Edison Found the Break.

DR.. Norvin Green. the long time pres

Company, claimed that he gave Edison
the employment which was the begin
ming of his successful career, to which
as Is we'll known, the Western Union
corporation has largely contributed
Edison had been bothering the officeri
Of the company with telegraphic devi
ces they had no need Of. He came Int
the Office one day when 1t was imposst
BILE to obtain communication between
New York and Albany, and the seat OF
the difficulty could not be located. He
was banteringly invited to remedy tn.
trouble. He said he could do so in tive
hours. He was laughed at and giver
two days for the task. His process
was very simple. He telegraphed to
the best operator In Pittsburg. and in.
structed him to telegraph to the best
operator In Albany. The latter tele-
graphed his New York line down as
far as he could. feeling his way from
point to point. and sending the results
to the Pittsburg man, who forwarded
them to Edison. In less than one hour
Edison said to the anxious officials
'.The break Is two miles from Pough
keepsie." That simple method insured
his status with the Western Union peo
pie and won for him a hearing in all
his schemes.-Philadelph Times.

LONG NAILS THEIR SYMBOL

they Are the Mark Of Aristocracy 70
the People OF Amman.
In the empire Of AMMAN. In Southeri
Asia, finger nails are a mark Of aristoo
racy. and among the upper classes theJ
are allowed to grow to an enormOui
length. Nobody. Of course. can do worl
Of perform service Of any kind with
long nnger-nails projecting a foot o.
more and liable to injury. Even writ
ing Is impossible to such persons. Th
man with the longest finger-nails Is thi
leader Of AMMAN society. AristOcrat
in that country have to be attended a
all hours Of the day and night by ser
wants, who perform for them the mos
trivial offices.
The AMMAN ladies cannot comb theii
hair. They cannot even feed them
selves. for fear Of damaging their lont
and beautiful finger-nails. No poo
man in AMMAN can have fnger-naili
even few inches long. as he cannot af.
ford to employ the servants which thai
would necessitate.
This absurd practice has prevailed
in AMMAN for many centuries. The
lower classes there have as much rev.
erence for long finger-nails as do the
lower classes in England for long ances
trail trees. 1t will thus be seen thai
AMMAN is more Of a democracy than
England, for the son Of a newly rich
merchant can cultivate finger-nails a,
long as those Of the King. while the
Annamite Of even the bluest blood
once he is deprived Of wealth and ser
wants. must cut his finger-nails and de
scend among the common herd. Hit

A Mountain OF God,

The most famous and puzzling Of all
gold mines is the Mount Morgan. 1t
appears from one Of the Sidney papers
that it contributes more precious metal
to the worlds treasure than any other
patch of the earth's surface Of the same
extent Mount Morgan is supposed to
be the product Of a thermal spring, and
Is simply a mountain Of gold, but Of
gold that has already been treated by
nature. In some far-on age the hill has
been a huge natural crucible, and all
the gold 1t contains has been already
mined, chemically dissolved and pre-.
cipitated by nature herself. No speck
of gold larger than a pin point has ever
been discovered in the mount. The pre-.
cious metal exists In q sort Of golden
flour, dissolved through aronstone.-.

harmless to man, and are Of great value
In the economy Of nature. There are
however, q few species Of bacteria that
are responsible for some OF the most
dreaded and widespread Of human dis.
eases, some of which are undoubtedly
contracted by inhaling the bacteria
hoating In the dust. For collecting bac,
terra in the air, what is known as the
'plate method" Is most used. Into
a perfectly clean shallow glass dish is
poured a thin layer Of warm nutrient"
gelatin, allowing 1t to solidify by cool
ing. which gives a smooth, moist and
tolerably adhesive surface, each dish
being protected by closely fitting glass
covers. When 1t Is desired TO examine
the air of any particular place a GOV.
cred dish Is set In a still place and the
cover taken off. Dust particles, inor
ganic as well as organic, will settle Cd
the gelatin.
The germ Of consumption or tubercu.
losis Is found in the dust that blows
about our streets and in our houses
This germ is, on an average, one-ten-
thousandth Of an inch long. 1t does
not grow in nature outside the bodies
of men and a few species of warm
blooded animals; but 1t may remain
alive for a long time in the dry state,
For some reason that we do not know
1t will not grow in the bodies Of many
men and animals. but orner persons
and animals furnish the unknown con
ditions, and in them the bacillus tuber-
culosis grows readily and more or less
rapidly With reference to this germ
the human race is indebted to bacteria
lOgists for showing. in the first place,
that consumption is not inherited: in
the second place. that without the pres
ence and growth in the body of this
bacillus the individual cannot have
cOnsImption: and. in the third place.
that consumption is n preventable dis
ease. Again, and Of the greatest sig
nificance to the community, We know
that every person suffering from con-
sumption Of the lungs may be eXpec-
torating every day millions of living
and virulent bacilli, whose life and
virulence are not destroyed by a long
period of drying. This is fact of ter
rible significance when we take into
consideration the companion fact that
from One-Seventh to One-fOurth of all
the people who die are carried off by
consumption. And almost every person
who dies Of consumption Of the lungs
acquires the disease from bacilli fur
nished by some other consumptive. The
vast majority Of consumptives undoubt-
edly take the germs into their lungs
with the air they breathe. and the
germs get into the air from the dried
expectoration of persons suffering from
the terrible disease.
But while 1t IS true that persons with
consumption may be a constant source
of danger to their healthy fellows. 1t
Is not true that they always are or need
be. The breath itself Of the consump-
tive person, however Ill he may be, is

The use Of dogs for military purposes
has proved so successful in Germany
that the dog soldier Is continually be-
Ing taught new things. Near Dresden
recently there was n test Of skill on the
part Of army dogs which was a great
revelation Of their accomplishments.
Two companies Of soldiers separated
by q distance of a mile and q quarter,
one Of them supposed to be an outpost
In the face Of an enemy, communicated
for some time by the aid Of dogs trained
to go back and forth. Each time the
distance between the two companies
was traversed by the dogs in less than
two minutes, in spite Of intense heat
and a great deal of confusing firing.
The special object Of the use of these
fast dogs is to enable detachments to
Inform themselves Of the speed at which
the enemy Ia approaching. and so to
maintain a position up to the last mo
ment practicable.
On the same occasion the cartridge
dogs performed their peculiar duty,
which 10 to supply the troops with cart
ridges during a rapid fusillade. Each
dog wears kind of pack k-saddIe v
mrries three hundred cartridges. With
this load he travels up and down the
hne of men, who help themselves to
cartridges as they have need.
As soon as the pack-saddle Is empty
the dog. at command, makes of at full
bpeed to get 1t replenished.
Every one has heard Of the dogs Of
the ''pious monks Of st. Bernard"
which are supposed to have a sort of
monopoly Of the accomplishment of
serving the wounded and helpless, and
calling assistance for them. But the
German military have trained dogs to
,earch out and attend the wounded, and
tall human assistance.
These dogs Of the ambulance corps
are trained to divide duties. Some Of
them, carrying a little flask of water
Or restoratives, simply sit and bark or
bay near the body of a fallen man.
Others have been trained to go in
search Of assistance, and guide to the
spot q. soldier Of the ambulance corps.
Tho trained dogs performed all these
functions very skillfully at the recent
trial near Dresden. 1t IL plain that tho
German army, If II should be engaged
In another war, would be accompanied
BY . greater number Of dogs than ever
before accompanied an army on cam
bdlU.
