Indians,fand is no doubt partially re- sponsible for the marvelously rapid dissemination of news on the plains noted by many American army officers. The modern war heliograph jg Almost equally simple jn theory and practice. The sending apparatus consists of a mirror mounted on a tripod and hung | on both horrizontal and vertical axes with adjusting screws adwittir, minute changes of plane With this mirror the sun's m.y8 are flashed for | miles, directed by painstaking adjust- ments 'into the field of vision of a re- ceiving telescope also tripod-mounted. The code is similar to that used in electric .clegraphy. Flashes, long, or short, represent dots and dashes, and the Morse or any other code, including ciphers can be readily used. ‘The hetiograph has been called the trump card of visual sigralling, for it pos— sesses the four cardinal military virtues —probability, rapidity, range and secrecy.

The heliograph is extremely portable weighing with its stand no more thana soldiers rifle. It pessesses a curious virtue ot secrecy, because io people standing even at a very short distance from the point on which its rays are directed its signals are invisible. But this fact will show how needful it is to have the sun reflected full on the dis- tant station; and to insure this the heliograph has to follow the sun as it traveis through the sky. The two screws mentioned, one giving a vertical movement and the other a horizental movement to the mirror, about its centre, effect this, and the screws can be manipulated by the signaller while in the act of sending without interup-~ tion to the message. The range of the heliograph is enormous with a strong sun and clear horizon, aud it is, there- fore, admirably usefull in South Africa. In the 1883-85 campaigns a helio- graphic signal service extended north —Orange River to Molopole—a dis- tance of 429 miles. One of the great virtues of the heliograph is its ability to pierce haze. Colonel Keyser, who was in 1880 with the beseiged garrison at Kandahar , reported that he opened communication with the advanced guard of relieving force, under Sir F. Roberts at Robat, a distace of forty- eight miles, and communications were kept up for several ours on a hazy day.

Heliographing 429 miles, as stated above, implies, a system of repeating station, however, as the the curvature of the earth tn such a distance makes it improbable that stations sufficiently high could be secured.

And It Angered the Taltlor’s Victim Accordingly.

“Now I know what it is to think murder. If I gave way to the animal in my nature, I would have that fellow’s life blood before I slept. Here it is Saturday night and not a chance to reach him before Monday. I’ll not go out of the house tomorrow, not if the bishop himself were going to conduct the services. Look at me!”

“Why, Robert, I think it’s a real nice looking suit. I do, indeed.”

“No, you don’t. Would you have ever married me if I’d tried to court you in a guy looking rig like this? I guess not. Look at the sleeves. You couldn’t get a deeent sized pair of cuffs through these wristbands to save you from be- ing flayed alive. Did you ever see such pants in your life—bloomers to the

Elks’ masquerade in such a rig.”

“Nothing the matter with the clothes,” snapped the wife’s sister, who is very much as other men’s wives’ sis- ters are.

“I wish you’d just reserve your val- uable opinion till it’s asked for. It’s a fright, and I want you to understand that I married only one of your fam- ave”

“I know it. There’s only one of the family who would have had you.”

ITCHING PILES...

Positively and permanently cured by Dr. A. W. Chase’s Ointment.

Dr. A. VW. Chase's Ointment fs an absolute cure for piles, and has never been known to fail to cure the worst forms of this disease which has baffled medical skill for ages.

This statement may sound rather strong to persons who do not know the superior merits of Dr. A. W. Chase's Ointment, but it is per- fectly true, and heartily endorsed by the grate- ful testimony of thousands of men and women who have been cured by itafter years of suffer- ing, and after trying many preparations and consulting the best doctors.

Mr. H. Bull, Belleville, Ont., says: ‘IT take pleasure in stating that after thirty years of suffering with Itching Piles, Dr, Chase's Oint- ment has completely cured me. _I tried every remedy thai was advertised, with little or no benefit, but as I have told different persons affected as I was, Dr. Chase's Ointment made a perfect cure.”

Dr. Chase’s Ointment has a record of cures unparalleled in the history of medicine. It is guaranteed to cure any case of piles. For
