the expectation of prompt and abundant

Captain Fraysseix of the French navy
has thought of something which will make
war still more dangerous than 1t has been.
His invention consists in the application
of the ozark room" to the operation of
aiming. The image of the object to be
hit, passing through lens, is reproduced
upon a screen. The pointer looks at this
image, just as the photographer would
look at an image upon his ground glass.
He brings the object to the central point
of the screen; and then he fires. In this
way the shot or shell reaches the object
with accuracy. The results of the expert
ments are said to be marvellous But
another great ad Vantage in this new method
of firing consists in doing away with the
necessity of long training for gunners.
Any intelligent man can go into the "dark
room" and shoot straight.
Being hanged is not generally looked
upon as pleasant thing, but there is evil
dence that it is not as bad as it looks.
Michael Blume, who was twice strung up
by lynchers near FIR 40, Californis, still
lives, and has told how IL feels to be
hanged. He tells how when he was first
run up he "felt his neck crack" There
was no pain after the first moment. He
says: "I seemed to be swimming in air
that was intensely dark, but thought I
was in some familiar place. It was like a
dream. I seemed to be floating away
faster and faster, and lighter and lighter,
until passed into nothingness. did not
know when was let down. I returned to
consciousness as gradually and as painless
ly as had passed away" he was let
down in the hope that a confession might
be got from him, but he said he had none
to make and was run up again. This time
he WAS conscious of rather long and pain
full struggle, and then seemed to float off
painlessly into space. He was let down
again, and this time the coming to life was
somewhat painful.

HOW RECIPROCITY WORKS.

HOW RECIPROCITY WORKS.
How useful reciprocity is to this country
may be seen in the working of the New
Spanish tariff which has just gone into
operation in Cuba and Porto Rico. This
tariff places duty of sixty five cents per
kilo on all moving machinery from Europe,
also = heavy duty on copper. The i'm
mediate result is that Cuban houses are
oanceling their orders in Europe and are
looking to this country for their supplies
of machinery. A large manufacturing
concern in Buffalo, which makes ma
chinery for sugar planters, and whose
market is largely in the countries south of
us, has just received from Cuban who has
been an agent for European manufactur-
ers letter in which he expresses the
desire to handle American goods. He
says: The new Cuban tariff opens a wide
field of operations to the American manu-
facturer by giving him, through the new
treaty between this country and the United
States, a monopoly in the importation of
all Glasses of machinery, both agricultural
and industrial, free of duty, against a dis
elimination of 20, so, 80, and in some cases
up to 200 per cent. on European imports.
The French, Belgian and German manu-
facturers had heretofore supplied planters
with machinery, favored by cheap labor
and duty of per cent. ad valorem, and
It is now the opportunity of American
manufacturers to grasp this market and
remain for good.
This is condition and not theory. 1t
is condition which shows how wisely the
Republican statesmen Lave worked.

Dear, radiant flower, so willingly
By stony roadside growing,
And from the lonely pasture knolls
Its glints of glory throwing!
Dear hardy sod, that will not keep
The sunlight it has treasured,
Although its gainful time must be
So soon and shortly measured!
The Trailer blossoms fall away
From brooksides and from meadows,
AS though they felt, far off, the chill
OF autumn's Fastening shadows.
Few daisies grace the aftermath
By clicking mowers banished-
The dandelion's starry gold
In floating films has vanished.
But straightway, from the barren sods,
Pierced through by hoary lodges,
And thickly on the worn out land
That richer acres edges,
Wherever chance or sloth has left,
Uncared for, vacant places,
Brave, ready, glad, the golden-rod
The lonesome dearth effaces.
The bending orchard boughs display
Their fruitage, early mellowed;
The dropping wheat-stocks show the grains
By sun and dew-falls yellowed;
Yet, bordering their fertile slopes
May well be spared from sowing
The fallow soil where, free and late,
The golden-rod is growing!

ATTACKING INrEMPERANCE,


Any intelligent attack on intemperance
is interesting and worth the attention of
all who hope to see the curse removed.
Unoommonly interesting is the work which
has been done at Marseilles by the savings
bank and others. The action of the bank
grew out of the idea that the money squan-
dered by the working classes on unwhole-
some liquors is so much in reduction of
their savings, and that the latter will in
crease if the former can in any way be
diminished. The bank employed 100, 900
francs of its own funds in building model
dwelling houses, with gardens, for work
ingmen, on the theory that If a mans
home is made pleasant for him he will not
spend his evenings and his earnings in
the cabaret; it also formed stock COM
pany, with a capital of $50. 900 francs. for
the same purpose; it began system
of loans on mortgage to workingmen
who wished to own their own homes;
this led to the formation of the first CO.
operative building association established
in France. A step in another direction
was the establishment of school savings
banks with view to instilling economy in
the rising generation. From 1913 deposits
amounting to q total of 2.221 francs in
1887, the figures rose to 1880 deposits
amounting to 33,3A francs in 1891, and
the number of participating schools has
grown from 16 to 80; in the present year
not only the municipal but also the
private and the church schools have joined.
To stimulate the savings of small sums
and get them away from the liquor-dealers,
stamps are sold, of the value of two cents
each, and when ten of them are pasted
on card, they can be deposited, a
franc being the smallest amount savings
bank can lawfully receive on deposit. Fur
ther, q series of popular lectures were de-
livered in different parts of the city, by
the young physicisns of the hospitals, on
the specific diseases and the increased
mortality directly caused by alcoholism
thus making an appeal to the selfish, pru
Dental motives; and a very effective
pamphlet on the respective effects of the
| bar-room and the savings-bank on indie
pendence, health and happiness has beer
prepared and distributed.
These measures have not been in opera
ton long enough to be fairly tested. The,
are certainly reasonable and promising.

Keeping Track of Wires.

The manner in which the electric light
companies keep track of the wires they
string over the city lis curious and very
simple. A board about three feet long
and two feet wide is secured and heavy
piece of cardboard is tackled on it. Then
a diagram of the city drawn, showing all
the streets. Now comes the laying out of
the wires. Pins are then stuck into the
cardboard on each street, on which wires
are strung, and around each pin twine ia
placed. The twine starts from the central
electric station, and following 1t up any
wire can be traced. When there are more
than one line of wires on street the num-
ber is represented by strings on the chart.
