Tears.

Crocodile tears are things of ancient
history, and tears produced with the
aid of onions are equally well known,
but it has remained for modern science
to find way to produce onion tears
without betraying the presence of the
aggressive onion itself. In fact, the
aggressive onion need not be present at
all. An essential oil is extracted from
it which has all the tear-compelling

EXPERIMENTS with the Phelps meth
cd of telegraphing to and from trains
in motion continue to be made with
satisfactory sucC ess; but Mr.. Edison
has method which dispenses with the
insulated line between the rails. Ac-
cording to the report, Mr. Edison says
"By putting up this tinfoil-covered
board lengthwise on the top of each car
l can catch message from the wire
strung on poles thirty-five feet off, and
can fling an answer back to the wires
of any sort. The secret of it is in the
machine for transmitting. When 1 was
investigating what called the 'etherlc
force few years ago, accidentally
discovered certain curious properties
of static electricity. These L have now
applied. The process is very inexpen-
sive, as three men could equip road
300 miles long for $1,000 in three or
four days. 1t seems certain that its
adoption will be general, so that every
train will be run from headquarters,
and every passenger will be accessible
to his friends"
