When I lived in Chicago a qaeer chap
invented a .cheap way to make files. A
bit of hot steel went into his machine
and the file was made at a single blow,
and fell into a tank of strong mineral
water to cchiL Then a bare armed work
man tlirust in his hand and felt Ground
and tirought it up for inspection The
files thus made were a little imperfect,
but were good ones, and be explained
that the machiae was a small experi
mental one and could not. of course, do
perfect work as a large and powerful
machine would. Capitalists went around
and examined the machine and saw him
heat the steel in a Imnd forge and put it
in the machine, and saw tlie red hot file
come out and drop into the water, and
they tried the file with their own hands
on .iron which they had .brought from
home and found it excellent. The only
secret was the chemical-water into which
the files dropped, and which gave them
edge. A company was formed and
money was paid in freely to enable the
inventor to make a set of large machines. "
and when thatraa done he disappeared.
It was a fraud. - He had bought good
files and defaced them a little, and
6tocked his tank with them. His ma
chine stamped the bit of steel into file
shape, and it dropped into the water
with the. files, and his workman, who
was in collusion, felt around and brought
up a file instead of the steeL Cor. Port

AX -BOOST FROM THE TRAIX
When we readied SnutliviIIe it
snowing hard: there w'us uii "bus to take
us to the Itotel. so we had to walk The
whole youthful populace seemed to be at
the train.
"Here they come," yelled a gawky,
overgrown boy as we came out of the
station.
They followed lis every step of the way
to the hotel. Two little girls wre altead
of us. and they koj turning around and
walking backwards at the imminent risk
of their necks, so as not to lose sight of
us for an instant. At first 1 felt ratlier
flattered, thinking that this was their
way of paying tribute to genius: but
from the nature of their remarks 1 soon
learned that I was greatly mistaken, If
there is anything in the world that peo
ple in country towns kaik down upon
and despise it is "kIkiw folks."
When we arrived at the hotel we found
it a conifortahlf looking wooden build
ing. "Tliis Icoks quite homelike and
nice." I said. "1 wish 1 had your liope
ful dteptKitinn." raid the comedian
gloomily. We went up to the parlorand
waited to be Hhown to our rooms. After
we had been there for some time a shock
headed boy appeared with our keys. My
room was bare and comfortless, there
was a sheet iron stove in the corner, but
there was no fire in it. I called the boy's
attention to this fact, and he said he
would build a fire "in a jiffy." He west
away, but soon came back again, -ringing
a basket of wood. He began to build
the fire. Just as lie had cleared the ashes
oat of the stove some one called "Bell,
boy," and he disappeared. 1 began to
think be liad forgotten all about me,
when be came back and began again.
As he was going to light the fire some
one shouted "Porter." he got up and
went out. 1 waited for him for some
time, then I went into the hall and called
"Bell boy" as loud as 1 could. He came
running up the halL "I want my fire
built." 1 said. "Wall. I cant wait on
more'n forty at once, can I?" he said.
"Why don't some 4f the other bell boys
come tip?" "There ain't none," he. said.
'Tm the only porter and hell boy and
waiter and clerk there is." At last my
fire was built and I lay down.tore-t.
I had been traveling all night and part
of the day, and I waa tired and sleepy.
I soon dosed off. Just as I was getting
into a nice nap I was awakened by aloud
shriek. I started up! What was it? I
soon found out. A party of "young
folks" from the neighboring farms had
come down to "see the show." They
drove into town in sleighs, and as they
wanted a "real good time" they came
early in the afternoon so ae to take sup
per at the bote! and go to the "opery
boom" afterward.

They had assembled in the parlor, and
were "soothing tlieir savage breasts
with music. They played on the wheezy
old aielodeon and sung "White Wings"
and "Stick to Your Mother, Tom."

every esse the work failed of beicg ef

sLucture. That -is the great fault with
BBBch of the plumbing done in this city
for about six years prior to 1882. and
even with many of the contrivances now
offered for sale hi the market.
Theoretically there is no reason why
the reform instituted about IS7C should
have resulted in a partial failure. The
principles on which inventors and engi
neers went to work at the tun: were
doubtless, right, barring only that the
lack of simplicity necessitated f request
repairs and gave freer scope to defective
workmanship. The efforts toward im
provement were honest enough, though
the means were ill advised.

In 1883 a reactionary movement wm
instituted in the interest of simplicity of
structure and workmanship, and that
year marks the beginning of what may
be termed the best era of plurobisg and
house drainage. Involved, complex
work, though in mcie degree still prac
ticed, is practically out of date. The
main purpose now in view is to eliminate
every unnecessary angle, to simplify
every trap or combination cf traps, to
Bake all fixtures as little complicated as
possible, to use material en account of
its merits and not from traditional no
tions as to its fitness in a word, to put
the matter on a scientific basis. Tm? re

diroctioB, aad the results wilt doubtless
stand the teat of actnal use.

progress is custom. Fallacies are daily
perpetuated. It b with house building,
sswerage. ventilation sad the like as it fs
wftb most businesses. People follow in
rats from mere habit. A good sug-
is made or device invented and
irrespective of actual merits it is too
thrust aside tn deference to the old
way of doing things.

People are naturally; more or leas

for instance, have no place in sanitary
work. Cities are growing inordinately
ia comparison with rural districts. Thus
ia every metropolitan city life becomes
more and more essentially artificial, and
no adequate provision is made to neu
tralise this growing artificiality in re
spect to its influence on health. Thou
