By passing the locking boltto the inner extremity of its groove, the latch in theshaft will be held in its aperture to permit the flywheelto revolve freely in either direction without operatingthe machine. AN IMFBOVED OAS gas stove which can be readily regulated to burn asmall flow as well as a large, full flow of gas is illustratedherewith, and has been patented by Mr. Clarence , of No. 198 Seventeenth Street, Brooklyn, N. cylindrical chamber, having draught openings in itslower portion, is made to fit upon the gas jet tube, andcast with this chamber, as one casting, are hollow arms,with a surrounding flange, and upright pieces rising. AN IMFBOVED FLYWHEEL CLUTCHING automatic loose and fast attachment for sewingmachines, whereby tlie flywheel may be made to re-volve with the shaft in one direction and independentlyof it in the opposite direction, and may be virtually dis-connected therefrom, to turn independently of theshaft in either direction, is illustrated herewith, andhas been patented by Messrs. J. A. Romano and Ern-est A. Ba,rton, of Celaya, Guanajuato, Mexico. Theportion of the driving shaft on which the flywheel ishung has a diametrical aperture, mostly rectangular,but circular at one end, in which is held a latch, shownin Fig. 3, surrounded by a spiral spring. The hub of theflywheel has a horizontal groove on its inner face, andan opening in its outer surface intersecting the groove,a locking bolt being held within the groove and open-ing, a horizontal member of the bolt sliding in thegroove, while the vertical member is adapted to theopening. The lock bolt has, at the extremity of its FOWLEBS SF
