THOUGHT PHOTOGRAPHY.
some Startling Results Obtained by
an English Gentleman,
E. A. PAYNE.

l
an English Gentleman.
Photographers are much interested
in the results in thought photography,
said to have been obtained by Mr.. Inglis
Roger, of Plymouth, England. MANY
are very skeptical, however, and re-
quire further proof. Mr.. Roger is said
tc have looked for half hour at a
sheet OF white cardboard, placed under
bright gas jet, upon which was drawn
a circle surrounding a cross. Then, ex-
tingulshing the gas and removing the
cardboard he gazed steadily at sensi-
tive plate for half hour. His efforts
to develop the plate were unsuccessful.
The next morning he repeated his ex-
pertinent with white cardboard, upon
which was only cross. This time he
placed box from which the air had
been exhausted between his eyes and
the plate. Upon development the plate
showed two images, the cross at which
he had just looked, and the cross and
circle at which he had gazed the day be-
fore. Pleased with his success. the
photographer resolved to attempt a
more ambitious experiment. He took
his wife to witness realistic play. The |
next day Mrs. Roger exclaimed that
she saw the actress, Daisy Wallace, |
everywhere. Her husband dropped his |
work, placed bandage over her eyes
and led her to his darkroom. He ar.
ranged a sensitive plate in position,
placed the box before it, removed the
bandage from his wife's eyes and urged |
her to look fxedly at the plate and
think intently Of the actress. She did |
this for four minutes. The plate was
then developed, and a picture OF Miss
easily recognizable by any.

SECURING IN CALVES.
Only About Ten Per Cent. of Those

Only About Ten Per Cent. of Those
Attacked Are Saved.
Securing in calves gives trouble on
al, and sometimes causes very serious
less on some farms. 1t is an infectious
dysentery in young animals, and fre-
quently less than ten per cent. of those
attacked are saved. The more general
trouble is known as white scours or gas
tro-enteritis, and most farmers have a
private remedy for it. A great thing is
to prevent scour if possible by the care
full changing of food and attention to
diet generally. On looking through the
COW houses on large Danish dairy
farm recently noticed that in the
troughs in the calf pens there were
always two Jumps for the animals to
lick. One was the customary piece OF
rock salt and the other piece of chalk.
To an inquiry, the learned professor
who had the farm under his direction
replied that it was to keep the calves
from becoming sour in the stomach.
He added that rock salt and chalk were
easily accessible, and the calves were
never or rarely troubled with the com
plaint which is SO prevalent on Ameri.
can farms. In all probability it may
be an old-fashioned precaution, known
to many people, as prepared chalk is
constituent of some remedies for
diarrhea and securing, but it is not
generally followed. 1t is easy of trial
and those who put it to test would do
well to relate their experience, favor.

RAILROAD INVENTION.
An Ingenious Device for Keeping
Ties in Good Condition.

Ties in Good Condition.
At cost of $7O,OOO,0OO per year, the
railroads of the United States employ
100000 men to look after about $780,
100000 ties. Earth or broken stones
are forced under the ties with tamping
irons where depressions are found
There are many objections to this crude
method. One is the breaking up of the
bed Of each tie disturbed. An inventor
now proposes to do the work with COM
pressed air. He believes he can accom-
plish it with a saving of $4,000, 900
worth Of time each year. His machine,
a Root blower, driven at the rate of 800
revolutions minute, is set on one rail
and has two little wheels on which it
can be trundled along. When in use it
is fastened to the rail by lever. It
it attached to'12 feet of hose, ending in
a metal feeder, with a hopper at the
top for broken stone, and bent end at
the bottom, which is placed under the
ties to direct the stream of filling.
None of the ballast between the ties
need be moved. A shovelful is removed
from one end of the raised tie until
the bent end of the hopper tube can be
poked under, The, filing material is
then blown in and packed tight by the
machine, Satisfactory experiments
have been made during the summer on
eastern railroads. A progress of sh
feet per hour Is shown, against c1s feet
by ordinary methods. N.PT y

ART IN ARCHITECTURE.

There is something very pleasing and
satisfactory in the thought of building
house which shall be our future home.
Doubtless there will be many petty an
noyances during the progress of the
building operations, which will try the
patience, but if the work is well done
these comparatively small troubles will
disappear when fairly settled in the
new house.
In designing dwelling of moderate
cost, comfort and convenience should
be the first important considerations.
With the majority of home-buiIders the
interior arrangement receives consider

of the house. Generally she cares little
for outward appearance, except that she
wishes it to look pleasing and comforta-
bly, homelike. She lives in the house,
and that is the part which receives the
most of her attention. Of course, there
are few who "live for show" and these
only are the ones who do not care about
the arrangement, "just so it looks nice
and attractive"
Utility should always be the first and
chief thing to consider in planning q
nome. If this is not so, it will come
far short of what is required of it. An
ugly building in the landst. pc is as
offensive to the eye as the unpleasant
odor to the nostrils. The exterior
