Hands Of Steel
Meaforclth man with steel hands,
Andrew A. Gawley, has again signed
up with She Conklin Shows. rattled
for the manuttattire and use of art-
tifirdial hands, leer. Gawley challenges
the world to show a better substitute
for hie hands, as many remark that
he three more with them than they
can do with their flesh hands. A few
of the things accomplished might be
of interest to our readers. A short
.time ago Mr. Gawley bought a tiu
af candied honey 1 Motes by % inch
in diameter, and wished to bring it
back to liquid forte. He placed the
can on top of a tea kettle, and it
appeared oat of sight into the hot
water. Catching it by the narrow
flange he 'tithed it to safety. He lres
been known, to raise from the Rem,
with one hand a box a solder labell-
ed 396 pounds. He can darn a sock,
which appears like knitting, thread
a needle and sew use band -spike,
fork or shovel, He has five powerful
grips on each hand, and the sense of
-touch of pressure on a piece of glass-
ware is surprisingly delicate and ac-
curate. He can toes a stick up in the
air, turn it and catch it again in mid-
air. These feats are all acoomplishel
with the several grips available nu
his artificial lirrbbs.
