the New York World. It in 1906
that he read of the offer. He began thinking, and
in the end concluded that he could build ma
chine. He took wooden soap box and worked
ont his model.
Nothing elaborate resulted but his contraption
worked, he says. He admits that it did not run
"perpetualIy,' because, as he explains, there was
too much friction of the unpIaned parts which
were only loosely hung together. It did operate
long enough however, and without other motive
than its own momentum, to convince Machezis
that he was on the right track
After dismantling his model so that no one
could steal his secret he did nothing for six years
but think, think, think. Not once did he pick
up a tool to put any of his theories in concrete
form, but he got them on paper and kept them
in his head. He altered his model and expanded
on his original idea. He added more uprights
and decreased the number Of lateraIs. He de-
cided to lengthen his guides and make them out
of aluminium and he added a couple of feet to
the length of the machine.
At last his thoughts reached the stage where
they commanded actual construction to start; and
he began in 1912.
Now, after six years of thought and study and

TRUSTEES OF STOUT INSTITUTE

PREME COURT ACTION.
BUILDING DELAY CLAIMED
Petition Alleges Erection of Perma-
nent Structures at State Institute is
being Blocked by Governor for
Political Purposes.

Madison.-A writ of mandamus was
served on the members of the board OF
trustees Of the Stout Institute to show
cause in the Supreme court on June
II, why an order should not be made
permanent compelling them to erect
the buildings at the Stout Institute,
Menomonie, as directed by the last
legislature. The petition on which
Atty. Gen. Walter C. Owen gave his
consent TO bring the suit and on which
Chief Justice j. B. Winslow of the SUI
preme court allows the order to show
cause to issue states that the erection
OF the buildings is being delayed by or
der of Gov. McGovern. 1t suggests
that the reason the governor is caus-
ing this delay is that he is DESTROYS
of creating public sentiment favorable
to his continuance in public office, and
DESTROYS to that end of curtailing or
postponingf public expenditures in all
possible directions until after the pri-
maries and elections for the year 1914
are held"

be said that household servants are the line Oh
demarcaticn between the rich and poor IN America
could the line be not more exactly drawn at such
reasonable mental and physical comforts IN life as
are necessary to health. The kitchen, therefore,
has to be as few steps from the dining room or
dining table may be, yet so perfectly separated
that smells or smoke from the cooking cannot IL
wade the living part of the cottage. Every Amerf
can cottage has to be screened during the summer
with bronze-wire screens to doors and windows
The bronzewire will not rust. The mosquito has
been largely exterminated by scientific measures
for its destruction; but flies and other insects
abound while the screens also arrest the entrance
of cockroaches and mice and so enable the doors
to remain open indefinitely. A bathroom with a
vitreous tile floor and painted walls with rounded
corners like those of a hospital ward, is always
specified. The attic gable rooms of a small cot
