For themost part they are clever adaptations of well-knownprinciples or ideas to a special purpose that any mechanicskilled in the art, to use a patent litigation phrase,might design. They are usually open to the world to doing such work as boring and facing driving boxes,turning and boring bushings, rod brasses and the like. There is a base 1. which, in the size of chuck hereshown, has a total length ?>5~s in. It is made of castiron and is provided with four slotted lugs A by whichit is to be bolted to the table. These lugs and their slotsradiate from the center of the chuck by which it can bereadily adjusted so that its center coincides with that ofthe machine upon which it is to be used.

Occasionally, however, a design ofsuch novelty is brought out that it warrants an entry intothe patent office and a place upon the market. Such adevice is this universal chuck that is here illustrated. Itwas designed in the 17th street shops of the Chesapeake& Ohio Ry. at Richmond. Virginia, and is now beingmanufactured by the Commonwealth Supply Co. of thesame place. It is intended primarily for use on boring machines for bottom surfaces and at the ends. It is also fitted witha dovetail groove from end to end to take the maincarriages 2. These are also of cast iron and are madewith a dovetail to fit into the groove of the base. Thesedownward projections of the dovetails are cut with aright and left hand thread respectively to take the cor-responding threads of-the screw. The mai
