Another Wonderful Invention.

A machine which the inventor
claims will do away almost entirely
with stenographers has just been per.
fected by Joseph A. Mccall, of Gin
cinnati. 1t is an automatic typewriter
attachment, run by electricity, which,
when it receives impressions from the
sound waves produced by the human
voice. will record and reproduce them
in printed characters on the paper in
the typewriter. The most wonderful
thing about the device is that the per.
son talking into it may talk in any
language he chooses and have the
letter written in that language. When
a word is spoken it causes a key to act
on small copper disc, which, in turn,
acts on the letters which make up the
word. The machine can be operated
by talking into it at any distance,
even over telephone. Though now
in its infancy, experts pronounce it
capable of unlimited possibilities.

TURNER CORNERS OREGONIAN
The Venerable Reservoir of Wisdom Contains
fungOid Growth.

In speech at Vancouver, on the
lVth inst, Judge Turner denounced as
mallciously false the statement in the
Portland Oregonian that he worked
Tor the railroads in the Constitutional
Convention of 1889. He proved the
| 'alsity OF the OreqOnian's assertion bv
reading from that papers own report
oil that convention.
The Oregonian OF August 1, 1889,
IuAted at considerable length a speech
made by Judge Turner in support Of
the proposition to create a railroad
commission by the constitution Just
the same as the office of Governor, or
any other office was created. This
proposition was the first move made
by the friends of a commission in the
convention.
Several days later the Oregonian
files show that Judge Turner offered
three amendments for the creation of
a railroad commission, all of which
were defeated.
On August 7. 1889, the Oreqonian
quotes Judge Turner as making Wig
orous speech denouncing the railroad
lobby and accusing the members of
the convention of changing their
minds on the commission question as
result 1T lobby influence. This
speech created great Indignation and
wrath On the part of the members,
who changed their minds, but ulti-

secrets OF health and longevity is the
secret OF how not TO take cold.

secrets OF health and longevity is the
secret OF how not to take cold.
Paradoxical as it may seem, a per-
son may suffer great deal from cold
without catching cold. Indeed, as
class of people who suffer most from
cold, catch cold the least. Generally
speaking, the people who catch cold
are not the people who live out of
doors, but the people who live in COM
Portable houses-not the people who
are poorly clad. Soldiers, sailors,
hunters, cabdrivers and other people
who live out of doors rarely have colds,
coughs, rheumatism or consumption.
The victims Of these diseases are the
people who wear lambs wool and chest
protectors and who sit all day by
steam coils in wind-proof houses.
The philosophy of taking cold is
like one cause of burglary. If man
habitually leaves his front door un-
locked it is only a matter of time
when some thief will enter the house
and loot in. In like manner, if per-
son habitually leaves the pores of his
skin open it will not be long before
the cold will enter through them and
set up irritation. This is something
the outdoor worker never does and
the house dweller is doing it all the
time.
1t seems TO be necessary to catching
cold that one part OF the body shculd
be colder than the rest of it. Ii a cold
wind blows through small opening
in window or door on person within
the house who is entirely comfortable
it will chill portion Of the body and
he will catch cold, while if the window
or door were thrown wide open and
the wind allowed to rush through he
might shiver or freeze, but he might
not take cold. In like manner a
person who is comfortable in bed on
cold night and whose shoulders or
limbs get from under the covers and
become chilled is good for an attack
OF rheumatism, though if he we're out
OF doors and walking in the snow in
his pajamas he might not take cold.
Chicago people are more apt to take
cold than people elsewhere on account
of the lake, the moisture from which,
when it comes ashore, aggravatcs the
heat of summer and the cold of win
ter. There is nothing more deadly
than our northwest wind if it is not
guarded against, but nothing more
refreshing to the man who has not
coddled himself with warm baths and
f1annels.
If a man is philosopher he ought
never to catch cold here or anywhere
else.

A Hudson river steamb Oat captain

and when he had piled the man at the

asked the reverend gentleman:
"Do you believe in predestination?"
"Of course l do" was the emphatic
reply.
"Then you believe that whatever

"Certainly."

But Is Not in the Least Surprising to West
ern People Used to Big Things.
The town of Belvidere, N. j., is suf.
fering from pumpkin plague" A
Belvidere correspondent for the New
York american tells the story in this
way: "Asher Brands, a huckster, who
has patch two miles up the Della
ware river from here, experimental
last year with new variety OF pump
kin, which grew as large as sugar bar
rels. He had them all ready for har-
vest, when the memorable freshet of
last October came along. uprooted his
vines and washed the fruit down the
river.
"By curious action OF the current,
the fruit was washed into the lower
section of this town. Most of the
pumpkins were smashed to pieces, and
the small portions and the seeds were
strewn in the most inconceivable
places.
Early this summer the seeds LOOK
root and vines soon sprung up. The
fruit has now grown to its full size,
and the scene presented is wonderful
one. In every direction great yellow
pumpkins can be seen, and in some
quarters it looks as though a county
fair was being held. Out of every con-
ceivable nook and crevice can be seen
vine bearing fruit. The public
streets are full of them, as are also the
door yards, gardens and cellars of the
citizens.
"Some vines sprang up in Josiah
Ketcham's coal bin and he has q bin
full of fruit tnow. The yard in the
rear of the Warren Journal Office looks
as though score of delinquent sub
scribers had been in settling up their
subscription accounts.
"Sharpie Mellick has a couple OF
vines running up the side OF his house,
and the parlor window is resting
place for two pumpkins, either OF
which will weigh thirty pounds.
"Pumpkin pie is the latest thing In
Belvidere now, and housewives are
putting up enough stewed pumpkin to
last for several years"

THE PHILOSOPHY OF COLDS.
I" A Cold" is the Prolific Source of Many Ser

Chicago News.

According to the City Health De-
partment coughs, cold and the grip
are more prevalent in Chicago than
usual and the department calls on the
people to be on their guard against
contracting these diseases.
A cold, which is more properly a
fever produced by cold, is one of the
most dangerous ailments that human
nature has to grapple with. 1t comes
somewhat mysteriously, it sometimes
resists all sorts of treatment and when
it can not be checked it is as apt to
cause death as any other malady what
ever. 1t leads to so many other dis
eases that it does not get credit for all
the damage it does, and still when the
history OF the illness OF any man who
dies is given it generally begins with
a statement that on a certain day he
took cold. One of the most valuable

d" Sleepy Grass"

The Government is an indefatigable
pursuer OF new ideas. With view Of
ascertaining something definite on the
subject the department has planted a
plot of "sleepy grass" (Possifora IN
cornata), noted for its sopohoric quail
ties. Both the root and seeds, as we'll
as the grass itself, will be analyzed in
order to find out what the sleep-mak-
ing substance is. The plant flourishes
in the Southern States. The root is
dried, powdered and soaked in alcohol.
1t is said to be a wonderful nerve
soother and sleep producer, has no
reaction, does not engender a habit
and will therefore be practically valu-
able in the treatment of insomnia and
nervous disorders.
