Writers are led to shut UP wealth to
material and exchangeable things by the
simplicity which for certain purposes
such narrowing brings to the study This
motive comes out in the current esti-
mates of national wealth and of the
worlds wealth. When we place the

common made no effort to list wealth in
any other than material shapes

wealth must be both difficult and indeff-
mite. Of course, too, these estimates of
material wealth on the basis of exchange
have their utility. For the purpose of
comparing nation with nation and section

serviceable than the truth itself. Yet

Miss Haywood, the young lady who
has managed to get her name and her
face in the public papers because a
young fellow by the name of Henry was
so infatuated with her that he followed
her to Europe and then followed her
home again, is back in Chicago to enjoy
her notoriety. The convent in Windsor
was too dull for her. We do not under
stand why a beautiful young lady with
sufficient force to draw man across
the Atlantic and then draw him back
again should be immured in convent.

Mr.. Chamberlain thinks, or at least af-

Chamberlain own political evolution has

the official batter of the unhappy Beers

His task of suppressing the national as
pirations of the Irish he will probably
find to be about as tough proposition
as his determination to wipe the Boer off
the face of the earth.
We have never heard Joseph Chamber
lain described as the politician chosen
to do the dirty work of Lord Salisbury;
but the description Will be found to fit
him. His Irish and Boer programme
alike attest his Willingness to assume ana
discharge that function.
The ruffianism of the Irish in the Brit

sees it, is not all the product of native
brutality. Like Hamlet's madness, there s

that if, in the opinion of the Irish men,

greater and more offensive that it ever
did before, even under the leadership of
1reland'S uncrowned king.

Need of Beautiful Buiidin1s.
From Harper's Weekly.

We may learn In time that city cannot
afford ugly architecture any more than It
can afford insanitary conditions or made
quate transit facilities 1t is not wise to
underestimate the influence Of material
surroundings on our lives. Who has not
felt the depressing effect of a mean and
sordid environment, or the thrill of de-
light experienced on entering a noble build
Ing or standing amid the artistic spIen-
dors OF scene like that of the white
city at Chicago in 1893? Architectural
beauty Is one Of the chief sources of the
popularity and prosperity of such cities
as Paris, Berlin, Venice and Vienna It
Is worth millions to them. as their citizens
and rulers are well aware. Monuments
and fountains, esplanades and embank-
ments and arcades are there looked upon
as sound investment of the public funds.
The experience Of the Chicago and Omaha
expositions proves that the same thing is
true In this country. 1t is safe to say that
nine-tenths of their visitors found their
keenest pleasure and most vivid impress
sions to have come from the contemplation
of the magnificent architecture of these
fairs. It was this which drew and fasci-.
mated the crowds. far more than what was
to be seen within the buildings.

Photography Of Sound.
rom the Electrical Review, New York.


The invention Of the telegraphone seems
to have stimulated research upon possibili-
ties Of reproducing sounds. Among the
various methods of making records OF
sound vibrations none Is more accurate or
sensitive than that Of employing photog-
raphy; but hitherto no method OF repro
ducing sounds from these records has been
described. In German mechanical journal
Herr E. RUNNER describes a method OF
astonishing originality and beauty. He
photographs upon a continuous moving
roll or sensitive film speaking arc" or
arc containing telephone transmitter cir
cult In shunt, and reproduces the sound by
projecting light through this film on a
selenium cell in circuit with telephone re-
ceiver and a battery. OF course, every va
Ration produced in the transmitter circuit
and affecting the light emanating from the
arc Is photographed as alternate shadings
and lightenings on the film. and these light
variations impinging upon the sensitive Sc
lenium cause corresponding fluctuations in
it's resistance and reproduce the sound in
the receiving telephone with great accu-
racy. 1t is stated that the reproduction in
sensitiveness and clearness is superior to
that rendered by the Poulsen telegraphone.

Eating and Drinking.

Hrom inc LONDON Chronicle.
1t was Rabelais who said that he com.
posed his masterpieces while eating and
drinking. This was not so difficult as it
may appear, in point Of time and conven-
ience. when you consider that to eat and
drink all day long was the habit Of a lit
erary gentleman Of France in the sixteenth
century. Rabelais tells you that Panurge
never took a walk without a ham and a
fagon. comfortably bestowed about his
person; and this gives you picture Of the
philosopher and linguist pensively gnawing
a ham bone by the wayside and turning
frequently to the other counsellor that
touched his lips with wisdom. In these
days, the business of eating and drinking
is not 30 intimately associated with an
active mental life. Has not Lord Salisbury
