Henceeither weapon can be used without changing the the revolver can be brought into use until all thecartridges have been fired, and then the weapon can beused as a sword or cutlass. Lawn-sprinkler.—Among recent interesting inven-tions is a lawn-sprinkler for which a patent has beengranted to A. Vandervoort, of Belleville, Canada. Thenozzle of the sprinkler is automatically swung througha horizontal orbit and is at the same time slowly movedup and down, through a vertical arc, thereby largelyi
