defective utterance, his success as q

iraculously removed, and Bernardine

eainst thu civil strife, licentiousness, and
Fperstitions of his time, and by his burn

hiraculous conversions, and reformed the

BRICK PoMERoY is mad. He was q
actor in the Convention at
Toledo last month, which inaugura-
ted the National party intended as a
consolidation Of the Greenbackers,
the Workingmen and all other side
parties, outside the Republican and
Democratic parties. But Brick came
to grief at the convention; he was
declared a rotten mackerel, and when
he would be authorized to charter
National Clubs, he was refused the
authority to do SO, and Pomeroy was
shuffied into the ranks. The other
fellows who arrogated to themselves
some reputation, did not want Brick.
company-they would have all thu
loaves and fishes that this net might
catch, and Pomeroy should have
none. Therefore he was mad and
who could blame him?
Bricks reputation is little odor.
GUS, but this qualification is not a
very scarce commodity among the lea.
ders of that convention, and they
ought not to be too particular.
Brick,according to the report made,
organized 1921 clubs before the con-
yention met, and thought he ought
to have right in the Toledo pool.
Now he says, speaking Of the clubs

The Popular Science Monthly for
April says of the Edison monograph :
Gin certain sense this acoustical
marvel of the century is as simple as
q grindstone, but in a scientific point
of view there are subtitle questions
about it that only trained physicists
can appreciate" Alfred M. Mayer,
in a descriptive article, says, in COM
pairing the talking machine invented
by Professor Faber, of Vienna, with
Edison's talking machine: "Faber
solved the problem by reproducing
the mechanical causes of the vibra-
tons making voice and speech; Edi-
son solved it by obtaining the mechan-
ical effects of these vibrations. Fa-
Der reproduced the movements of our
vocal organs; Edison reproduced the
motions which the drum-skin of the
ear has when this organ is acted on
by the vibrations caused by the move
ments of the vocal organs"
The wonders multiply upon us in
this day. The telephone set people
wild by the transmission of sound at
long distances, and now machine is
invented-called the phonograph--
which actually talks.

timber will not sink, but are driven
hither and thither as the wind and

ONE of the most conclusive evil
dences of the alarming depression
prevailing throughout Ireland. is to
be found in the decrease of deposits
in savings banks. From official
returns it appears that the balances
held on the last day of December,
1877, by Irish banks, were over three
millions sterling less than on the cor
responding day of the year 1876
This alarming falling off in deposits
cannot be due to higher inducements
for the investment of capital, for we
find that the rate of interest allowed
by the banks was higher in the past
than in the previous year, being rails.
ed from one to two per cent. While
this enormous decline is very signifi.
cant, the concurrent increase in the
number of persons relieved out of the
poor rate fund is equally ominouf
and alarming-amounting to nearly
5000, or number almost equal to
the increase during the trying winter
and hard times of 1923.
