prevails on the movement of the pen up
and down. The writer can write or
sketch as, rapidly and, as freely as if he
had no telegraphic atta.hment.
At the receiving end there are two
electro magnets fitted with rods set at
right angles to each other, so pivoted as
to give any motion desired to the pen
which they carry at their intersection.
When series of breaks i'll the current is
caused by motion of the sending pen TO
the right the magnet draws the lateral rod
also to the right. Similarly upward motion
is given by the vertical rod. Left-handed
or downward strokes of the sending pen
are reproduced by the receiving pen in
the same manner. Consequently every
motion made on the paper at one end of
the wire is copied with faultless exact
ness at the other end. When the pen is
taken off or a new line is begun an auto
matte device operates with the same re-
suit on the receiving pen.
- The telautograph, as Mr.. Gray calls his
invention, therefore not only insures ac-
curacy, but so exactly copies the sender S
handwriting as to hold him accountable
for what he has written, while ne retains
for his own guidance the original of the
message transmitted. The experiments
made show that there is no difference in
the handwriting at the two ends of the
wire except that which is incident to the
use of stylographic pen at the receiving
end

CHRISTMAS THOUGHTS.

Whenever the Christmas season
Lends lustre and peace to the year,
And the ling long-ling of the bells that ring
Tell only of joy and cheer;
/ hear in the sweet, wild music
These words, and 1 hold them true,
f'The Christ who was born on Christmas morn
Did only what you can do.'
Each soul that has breath and being
Is touched with heavens own fire,
Each living man is part of the plan
To lift the world up higher.
No matter how narrow your limits,
Go forth and make them broad!
You are every one the daughter or SON
Crown Prince or Princess of God.
Have you sinnedP 1t is only an error
Your spirit is pure and white;
1t is truths own ray and will find its way
Back into the path of right.
Have you failed? 1t is only in seeming
The triumph will come at length,
You are born to succed--you will have what need
If you will believe in your strength.
No matter howpoor yopfrecord-.
Christ lives in the heart of you,
And the shadow will roll up and off from your
soul
If you Will but own the true;
For Christ means the spirit of goodness,
And all men are good at the core,
Look searchingly in thro' the coating of sin
And 10! there is Truth to adore!
Believe in yourself and your motives,
Believe In your strength and your worth,
Believe you were sent from God IS fair armament
To aid and enoble the earth.
Believe in the Savior within YOU
Know Christ and your spirit are one,
Stand forth defed by your own noble pride,
And whatever you ask shall be done.

Elisha Gray's Invention for Sending Fac Simile
Letters by Wire.

lSlteTs Dg wire.
New York Herald
Electricity is the good genius of this
country. Those who know most about it
say that what we have done with it in the
past is but tri1e compared with what
we may hope to do with it in the future
There are people who expect some day to
be able to call distant friend by wire g,
see his image i'll Il mirror hear his voice
and, if desired, get his exact signature to
subscription paper or check.
These things may all come. At present
we get along with an intermittent and
exasperating repetition of the voice over
the wire, having no means of determin-
ing the identity of orr mterlocutor, no
certainty of getting his words accurately
and no record of what he says. Cases are
reported where ingenious raScals have Sc
cured considerable sums by cleverly imi-
tating over the telephone the voice of
wealthy business men; i'll other eases or
ders to buy or sell goods or securities have
been repudiated by those who gave them
by telephone, while the simple blunders
caused by faulty telephone transmission
would fill volumes
Elisha Gray, the well-known Illinois
inventor, recently patented n device to
insure accuracy and accountability over
the electric wire. The sender of Il mes
sage can write it out at his desk and an
exact reproduction of the writing will be
made at the other end of the circuit
There have been previous attempts at
transmitting fac-simires CT writing, but
inventions which depedend upon varia-
ton in the intensity of the current or
upon geKoIving cylindstS proved unsatis-
tory.

rent interrupters ut the sslnding end and a
pair of electro npatags lit the receiving
end. The sender uses either pen or pen

an even tension automatically, and each

broken great number of times for a
small movement When it moves to the
left the current is reversed and is similar

ABOUT CHRISTMAS TREES.

The Trade in FRS and Eyergreens for the
Festive Season.
Garden and Forest
The trade in Christmas trees and greens
grows larger year by year. Thirty years
ago a Christmas tree was seldom seen eX-
cept in some home of the richest class,
and the adornment of churches for the
festival season was confined to the
Catholic and Episcopal denominations
But the immense increase of our German
population has pOpularized the Christmas
tree throughout the length aud breadth
of the land, and with the waning of old
Puritan ideas the decoration of churches
of all denominations has become custom
airy.
The extent to which materials for these
purposes are now required is. shown by
the fact that n single1dealer in New En-
gland last year disposed of 10 900 Christ
mas trees, % 900 yards of wreathing
and 500 barrels of evergreen spray. The
smallest trees that are sold bring on the
ground 10 cents piece while the largest
twenty-five to thirty feet in height, ,
brings from 81 to Sc.

MR.. LANGTRY on THE DEFENSIVE
Some of the Reasons Why He Opposes His
Wifes Wish for Divorce.

Some of the Reasons Why He Opposes His
Wife's Wish for a Divorce.
There is no doubt that Mr.. Langtry did
make flying visit to New York a couple
of weeks ago and returned precipitately
again, says Mrs Grundy. He registered
under an incognito at the Ashland, a sec
ond-class hotel on Fourth avenue This
may have been economy and it may have
been Il desire for privacy. Mr.. Langtry
is a smarter man than people give him
credit for. His wife has spent good
sum of money endeavoring TO find case
against him. She has had him watched
and followed by detectives in the hope of
getting something tangible against him .
He has been too much for them, and fret
and worry as she will the Lily cannot get
rid of him.
1t was the rumor that she was doing
something sly that brought him over, for
he is prepared to smash any divorce
granted under the lax laws of some of
the states, and he would then make it
warm for her. lie will Immediately put
in an answer in any suit brought in the
easy states.
People may ask what is his reason for
insisting that woman whom he has not
lived with for WARS shall remain bound
to him. Simply that he attributes the
wreck of his life to her. First, by her
extravaganza when she was. society
woman i'll England she drained
him of every shilling he had
and caused him TO get into debt and neg
lect his profession. And then she did him
worse injuries still by cOuntenancing or
at any rate not contradicting the rumors
that he had been Il too complaisant hus-
band, in which estimation he knows him
self TO be held, even now, by great
many people.
He thinks she owes him PREPARATION for
