smokinq In Berlin Streets.

Before May 23, 1882, no smoking was allowed in the streets or parks of Berlin, and offenders were punished by fine for the>frst 1nfraction of the rule and by imprisonment afterward. The king of Prussia in those days de tested smoking, and the police and the military men were under strict orders to arrest any one who dared to smoke in public. It is recorded that when Napoleon occupied Berlin a hundred years ago the Berliners eagerly took advantage of the opportunity to smoke and took a special delight in puf1ng smoke in the faces of the police, who had then no power to arrest them. In .832, however, the restriction was withdrawn.

the story of Halls unsuccessful
wooing of Mary Travers and his
hatred for Vincent Blaine, her
hance. When her aunt died
Mary was to marry Blaine. Till
then she would not leave her.
And the lovers had been engaged
five years.
Better leave her alone, Mr..
Hall" said the old lawyer. In his
heart sniouldered a contemptuous
hatred for the man; he would
gladly have dispensed with him
for a client, for he did not relish
the sort of work he would be call
ed upon to do. But he held his
peace, knowing that, if necessary,
he could checkmate Halls evil
designs.
'What is the value of Travers
house?'' asked Hamilton.
Easily twelve thousand dol
lars, in its present state" the law
yer answered. And, anticipating
the next question, he continued,
AT a fair rentalit should bring
thousand dollars. +"
Then she owes me twenty
thousand dollars" thought Hall.
But what he said was: 'My uncle
must have been mad"
Mary Travers was prettier than
ever, in Halls eyes. When he
saw her enter the old-fashioned
drawing room a fame of jealousy
of Blaine burned in his heart.
Mingled with his passion was a
sense of amazement that Mary
should have chosen a poor man,

was a good man and an old friendI7
of my aunt's. 1 am sorry, Mr.. Z
Hail." d
''Well, that's more than I am, s
by long odds," Hall answered. 2
Don't you know that I've fallen d
heir to everything he had? Yes,
and l find that I'm worth cool
eight hundred and fifty thousand
at the lowest estimate. Now,
Mary, l want you to be sensible.
Be my wife. Don't be infatuated
by that man Blaine. He's a good,
honest toiler, no doubt, but he'll
never be anything.
'Mr. Hall" said Mary rising,
Il cannot hear any more
What, you won't marry me

fronting him. with blazing eyes.

''Then why don't you marry
Blaine?" sneered Hamilton Hall.
And, as she did not answer, he
continued:
81 tell you why. You're wait
ing until your aunt dies so as to
get her property. But it isn't hers
its mine. My uncle owned itn
all the time, for the conveyance4
was faulty. The title is frauduIi

jeets for a considerable distance, and
viii travel at least 20 miles, so that
they could be received and recorded
by a suitable apparatus at that dis
tance, and would be able to travel
at least i've miles and send back to
the ship a reflected echo that would
be stro1g enough to be detected"
Sir Hiram point out that In pro
viding a ship with a sixth sense,
three distinct devices must be com
bined: one for producing and sending
out the necessary sound waves, one
for receiving the reflected waves and
making them audible by ringing bells
and another apparatus for recording
the amplitude Of the waves. Here Is
his description of the apparatus he
has invented;
For producing the vibrations of
waves | prefer to use modified form
of siren, the disk being rotated at a
suitable speed by a motor Of some
kind, preferably an electric motor.
The Southern herald., 1912-10-04

But just as soon as darkness set in
and the captain began to suspect
that icebergs or other dangerous OBJ
jects were close at hand, it would be-
come useful. OF its operation under
such circumstances Sir Hiram says:
1T should be used constantly send
ing out the blasts in every direction
If the sea were perfectly clear, the
blasts sent out would be recorded at
the very instant of their production,
but no echo would be returned other
than that due to the waves of the sea,
which would provide a zigzag line OF
small amplitude; but If there should
happen 10 be an object of any con.
siderable size at a distance no greater
than two or three miles, the zigzag
line on the paper would be changed,
the amplitude Of the waves would be
greater and would be very noticeable
ITO make sure, the blasts could be
repeated several times; and then, II
the result should be always the same
it would indicate the presence of some
object, and the length of paper be
tween the primary blast and the echo
would indicate the distance that the
object was from the ship. 1t might
be SO arranged that one inch OF paper
represented a mile.
THE receiving instruments can b,
placed anywhere on the ship wher,
they can be turned in the same di
rection that the siren is turned, ant
there may be as many Of them al
desirable"
Sir Hiram points out that there ar,
vastly more accidents to ships cause,
by running ashore than by collision
and that coast does not need to pre-
sent very bold sea front to produc,
very strong echo" on his appara
tus. II ship provided with his ar
paratus was approaching the coast O
Ireland, he says. the echo would b.
sufficiently strong to show itself owe
! a distance Of at least ten miles.
