Every week some enterprising In ventor brings out a new style monkey wrench, but with ail the various designs EASILY ADJUSTED. submitted few are superior or aa good aa the wrench of everyday use. Natur ally a novelty wrench. Ilka tbe one shown In. the Illustration, laamediately attracts attention. The patentee la a resident of Indian Territory. Ia this wrench tha stationary jaw, the handle aad tha ratchet teeth are no different from the usual type, but the movable jaw Is adjusted In a manner quite out of tbe ordinary. Pivoted on the mov able Jaw ia a small lever. Extending from the lever la a catch which regis ters with the ratchet teeth. To adjuat the Jawa the lever la moved away from the handle far enough to bring the catch out of locking position. The mov able Jaw ia then free to move in either direction. After determining the sis of the nut the lever ia sprung Into its closed position. It will be obvious that tha adjustment le very quickly and readily accomplished. UNIQUE ROLLER SKATES Wearer Capable of Traveling at a Remarkable Speed. At the present time roller skating Is receiving more attention than for many years. A revival of the sport aeems Im minent, the older admirers being aa en thusiastic aa the younger recruits. Probably the decline fit the sport can be attributed to the fact that at the time roller skating waa popular every where no attempt waa made to Improve upon the stereotyped style of roller skate. At this late day, with good prospects of a boom In the sport, a Ne braska inventor brings forth a design which promleee a revolution In the con struction of roller skates. The accom panying illustration gives a good Idea of Its form. Two wheels, not rollers. LARGE WHEELS ASSURE SPEED. are used, the wheele being half a dosen timee aa large ue the old-fashioned rollere. Connecting tbe two wheels In the renter le an sale about the width of the foot. Bueutnded upon the axle le a plata which supports the shoe In the usual way. It Is claimed that wear era of thane skatee can Iravel at a re markable epeed. Cushion tlrea are placed on the wheels, requiring only a minimum of effort to gt over the ground.
