e For Merely Royal Affairs.
Ampere. the famous mathematician
and physicist. was one OF the most alb

the following story from the Taeglichc
Rundschau goes far to prove:
In September, 1906. Ampere read q
learned paper on his researches before
the Academy OF Sciences in Paris
When he had finished his lecture and
was about TO take his seat he found t.
Ills surprise. that it was occupied
Greatly agitated. he went to Godfrey
Saint-Hilaire. the president of the
academy. and said. mfr. President,
must call your attention TO the fact
that some one who is not member of
this body has entered the chamber and
taken my seat"
The president replied calmly, You
are mistaken. my learned brother; the
person whom you have ia mind is, like
ourselves. fellow OF tn. Academy Of
Sciences"
How long. ! should like to ask?"
said Ampere.
-Since NivOse OF the year W." said
the president. who was now entering
into the humor OF the situation.

suspicious Anpere.

Much disturbed, Ampere made all
sorts or apologies and explained that
he had not recognized the emperor on
account OF his poor eyesight.
You see what happens" said Ma
poieon. when you don't get round to
meet your fellow members. have
never seen you at the Tuileries. But
now shall command you to come and
see me. Tomorrow at o'clock you will

The next evening the emperor wait

long since forgotten the invitation.

Recovery of Lost Handurit.po.

Recovery of Lost Handwriting.
Faded handwriting is perplexing to
anuquarians and lawyers and its re-
covery may be OF Importance. A recent
method depends on the fact that most
inks. even ancient inks, are acid In
reaction. Nitrated silver chloride paper
is Kept In contact with the faded text
tweive hours or more and then ex-
posed to full light. The action of the
acid in the Ink on the silver chloride
