THE FlElO-TECEPHONE.
An Ingenious Instrument for Use In Time
of War.

An Ingenious Instrument for Use In Time
of War.
The whole matter of military COM
munication devolves upon the signal
service. and the signal corps OF the
army has, until recently, on account of
assignment to other service. been able
to do little more than keep informed of
the progress of other nations in the de-
velopment of material and methods of
conveying intelligence, and to endeavor
to judge of the merits of improvements
by Office tests rather than field trial.
After many tests of foreign devices
the government employed the Bell
Telephone Co. to devise and manufac-
ture an instrument which it is hoped
will meet all requirements for COM
munication in the field. In this in
strument the principles of the Eccard
knapsacx telephone, a previous Amer
lean device, and the trumpet telephone
of the German army are combined. 1t
consists of an ingenious arrangement
of Bell telephone. Morse key, and bat
terry, which are all contained in a small
leather case worn by strap over the
shoulder. The wire is coiled on a
reel in a separate case, and makes
a load for one man. The tele-
phone part is SO contrived that the re-
ceiver and transmitter are one piece
which may be held in place by one
hand, the receiver at the ear and the
transmitter at the mouth, while the
other hand manipulates the key. The
key takes the place of the call-box in
an ordinary telephone, and makes a
sharp click in the receiver at the other
end of the line, which calls the opera
tors attention.
If desirable, the instrument may also
be used to telegraph as well as to te,e-
phone. Conditions might exist in
action where cannonading and the like
would render it difficult to hear spoken
words in the telephone. Then it is that
the sharp click of the telegraph key
spells the message through the tele-
phone receiver in the ear of the opera
tor, who hears it as clearly as if hun
bred miles from the scene of action.
The wire used is light insulated double
conductor, which has a tensile strength
that will Withstand the strain of being
run over by artillery wheels, and may
be safely laid on the ground. 1t is usu-
ally strung along fences, however, for
rapid work, and on trees and light
poles when practicable One man can
carry about one and one-half miles of
this wire, which would weigh with reel
ffty-two pounds.-Harper's Weekly.

Feeding sheep for Market.

Feeding sheep for market can in
many cases be made profitable If prop.
err care is taken in the management, vet
the larger proportion of the sheep sent
to market have not been fed into q
proper condition to make the best NUT
ton. This not only lessons the price it
is possible to realize, but also affects
the profits and tends to restrict con-
sumption. It is an exceptional case
with any kind of stock when it can be
considered desirable to send to market
before they are fully ready, and espe-
cially so at this season when it is COM
paratively easy with little care in
feeding TO. fully fatten for market.
With good pasturage very little extra
feeding will fit an average sheep into

WHERE SHE MADE HER MISTAKE

An Interesting Side Remark That Escaped
Attention.
1t is amusing to see how thoroughly
. Frenchwoman is a natural match
maker, and how she supposes that the
search for a ''bon parti'' must ever be
uppermost in the mind of properly
regulated young woman. At a dinner
in Paris, given by hostess noted for
tact and elaborate entertainments, the
pretty woman, conveying tall. awk-
ward youth, auttered up to an Ameri-
can girl, saying: "Allow me to pre-
sent Monsieur N, Miss X; he is to
have the pleasure of taking you out to
dinner" = adding in quick little
''aside" behind her fan, He is worth
ten million francs, my dear" At the
table Miss X. discovered her escort to be
decidedly uninteresting, while her 9TH
er neighbor, Monsieur T., proved to be
most amusing, though a middle-aged,
plain little man. To him she devoted
herself throughout the dinner, continu-
ing the conversation afterward in the
drawing-room, where the neglected
Crnsus promptly deserted her.
A short time after, when making her
dinner call, the American girl remark
ed to her hostess that she had found
Monsieur T. such clever man.
20, yes, quite clever little man; but
what did You think of Monsieur NJ" in
quired madame
HE was rather young, and there
didn't seem to be anything particular

lect of her escort at the dinner.
'.Ah." exclaimed her hostess, 81 felt

ested you that you did not hear me tell
you that he was worth ten million

Some celebrated man, who saw a lit
tie clearer than others, once said: 1.-THE
fear of looking like fool has pre-
vented many a man acting like hero!'
This unworthy fear, which consists
largely of self-conceit and self-con.
sciousness, is the great vice to be elm
mated in growing from the heart, out.
There is nothing but love which can
utterly overpower it It is that love
which is love to God and love to our
fellow-men, and which, growing greater
and greater in the heart, finally casts
out self-conseious fear as well as every
other baser thing. Where love grows
perfect there is room for nothing else.

There is q great deal of most arrant
nonsense in this talk about always
sympathizing with "the under dog in
the fight" If the under dog is right the
sympathy is right. If it is a case of OPP
preston, cruelty, avarice and wrong,
then that sympathy is noble one. But
far too much of it is a maudln, soft
headed, wrong hearted sympatby-a
sympathy devoid of all reason, barren of
Christian, womanly grace-a sentimental
sympathy for ''the under dog without
pausing to inquire whether the dog be q
Ffdus Achates or common cur. Real,
genuine. intelligent sympathy Is grand
factor in moulding men and making hui
manity better, but the maudlin sympathy
bereft Of reason is not only disgusting to
thoughtful people, but it is q positive
damage to society.

The peoples party convention Of Ford
county, last Saturday, acted in such
manner as to maintain their own self
respect and even win that of their op-
ponents, by commenting those republic
can newspapersand republican statesmen
who haye stood up for principal and
against the venial and corrupting infu-
euces of the single standard conspira-
tors, as represented by the present DEM
ocratic administration. In refusing to
enter into any arrangement to support
democrats for county Offices, they
were certainly consistent, especially in
view of the fact that Ford county dem
ocracy had just adopted by unanimous
vote, a resolution endorsing the admin
istration at Washington. which repre-
sents the very element the peoples
party was organized to Withstand in its
encroachments upon the rest of man
kind.

Some Of the English towns and cities
have introduced device for ventilating

to heat to a high temperature series Of
cast iron cones over the surfaces Of
which the sewer gases have to pass ON
their way out to the atmosphere, which
by such contact are entirely destroyed.
In order to obviate all danger Of explo-
sion caused by leakage, this new safety
furnace consists Of series Of cylindrio-
al rings or segments, each mechanical
" fitted. An intermediate ring divides
the combustion chamber from the verti-
cal air passages formed between the in
ner and outer ring of the furnace. II
heat of the furnace is conveyed to til
outer ring by means Of thick cast irol
webs that form tiers Of air channels
through which the uprising sewer air
passes, and the burner is supplied with
air taken from the outside of the de
structor column" York Sun.
