Fourstrands, each composed of eight yarn strands. The tension of the finished rope and its winding on by the reel ata uniform rate with the twisting speed of the machine is a mostimportant feature ; and is operated by means of two grooved drumsplaced tandem, over which the rope is wound twice to give it a fric-tional pull. The drums are rotated by a fore and aft shaft and gear-ing from the main driving shaft. The reel is revolved by a frictionbelt, which allows for varying its speed for equal tension of the ropeas the reel fills up. TEXTILE AND MANUFACTURING DEVICES, ETC. 317. 821. FLOCKING MACHINE. For distributing flock evenly on aprepared surface of cloth or paper. The cloth or paper is passed onan endless web with its varnishedor glued side uppermost, the varnishor glue being applied by an elasticroller fed from a hopper not flock is evenly fed to the sur-^ face of the cloth or paper by therevolving brush in the hopper atthe top of the machine. 822. ELECTRIC CLOTH CUTTER. A revolving sharp-edgedblade driven by a motor in the head frame on an arm or tripod. It is 14 inches in height and weighs 35 is capable of cutting any thickness ofcloth up to 3^ inches and any width orlength. A feature of the cutter is the factthat it is perfectly portable, so that goodson any of the cutting-room tables can becut with it. This is a valuable feature, asit obviates the folding of the goods andthe carrying to the machine. In order to keep a perfect cutting edge,grinders are attached and can be brought into contact with the knife in an instant. Wolf El
