Photography is thus described in the
April number, 1852, of The Courier
Neritable, n little monthly publication
in which novel fancies were frequently
aired: Captain Vosterloch has re-
turned from his voyage to the southern
lands which he started on two years
and a half ago, by order of the states
general. He tells us among other
things that in passing through n strait
below Magellan's, he landed in n coun-
try where nature has furnished men
with a kind of sponges which hold
sounds and a~rticulations as our
hold liquids.
so, when they wish to dispatch a
message to a distance, they speak to
one of the sponges, take them up gen
tly and press out the words that have
been spoken into them. and learn by
this admirable means all hat their cor.
respondents desire to know. "-Albert
de Rochas in Popular Science Monthly.

"used-up," bilious and dyspeptic.
It's done by DIR. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery. 1t starts the
torpid liver into heaithful action,
purifes and enriches the blood,
cleanses, repairs, and strengthens
the system, and restores health and
vigor. As an appetizing, restora-
tive tonic, it sets at work all the
processes of digestion and nutri-
ton, and builds up flesh and
strength. It's the only Blood and
Liver Remedy that's guaranteed, in
every case, to benefit or cure. If it
doesn't do all that's claimed for it,
the money is promptly refunded.
But it keeps its promises : that's
the reason it can be sold in this
way.

something else, said to be "just as

larger profit. There's nothing at
all like the Discovery"

Some weird and sacred sorcery
Makes music's self appear to be
An unexistent dream. apart
From you. your life and singing heart
Strange bits Of htful moods of sound
Are In your aspects in~terwound:
Your attitudes and movement own
An oversoul Of time and tone.
Brief notes of Rhythmic light arise
Through the blue shadows In your eyes;
Your each i~nbreathing seems to be
AdrauEht Of silent melody.
The room that holds your song seems hung
With tapestries your soul has sung,
a SOFT and gentle radiance falls ,
From where your voice glows on the walls.
And where your harmonics have shouo
quiet warmth still fingers on,
Like sunshine on an evening lawn.
After your living self is gone.
