Transmitting Photographs.

A new method of transmitting pho.
tographs to a distance has recently
been devised. A gelatine negative is
used, in which the picture is formed
in relief. A stylus travels over the
uneven surface of the negative and
operates a rheostat in the main line.
At the receiving station a luminous
ray plays over a sensitized plate, and
the intensity of it's light is varied by
the rheostat. The reliefs and hollows
of the original are thus reproduced in
light and shadow on the sensitized
medium, and form the picture. This
method of transmitting pictures was
recently tried with success on the line
between Paris and Lyons.

a New Electric Clock.

An interesting electric clock, run
ny a single dry cell and quite indie
pendent of external connection, has
just been put on the market in Eng
land. A heavy balance wheel is kept
in motion by an electric magnet,
mounted Numerically across it. AS
the balance wheel swings against
the action of the coiled spring, stud
on the axle makes contact with
light spring, this completing the cleo
trio circuit and energizing the mag
net, which acts for a moment upon
the balance wheel. This impulse is
given once every four seconds. 1t is
said, that dry cell will run the clock
for 1000 consecutive hours. The
movement is noiseless. and the clock
may be placed in any position without
interfering with it's running.-Youths

Mrs. Geo. Miles, of Prescott, Wis
consin, June II, 1910.
Tender, strong and beautiful was
this life on earth. Great indeed was
the soul in its simplicity, that soul
that reached forth such willing, help
full hands, that thought such loving
deeds to do, that looked forth from
such calm, steady eyes, that spoke
through such soft gentle voice.
Always busy about her "Master's
business" in her home and neigh
borhood, making loyal friends, whom
she, in her turn never failed; rejoic-
ing in her "mother's crown" of sons,
daughters and grandchildren.
Her husband died about eleven
years ago, having celebrated their
golden wedding the previous year.
Her dear friends and neighbors out
at the old Home in the "Valley"
and here where Mr.. and Mrs.
Hammond lived at one time, are SO
many of them gone before her.
And now she too, after months of
acute suffering, has gone home.
"Blessed are the dead who die in
the Lord and right well did she
love and serve her Lord.

rest in the cemetery at Glass Valley,

MAKING Meal-Tinne Pleasant.


A Harlem mother has struck upon
a plan which adds greatly to the gen.
eral good humor of the household
over which she presides. A son works
with his father down town, and there
are three girls and boy in school.
At dinner every night each member
of the little circle must tell the fun
niest incident in his or her personal
experiences of the day Tried as an
experiment, the idea has been made
permanent, and it provides barrel
of fun every "a hours. 1t also has
increased the powers of observation
of every member of the family, and
now the plan finds a natural develop
ment in a scrapbook in which the
pick of the crop of stories is jotted
down.
