northwestern than in the eastern part.
Some Of the cit!cs on the Atlantic
coast have been forced to grow north
and west because of the water front on
the east and south, but many other
places have had equally attractive sur
roundings on all sides, but have de-
yeloped in the North and west direc-
tons. One reason for this drifting OF
population may be due to imitation,
which is one of the characteristics OF
American people. The many thousands
who have moved west from New Eng
land and the middle states may have
followed the custom of their ancestors
in picking out the northwest simply
from custom, as they have initiated the
eastern part of the country in other
ways. There is also a possibility that
in choosing places for living Americans
have, unconsciously, perhaps, endeav-
pred to follow the example of London.
The West end is famous throughout the
world as the fashionable quarter of the
British metropolis, and undoubtedly
the same term which is used to desig-
nate fashionable centers in American
cities has been borrowed from across
the water.-N. Y. Sun.

Secret Of the Telephone Discovery.
Professor Alexander Graham Bell ie
reported to have explained in a lecture
how he came to invent the telephone as
follows:
my father invented q symbol by
which deaf mutes could converse, and
sfnally I invented an apparatus by
which the vibrations of speech could be
seen, and it turned out to be a tele
phone. It occurred to me to make 8
machine that would enable n to hear
vibrations. I went to an aurist, and he
advised me to take the human ear az
my model. He supplied me with a dead
mans ear, and with this ear I expert.
mented, and upon applying the appa'
ratus I found that the dead mans cal
wrote down the vibrations.
II arrived at the conclusion that if ]
could make iron vibrate on a dead
mans ear I could make an instrument
more delicate which would cause those
vibrations to be heard and understood.
I thought if I placed a delicate piece OF
steel over an electric magnet I could
get a vibration, and thus the telephone
was completed.
"The telephone arose from my at.
tempts to teach the deaf to speak. II
arose from my knowledge. not Of cleo
tricity,| but as q teacher Of the deaf.
Had I been an electrician I would moi
have attempted it. "-Electrical World
