ANOTHER INVENTION.

News from Paris in regard to the in
vcntion Of machine for writing spoken
words will carry disniay to the hearts OF
students who have burned the midnight
oil in the acquisition of the art of short
hand writing. The Photographic writers
will look OH Huppinger's machine as an
innovation, but reporters who never
learned the art will bless their ignorance
and the lack Of industry which kept
them from learning it. The word.writ-
ing instrument is described as being
about the size Of mans hand, and OPP
crates by being placed in connection
with the vocal organs, the little machine
recording their movements upon band
OF paper in dots and dashcs SINH
lar to the telegraphic alphabet. Hereaf-
ter the reporter. instead OF straining his
ears and fingers in the desperate efforts
to keep up with a rapid speaker, will
merely attach one Of these instruments
to his own lips and repeat the words Of
his orators inwardly. The Zip lam

the movements Of the organs Of speech,
can be written out afterward at leisure,
