The orlrin Of the COMPASS.

The origin of the compass is UNI
doubtedly to be ascribed to the Chi
nese, who more than a thousand years
B. C. made use OF thelodestoneto guide
their cars or carriages without the aid
of the sun and stars. It is certain that
they employed the magnetic needle in
the navigation of vessels soon after
the Christian era, II not earlier. There
is, indeed, every reason to believe that
the mariners compass was not an
original European invention, but was
introduced from China. None of the
early European writers speak of it as
having been invented in Europe; and
it is certain that the compass used by
the Italians in the 18th century was
constructed exactly like those made in
China about the same period.

curious effect q = lIrhtnIng Flash.


The following story, printed in the
Electrical World, describes an unusu-
ally complicated case Of cause and
effect, and demonstrates the danger OF
keeping loaded firearms near tele-
phone receivers: In the town Of Batey-
vile, in southern Louisiana, A. Gaut-
ieaux conducts n store dealing in
diversified merchandise. Mr.. Gaut-
reaux has his store equipped with q
doubla-barrelled shortgun and n tele-
phone. Tho combination seems 10
have worked we'll until the other day,
when a thunderstorm passed over Ba-
teyville, and a lightning bolt made its
way into the store over the telephone
wire. The electricity leaped from the
transmittsr to the shortgun and caused
the discharge of both it's barrels.
Two heavy charges of buekshot be-
took themselves through the side Of
the building, narrowly escaped a group
Of men gathered for shelter to the lee :
ward of the store, and proceeded into
the landscape. The episode would
ordinarily have ended here, but a Mr..
2. Ayre, in a neighboring shed, much
] startled by the explosion Of the gun,
in his excitement and alarm grasped
with frantic clutch a rapidly re-
volving buzz.saw near which he was
working, and as q result lost several
fingers and severely mangled both
hands.

There is a little truth and a great deal

woman suffers severely she needs
treatment, and her mother should see
that she gets it.

the most efficient advice without

had headache all the time, and pain in
her side, feet swell, and was generally
miserable. Mrs. Pinkham promptly
replied with advice, and under date of
March, 1899, the mother writes again
that Lydia Z. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound cured her daughter of all
pains and irregularity.
