InoouIatIns whales.

DIR. Nelson, Of Norway, states that
the fisherfolk of Bergen have for over
500 years inoculated whales with
bacteria in order to kill them. The
whales enter Q firth near the town,
and are driven into q narrow bay. A
net is then stretched across it's mouth,
and the whales shot with poisoned ar
rows. After n day or two they be.
come sickly, aud are easily despatched.
The arrows inocuIate them with a
disease like 'sympathetic anthrax. I"
and when pulled out OF the wounds

Telephony Between Paris and
London.

The work OF connecting Paris with
London by meanes OF a telephone line
will mark an important feature in
telephony. This means OF communica-
ton has hitherto been mainly confin-
ed to land telephony, which has assum-
ed considerable proportions, and
especially as regards long-distance
telephony, as, for instance, between
Paris and Brussels, Paris and Mar
settles, and quite recently by the
establishment of communication be-
tween Manchester and Birmingham
and London. The Paris London line
is, however, a new departure. From
London to Dover this line will be car
ried overhead, from Dover to near
Calais the line will consist of
submarine cable, and from
Calais to Paris it will be run
overhead in the same manner as
from London to Dover. At present
several hundred men are actively en-
gagged in erecting this line, which it is
intended to put into operation on the
18th OF April. The telephone trans
mitters, receivers and accessories in
pairs will at first be erected at the
Bourse, but as soon us the Telephone
Exchange in tho Rue Gutenberg is
completed they will be removed to
that establishment. 1t is proposed
to keep the line open for communica-
ton both day and night throughout
the seven days of each week This
will, OF course, necessitate Sunday
work in both cities, and it will not be
very agreeable to London telephonists.
The charge for using the telephone has
not been fixed, but it is believed that
it will not be less than los for five
minutes conversation.

vagarIes OF the Magnetic Needle.
The old saying, "True rs the needle
to the pole, is quite misleading, be-
cause three people in five. who, use it,
are thinking ofthe north pole, while
the fact is that the termini OF the
earth's axis are not coincident with
the magnetic poles. It was of great
Importance to navigators in northern
ATTITUDES to determine the exact posi-
ton OF the north magnetic pole in
order to make the needle perfectly
trustworthy guide. One day nearly
sixty years ago, while the famous
polar traveller, sir John Ross, was
sledgng over the icy hummocks north
of this continent, he found place on
the western shore of Boothia Felix,
where the dipping-needle wholly lost it's
directive power and stood within one
minute of the vertical. This discovery
enabled Greeley, at Lady Franklin
bay, when he found his needle point
ing nearly southwest, to- determine
the true north by few minutes cal
culation. The position of the south
magnetic pole has also been approx
mately determined, and not sea
captain sails the ocean to-day who
is not greatly indebted to these dis
coveries. These magnetic poles slow
ly move back and forth across the
polar area. They have probably
changed their position since they were
found, and scientific men while ago
were urging the Importance of sending
out expeditions to relocate them

PORTLAND. Oct. 7. 1891.
NJ EVER has so much
~ thought and origi-
nality been devot-
ed to the designing and in
vention of garments for
children, and never such
care and watchfulness to
the details of workmanship
as at present.
The best work of artists,
designers and skilled nee-
dleworkers is now utilized
in the production of baby's
clothing and the result of it
all is bewildering and alto
gether satisfying. A child
dressed in a complete out
fit of these modern gar
ments is an object of pic
turesque animation that
must arrest the attention
of every appreciative OBJ
server.
The immense stock of
dresses, cloaks, sacques,
coats and caps, that is to
be seen now in our Infants
OutfitDepartment is a good
deal larger and a good deal
prettier than any line we've
shown before, and it has
many novelties, some of
them of our own devising,
that should be seen by
those who have children
from two to five years old
to provide for.
No use to attempt de-
scription, the only proper
way to get a comprehensive
idea of what it is like is to
come here and see it. And
that is what we hope you'll
do.
