greatly reduced in sizs, but this was
because tho glass plates were small,

The secret of the wonderful invention
lies in the sensitivensss of sOleuium to

covered with composition which he
calls bromide of seleniun gelatine for

ducts the sonnd of his voice and thrown

The Tariff Battle.

1t would be rather curious if the des-
perate tariff battle of last year should
be brought TO an amicabls conclusion at
the next meeting of Congress by an
agreement of the two parties on
measure of reform iniinit " more radi-
cal than the Mills bill but the preEeut
outlook is in that direction. The New
York Tribune, tho st Louis Globe
Democrat and others of the leading
Republican and protectionist Journals
OF the E.st, have opened red-Lot war
Oh trusts. They declare that il these
combinations can he suppre sed in no
other way, they must he attacked ut the
cnstom-house, and they assert TINT the
Republican party will not shrink from
carrying the attack nven to the extent
of abUlishing the duties ON all articles
controlled by trusts. This work, they
say, will be carried out by tho new Con-
gress. From present appearances al
most every article produced in the
country will be III the hands Of trust
by the time Congress meets, and we
shall therefore have tariff that will fall
considerably short of one for revenu Q

Of the bcnediction thou shalt be.

On old growths appear
Thou shalt teach the ages, sturdy tree.
Youth OF soul is immortality.
