Weekly Review of Trade and Latest
Market Reoorti
i fELEPHONE USED
! FOR WRITING, TOO.
Br a list root's says:
"The advance of the fall season
and the notable enlargement of the
movement of cereals and cotton to
market at good prices have made
a further moderate expansion In Job
bing and retail trade and collections.
This Is especially marked at West
ern, Pacific Coast and Southern cen
ters, but the point Is made that ag
ricultural sections have done better
relatively than large industrial cities
In the matter of retail trade, possi
bly because of warm weather, or the
reduced purchasing power of city
workers and the high prices paid
for farm products. Industries, too,
have shown some Improvement, no
table In this respect being coal nnd
lumber Interests. There Is an In
crease also reported In blnst furnace
capacity and there is more doing at
the paper mills. In the textile trades
little change is noted, and while the
fall demand for dry goods, millinery
and kindred lines has Improved, the
consensus of reports is that buying
Is frequent rather than heavy, and
conservatism rules purchasing.

Simultaneous writing and speaking
by telephone Is made possible by the
wonderful invention of Gustave Grz
anna, of Germany, who has been
demonstrating his Instrument In
London. With the Grzanna tele
phone, handwriting, sketching, etc.,
can be transmitted over an ordinary
telephone wire for very considerable
distances In a few seconds. Thlf
means a great Improvement on the
old system of electric writing at a dls
ance, which was slow and clumsy.
Messages on the Grzanna system
are passed through as fast as they are
written. One can actually speak and
write or draw at tho same time
through the same wires, the tele
phone being connected with the ap
paratus (to use the technical term)
through a condenser of two micro
farads. By this system an artist reporter
ran telephone to his office a descrip
tion nnd sketch of any event simul
taneously. In military operations,
maps and sketches Illustrating the
enemy's movements can be wired
back by scouts as they unfold them
selves, together with a verbal dis
patch, or an engineer can order ma
terial by telephone from a manufac
turer, accompany his message wltb
drawings of the goods he requires.
The wonderful system of telauto
graphy is accomplished by means of a
light ray traveling over sensitized pa-
I per. The graphite pencil at the
transmitter end has two electrical
contacts, one for horizontal and the
other for vertical movement, a curve
being made up of the component
paTtB of one or the other. On taking
the pencil from off Its rest a tiny
electric glow lamp In the receiver box
is illuminated. The light from this
lamp is conducted to a prism, from
i which it is reflected on to two little
pivoted mirrors, one of which corre
sponds with tho circuit of horizontal
movement and the other with that of
the vertical.
The light ray produced by the mir
rors Is absolutely Identical with the
movements of the point of the pencil,
and It Is thrown upon the section of
a spool of sensitized paper set to re
ceive It. By unhinging the attach
ment to the receiver bo: containing
the photographic film, and substitut
ing a focusing glass, the evolutions
of the light ray can be watched. It
appears as a tiny plnhnad of Ugh!
traveling in all directions over the
glass really Imitating exactly the
handwriting or drawing of the trans,
mitter.
On laying thepencil down the lamr
Is extinguished, and a little electro
motor pushes forward the sensitized
paper, on which tho message has Jusl
been photographed, passes It through
a chemical bath. In which It Is devel
oped, and in :u seconds the writing
or sketch becomes visible, while an
other film Is unwound from the spoo'
and placed In position to receive ih
next message. All these processes art
automatic. The receiver has now but
to cut off the film bearing the mas
sage, and "fix" It in the photogra
phic sense.

One Appreciative Render.
Pasted on the cover of one library
copy of a certain 1907 novel Is a
circulation record that causes pro
found wonderment. The book has
been taken out of tho library four
teen times In all; twelve times on the
same card.
That romarkable record Ib a mat
ter for serious speculation. How
could a book of that caliber convey
to any soul a message so tremen
dous that a dozen readings were de
sired? By the average reader and
by critics It would be considered a
commonplace book. When publish
ed it created no discussion, made no
Impression; It deserved to make
none, yet, notwithstanding Its ap
parent mediocrity, some scene there
in, some character, some human
note, went straight to the heart of
at least one reader. There has been
no skipping in reading that book.
It has been read carefully from cover
to cover; not a page that shows no
sign of usage. This very evidences
of absorption bear eloquent testi
mony to the Interest the story evok
ed In It3 one devoted reader. If It
were another kind of book, a scien
tific treatise or a text book of some
kind, it would be conceivable that a
student might wish to take It home
twelve different times and pore over
It for a month at a stretch, but how
a trite, threadbare little novel can
so stir a human soul. Verily, here
is n-nother mystery past finding out.

Ridiculous as It may appear at
first thought for a magistrate to
administer such an oath, "Do you
swear, before God, not to kill your
self?" one cannot fall to be Impress

court, when he required a discour

to hold up his right hand. Such a
little thing as that Is calculated to
make a downhearted chump feel that
at least one person In the world has
a slight Interest In his welfare.

AVOID RISK IN BUYING PAINT.
You take n good deal of risk If you
buy white lead without having abso
lute assurance as to Its purity and
quality. You know white lead Is of
ten adulterated, often misrepresented
But there's no need at all to take
any chances. The "Dutch Hoy Paint
er" trade mark of the National Lead
Company, the largest makers of gen
uine white lead, on a package of
White Lead, Is a positive guarantee
of purity and quality. It's as depend
able as the Dollar Sign. If you'll

Woodbrldge Bldg., New York City,
they will send you a simple and cer
tain outfit for testing white lead, and
a valuable book on paint, free.
