The Mirror Ga1vanOmeter.

Some interesting tales are told Of
Lord Kelvin'S discoveries and how the
ideas of them came to his quick mind.
For instance. this is said to have been
the way in which he found the mirror
galvanOmeter. He was puzzling over
the difficulty Of perfecting the ordinary
telegraphic apparatus used on over
head wires, which was not suited for
the varying current passing along ca
bles. The tagging OF the electric cur
rents had the effect Of making them
run together into one bottom current.
with surface ripples which correspond
to the separate signals of the message.
The problem was how to invent a
means Of interpreting clearly and cas-
lily all the delicate fluctuations. One
day Lord Kelvin's eyeglass fell off and
swung in front of the magnet, reflect
ing it's movements, and instantly the
idea of the mirror suggested itself. So
a monocle has had a direct effect on
science.

In some respects one of the most re-
markable war photographs ever made
was secured by q man named Meyer, a
correspondent for German illustrated
newspaper, during the war in South
Africa Meyer was with the Beers,
and one day, during one Of Buffers at
tacks along the Tugela. he took posi-
ton on the firing line. The fire from
the British batteries across the river
was very heavy during the preliminary
part of the assault, and shells literally
rained on the low lying kopjes occu-
pied by Botha's army. Meyer thought
he saw a good opportunity to secure
fine picture, and he jumped out Of his
''schanZe" to snap it.
Just then big liddite shell exploded
within a few feet of him, killing him
instantly. | afterward secured the
camera, which was comparatively I'M
injured. When the film it contained
was developed l discovered that Meyer
had made a beautiful photograph Of
the huge shell which snuffed out his
life. I sent copy of the picture to
his residence i'll Germany Every

BLENDING and ROASTING.

When the berry is properly aged
and cured it is ready for roasting.
We have perfected process of
roasting which produces remark
able results and as our coffees have
been blended before roasting they
flavor perfectly during this proc
ess. There is a big difference
between Mixers of coffees and
Blenders of coffees. Anyone
can mix coffees, but blending
cohees is an art and a lifelong
study. The Bender of Dudley's
Coffees has a national reputation.
In fact, he has received his fourth
appointment as Inspector of coffees
for the United States Government.
It's all in the Blend"

IF One Standard Il Estaoiished, why Not
the Othero

IF One Standard Il Estaolished, why Not
the Other:
Why Should not the protective tariff
policy be as ''trniy and irrevocably
stablished'' as the Democratic party
ard its candidate Tor the presidency
comedies the gold standard to be?
The gold standard was advocated by
the Republican party. and on this issue
the country went Republican by an
yerWhelming ma jority. The question
of tariff or free trade and tariff reform
and revision, has been the issue in sew
eral national campaigns. and the peo-
pie by their votes decided finally that
the protective tariff principle should
prevail and that this country should be
recognized as favOring and supporting
protection and rot free trade. The
Democratic party was placed in power
and given the opportunity of demon
strating the fallacy of it's free trade or
tariff for reyenue-Only policy, and the
result was so disastrous that the peO-
pie gladly returned to protection at the
first opportunity. and refused to EN-
PERTINENT WITH FREE SILVER.
The legislation by congress fixing the
gold standard was accordance with
the demand of the people, as expressed
by their votes. They, the people, have
just as firmly expressed their prefer
ence for protection. Neither currency
nor tariff legislation is so firmly enact
ed that the laws could not be changed
by congress if the people demanded
their revision. ard the only reason that
the Democratic party is attempting to
make the tariff an issue in this cam
paign is that they hope the people have
forgotten their sad experience under
the Wilson German Democratic tariff
bill. After the votes are counted in
November. the Democrats will find
that the people who by their votes rule
this country consider the protective
policy as we'll as the gold standard
firmly and irrevocably established as
