Ne,v Telegraph araehIne.

A new telegraph machine has been
invented by Herr Jaite, director of tele.
graphs in Berlin. The apparatus con.
tains two electromagnetic, the ona
worked by a positive and the other by 4
negative current. These set in motion
perforator, whereby holes are punched
in tape. The holes, instead of consist
ing of mere dots and dashes, as In the
Morse system, are so arranged that ON
joining them with lines the letters of
the Roman alphabet are formed. The
chief merit Of the machine is said to lie
in the extraordinary ease with which Il
can be worked. 1t is stated that at
recent trial between the Berlin and Ham
burg Stock Exchanges, distance of
nearly 200 miles. it was found possible
to send from sixty-five to eighty.fye
messages per hour. or from twenty-five
to thirty.fve words per minute.

The use of saccharin, the chemical
substitute for sugar, instead of sugar,
appear to be widening. An expert
ment in which the New York Times
says, all housekeepers are interested
is that of preserving fruit with sac
charm, at considerable gain in
flavor and wholesomeness 1t will,
of coarse, take time to test the new
process, which, however, is most
promising in theory.

o TIME AND CHANGE.

o Time and Change. they range and range.
From sunshine round to thunderl
They glance aud go as the great winds blow,
And the best of our dreams drive under;
For Time and Change, estrange, estrange-
And now they have looked and seen us,
o we that were dear we are all too near
With the thick of the world between us.
o Death and Time, they Chime and chime
Like bells at sunset falling!-
They end the song, they right the wrong
They set the old echoes calling;
For Death and Time bring on the prime
OF Gods own chosen weather,
And We lie in the peace of the Great Release
As once in the grass together.

sionally she will take a sudden and
altogether unreasonable distaste Tor
one of them This may be due either
to the fact that she has become wearied

her voice no longer soothes, but rather

majesty may have heard some trifing

her. In such cases as this the queen
grows downright pnkind, and it be-
comes the unpleasant duty Of one Of the

Popular Mistake rs to Screwdrivers.

1t is sometimes supposed by persons
imperfectly informed in mechanics that
a long screwdriver gives greater clever
ags' that short one. This, however,
is incorrect The action of a screwdriver,
the pressure on which is direct. is not
Sn any way analogous to that of lever.
The superiority of long screwdriver
rests simply on two facts: first, you can
generally get better grip of long
screwdriver than of short one and can
bring the whole weight of the body
and strength of the arms to bear on it;
and second, the torsion of the iron in a
long screw driver comes in to supple
ment the force employed. The only
way in which leverage can come in is
in connection with the breadth of the
point of the screwdriver, and even this
counts for nothing beyond the breadth
OF the head of the screw.-Brooklyn
