message. accompanied by the constant table rapping. but the invention promises to be one of the most used in years to come. It is said to be a great improve ment over the telephone and telegraph in many ways. It is claimed that in business both the telegraph and the tele- phone lack accuracy and privacy. while the telautOgraph overcOmes all these ob- jectiOns It Is declared to be absolutely secret, the line cannot be tapped and the message Is delivered directly to the per son for whom 1t Is intended. It Is self registering and makes two records, one fer the sender and another for the person to whom 1t Is addressed. The receiving instrument works automatically, and the addressee. if he is absent. finds the mes sage upon his return to his office, It can be operated by any person who Is able to write and will transmit the most rapid writing. Two instruments can be used for a simple private line between two par ties. and a number of the instruments can be arranged at various points to be connected with a switchboard to send and receive messages In a manner similar to the workings of the telephone from the central exchange. A third instrument may be added to a private line, on which may be made to appear all messages going In either direction on the line. The invention is probably one of the queerest and best of the past century.

~ HE telautOgraph Is the latest inFen- ton in the commercial adaptation of - electricity being a device which en- ables the transmission of a message, a re production of your own handwriting. in simultaneously. Not long ago a banker in Cleveland set at his desk in his office and wrote an order 10 a Chicago bank. using the new telautOgraph, and the order was received and reproduced in his own sigma ture at the Chicago bank as accurately as though the words had been written in Chicago.
 The new machine Is very simple. After 1t has been once installed, all you have to do Is to sit down to the instrument, take up the ordinary pencil attached to it, write the message on the paper pad. and instantly slender metal fingers begin to work up and down. similar to the an- ties of a jumping jack, apparently with random motions, and the letter will be transmitted as 1t Is written. An exact copy of the words and handwriting will be recorded by the metal fingers at the receiving pad as instantaneOusly as the click of the telegraph instrument flies from the sending to the receiving Instru- ment Distance Is of little matter and the writing at the other end will be re corded wherever the wires can be carried
 message from the new machine Is like receiving a mysterious spiritualistic

Queer Money. Q

TIT the present time all queer money
 H is counterfeit. But there have been numbers of instances in the past when many queer things have been used as currency in various places. The wam- pun of the Indian is, of course. well known from history. A long time ago. however. COWS were received in Masss- chusetts in payment of taxes But after a while this statute was revoked. as cows in all conditions of decrepitude were unloaded on the state.
 In Connecticut In the days of Indian troubles bullets were made legal tender, and each bullet was considered worth about half a cent. Tn this way each settler was almost certain to have a sup ply of bullets always on hand Up h Bos- ton at one time what was known as Afri- can iron was used as money, principally in the slave trade Twelve bars of this iron were considered worth, approximate ly. s5. It will be recalled, of course. that in Virginia and Marylnnd in the early days tobacco was given and received freely in payment of debts and taxes. In New foundlnnd dried cod was used in the same wny; in Canada, playing cards; in Mexico. salt; while in Scotland at one time nails were used.

At the Lunch Counter.

~ HE average man who eats his noon lunch at the lunch counter little - realizes the amount of brain and capital, time and energy involved in the preparation of that lunch He little thinks of the previous purchase of the articles which he procures at q very small price and their subsequent eyO!u- ton into the manufactured products. The baker baked his pastry through the night and turned over the kitchen to the cook sf A. Nj. Then starts the preparation for the noon lunch The average time taken by Q man for his lunch Is about 12 minutes, and yet a half and sometimes a whole day Is taken up with its prepara- ton.
 The marketing must be done each morning and many lunch counters have a special man for this work, one who knows tho methods of buying Gt the low est cost and where to procure the best bargains This buying could not be dona by a novice in the busine-s, or his restau- rant would last only a short tine. The cook must have his assistants. who work with him in preparation of the food and then sometimes aid in serving 1t to the customers This food must all be dis posed of within ubout two hours and brain work is required to have the right amount for each day.
 More customers can be expected or cer- tain days than others. as, for instance. on Monday, when the largest trade can be expected. On Saturday the trade Is ex- pected to fall Off 10 a great degree. many business houses closing at noOE during the summer and the men going home for their lunch. Then. again, at a lunch counter the customers are not always the game. special care is taken fin not serving the same kind of dish two days in sue cession, etc. Little do the noon lunchers realize the work, the method md the difficulties taken In preparing their l2- minnie lnnch

 ''If I feel that way about, how did I come to go? Huh That's easyl I'm wise now. I wasn't then! Of course, 1t may be all right for those who like 1t, but not for your Uncle William.

A Weather Prophet.

H the COW is weather prophet. and
 this can hardly be denied according to his statements. It is claimed that the approach of a storm causes a COW to show the fact by the diminution of her milk. There Is no reason why this should occur. but 1t is claimed to be q fact that the milk shows a certain falling on in quantity. sometimes ns much as a fourth of her usual amount. This rule does not apply so much in winter, but In the other three seasons 1t Is almost infnllib1e. and whenever dnirymun finds the daily sup ply suddenly diminished he knows that uud weather Is coming

Ships built of salt-seasoned tim ber get a better insurance rate. and some very rich woods are seasoned in oil, which Is hented to the boiling point. The latter process is nncient and costly. and the new way Is electrical seasoning, the sap be- ing driven from the wood and replaced by a solution of boraX md resin.
