The agony
New System Of Telegraphy.

DR.. ]. Harris Rogers, Of Washing
ton. is responsible for new telegraph
invention. which will be known as
visual synchronism. The discovery
consists of q method by which two
wheels, thousands of miles apart, may
be kept revolving in perfect unison,
and the application consists IN the
ability To print and transmit from one
wheel to another about $50 words a
minute. By means of a small instru-
ment with ten keys a message Is first
perforated on a tape. This tape runs
through a telegraphic instrument, and
the pcrforations permit small steel fin
gers 10 make electrical connections
with an ordinary telegraph wire, which
i'm its turn connects with the receiver
on the other distant wheel, and inilu-
cnces ten magness provided with
curves end strokes, which combine To
form Roman letters III accordance with
the original pcrforations.
The two indicators or wheels which
actually form the visual synchronism
give 800 revolutions a minute, and
each revolution forms q letter. This
gives about $50 words a minute. The
Morse characters have to be inter
prcted, but rs visual synchronomic
messages come cut in Roman letters,
much labor is saved. photographic
biography said Mr. Rogers, invent
ed by the famous electrician, Bake
well, about thirty years ago, and af-
terward improved upon by Father
Secchi, Edison, Gray and Sawyer,
failed in practical applications for
want of the rapid synchronism now
introduced by me. With the aid OF
the new discovery it may now be util-
lied. New York Tribune.

The Original CantiIever Bridge.

a St Louis boy who has been visiting ia
pan writes home about a wonderful bridge
over there He says: THE most unique
bridge in Japan is the monkey bridge that
one sees on the Kofukaido before reaching
the town Of hofu. 1t spans narrow chasn
over roaring stream. and is the first can't
lever bridge IN the world, antedating the
Niagara patented novelty by the trIfie Of a
century or more in years. Whether tho
Niagara engineers ever saw picture Of the
famous monkey bridge, with its bracketed
ends, is the question The condescending
tourist often, on seeing the photographs Of
this bridge, exciaims Why, that's can't

The Glnrr Of St rctcrsbrrE.

The Ncva is the glory OF 81. Peters
burg. Il is the soul OF the city. the
cause of its being and the secret OF ITS
greatness. Every one knows that 81.
Petersburg stands on the Neya. But
no one who has not lived in the city
can imagine what the Neva is to St.
Petersburg. Even the Russians them
selves do scant justice 10 their magnlti-
cent river. What the Adriatic is to
Venice. that the Neva is to St Peters
burg. The city is as if built on the
river. and seems almost TO float on the
water.
One-third of st. Petersburg is built
upon the islands which lie in the bed
Of the Neva, and which arc united
with the mainland by several bridges,
opened for an hour or two in the carly
morning for the passage Of ships.
Ocean going steamers can therefore
steam through the heart of 1t. Peters
burg, and the sight of these great ships,
anchored opposite the palaces on the
Ouai de la Cour, is almost like that OF
the tunnels of the steamers amid the fol
iage of the trees that line the canals Mt
Rotterdam. Many of the most fash
ionable houses are built along the
canals. and the views Of the Fontanka
from the bridge between the Anitch-
kof palace and that of the Grand Duke
Serge is one of the most beautiful city
scenes ] have ever beheld-W. L.

Forage for the Goat.

"There are 1000 goats in Flatbush,
Crow Hill and Pigtown alone, Mr..
Carey began. How do they live? They
forage. People do not give the goat any
credit for discrimination. They think 1t
will eat anything from an old and dis.
carded rubber to n nice green head of
lettuce. They're mistaken. l shall not
attempt to name all goat does eat, for
that, perhaps, would be impossible, But |
will mention some of the things it does
not touch. For instance, a goat will eat
nothing greasy, such as fat, lard or but
ter. Meat, too, i detests, but brown
paper is to it luxury. Goats easily dis
finguish between brown and white
paper, and while they will tear and de-
stroy the latter they seldom eat ii, unless
dying of starvation. Brown paper, as
you know, is made of straw and contains
great deal Of substance. l venture to
cay that goat would give good, pure
milk If kept on diet Of brown paper for
o month. In the matter Of trees, too, the
goat is particular. 1t will not touch the
bark of old ones, but dclAgh hts to dine off
tho fresh young sprouts of those recently
planted. 10 goats milk healthy? Look
ut those children. They've been brought

a Nctu Textile Plant.

Consul Williams, of Rouen, reports
that NJ. j. De Turck, of Lille, man
ager of spinning mills, has brought to
light a textile plant of Chinese origin
which he has called exotic flax It's
only about half the price of ordinary
flax, and the finest lace orthc strongest
cord can he made from it, as well as n
great variety Of intermediate fabrics
such as tablecloths, napkins, etc.
The material can be spun without
combing, and worked by the ordinary
flax machinery. The refuse fiber re

MARK IWAIN'S CoUHTsHIP.
Three Proposals Before the Humorist Got
Yes" for an Answer.


Mark Twain, il he is in the mood, viii tell
the story Of his own courtship in a manner
worthy Of the greatest Of living h.morists
When hs first met the lady who ctterward
became his wife he was not so distinguished
as now. his origin was humble, AID for some
years Of his life he had been pilot on the
Mississippi river. The future Mrs. Clemens
was a woman OF position and fortune, her
father was Judge and doubtless expected
"family" and social Importance IN his son-in-
law. Clemens, however, became interested
in his daughter and after awhile proposed,
but was rejected.
"well.n he said to the lady, ~ didn't much
believe you'd have me, but | thought I'd

After awhile be "tried" again, with the
same result, and then remarked with his cele-
brated drawl; IL think great deal more OF
you than IL you'd said Yes but it's hard
10 bear" A third time he met with better
fortune, and then came to the most difficult
part Of his task, to address the old man.
Judge he said to the dignified million
aire, ''have you seen anything going on be-
tween Miss Lizzie and mef'
"Wbati Whatr exclaimed the Judge,
rather sharply, apparently not understand
ing the situation, yet doubtless getting a
glimpse of it from the inquiry.

Miss Lizzie and meP

Mark has child who inherits some Of her
fathers brightness. She kept diary at one
time. in which she noted the occurrences IN
the family, and, among other things, the say
ings Of her parents. On one page she wrote
that father sometimes used stronger words
when mother wasn't by and he thought 1--WE
didn't hear. Mrs Clemens found the diary
and showed it to her husband, probably
thinking the particular page worth has
notice After this Clemens did and said sey-
eral things that were Intended TO attract the
child's attention, and found them duly noted
afterward But one day the following entry
occurred:

about father, for think be does things to

vtat Dyspcptic, should Rcmcmbcr.

One thing which all dyspeptics
should bear in mind is this: without
strong. healthy, wholesome blood in
their veins they cannot bc either well
or happy. and it from the food we eat
that bloodis made. About the most
that medicine can do for you is TO reg
ulate the bowels and secretions, IN
crease the appetite, and supply any
constituent that may be absent from
the blood, such as iron, etc. Over
eating is the most fruitful source OF
the dreadful mischief of Indigestion.
Young growing people need sub
stantial diet to build up their frames;
hard out door workers require good
and abundant food; middle aged
people who do not work should eat
most sparingly, and Of diet not too
much mixed; the old need still less TO
sustain the system.-Cassells Family
