A Mechanical Idea. | It is suggested in Modern FEleetrics | and Mechanics that by forming a| plece of steel into the shape of a small chisel and fitting it into the needle- | bar of a discarded sewing machine | whose guide and throat plate are filed | to fit the cutting tool, a valuable ma- | chine for cutting light sheet metal, | making stencils, etc, can be made.

The Household Bulletin Building, 74 Franklin Street THAMES SQUARE GARAGE BUILDING 0,000 NORTH WINDHAM CONCERN LOCATED IN NEW FACTORY L. M. Hartson Co. Has Plant in Full Operation—Fireproof Structure. The L. M. Hartson Co. of North Windham which for several months after their disastrous fire of Sept. 14, 1913, did business in the building now used as a storehouse, is now installed in their new fireproof quarters, and busily engaged in the work of turning out silk mill suppiies. Their new building is approximately 125 by 36 feet, including a Small wing sed as the drying reom. It is built of concrete, with brick partitions and cement stairways There is no wood in the building itself, save the doors and window frames, so that if another fire should ever get a start there, it could be confined to one room without any difficulty. The mill is well lighted and spacious, although even better light will be obtained when the ceillngs are dry enough to admit of painting. White will be the color used. The ground floor contains the fur- nace room, drying room, engine room, and a large room for manufacturing. The heat supplied is nearly all obtained by the us of waste products in the fur- nace, thus reducing fuel cost by a large percent. In the engine room is the same engine which was in the old mill, refurbished and in as good con- | dition as before the fire. There is also a small _generator, which will furnish the artificial light used in the plant. The method used in drying the wood used in the plant is interesting. The air is drawn by means of a pump, and returns to the dry-room at about the temperature of one hundred degrees. Here the wood is kept until in per- | fect condition for use. The main part of the ground floor used wholly for wood working. | Here the Vermont plans are sawed to their respective sizes, and here they {are fashioned into Dbobbins and the many other things which the plant produces. Over twenty sizes of bob- bins alone are made in the mill, there being four four varieties, solid hol- low. paper-tipped and iron-tipped. The second fioor is devoted chiefly to wire and metal work, although it | is not safe to assert what use is made |of the machines from one visit, so | many different products are turned out by the concern. Semething every | day may be manufactured, and all the company’s products are made from the raw material in their own mill, It can readily b8 seen that work of this changeable nature requires exper- fenced and skilled mechanics, as a man may work for a wi or two on one d then be asked to produce an different article, The office of the company is also up- on the second floor, well lighted and erranged for the work in hand. Then here is also a storeroom where are to ho found edds and ends picked up after the fire, These are sorted over as oceasion demands, and practieally ev- ery day something which ean be used in the preduction ef seme one of the artieles turned out by the mill. Te | make every thing count and wasie thing that ean be used is the policy | 6f the company. | That the Hartson mill has been rebuilt and is running again is & cause for rejoicing in North Windham, which has suffered two severe fire losses in six months. The mill employs from thirty to thirty-five hands, and a good { class of labar. INDUSTRIAL BUILDING IN CONNECTICUT. and Expansions Under and Contemplation.

The Changing Age, Girls and boys from 14 to 19 years of age undergo physical changes which tax their strength to the utmost and the strain is always apparent from | -cheeks, colorless lips, and tired | es—sometimes eruptions of the skin snd the utter lack of the ambition and animation with which their younger years were filled. ! Budding into womanhood and man- hood, with the duties of school or business, | demands concentrated nourishment which is readily convertible into red blood | corpuscles, energy and strength, and the | very best thing for this changing age is | the medical nutriment in Scott’s Emul- | sion—it possesses the rare blood-making | properties of cod liver ol in a predi- | gested form; hypophosphites for the | nervous system, with the healing, sooth- | ing qualities of pure glycerine. | ts nourishing force promotes assimila- | tion, yields direct returns in abundaant, | red bload, fills bollow cheeks, tones the | erves, makes all good food do good, | and dees it in a natural easy maunor. ¥he sustaining nourishment in Scott" Rmulsion is so belpful to this changing | age that it should never be neglected— every druggist has it. | 3113 Scott & Bowne, Bloomfield.
