A patent for a roller skate was lstued In France in 1810, From that time to the year 1863 there were nine patents lssued for roller skates. Three of thete were French, three Eng. lish, and thrce American. In allof them the wheels were set In fixed sockots, and run only in a direction parallel with the length of the skate. There was some variatlon in the size of the wheols, and thelr number varled from two to five, There was an attempt to adapt them to the capabilitles of fco skates by varying the position and size of the wheels, but it was not untll 1863 that any success waa secured In making roller skates with which the skater could make all the mutlons that can be performed on ice skates, In the year 1863 James L Plimpton of New York patented the guldable roller skate. This was a radloal improvement in attaching the runners or rollers to the atock or foot stand of the skate, whereby the rollera or runners are made to turn or cant by the rocking of the stock or foot stand so as to faciliate the tarning of the skate on the ice or floor and admit of the akater’s performing with ease gyrations or revolutions with- out teating unduly the muscles of the foot or ankles. Mr. Plimpton made fm- provements on his own {ovention, which were patented in 1865 and 1866, and since that time there has been no less than 345 patents for various modificatlons of roller skates chiefly in England and America. But the practicsl roller skate of to-day 1s substantially an American Invention. There are thousands of per- sons engaged In their manufacturs, and they have been introduced all over the globe.

People generally try friction, rubbing themselves with snow, or, better atill, with parafline oll. Occaslonally, when one is frozen, and far from help, the part, frozen, if an extremity, will snap off. Last year a man llving about thirty miles from us was told that his ear was frozen; he put up his hana to feel, and the ear dropped off In his hand.

The crew was not full, and Capt, Stuyveeant had command of a divislon on the gun-deck nambering ten pieces. ‘‘The Cumberland,” remarked the captaln, ‘“was a sailing ship, no steam power whateyer. We were at anchor when the Merrimac came at ue. We knew all about her, and had been expect- ing her for days. Ono of her officers was a clas:mate of mine at the naval school, by the way—and I knew that, too. There wasn't & breath of wind when she came toward us, and her course was such that our side guns were of no use whatever, and when she got in range all the guns we could use were the swive! guns on deck—end we might as well have fired popguns, for thelr balls glanced off her {ron plativg like so many hail- stonea.

Before this her balls had had terrible effact, but as she came up for thatside we gave her the best we had. But soon her ram stove us in, and the Cumberland commenced to fill. Every shot came with fatal effact. One shot killed eight men of my divisfon that were standing in line awalting orders, I saw that—and not a minute after a shot took off the head of a master’'s mate and hurled it against Commsnder Selfridge himself! T thought the moment that the ram struck us, that if we couldn’t ship the anchor chain we might drift into shoal water and thus save our wounded, I went forward to drive the pin, but it was lmpessible to elther drive it out or break it. Therc was a foot or water there, and it was red with blood.” *‘Well, how did you eacapa from the ship, anyway, captalnf’ asked the re- porter. ““Tliore comes one of those funny in- cidents which will occur in the most des- perate confliots, and make you laugh in epite of all the blood apd death and agony that may be about you—and that wa3 why 1 waa the man to leave the Cumber- laud,” answered the captaln. ““The ship was sinking fast, and I tried to get to the ) GERM:N ReMED] FOR PAIN. 3, (‘NU RES Rheumatism, Neuralgia, Sciatica, Lumbago, Backac!
