BY the electro magnetic telegraph an
operator can exactly locate a fracture in
submarine cable nearly 5000 miles long.
A few fossils sent to an expert geologist
enable him to accurately determine the
rock formation from which they are
taken. This he can describe as perfectly

ment of the skillful practitioner. This
method OF treating patients at distance,
by mail, has been so successful that there
is scarcely Il city or village in the
United States that is not represented by
one or more cases upon the records OF

not be treated in this way, which require
ment, or electrical therapeutics, receive
