three times before good Impression
Lcould be obtained, and, as may be
Imagined, IL was mighty ticklish busi-
ness.
These inventions, the klnetograph,
the kaleidoscope and the phono-kineto-
scope. put Mr.. Edison as certainly In
the foremost place among photog-
raphers and ctro-photographers as
the other products OF his genius enti-
tie him 10 rank first in the school OF
electricians. IL is difficult, while the
revelation is fresh in our thoughts and
new to our understanding. 10 estimate
what the kaleidoscope will contribute
TO the progress OF science and the
education OF man. 1t will dis
close movements that hitherto have elud-
ed the eye, aud as TO which speculation
has been misleading, aud IL will make
the great leaders OF the present live
again in the future as their contempo-
raries see and know them. What other
uses will be found for il Is too early to
say. That IL will enhance Mr.. Edison's
fame and increase the SUN OF the
worlds debt to him is beyond question.

1.-THE microscope does for the eye
what the phonograph does for the ear. 4"
That is a phrase which has often been
on the lips OF Thomas A. Edison during
the past several weeks, and II conveys
an idea which has been very much In
his mind for several years. 1t is per
feet epigrammatic definition of his
latest Invention, for 1t is fact that the
kaleidoscope reproduces the effect OF
motion just as the photograph repro
duces TO the ear the effect OF sound.
How this is done and what the machine
that does it is like, is is the purpose OF
this article to tell.
Several days ago the writer called by
appointment at the Edison laboratory

The kaleidoscope is sequel 10 the
kinetograph, the invention OF which was
announced some time ago. The busi-
ness OF the kinetograph is TO take the
pictures, and the function OF the kline
toscope is 10 display them 70 the eye,
one after another, so rapidly, that they
all seem like one scene. with the hgures
moving about as they do ia actual lie.
The forerunuer OF these inventions was
the zeotrope, q chid's toy which passed
before the gaze of the beholder four
mixtures In second, and
created a semblsnce OF the effect OF
motion. Then MuybrIdge got battery
Of cameras that would take from eigh-
teen 10 twenty impressions Ia a second.
But neither Of these was quick enough
10 deceive the human eye-that Is 70
say. IL eighteen or twenty pictures a
second were presented 70 the sight the
eve could easily detect when one went
and another came. Mr.. Edison discoV.
cred that, in order 10 create the Illusion
Of a stationary or continuous picture. Tor
ty-six views would have 10 be presented
every second, and each one Of them would
have 10 pause about the one-forty-SiXth
part of a second, and then be replaced
bv tie next in the one hundred and
eighty-ffth part Of a second. This Is
the rata at which the impressions are
received by the Kinetograpb, aud re-
produced by the kaleidoscope. IN the
kaleidoscope every picture must stop 10
exactly the same place as every other
picture. II IL did not there would be
a tremor which thu eye would notice,
and the Illusion would be dispeIled.
Suppose, for example, IL were desired

Mrs. PearY,s Oninion.

Mrs. Peary says of her husband s
Greenland expedition: "It is a mistake
to allude to my husband as a seeker for
the north pole. His object has been and
still is to delineate the northern coast of
Greenland. No one can tell how far
Greenland extends northward, and
Lieutenant Peary says that if it goes to
the pole he will go there, too; that, no
matter how high it runs, he is deter
mined to follow it." Mrs. Peary can't
tell whether she will go north again
next year. Her husband and herself
have spent about $50, 900 already ON
arctic research, and she now feels that
her future explorations in those regions
must depend upon public favor She
wants to go back, however next sum-
mer if she can.
