A NEW and scientific method of re-

The writing is obtained by means OF
an ingenious instrument called the
Autograph, or lip writer. 1t is a
French invention. One instrument is
now in the possession Of DIR. Arthur
Mcdonald, of the bureau Of educa-
ton in Washington, who is making
experiments with it. The writing of
the Autograph does not record letters
but the sounds Of which word is
composed. Anyone can satisfy himself
that the lines are readable by compar-

THE sad fact that suicide and educa-
ton increase ut the same rate, Apple
toms Popular Science Monthly says, Is
generally admitted. Civilization does
not free humanity from grief, disgrace
and disappointment; but wherever
civilization is highest the struggle for
existence Is fiercest There was q
time in Roman history when suicide
was almost epidemic. 1t was when
the great republic had reached its
acme of civilization. 1t is probable
that the proportion Of suicides due to
mental arrangements is increasing,
but how rapidly can never be exactly
determined.
