From rem0iest historic periods the agency OF
signals has played an important part in all military
operations. Experience long ago demonstrated
their utility and necessity in the movement or armies
over any large region OF country ana in their
strategic evOluti0ns on the narrower scene OF The
battle field. But c0ntrivance 90 useful mas been
yariousy applied and made as subsidiary to the arts
OF peace as to the science OF war. 1t Is safe to say
that 10 mans battle with the elements-the Storm

ever done 10 human warfare The red nag which,
when seen nying over the Roman c0nsul's tent,
was the ancient signal for action, IL capable OF
another and more benian once, to which modern
science has assigned It.
With cautious, yet rapid progress, the Signal Ser
vice Of the United States. to whom year ago was
entrusted the organization OF o weather teearaphc

the meteorolOgic inform alton necessary to enable

American VINO reads the newspapers has become
familiar. and. consequently, to make an
intelligent use OF the cautionary signal

point threatened by dangerous winds. The science
OF meteorology or meteorcs has always struggled
under the great disadvantage OF having the whole
world to explore and being obliged to content Itself
with detached and fragmentary observations OF the

published by the Presby ytefian Magazine
Company, Cincinnati, at - 90 year
with choice Of a 81 90 book nom their
catalogue. The articles in this are well
gotten up, and are very Interesting,
more so than the generality of religious
papers, from the fact that they are
written in lively and genial style
1t is devoted to Prose, Poetry, Bible
Studies, Moral Stories, Geographic and
Historical, '"The scattering and the
Gathering. :" "The Mantle of Elijah"
and "The Irish Scots" are very enter
tanning and instructive. The magazine
is undoubtedly worth all that is asked
for it. When bound at the end of the
year it will form a beautiful and good
book, worth / great deal more than 1t
cost.
Harper's Monttly.-It seems almost
useless to speak of the merits of this
favorite magazine. 1t has been so long
before the people, and no one has ever
spoken against it. We were asked,
not long sine "why Harper's are so
successful with all their publications. I"
We answered because, whatever they
undertake is done so well that none
can take exception to it. This is un-
doubtedly the most popular magazine
in America. 1t is large well printed,
and in point of illustration has no equal.
1t suits all classes, save the trash eaters.
The volumn for the present year is one
of unusual interest. We have not
space to give the table of contents.-
The American Baron, by DeMille, q
profusely illustrated serial is now going
through il. This adds greatly to its
interest. Published by Harper Bro,
n. Y. 81 90 per year.
Hdype7's Bdzdr.-This excellent
fashion paper contains, besides pictures,
patterns, etc., a variety of matter OF
especial interest to the family, articles
on health, dress and housekeeping in
all its branches. No doubt hut it Is to
day making many homes happier than
they were before the women began
reading 1t. It's illustrations are fine, its
reading matter well selected-in short
it's just what might be expected that
Harper's would furnish, the best. 81
Hdrper's Weekly.-The Weekly and
Bazdr, are not generally classed with
Magazines but the facts are, they are
much better than many publications
called such. The Weekly Is the best
illustrated paper in America. Itsessays
on political subjects are considered by
all parties to be sound. Indeed we
don't known what more to say about
it, unless to advise all to see it Their

TAXING NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Wales,
of Stark county, is author of a bill
before the Legislature, the object of
which Is to tax railroads according to
their real value, as compared to other
property. Auditors and Commission
ers of counties, through which railroads
pass, are made the Board of Appraisers,
and companies are required to give
their capital stock and its par value
the average cash value OF the same dur
ing the preceding quarter: the same, az
so, with bonds, all to be verified under
oath. All companies refusing to COM
ply with the law shall be appraised at
the uniform rate of sl00, 900 per mile.
Petitions are being largely circulated
throughout the State, asking for the
passage of the bill.
