New Method of News Distribution

unique device, which spreads the
latest local and foreign news through
out the city in less than 10 minutes
after the central news office receives
it, is in existence at Budapest, Hun
gary.
The instrument of dispatch is
called the talking newspaper" and
it is neither public photograph nor
news sheet, hurriedly distributed.
1t is sort of telephone news service
and is the only thing of its kind in
the world. Working in connection
with the associated newspapers of the
city, a central Office has been estab-
lished, which is the core of this curl
GUS system. At the first hint of news

mentso hnFc6T all of the newspaper
ofies Oct. al telephone office is
calie - atever the news is,
from r. the bureau is adj
vised o. all The bureau agent
then rings his signal, and this signal
calls to his special news telephone at
the same instant every subscriber in
Budapest. After reasonably long
interval, long enough to allow SUBJ
scribers to get to their receivers, the
dispatch is slowly and distinctly read
at the central Office, and the subscrib-
ers all over the city stand listening to
the same voice.
In order to have the service in
stalled in the house one has to be in
the first place, subscriber to a news
paper. Upon showing his subscrip-
ton receipt he may, at small addi-
ttonal cost, have the news telephone
put in. This instrume nt is composed
merely of a pair of receivers and a
call bell. 1t is hung on the wall and
has sufficiently long wires to allow the
listener to sit comfortably in his chair
with one of the small receivers at
each ear.
A large percentage of the private
residences in Budapest, and all of the
hotels and cafes, are wired with the
telephone news service, and the re-
eetvers seem to be always hanging on
some ones ears.

Underwood opened the door and
Howard entered jauntily.
Hello, fellers, how goes it?" was
his jocular greeting.

dozen drinks had been absorbed,
and he had spent the whole of SIS

went on:

Underwood was not in the humor
to be very gracious. Long ago young
Howard Jeffries had outgrown his use

Underwood did not conceal his an.

to count in the treatment of critical cases It is related of the immortal author of La Comedie Romaine," that, when pr. Nacquart told him In his last illness that there was no hope, he murmured mourn fully, If only had Bianchon he would save me-" And Bianchon was the medical hero of one of Balzac's works. who stud jed the subtle powers and mysteries of mind as well as body. It may have been a prophetic note from that master mind of France which the modern mindis now at work upon. But certainly if there be anything in 1t. more use should be made of 1t by the trusted physicians who hold the mental as well as physical pow CTS of their enfeebled patients so large ly in their stronger hands.
 Meantime. if those who have the gen. eral health of complex humanity at heart professionally or otherwise, are not to bungle the matter after the fashion of the embarrassed young Christian Endeav- orer, who prayed in an aiing community. "Oh Lord, make the well sick" some compact with the mental forces of health and healing seems absolutely essential. Only learned scientists, like Prof. Elmer Gates, perhaps, may show the direct ef- 'ect of the happy or depressing thought or mood upon the bodily cells and life currents. but any commonest observer of his own or anothers case can trace the direct connection between cheerfulness

High Court Strikes
at Litigation Cost

WASHINGTON. Dec. 2S-As sort Of
a Christmas gift to future litigants the
supreme court today before adjournlng
for the Christmas holidays amended it's
rule with view OF reducing the cost OF
litigation.
The amendments had to do with the
size Of records brought to the court from
subordinate tribunals. The printing OF
the record alone in one case before the
court IN recent years amounted to $4,000.
The court took advantage of the ne
cessity Of amending the rules in connec-
tion with the going into effect on jan
uary l OF the new judicial code 70 strike
at the high cost of litigation. Several
amendments were necessary to meet re-
duirements OF the new code, principally
due to the passing OF the circuit courts.
Because OF the new code the court en-
tered another order extending the present
equity rule to the court provided for by
the new code. In announcing this order
Chief Justice White said the old equity
rules would be enforced until rules now
being framed could be completed.
When the court adjourned until Janu-
ary s It had established a record for the
number of cases heard before the holi-
days. Practically as many cases had been
argued so far this term as were argued
during the entire last term. extending
to June /.
The justices now have under considera-
tion 100 cases. This probably is a greater
number than at any other time in the
