''The ways Of the milkman are past find
ing out. " said a Brooklyn householder to
o reporter yesterday. II have dealt with
them for about fifty years, and find that
I don't know all their lodges yet.
"What's new nOw?" was asked.
seWeu. it is something | just stumbled
across this morning. You see my next
door neighbor and I used to patronize the
same dealer. But about three months ago
I decided to try another whose driver came
around earlier in the morning. This fell
low came before we were up, so that the
girl had to set out the empty jar the night
before Well, that new man had been
coming for about a week, when we began
to miss our milk supply. Somebody stole
it, of course, but we couldn't find out who
it was. The Lnilkman who had previously
supplied us continued to sell to our neigh
bOr and as he came later than our man
we were forced to buy from him whenever
our regular supply was stolen. Well, we
stood it until yesterday, and then [ decided
that we might as well go back to our old
dealer We did so. This morning | told
the new man that he needn't come any
more, explaining my reasons for letting
him go. Man alive, don't you know who
has been taking the milk?' he asked in
tone of great surprise. No, / replied;
who is it?' why, the old milkman, of
course was his reply; that is an old
game that we all work when we can
Sure enough, he was right, as I found
out upon further investigation But I
liked the fellows enterprise and l am
going to stick to him. New York Trib-

A NV Domestic Te1enhone.

L was invited to be present the other
day at some telephone experiments be-
tween Paris and Brussels with new APP
paratuS known as the 'nicrO-telephOne
push button
What makes this apparatus the most
successful of telephone instruments is,
that it can be made for half crOwn-that
is to say, for not more than the price of
the ordinary push button. At front doors,
in the interior rooms of houses, every
where in short, where the ordinary cleo
trio buttons are used, the telephone but
ton may be introduced. 1t will by this
means be possible to give or receive in
structions, to know who is knocking at
the door, to communicate, in short, by
speaking as well as by ringing. The rail
way companies are making experiments
with this apparatus as a means of com
1nunicatiOn between compartments of
carriages. 1t is being fitted up on trial in
hotels. [ have seen it at work at the door
of a private house where l was replied to
by those within without their having
stirred from their places, and without the
door being opened. Between Paris and
Brussels this instrument, costing half q
crown, worked with admirable precision,
and it was not altogether without an
eerie feeling that l listened to voice with
a slight Belgian accent coming to me from
a distance of more than 200 miles.
''The inventor is Dr. Cornelius Herr.

Legion of Honor, next day described as

there is a bOundless demand for improve
ment in electrical apparatus and in all |
