and clean: and lastly the bow receives a fin-
ishing stroke under a heavy drop. The key
is now virtually finished, except that it is 3
blank : and when the number, size. form and
poeit'ton of the groves or wards have been
determined upon. these are cut in the bit with
a steel burr, and the key thus receives an in-
l dividmlity of its own. and becomes con—
nected with its “affinity” by the bonds of
wedlock. This description applies, nebefare
