Modern Inventions.

Modern Inventions.
Chance phrases in the literary works
Of other days describe with uncanny
exactness inventions Of far later times.
For instance. we find in the 'Prolu-
sions" Of Strada the Roman, which
were published in the year 1917. what
might be held to embOdy a crude de
scription of wireless telegraphy.
Strada represents two friends as car
rying on a correspondence by means Of
certain loadstone which has such
virtue in it that, if it touches two nee
dies when one of the needles begins Ia
move. the other, although at ever so
great a distance. moves at the same
time and in the same manner
In 1874 Robert Hooke published a
work wherein he observed that as
glasses improve the vision so ways
might be found to improve our other
senses. 1T is not impossible" says he,
ito hear n whisper distance Of fur
long. and perhaps the nature of tho
thing would not make it impossible al.
though that furlonG should be ten times
multiplied" This seems to be a fair
forecast of the telephone.
In "Gulliver's Travels" Swift causes
his hero to relate in the voyage TO La
puta that the astronomers there have
likewise discovered the two lesser stars
or satellites which revolve about Mars
This has been held to constitute Il sa-
tire on sham science. Nevertheless
Professor Asaph Hall few years ago
discovered the two tiny satellites.
1t was more than LOO years ago
that Lucian gave an account OF the
manner wherein the inhabitants OF the
moon drank AIR squeezed or compress

MORNING STOCK LETTER.

New York, Jan. 1.-THE London
market this morning as to American
stocks does not show any particularly
striking recuperative powers. There
seems to be considerable anxiety In
the European capitals as to today's de-
days decision by the grand council.
AS to the newspaper comment, we
notice disposition to become rather
conservative, especially so in quarters
that were screechingly optimistic a
short time ago, and they may be just
as wrong now as they were then.
1t is now said that the progressive"
speech of the president-elect will be
his last deliverance prior to the inaug-
uration.

Keeps on Winning.
There are only two games played at
Monte Carlo-roulette aud simple
card game called trente ct quarante
one is assured that these games are
played quite fairly and that the per
centage in favor OF the bank is 81 to
60. Whatever it may be- this certain
percentage in favor of the tables over
comes all systems that human ingenuity
can work out by any law of averages
NJ. Blanc will permit you TO play any
way you like. and TO double your bet
as often as you like until il reaches
5000 francs at roulette or 10000 francs
at trente ct quarante. Then yOu must
begin over again. for it Is quite clear
that if one were permitted to double
indefinitely it would only be a ques-
ton Of time and sufficient money to
put N. Blame out of business
Thus it happens that NJ. Blanc. who
takes no chance. wins against all those
who are permitted to take any sort of
chance they like. Sir Hiram Maxim
disposed OF all systems when he shat
tered popular deluSion in these words:
If red has come up twenty times iE
succession it is just as likely to come
up at the twenty-frst time as it would
be IL it had not come up before for a
