FIGURES vs.. LIES.

Tie "tool,'- with view TO mislead the
public, Ly an inferential falsehcod. two weeks
Ago uttered the following:
s.When the new Board came into power the
pripting WIS given to the organ at what we were
told was great reduction from previous prices.
and for months the dear people were week y in
formed by the organ that great saving would
be effected in the printing bills What IS the re-
cult Why simply that the bills for the year
sntlina October ist, 1874, are 81, 1861 20, or an
excess Of SG28 &c over 1873
Now, reader, whether you ARE friendly to
this deserving tool, . and its unhoy raid or
not, we tell you canddly the above extract
comes obout AZ near the truth as anything II
utfers, and to show you how near true it is,
We copy the figures from certified state
ucnt Of the County Clerk showing the cost
Of printing for the last year---ihe year the
HERALD had the contract--and the cost o.
printing for the preceding year, when the mo
nopoly "tool" did the work Our contract
fos doing tte county printing commenced Oh
the first Of November, 1878, and ended OF

wear. Our first bill was allowed at the Feb
.ruary term, 1874, and our last at the No
ve,nber term, 1874. The "tool" says in lh'
above, 'ihe dear people were weekly tolo
by iii, HERALD that great saving would b'
effected in the printing" Then it goes on t'
show that instead of a saving the opposite
was the result. 1t is very clear that some
body has lied TO show who the liar is w

strange they never found ont before that he

"C0MPErEAT AND FAITHFUL"


II is very rich 10 see The tool speak Of
the ex-Hospi Ste ward j. W. Smith, as -
competent aud faithful officer" 1t is true
his competency for handling the poor nnfor-
tunaes Of that institution, in manner that
caused them to dread bis presence, has
never been denied; and ilmt lie was faithful
in his daily visits 10 town, Of from 10 to "a
hours each, none will doubt Besides being
competent and faithful we suppose the tool
low who thus echoes the voices Of his mas
ters is much to be piled He knows noll-
ing Of what he says. lie is here, perfectly
ignorant Of Placer's men aud Pacers wants.
He receives his information from his masters,
and then sits down and writes. Possessing
naturally short memory; is it any wonder
he fails into the gravest Of errors. While he
is dabbIing and laundering at Hospital affairs,
will he be SO kind as to get his masters to
tell .im how it happened that when this
competent and faithful Smith was 5few
ard, there was scarcely ever any showing
in his reports Of money received from pa
tents, in various ways; AMI how il happens
that since The new Steward took charge, the
money received from this source has amount
ed to about 500 per quarter? This Is a
matter OF much interest to the public wlici,
his masters might enlighien him on for The
peoples benefit. The "tool's" figures, show
ing the cos, of running the Hospital under
lie new Board we regard rs encouraging
He makes ont himself that The Hospital h,s
been run cheaper this last year han the year
before, Which, when we consider the fact
that it was about run in the ground when
hey found it; lad to be repaired oa con-
| siderable extent, and relurnished ncarl,

AN APPARATUS for rendering the variations
of the pulse visible is one of the novelties OF
French ingenuity. There is a camera, 10 which,
by means of ock-work. seusitized glass plate
Is pushed iu front of very narrow aperture
exposed to the light, and in this aperture there
is placed glass tube, in which a column OF
mercury may rise or fall as in a thermometer.
Now, by attaching to the wrist rubber tube,
filed with mercury, In connection with the
tube Of the apparatus, the beating of the pulse
is received on this artificial artery, and the pull
satiouS are transmitted TO the recording appa-
ratus. The column in the tube acting as
screen, light eau penetrate the aperture only
where the column is deficient; consequently,
the prepared pate becomes black, uuder the
influence of light, everywhere except at such
places where the column inercepts it.. As the
column rises and falls with each pnlsation OF
the heart, these black ues on the prepared
plate, pushed regularly forward, will be longer
or shorter alternately, and will be successively
photographed as being lines perpendicular to a
column base. The heart thus being made to reg
lister Photographic Representations can be SO
magnifed as to be rendered visible across
large hall, aud the apparatus may be modified
so as to register the variations of respiration
