HANDCUFFS
Various Devices That Have Been Used
In Fettering Prisoners
In Vergil Is to be found the first re
corded instance of the use of litnut
cuffs for the poet tells us that Proteus
was thus fettered and rendered pow
erless by Arlsiaeus who npparontlv
knew that even the gods tlieuisclu s
were not proof against this form of
persuasion
In the fourth century B C an army
of victorious Greeks found several
chariots full of handcuffs among the
biggigeof the defeated Carthaginians
and it Is highly probable that the an
cient Egyptians had some contrivatu e
of the kind The word is derived
from I he Anglo Saxon
whence comes evidently
term copper
In earliest Saxon days
liamlcou
the slang
hamlcops
were used for nobles and foot cops
for kings lint in the fourteenth and
fifteenth centuries the word is sup
planted by the terms shack bolt and
swivel manacle and the instruments
were as cumbersome as the names by
uhii h they were known
Lp to tlie middle of the last century
there were two kinds of handcuff In
general One known as the llexi
ble was very like that which is
still used the other kind called the
figure eight was used to restrain
violent prisoners It was so fashioned
that the captive could not move his
hands and was universally dreaded
for the pain caused by a limb immov
ably confined is almost unbearable
A simple but powerful device for se
curing prisoners was the twister
now aboli hed owing to the injuries
it indicted It consisted of a chain
with handles at each end The chain
was put around the wrists ami i lit
handles were brought together and
twisted until a firm grip was obtained
The least struggle on the part of the
captive aid the chains bit deep into
his wrists Of the same nature but
made of wire is la ligote while in
an emergency whipcord has proved
perfectly sa t isfactory
The handcuff used in some parts of
eastern Europe is most primitive It
consists of a V shaped piece of metal
in which the wrists are inserted the
open ends being then drawn together
by means of a cross hook which must
be kept taut the whole time Th
most handy form of cuff which is in
general use at present comes Irom
America It is lighter and much less
clumsy than the old fiexible
It is no easy matter to clap the
bracelets on a person who is strug
gling violently Inventors should turn
their attention to the subject for mud
remains to be done before the lighting
prisoner can be quickly and strongly
secured without harm to himself or

The Artist and His Work
The ureat artists like the great he
roes have always done whatever came
to hand Michelangelo grumbled and
said he was a sculptor when Julius
II set him to paint but he paint
ed the roof of the Sistine chapei
Shakespeare chafed at the popularity
of the fool in the drama of his time
and then produced the fool in Lear
If either of them had waited for per
fect conditions and an inspimtion un
tnimmeled by circumstances lie would
iave done nothing They produced
masterpieces because they made the
best of things as they were And this
is the business of the artist in life

By the use of electro magnetic action
the voice of a speaker is carried along
as many wires as desired and for any

TRY OUT MONEY LAUNDRY
Uncle Sams Bills Scrubbed by Ma
chine at Washington
Uncle Sams money laundry is get
ting a tryout in the United States bu
reau of engraving and printing Di
rector J D Ralph is on the job watch
ing with interest the renovator of dir
ty bills do its duty The machine on
trial is one invented by Frank B
Churchill
The machine takes bills and spreads
them on a screen This screen is re
volved rapidly through a solution of
soap and water which takes off the
grime The next disk takes them
through a strong solution of a disin
fectant which removes the germs A
third disk removes the traces of the
other two waters and sends the bill
out on to a plat ready for the plater
The plater is the same roller used to
press new money It is this machine
that gives new money its crispness
After the washed out bills are run
through the plater they are com
paratively new the ink colors having
been brought out again and the dirt
removed
It is Mr Ralphs idea that the life
of a banknote will be extended about
GO per cent by the new method The
machine which he wants will cost be
tween S00 and S1000 It will save
from 300000 to 1000000 annually
