AN INVENTION THAT PROMISES TO SUPERSEDE ‘THEM. The Indianapolis News says: Edwin Byrkit, of this city, has recently made and patented an invention so wholly original and unlike any- thing applied to the same purpose, and ¢o likely to work a revolution in an important part of the business of house buliding that it deserves no- tice. Everybody knows that the old split oak lath, and the later sawed pine lath, not only owed pla ack in the corners of walls and ceiling ceummlated heaps of wet mortar, between the lathing and the wall, ft had fallen throush the spaces of the and this wet, muck would frequently Warp the “washboards” nailed on the freshly- plastered wall, Mr. Byrkit’s invention dis- ases With laths altogether, does away with irreguiar and springy surlace that is so hard to Inake the “frst coat” stick to, and al- lows no possibility of the plaster cracking in drying. Itis a sort of ceiling of plank, tongued and grooved like a floor, each plank channeled to prevent If from warping, and the inner surfiee plowed half or thre quarters of an f t intervals of an inch or two, the profes aking the plice of a lath, and doing its s T more effectu- ally by being wider at the surface than at the bottom, and extebing the plaster on the projecting edges, while the soldid portion of the plank keeps the mortar in place and prevent its being forced through and lost in the hollow of the wall, asin the old way. Less mortar is ded for any room thus ceiled, and the solid nk backing of the plaster secures it against cracking, while the T-shaped tongues hold it firmly against any disturbance that would loosen it. ‘The plastering, in fact, isasolid mass, filling certain vacant spaces in a solld plank wall. The Invention has been tried within a h or two, and found to work as perfect! anticipated. As It costs less, or no more than lathing work, the probability 4s that it will come into use speedily. Oe ee ‘The Weapon With Which © was Slain. From the London Telegraph. The Hadendowa spear is from six to seven tiong. ‘The handle is of a piece of hard mi- 2 or acacia, thinner than a broom handle. There is a long socket attached to the blade, into which the wood is driven and fastened. At the reverse end there is commonly a piece of twisted iron or telegraph wire, which serves the double purpose of weighting the handle, so as to terbalance the blade, and to prevent the n being puiled from the grasp.

Resolutions of sympathy, well meant, are addressed to such 2 woman not by her hame, but as “his widow.” The will is published with the announcement that so much is left to the “widow.” Al this is the re- sult of a custom begun when a wife was only an appendage, with no legal existence. ‘The wrong | that isin ‘this would” appear if’ resolutions oF sympathy were addressed to a bereaved bus- as to“her widower,” and if the will told the amount left to the “widower.” The term involves a sort of diminuendo, which would be heard at once in the case of a man, and it would never be offered him.
