It A FINE INVENTION NEW TELEPHONE MARVEL EXHIBITED IN LONDON By Which Speaking and Hand- writing May Be Transmitted Simultaneously and With Little Trouble. London, July 24.--The mmrvel of the telephone has become common- pice through daily usage. F in" tefest, however, is likely to be arous in its wonderful possibilities by a l.new invention, of which a demonstra- tion has just been witnessed in this city. The * inventor is a German, Herr Gustav Grzanna, and his mission to | this country is an outcome of the new patent laws. His marvelous ap- paratus has already been exhibited in Germany, where it has aroused pro- found interest. Herr Grzanna can transmit hand: writing, sketches, etc., over ha ordin- ary telephone wire for very consider- able distances and within the period of a few seqonrls, thus making a con- siderable advance on the old system of electric writing at a distance. He uses a low tension ' current--viz., twelve volts--in the transmitting and receiving boxes. His apparatus can be made an auxiliary of common tele- phonic communication, and, therefore, its commercial utilization is ready to hand. ' Herr Grzanna's messages are pas through as fast as they are written, and the transmitter uses the pencil naturally. Other systems require somewhat laborious' handling of the transmitting mechanism, so that it takes about half an hour to send and receive even a short sentence. In fa the Grzanna instrument is the auto- graphic double of the voice in tele phonic communication. One gan actu- ly speak and write or draw at the me time through the same wires, the telephone being connected with the apparatus through a condenser of two microfarads. Sav an engineer is ordering material by telephone from a manufacturer. He can furnish plans of the bolts, plates, rails, etc., which he requires. Simi- larly a newspaper artist can sketch an event on the spot--a railway disas- ter, for instance--and transmit it to Ws editor hundreds of miles away, ae- companying it with a verbal descrip- tion as he draws; or. Mf the corre- stontlent be a reporter, he can make of a photograph by tracing its outlines. In military operating the enemy's movements as they unfoll themselves can be wired back to head- quarters. This wonderful system of telegraphy is accomplished by means of a light | ray travelling over sensitised: paper. {The graphite pencil at the transmitter tend has two electric contacts, one for horizontal and the other for vertical movement, a curve being made up of the component parts of one or the other. On taking the pencil from off its rest a tiny electric glow lamp in [ths yeceiver box is illhwminated.

They help a woman just when nature makes the test demand up- on her blood . They have done this for thou of women through- out Canada, why not for yoy? Mrs. Joseph Kinmey, Gilterv's Cove, N.S., says: "For ten years I suffered from nervousness and - those troubles that make the lives of so many wo- men one of almost constant misery. At times I would be confined to my bed for weeks. I spent sleepless nights and seemed to lose all courage. I tried several doctors but they failed to give me any relief. The last doctor 1 consulted told me frankly that he could not understand my case unless I would uni 0 an examination, 1t was then T decided to give Dr, Williams' Pink Pills a trial. After taking six boxes 1 was much improved in health, but 1.continued to take (the Pills for a couple of months more when J felt like a new woman, and was enioying such: health as I had not experienced for ten years ore. 1 have had mo have used thé Pilla once since that timefor the after effects of la grippe and the result was all 1 hoped for. These are plain facts from my own experience and 1 have always felt that [ cannot too strongly recommend Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to the many wo- men who suffer as I did." You can get these Pills from any dealer in medicine or by mail at 50c. a box of six boxes for $2.60 from The Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. CLEAN WATCHES WITH BREAD pn Forty Loaves Are Used Each Day at Elgin, NIL. Perhaps the most novel use to which bread is put may be seen in the great watch factories at Elgin, 111, where more than forty loaves of fresh bread are required each day. George E. Hunter, superintendent of the watch factory, is quoted in the Am- erican Food Joumal as saying : "From the earliest times in the his- tory of watchmaking, it has been the custom of watchmakers to reduce fresh bread to the form of dough. This is done by steaming and knead: ing. They then use this dough for re- moving oil and chips that naturally adhere in course "of manufacture to pieces as small as the parts of a watdi.

The ocantaloupes are quick ripeners and one might go through a patch one day and not find a single melon sufficiently advanced to be piek- ed, and vet the very next morning e patch might show enough ripe ns to fill thikty or forty crates. "The ipal harvesting time for is from the latter part : $he 1st of October, depending upon Bx posure to frost puts an abrupt end the existence of ocantaloupes. The melons are picked in "the morning, crated and then rempved to the re frigerator cars or place of shipment in the cool of the evening. When pick- ed for the eastern market the melons are removed from the vines before they are fully ripe. "While the Rocky Ford melons de- rive their name from the town of that name, yet as a matter of fact the melons are grown in many other sec- tions of Otero county, irrigated by the waters of the upper Arkansas river, The principal ppint of shipment, how- ever, is at Rocky Ford, and at the height of the season--the latter part of August--from forty to fifty car- loads daily are sent away. "But everybody who owns a patch of land in that vicinity devotes a cer- tain part of it to the raising of the cantaloupe, and through the raising of this one kind of fruit the land along the Arkansas valley, which fif- teen years ago was worth but from $6 to $10 an acre, has now advanced in value to $300 in certain cases. "The soil is wonderfully'productive, and in good seasons the average pro- duction of cantaloupes an acre will be frome 100 to 125 standard crates, cach of which will contain about forty-five melons, For these the 'producer will receive from Bc. to $1 a crate, and always reckons upon his-acreage vield- ing an average of $75. "Spme years a cantaloupe: grower will raise what he terms a seed crop, although the wise grower will always reserye his fihest melons for seed. The growers, while all of them must buy sees] for the first year, even afterward make it a ppint to save enough from each year's crop to answer the needs of the next year.

A romantic courtship came to a happy climax in Philadelphia when Lient. William Fortescue Sells," of H. M.S. Wildfire, married Mrs. Alice Augusta Bayley. He had only two weeks' leave in which to make the Atlantic passage, marry, and return to his ship, The romance commenced: in the lieutenant's boyish days, when he was a friend of Miss Alice Cornish, then a lassie' in the Isle of Wight, where her home adjoined that of the lientenant's parents. At eighteen, however, she married Col. Bayley, commanding an English cavalry regi- ment. A few -yeaws afterwards Col. Raviey was accidentally killed: on a rifle range. At the end of a year Lieut.

There are three seed houses at Rocky Ford whose sole business con- sists of hanflling cantaloupe seed. "Recently some of the cantaloupe growers started to raise a new variety of cantaloupe, which is a cross between a muskmelon and a canteloupe and bears the name of muskaloupe, or sal- mon melon, the inside of which is a red yellowish color. One grower, last vear, near Rocky Ford, planted a patch of several acres in the new mel- on for a seed crop. This was done on the 'order of a Californian. Eight hun- dred pounds of the seed of the new melon were produced, for each pound of which the Rocky Ford grower re- ceived 40c. The Californian in return received $2 a ppund for the seed the greater portion of which he disposed of in California." eee Pharaoh The Oppressor. Century Magazine.

From the Britannid. lasmania has long been known as the apple lard of the south, but few at home have any real idea of the money that cen be made, and is being made. out of apple growing in that island. Last year, for instance, there were many small orchards in the south which returned as much as 1,200 bush- els to the acre, and one owner of four acres, who picked over 4,000 bushels of marketable fmnit, which he sold at 4s. per bushel, reaped a gross of £800. As his expenses at the ouf- side would not be more than £100, his profit per acre worked out at something like £175. Of course this was gn extreme case, but orchards of twenty acres an upward averaged fallv 500 bushels per acre, and yi a clear net profit of quite £1,500 in vach case.
