Among possibilities opened up by mod
ern science is that of being able to see over
rs great distances as we now hear by tele-
phone. From a lecture delivered 10y Mr..
lie Pontois before the Pittsburg Electric
club it appears that sufficient advance has
been made upon an instrument Of this
character to give color to the belief that its
perfection is only matter Of n short time.
The operation of tine instrument described
is based upon the property of selenium by
virtue OF which its resistance is affected by
light, and by submitting a selenium cell
successfully To the various degrees of lignt
reflected from the object to be pictured
current o; a pulsating nature is produced,
whose pulsations respond to the various
light waves reflected and are transmitted
over the line and reproduced at the receiv-
ing instrument. The image IL reflected as
in looking glass and transmitted over
wire without the use Of photography or any
permanent recording Of the picture.

origin Of tho Name cur"

Here is an ingenious if not strictly his.
torical story of how the name ''cur" origi-
mated: A cur is dog of low degree and
mean extraction, such cheap animal as
the villeins in feudal England could afford
to keep, very different from the blooded
dogs Of the gentry. But when the gentry
went hunting with their hounds, etc., the
villeins went along with their dogs to dc
the dirty work, and in the chase the dogs
mixed in democratic fashion. The bloods
wanted their quality dogs to have the
credit of bagging the game, but at a dis
tance the dogs could not be distinguished.
So the gentry ordered the villeins to cut off
the tails Of their dogs, and they were called
''cur-tails." This was too long word and,
in talk, they cut across lots and said ours. "
That is. the men dropped the word tails,
and the dogs also dropped their tails.

TIE. COUCH IN a COW ROOM.

A Narcotic That Clears tho Sight, Steadies
tho Nerves, Lightens the Heart.
A room without couch Of some sort is
ouly half furnished. Life is full of ups and
downs, and all that saves the sanity of the
mentally 1adsd and physically exhausted
fortune fighter Is the periodical. good cry
and momentary loss Of conscicelsn on
the up stairs lounge or the old sofa In the
sitting room. There are times when so
many Of the things that distract US could
be Strengthened out, and the way made
clear IL one only had long, comfortable
couch on whose soft bosom he could throw
himself, boots and brains, stretch his weary
frame, unmindful of tides and tapestry,
close his tired eyes, relax the tension Of his
muscles and give his harassed mind a
chance. Ten minutes Of this soothing mar
cotic, when the head throbs, the soul yearns
for endless, dreamless, eternal rest, would
make the vision clear, the nerves steady.
the heart light and the star Of hope shine
again.
There Is no doubt that the longing to die
is mistaken for the need of nap. Instead
OF the immortality Of the soul business men
and working women want regular and sys-
tematic doses Of doing, and after messy
bank in the shade Of an old oak that sue
ceeding seasons have converted into tene-
ment of song birds there Is nothing that
can approach big sofa or low, long couch
placed In the corner, where tired nature can
turn her face to the wall and sleep and doze
away the gloom, says Halls Journal Of
Health.

OLYMPIA Is pushing ahead for terminal
facilities; Aberdeen wants the Northern
Pacific to come there; Hoquiam believes
that great wealth would flow into the
Grays harbor region if the railroads would
penetrate the Humptulips country !;
Ocosta is growing; Clallam county is
clamoring for railroads. 1t looks as if
the Olympic region would be opened this
summer. New settlers have been going
into the Quillayute, Humptulips and
other valleys of that section in large num-
beis, and Mason county is adding to it's
population. The increased activity in
the lumber trade will largely develope
the country to the west and northwest Of
us. There are virgin forests of remark
able timber there. In spite of the de-
pressed lumber market last year, Grays
harbor is credited with shipping 70,270,-
600 feet of lumber, against Sc, 25S, 900 in

EASTER.
Rules Governing This old and Movable
Festival.

RuIcs Governing This Old and MoVaoie
Festival.
The festival of the resurrection OF Christ
probably derives its Teutonic name from
the festival of the Goddess Ostara-in AN,
.lo-Saron Easter-which the Saxons OF old
s,,ora wont to celebrate about the same sea-
son at which the Christian festival Oh ras'e'
occurs. In the second century alspuoe
arose as to the proper time Tor ceiepra.lns
Easter between the eastern ana weSoe.n
churches. The great mass OF eastern Cnri',
tians celebrated Easter on the l4tn Gay %
the first month or moon, considering =. "
be equivalent to the Jewish passover Wnen
Christ was crucified. The western OnI,S.
tians celebrated it on the Sunday aiter Tue
14th. holding that it was the commepior o.,
ton of the resurrection OF Jesus. Inc
council of Nice, A. D. 325, decided IN raVoi
Of the western usage.
At the time of the Introduction OF ohe
GreQorian calendar it was debated wnetnei
Easter should continue movable least OF
whether a fixed Sunday after the 2lst OF
March should not be adopted. In deference
TO the ancient custom the ecclesiastical au
thorities decided to adhere to the method OF
determining the day by the moon IL mus
be understood, however, that IL IL no' .nt
actual moon in the heavens, nor even tne
mean moon of the astronomers that regu'
lates the time Of Easter. but an altogether
imaginary moon, whose periods are SO con
trived that the new (calendar) moon always
follows the real new moon-sometimes py
two or even three days. The effect OF this Is
that the fourteenth Of the calendar moon
which had from the time Of Moses been con
sidered full moon for ecclesiastical pur
poses-falls generally on the fifteenth OF
sixteenth of the real moon, and thus after
the real full moon, which is generally on
the fourteenth or fifteenth day With thi!
explanation, then, Of what is meant by "fui
moon"-viz., that 1t is the fourteenth DAY
of the calendar moon-the rule Is that Eastel
day is always the first Sunday after the pas
chal full moon|. e., the full moon which
