It is a scientific fact that seventy-five percent of the fuel burned in jtg the ordinary way is lost. Nearly all of this loss is averted by feeding the fuel 0Q from an air-tight magazine, charing the same and consuming the smoke, there- fo?S by making complete combustion. d$?2 Second. By the use of the down draft, it heats the lower portion of the 8e room first, making an evci temperature throughout, and kz ui ing the necessity of making such intense fires in cold weather. Third. By giving double the heating surface. Fourth. By a skilled arrangement of drafts, the fire is at all times under perfect control, and can be kept for many hours with one filling. Fifth. Ten pounds of straw, weeds or trash, or twenty pounds of cobs, will burn from three to six hours, with sufficient heat for cooking, or for heating the rooms. It can be readilv seen that the farmer saves his entire fuel bill by the use of S--i; IN J35 the Girtanner Attachment; and the towns-people save cent, thus keeping the money at home. Further than this, it makes a new home industry, instead of sending millions of money to the coal combines, the heretofore waste products of the farm are utilized to supply the need.

Senator Wolcott's trip to Europe in interests of international bimetallism is being discussed with much interest, both by those who believe international bimetallism to be a tangible something which can bo practically worked and by those who believe it to be what ex Senator Ingalls would call an "irides cent dream." While Sonator Wolcott curries no ofliuin! credentials, it is be lieved that he goes practically at the request of president-elect McKinley and of the caucus committee charged with the preparation of legislation in the interest of international bimetall ism, of which he is chairman, and It is kaown that ho goes at the request of the Bimetallic League. These facts aro net likely to be overlooked by European statesmen whom lie meets. There are several reasons why Sena tor Welcott will roceive a cordial wel come in England, net the loaat of which is the speech ho niado on the Venezuelan question at the last sosslon of congress, which was reprintea or favorably commented upon by every paper of prominence in Great Britain. Most of the ultra-gold men agreo with the ultra-silver men, that Senator Wol cott's errand will bo fruitless, but there nro a number of conservatives who are firmly of tho opinion that international bimetallism can and will bo urougnt about, auu some 01 menu, like Sonator Chandler, expross the opinion that England can even bo per- 1 suaded to take the iulatory steps towaid that ond. No time is set fer Senator Wolcott's return, but it is known that ho will not come back boforo this ses sion of congress closes, as it is on the program for this congress to authorize the president to appoint delegates to an intorntttionr.1 mouotary confeiunce. iv.

In the opinion ef some of the shrewdest politicians, the effect of his repot t may determine tho control of the sonate far years to como. It is well known in political circles that it was only the declaration of the St. Louis platform, pledging tho republican party te make an energetio effort to sccute interna tional bimetallism, that kept eight or ten senators who aie silver men them selves, and who represent silver con stituencies from fvllowiug the example set by Senator Teller and the other senators who bolted the St. Louis con vention. If Senator Wolcott brings back oven a partially favorable report, these sonators are expected to bo sat isfied to remain as they are, but sup pose ho repoits international bimetall ism to bo an impossibility under exist ing circumstances? Then what will they do? Should they Join the bolters, the republicans would be in a decided minority in the senato for a long time. A number of silver sonators have agreed that every nomination of a gold man to succeed a removed silver man sent to tho senato shall be held up, and as the republicans have a direct in terest in seeing this agreement carried out, it can bo put down as reasonably certain that a number of men now drawing ofllclal salaries, by reason of having been uominated during the congressional recess, will cease to do so en the 3rd of March, because of the failuro of tho sonato to confirm their nomination, What congress will do about Ouba is atill to bo soon, but tho administration has left nobody iu doubt about its posi tion.

This isn't calcu lated to seethe the feeling of (befriends of Cuba iu congress who have all along been of the opiiion that this govern ment was unnecessarily active in its efforts to prevent fllllbusteiing; nor is it calculated to help those who have been working hard during this recess to bring the most fiery senators around to a conservative view of the Cuban ques tion. On the contrary, it is calculated to cause peoplo to attach more impor tance to rumors cabled from Spain about Prosideut Cleveland having promised his assistance to Spain, etc. Of course everybody knows that this government is bound by international law to uso all proper precaution to prevent the departure of tillibustering expeditious, but many believe that it has been eutiroly too vlgilent in that respect.

The attach- ?PJ merit makes the fuel self-feeding and is air-tight. The down draft is also ap- fCfiS plied, and it burns the smoke and gases before they leave the fire-box. h Seventy-five per cent of the strength of the fuel ordinarily escapes in the j( ; smoke. By this method of burning, the tars, pitches and carbons which are con- jg2 tained in the smoke are utilized. It also avoids the gas, smoke and soot which jgf; is created by the ordinary method of burning coal. $ It gives a larger heating surface and avoids the necessity of making in- g2 tense fires to get the desired temperature.
