resembling lightning which spread
wonder and terror among his subjects.

AN ANCIENT TELEGRAPH.
Used by Grecian Generals In the
Time of Aristotle.

Time of Aristotle.
Telegraphy as means of conveying
Information to distance by means of
signals, etc, was used by the Greclan
generals In the time of Aristotle This
early mode OF telegraphing consisted
of two or more earthen vessels, eX-
actly similar in shape and size and fill
ed with water These vessels We're
each provided with faucets of exactly
the same callber so That an equal
amount of water could be discharged
from each In a given time.
In these vessels several uprights
were fixed, each with disks attached,
on which were certain letters and sen
fences. When all was in readiness
the party desiring to communicate
with another started Il signal, which
was continued until 1t was answered
by another which signified 'go ahead. !"
When that signal was given both turn
ed the faucets, and the water com
menced to escape. The water contln-
ued to flow until the sender OF the
message relighted his torch. when the
outlet to both was instantly stopped
The receiver then read the message on
the disk which was standing level with
the water. and II everything had been
executed with exactness 1t correspond
ed with the message which the sender
desired to convey, and which of course
was the one also shown on the disk
standing ON a level with the water In
