The fun Of the Ching.
RETROSPECTIVE.
BI EuoKSE y. WAR;.

ThrUugh the days 50 mild znd mellow,
While the leaves were growing yellow,
We did beIl0w-lOudly below
For platform fun Of isms;
Many cthers did like we did,
But cur efforts were undecided,
For the people said they needed
More Of sense and less Of schisms.
Long we shouted-and We spoutei.
Then we spouted, and we shonted-
But the people jeered and fouted
At the manufactured shams
Very family they hurahed us,
Little cared they to applaud US.
And at last they turned and chawed US.
While our singers sang their Psalms
Female suffrage. Prohibition.
We are now in 4 position
To demand q new edition
A revision. as Of yOre:
And the great ST. John, the martyr

To the shades where many q smarter-
Smarter man has gone before.
You may talk about the niger;
Why! the smallest one il bigger,
And viii cut finer figure,
In the time that's coming on,
Than the Saint 20 nice and hobby,
He who packed the State House lobby
In the interests Of his hobby
The Immaculate St John.

They're on top. and We are under;

To their desks, a. moral teachers:
Governments were made for creatures
That are living now on earth;
Not for angels that wear laurels.

Men Of vice ~ well as morals,
Men Of grief A. well as mirth.

On il troubled with strnbismus
You can talk from June till Christmas.
He is still as narTow-sighted;
Add to this poor digestion,
And the world must be refreshed on
Some important moral question,
And instauter must be righted.

But II must and will be done;
And cur short haired female brother
And our long haired other, t'Other

And well make another platform,
Iwhat the darkey calls ''fiat-foru. ,
OF a more improved and pat form
Than the thing We had Of late;
And well have no isms to damn it,
And well have no man TO cram il

Prepare your ballots!" said jamie
Morris, in a magisterial tone of voice.
"Are the boys allowed to vote ?"
1t was rather a critical moment, for
the choice was now to be made be-
tween the two rival candidates for
May Queen-Bell Bristol, dignifed,
and intellectual, with black hair, and
shining eyes, and lips that could curl
in naughty surprise, If she 80 decreed.
And on the other side, Molly Simpson,
with her violet eyes and auburn hair
impulsive, generous, quick-tempersd d,
but waim-hearted Molly. At the mo-
ment, Bell was leaning back In her
chair, as If in proud indifference to
the result of the contest while Molly
appeared excited and restle. IS, her
nervous fingers pulling . rose in pieces,
leaf by leaf, for she had two brothers
and three cousins among the academy
ooys, and it was Charlie Simpson who
had just propounded the question In
regard to their right of suffrage.
jamie Morris who had beep appoint
ed to preside over the meeting, turned
to Bell Bristol with q look of mute
appeal.

stately way, "that when the state leg

NUMBER 48.
The Subdivision of the Electric
Light.

In a letter to the Editor of The Lon
don Times Mr.. w. H. Preece, the we'll
known English electaician, says:
There is a great confusion between the
problem of the subdivision Of the
electric eight" and that of the dlstri-
button of the electric current" They
are two totally different questions,
which are generally mistaken for each
other. If a given current, say that
equivalent to one horse powell, will
give a light, say of 2 900 candles, you
cannot by any known means divide
that light into 20 lamps of 100 candle
erto been done from one-horse power
is to obtain eight lamps of l6-candle
power each. You can, however, dis
tribute the current in any way you
please. If one horse power will give
you one lamp of 2,000-candle power, or
eight lamps of Is candle power, it is
evident that two-horse power will give
you two lamps OF 2,0J0-candle power
and Is small lamps three horse kower
three lamps of 1000 candle power or
"a small ones, and so on, directly by
multiplication and distribution. Mr..
Brush has shown how to multiply his
lamps, and Mr.. Edison has shown
how to distribute his currents and
multiply his lights but no one has as
yet attempted to solve the question of
the subdivision of the electric light.
The largest machine yet made, hat of
Edison, will maintain 1000 incandes-
cent lamps giving 16.candle power
each, or a total light of 1872, 600 candles,
with an expenditure of 150-horse
power. Such a power applied directly
to the production oflight ought TO give
a light of many million candles.
