The Kliioroncope.
Mr. Thomas A. Kdison has Invented
an apparatus, called the fluoroscope.
hy the aid of which a surgeon, in
stead of photographing with the X
rays the hones or other hard substances
concealed under the skin and flesh of
a patient, may actually see them.
The machine depends for Its action
upon the fact that the X rayi possess
the property of rendering luminous
certain substances, which chemists call
fluorescent. Mr.- Kdison ilrst deier
mined, by experiment, that the best
fluorescent substance for this purpose
was calcium tungstnte. The tungstale
is spread In a smooth layer upon a
piece of pasteboard which forms the
bottom of a small box. having boles
for the eyes at the upper eud. A
Crookes tube, enclosed In another box.
Is excited by a current of electricity,
and If the hand, for Instance, Is to be
examined, It Is placed upon the box
containing the tnlie. The observer then
looks Into the viewing box, whose
tungstate-eovered bottom Is placed di
rectly above the hand, and sees,wlth
startling distinctness, the boiy-s and
Joints, showing at dark and delicately
graduated shadows, while the flesh is
only faintly visible. The reason the
bones appear Is because they Inter
cept the X rays, nnd thus prevent the
tungstate sur'v'p from becoming fluor

The expedition which will go from
the I.lck Observatory to observe the
eclipse of the gun In Japan next Au
gust will carry a novel photographic
machine to picture the great coronal
treamer that are seen around the
sun when Its globe Is hidden behind the
moon. The sun's corona has been pho
tographed during previous eclipses,
but aa Its light Is much stronger near
the aun than at a greater distance, the
photographs have Invariably been over
exposed for the brighter part of the
phenomenon when so timed as to catch
the Image of the fainter parts; and,
conversely, the outer portions of the
streamers have been lost In the photo
graphs when the exposure has been
made short enough to give a good Im
age of the bright Inner portion. Mr.
Burekhalter, of the Ohahot Observa
tory, Oakland, who will accompany
the expedition referred to, thinks be
has contrived a machine that will
pqiialixe the exposure for all part of
the corona, and thus enable lilm to
get a perfect photograph of the won
derful display around the sun during
the eclipse. The principal feature of
his Invention is a rotating diaphragm,
driven by clockwork and provided with
a peculiarly shaped hole for the pas
sage of the light, whereby the fnint
outer part of the corona will get a
much longer exposure than iLe brill
iant Inner part
Astonishing Blaleiiiem.
A certain woman novelist writes in
so a musing a fashion that the many
blunders which mar her work lire not
discovered by the critical. In one of
her novels will be found a horse win
ning the Derby three yeura lu aiioe
slon; guardsmen sitting; up nil night
drinking hard, smoking perfumed cig
arette, gambling for fabulous sums,
and starting forth In the roornlDg after
breakfast of ortolans and green Char
treuse, fresh aa daisies and prepared
to do deeds of prowess In the hunting
field or at the covert aide; and thut
great feat, too, performed by a maiii

Iu another ,f her Istoks a genth-man
performs a similar feat, but this tlm
lor the snke of variety, with a rifle bul
let. An Knglish novelist, In describing
river side jieople says, "They go to
church but three times In their lives
when they are baptized, when they are
married, and when they are buried." It
Is only people In novels who go to be
buried during their lives. Mr. Rider
Haggard, in his "King Solomon's
Mines," made an eclipse of the nmoti

at the full, when the earth Is betwee:!

A Public Keuervoir.
I saw an Interesting sight while In
Venice. Kut e ring a little square shut
in by high houses, and, like most Vene
tian Muans. dominated by tht' niilin-isiu-d
facade of a tlnie-stalned church,
I noticed a singular activity among
t!ie. people. They were scurrying iu
from every alley, and hastening from
every house door, with odd-shnped
copper buckets on hook-ended woodi n
bows, nnd with little coils of rop.-.
Old men and women, boys, and girl ;,
all gathered closely about a covered
well curb lu the middle of the square;
and still they hurried on, until they
stood a dozen deep around It. I'n s
ently the cliw-k in the church tower
slowly struck H, nnd a little man forced
his way through the crowd, passed
his jMinderoiis Iron key through 11:
lid, and unlocked the well.
There Immediately ensued a scene of
great activity. The kettles went Jan
gling into It, nnd came slopping out
again at an untaxing rate, nnd Un
people trudged off home, each with
u pair of them swung from each shoul
der. The wells arc deep cisterns, which
are filled during the night, and It Is
out of amiable consideration for thos--who
love their morning nap that they
are given us good a chance as their
neighbor of getting an unsoiled sup
ply. It Is the Hrst instance that has
come to my notice of n commendable
municipal restraint upon the repre
hensible practice of early rising. I
found, on closer Investigation, that th -water
was of excellent quality.

I'.y those who will exercise the re

There have been not n few exhibitors
who could actually control the heart
beat, making their pulses noticeably
slower or luster according to their
pleasure. The seemingly nriraciiliuis
feats of ncrolmts aj-e simply the results
of continually placing particular sets
of muscles under complete control of
the will. We should do well to try to
appreciate how Important, to our phys
ical being at least, f lie gaining of a
complete control over bodies may be.

Not Quite Correct. ,
In telling a Joke, It Is well to under
stand It thoroughly. A party of men
were wont to amuse themselves at ,
table by relating anecdotes,
c onun- I
drums, etc. Mr. Archer was always!
greatly delighted at these Jokes, hut 1
he never related anything himself, and (
1 I .. .- .... U ,1.1.. I
being rallied on the matter, he deter
mined that the next time he was called
iqiou be would say something amusing.,
Accordingly, meeting one of the wait
ers soon afterward, he asked him if he
knew any good Jokes or conundrums, j
The waiter Immediately related the
following: "It Is my father's child,
and my mother'u child, yet It Is not my
sister or brother," telling him nt the
same time that It was himself. Mr.
Archer bore this In mind, and at tha
next meeting of bis friends propound
ed It. "It it my father's child, and my
mother's child, yet It Is not my sister
or brother," throwing a triumphant
glance around the table. 'Then It must
be yourself," said one of the company.
"I've got you now," aald he; "you
are wrong this time; It Is the waiter."
A shout of laughter Interrupted ArcliPr,
who perceiving the mess he had got
Into, acknowledged his error, and told
the coinnanv that he would nay for the i
wine. It was bis last effort.

The longest and strangest of the com

fortunately, ever become popular In !
New England. Nevertheless the Amer-1

Dr. Holmes has recognized this In his!
ballad of I'liritan times, beginning with
the father's imitation to bis little son:
"Come hither, Ood-be-Cloritied. and sil '
