for the counting-room. lie is continually per-
fectng the phonograph. At It lie works at
Inst seven hours day. He Is also now CT.
p 'rimenting with a new instrument that lie
calls a teleoscopophonc. 1t is a sort Of car
trumpet, which, when applied to the car. cna-
bles one to hear distinctly the ordinary convcr-
sation of man n mile distant. gentleman
who has tested one of these instruments said :
II applied one to my ear and could hear man
talking who was across field nearly a mile
away. heard every word he said
"AfterwRrd he seemed to raise his voice
little, and when ! saw him later he said that
then he had shouted at the top Of his vnicc.
There Is no connecting wire here as IN the tee
phone. Everything depends on the wonderful
properties OF the ear-trumpct, which il con-
structed on radically different principle from
those that have been in use so long. BY this

Beecher on Charity.

In his sermon at Plymouth Church on Sum
d " Henry Ward Beecher used the following
language:
Any method Of charity which destroys Felf-
reliance Is not charitable, but cruel. That
which makes II easy for men to be careless is
destruction. Many men relieve poverty aud
damn the poor. There have been innnmcr-
able efforts which show how dangerous it is to
distribute charity in this way. II is danger
Gus to interfere with the law Of suffering.
Suffering is as good as enjoying, and bctt-r
under certain circumstances. Suffering is not
an evidence of malignity, but Of benevolcncc.
II Is not penalty, but motive-something to
move men. II is Gods schoolmaster. 1t is
dangerous to take of suffering too much in
this world. II an association were formed To
relieve all suffering, 1t would be a premium on
means Of grace now and then. There aro
thousands of men whose conditions would bo
improved if they were to die. At any rato
they couldn't do worse than they are doing IL
they died. To relieve those who want tho
Government to do everything so that they
may h rse the joy of doing nothing, is todo tho
devils work. Make suffering educate men
and then teach them to bear It until they get
out Of 1t.
The social theories that are now being pro-
mulgated are demoralizing and dangerous. IL
is true that there arc many wrongs aud rccd-
less hardships among working men. But rrm-
cdies will be worked out. These difficulties
are not insoluble, although unsovcd. 1t is tho
old struggle than comes up IN every age br-
tween power and weakness. II Is the Condi-
ton of the race ever rywhcre. 1t is right for
men to agitate aud combine; but /; would bc
Fighter for them to improve their manh" ri 50
that Il can't be put Down All the voting in
the world will not relieve men who are not
large men. The true remedy for the suffering
