strength and proportions.

A good Illustration of the obJecU and operation of a lathe la found In a shop wbere wooden belnsters are manufactured. A stick of wood, three or four Inches square and two or three feet long, Is adjusted In a borixoutal position. with Its ends firmly held by metal disks, which are Intended to revolve rapidly. Tbe stick being tbtn set la rotation, a workman applies to It tbe edge of n chisel or other cutting tool, which rests on a fixed sop port, but may be shifted from one end of the stick to the other. The result of this treatment Is to make the stick perfectly round In a very abort time. Its dlameler at different points may be varied. If this Is desirable, ao that In one place there Is a graceful bulge and In another a slender taper. I-atbcs are also built for working mstal. aad the cutter le usually shifted automatically by a screw motion, ao that th# lock of uniformity which results from hand work Is eliminated and absolute adher-
