THE TELEPHONE
Alexander Graham Bell invented
the telephone (1876,) which instru-
ment was rapidly developed. In 1877
Emil Berliner patented the micro-
phone transmitter, based upon the
principe discovered by Du Moncel of
altering the resistance of two conduc-
tors by pressure. In the same year
Edison constructed his carbon tele-
phone. To ,Berliner and Edison. says
the Scientific American, belongs the
credit of having made the telephone
a commercial invention. '
The correct idea of the telephone
also occurred to Elisha. Gray, who,
however, filed a caveat in the United
States Patent Office only a few hours
after Bell, with the result that all the
commercial fruits of one of the great-
cst discoveries in theworld slipped
from his grasp. Bell’s patent has
been called "the most valuable single
_patent ever issued," in any country.
,That is probably true; for its claims
cover not merely an instrument, but
the whole art of transmitting speech
over a wire. When the telephone was
placed upon a business basis by Gar-
diner Hubbard (to whoiu America
owes very much indeed for the en-
couragement which he gave Bell and
for his business acumen, and broad
iiilndedness) the Western Union Tele-
graph Company realized that a form-
idable competitor of the telegraph had
appeared. It organized the Ameri-
can Speaking Telephone Company,
anti engaged Edison, Gray and Dol-
bear as electrical engineers. These
three men, as well as Berliner, Blake,
I-luglies and others developed the tele-
phone and made it a really practical
commercial instrument. In 1877 Ber-
liner invented the losse contact trans-
mitter and applied .the induction coil
between transmitter and receiver.
These two inventions have ever since
been applied in all practical telephony
and iio other devices have taken their
places in practice. Both of these are
essential elements ot’ the telephone as
we know it.

THE WATERED MILK CURE.
Seigncur Jacques de Teuzel of Am-
herst, in France, who lived in the
fifteenth century, was evidently it pi-
oneer of the pure fold movement. Ac-
cording to the London Chronicle, he
took drastic and novel measures
against the adulterators of food in his
domain. ln a decree issued in 1841
he directed the "a funnel shall be
placed in the mouth of any man or
woman convicted of having sold wat-
ered milk shall be poured down the
funnel until such time as a doctor
shall declare that the culprit camiot
be made to swallow any more without
danger of death.”
The seller of impure butter was to
be put iii the pillory, “when tho butter
shall be crushed upon his head, and
shall remain there until the sun shall
have melted it."
STRANGE CHINESE BELIEFS.
Among the many extraordinary
customs of the Chinese is that of
banding years together in groups of
twelve, called "cycles, and naming
each year of the series after some
animal. Thus, the first year of a new
cycle is the year of the Rat. the sec-
ond the year of the Ox, the third, the
year of the Tiger. Every Chinese
born in the year of the itat belongs to
the Order of the Rat, and so on. The
animal class of every Chinese man or
woman is thus recorded, and is held to
be of great importance in foretelling
the future. Another curious fact
about the Chinese reckoning of time
is that Iii the Celestial Empire a child
is held to be one year old as soon as
it is born. With the absurd super-
stition so dear to the Oriental mind,
a baby boy is frequently given a girl‘s
name in order to deceive the evil spir
its, who, apparently, have an objec-
tionable linbit of making it ns hard as
possible to rear n male child success-
fully.

The firing line is not the only
place where danger is"encountered;
not only on the battlefield do ex-
traordinary situations arise, de-
manding quick thought and pres-
ence of mind, as can be seen from
the following story told by a. young
lady nurse of Toronto. who was in
Hamilton recently visiting friends:
The girl (she is only twenty-one)
had been stationed at a base hospi-
tal in France'. One day she was
standing at the door, talking to a
patient. A shell exploded near, and
when she _ regained consciousness
they told her it had been necessary
to cut oil three of her fingers; tlic
patient had been instantly killed.
It was iiot, however, of this that
sho spoge, merely referring to it
with an expressive shrug of the
shoulder and the remark that such
was an every day occurrence; that
even she had become iiiiiiioved by
scenes of death and blood. Leave of
absence had been granted and she
had” applied for passage over to her
home in Caiiada. oii one of the (fana-
dian liners. Uufortuiiately all thc
state-rooms had been taken. Soon-
er than cause her a_loiig wait tlll
the next sailing, the captain pro-
posed that she occupy a berth in a
cabin that had been taken by a nun,
WIIO had Signed her name on the re-
gister as Sister Sohia, Sister of
Mercy.
Though the nun objected. the cap-'
tain was ilrm in his request, ex-
plaining the plight tho young nurse
Wai ill. and finally she was allowed
to share the cabin. For three days
all went well. The nun was rather
uncommunicatlve, spending her time
The night of the third day is dc-
scribed in the nurse’s words: “ln
the early afternoon I had been at-
tempting to do some fancy work,
though it was hard with my muti-
lated hand. I was, however, mak-
ing great progress. There was a
beautiful warm breeze; it evident-
ly caused me to doze. When I
awoke. my work was on the deck. I
stooped to pick it up. and of course
gave my hand a bang, causing the
most excruciating pains, so severe
that I retired at an early hour.
“Whether it was going to bed
early or because the pain was so ac-
ute. I don’t know, but I woke up at
three in the morning. The usual
little light was burning. also I could
seo a heavier reflection on the wall,
W0llll0l‘lnl-Z what it could bc, I
turned, and there was the nun shav-
ing. using an electric torch to light
the mirror.
“For a moment l felt powerless;
then I wanted to scream. Reason re-
turned, howcvcr, in time to prevent,
me and i decided to walt iiiitil
morning. The next three hours
were ones, that I will remeinbcr to
the longest ti:-ty I live. Every few
moments I expected “she” would no-
tice I was not asleep. Try as l
would my eyes refused to rcinalu
shut.
When the hour had struck seven
llie nurse arose and dressed :is
quickly as possible. The ‘nun' ful-
lowed her and she was nimble to
speak to the captain until afici-
breakfast.
“I-Io mid two of his ofllcers went
to-thc cabin and though the dis-
guised iiun put np a terrific battle,
they finally overcame him and plac-
ed Iilm in irons. Every possible pre-
caution was used iii keeping the
trouble from the passengers. The
man, when searclied, again foiiglit.
Two automatic revolvcrs of Ger-
man make were taken from pockets
under his arms, xi vial was found
noiitainiiig poison with action simi-
lar to strychnliic. Papers were
found written in German. also it
iiiiiiiber of maps, presuiiiably ot'
English coast towns. it was sur-
mised that he was on his way to
Canada, thence to the United States
and then home to Germany." 'l‘lic
nurse was complimented on her bra-
very, aiid the captain assured her
that when lie turned the spy over to
the proper authorities iii England,
lie would tell how the capture was
brought about. The work of that
brave girl may have saved tliousuiids
of lives.
THE LADS OF THE MAPLE LEAF.
Ripe for niiy adventure, sturdy, loyal

across to the other shore,
Heard a deep hum in thc distance,

Forwartl-with throbbing pulses, like

Spoiled for a fight, and got it-lurid,

Trifled with death ln the trenches,

Not because they were bending. but
to keep the line intact.

At Various Points Of Prince Edward
- Island
It seems to be necessary that at least a thousand
sticks of dynamite should be exploded at various points
in Prince Edward Island in the same manner as is oc-
curing in other pvarts of Canada before the Fathers,
Mothers, Sisters, ives and the young men of Prince
Edward Island will realize that there is a War going
on, in which they must take their part.
Every Citizen Must Back Us Up
And Assist in the Work of Recruiting
That is common sense as well as doing your duty. In Prince Edward Is-
land our efforts have been entirely hap-hazard and we want you to realize that this
is not a War to be played with on the hap-hazard principle. Major P. R. Hanson,
speaking in Montreal recently. Says conscription will come in Canada. Are you
§oing topwait for it? or, are you coming with the Prince Edward Island Heavy
attery. .
Every Able-Bodied Man Here Will Un-
doubtedly go to the War before the end
And going to the War is not pleasant even when conditions are such as they will
be in the Heavy Battery I the best possible) but all you men should realize and your
own common sense will force you to realize that when you are forced to go nobody
is going to care very much about your conditions and you will not have there-
spect of either yourself or your oliicers.
Enlist to-day don’t be a Coward
Many Heroes have already Volunteered
WHERE ARE YOU ?
Yes Sir! many men t and many officers havealready volunteered for the
Heavy Battery, Why? because they-fully realize that with a full battery of 217
men and olhcers all from Prince Edward Island they will have someone always to
look after them, friends in time of need, they wiil be trained together, sleep to-
gether; eat together, fight together and for each other. One large family to whom
the honor of P. E. Island is entrusted.
The Schools,the Colleges.the Churches
of Our Land Must Pour Out
Supplies of Soldiers
They are factories that produce the men, the country needs at this juncture
-men of character, conscience, seriousness, stern, set, determined men-men who
hate War and fight all the harder because they hate it-men who go to the War
not as an adventure but as the most solemn and instant of duties. This is the
kind of men the Heavy Battery requires. ~
It Takes Six Months To Train A
Heavy Battery Thoroughly
As soon as the required number of heroes are obtained this training will be
started in Charlottetown and will be continued there for some months, then it will
be finished in Halifax or Valcartier and Petewawa, then the finishing touches will
be done in England. This course of training will make every officer every non-
commissioned officer and every gunner proficient and expert in his work.
The Great Question Is
Why Is He Not At The Front ?
Ask it of yourself, why ? WHY? You ought to bc, the (stacker) will have a
hard time in Prince Edward Island and he ought to have a hard time everywhere.
Make your decision at once, come in and enlist in the l-leavy Battery we are organ-
izing. Apply to the undersigned officers who are going to the front with you and
who will not send you into any danger where they will not go themselves ahead
of you. lt is up to you. God save the King.
