Printing By x,Ray

Dr.. Frederick S. Kolle describes. IN
the Electrical Engineer. a process Of
printing by the aid OF the x ray,
which. he thinks. may supersede some
Of the present methods. He calls II
typo-radiography. One way to pre-
pare the original copy is to print the
text with adhesive ink, and then dust
metallic powder over It, which will
remain only on the printed charac-
ters. The copy is next bound up with
about fifty t~hicknesses Of sensitized
paper and subjected to the action OF
the Roentgen tube. Twenty blocks Of
nifty sheets each. DR.. Kolle says. can
be arranged simultaneously around q
single tube. thus producing a thousand
copies OF the original with about tra
seconds exposure.

A Canadian minister had just married n

nothing remained but the giving and
taking OF the fee. The bridegroom, a
strapping young fellow, asked, "How
much is it?'
The parson glanced at the smiling bride
and slyly answered, Whatever you think
it's worth. :"
Now, it should have been worth a good
deal, for the girl was young and pretty.
81 reckon it's worth about 80 cents" said
the swain, holding out two quarters.
The clergyman looked bankly at the
coins, then turned to the fair one. "I'l
leave it to you madam he said. "What
do you think it's WORTH"
What did this young bride do? She
reached out, took the coins, handed one
quarter to the minister and put the other
into her pocket.

a sigh, is her husbands crown"
