Submarine Telegraph Lines.

Only the feeblest currents should be
used on submarine lines. since heavy
pulses which could be employed with
impunity on land lines, if they did not
soon destroy the cable covering, would,
at least, tend to develop faults which
otherwise might long remain latent.
Defects in cable-covering that other
wise may not lead to harm admit
moisture, and hence, under the action
of strong current oxides are quickly
formed, destroying insulation. The
necessary use, in ocean telegraphv. Of
the ightest currents has led to the de-
velopment OF class OF recording in
struments, remarkable for delicacy Of
automatically the siphon recorder,
which indicates the electric impulses
by a wavy ink line on tape, and the
rejecting galvanometer, which causes
a spot OF light to move from right to
left In q darkened room. With these
recorders and thirty cells of battery,
messages sent across the Atlantic are
geographically reproduced in ink at
the rate OF from twenty to twenty-five
words minute, each way, the cable
being duplexed. But for electrostatic
Induction q single cell OF battery would
suffice for transmission from the earth
20 the moon, IL those bodies could be
connected by wire of the size used
by ocean cables. -Scribner' Magazine.

forfeit what it is hard to win. But

demonstrative is more delicate and
beautiful than that OF dog. Who that

has not watched its dismay at the
signs of packing up and leaving home?
We ourselves have known n cat who
would recognize his masters footsteps
after n three months absence and
come out to meet him in the hall with
tail erect and purring all over as If to
the very edge of bursting. And an
other cat we know who comes up every
morning between six and seven O'Clock
to wake his master, sits on the bed and
very gently feels first one eyelid and
then the other with his paw. When
an eye opens, but not till then, the cat
sets up a loud purr like the prayer OF
a fire-worshiper TO the rising sun.
Those who say lightly that cats
care only for places, and not for
persons, should go TO the cat show
