In the Field of Electrical Experiment T end ThouKUt bf Wire. HOUdri f ti""slatt Ju,t as a tclegrum Is. naught en ergy can be carried along a conductor and into the earth much In the tame way as a llgh'.ning rod conducts light ning. It Is more than possible that thought Can be conducted and make Itself visible In writing." These remarkable conclusions concerning thought transTrdss'on are re tched by Prof. Kottk, of Moscow, a pyr-hoKlst with a European reputation, says the Chicago Inter Ocein. tie publishes them In a pamphlet, entitled. "The Invisible Thought I'hotography." It Is attrai-tin as gnat attention In Germany as It is In HuasU. Kotlk r-.dr fee i --or ; -.its rn -v' ! Ms conclusions are based on a girl 14 years old, daughter of a professional thought reader, and her father. He chose them because their minds are trained. Kotlk'i audience was composed of the members of the "Inner clinic" of Moscow unlverdslty, who may be regarded as rx VorU in fsjrohology. The girl's eyes were carefully bandaged, her ers were Uuffed with paraffin juid cotton-llteralltf, she was blind and deaf for the time. In the first experiment her father stood on a hire wsider lour, he holding her hand. She "read" quickly and accurately all the words and short sentencts her father presented to her while he held her hand. The words urd sentences wre writ ten by persons In the audience, and most were In langUTges which neither father nor daughter understood. A physician wrote In Greek. The girl, her eyes bound still, reproduced the Greek characters In chalk on a blackboard. Notable Flertrlrnl Enterprise. A striking Illustration of the pi nf-ess rein; mad" in thn use of the hyoraul c puwer f r the geivrnt'or. of elcctrlrl'y s furntshed by the recent closing of negotia tions In Ceiads for a new transmission line. It will start from Niagara, run west ward to Dundas (fifty miles away), and there divide Into thre branches. One will extend to Toronto, a second by way of Guilpli to Stratford,, and the third by way or LondV.n to 8t. Thomas. Borne day the list one may be cabled on to Windsor, opposdtu Dotroll, but no such plan Is con timplated at present. From the starting point to the end of the longest branch the distanre will be 170 miles. The whole sys tem, now put under contract, hns a length of 3i miles. The wires will be if alumi num and will be carried on steel towers. They are expected to convey 40,'10-horsepower, to be supplied by rne of the Cana dian corporations already doing business, the Ontario Power company. Tie notable feature of this Installation, reports the New Yoik Tribune, is the high pretmre UlO.OeO volts) at which it will transmit the current. Whin the Industry of ci'-vryirg power In the f rm of . !-c-tsli ily t" a iv'nt remote fr .r.t the po'nt of origin w-a In Its infancy, the limit of skill and safety was L'.CiO volts. Electrical en gineers knew that the higher the pressure they used the smaller was the metallic conductor which would serve their pur poses. The feasibility of any project of the kind depended largely on the cost of the copter wire required, and there was seen to be a point beyond which It would not pay to employ It. Hence there was a dc Flre to use the highest possible pressure, and energetic efforts were made so to Im prove Insulators that they w.-u!d not per mit lenknge. U was comparatively easy to raise voltages, but difficult to prevent the escape of current when they had been developed. Leakage hot only meant the loss of power, but It threatened disastrous accidents along the line. Hy degrei s, however, remarkable gains have been effected. In IsSS the first trans mission line tram Niugara t Buffalo, em ptying a voltage of 11,0(0. went Into opera tion. The second between those points began Its service In 191 wth a pressure twice as great. Two years ago there were tlx or eight lines In the world using a voltage of ,or, and at least one carrying TS.niiO volts. Some of the older lines in California were designed to vcrk et "S.OnO or 0 v l'r but the ever me: t lid n t give perfect satis. action at first, and the attempt was temporarily abandoned. A Michigan company, which has supplied Grand Rapids with a current of 72.000 volts for about three years. Is said to have oper ated a parallel line for the last few months at lOO.OuO volts. Wonderful as are these ad varices, they have been largely inspired by the pioneer work done at Niagara under the guidance of scientific advisers of International repu tation. 4. F.eonomr In Kleetrlc I.lnbtlns. In nearly every house there are places where eight candlepower. ot even four or two candlepower could be substituted for the sixteen candlepower lamps, thereby effecting a great saving. The? small candle power lamps give light enough for closets, stairways, cellais, hallways, pan tries and woodsheds, or storerooms. Small inndlepower lamps have have the double advantage of ssving the customer money when In use and not costing hlrn so much when accldently left burning. It Is well enough to use tho new hish lower lamps for reading or where a well lighted room Is desired, but It Is safer for the eyes and better for the p.e-ketbook to use less brilliant lamps whele a great amci nt of lluht la r.r.x m cesrary. Hall lamps or porch lan ps w hich an. kept burning should be of not more than two or fjur candlepower. These lamps give ample light for so small a space and really cost less than kerosene. There re numerous times In every home where It Is desirous to burn a lamp all night. In case of sickness a lighted lump throughout the night Is quite essential. ujo less brlllant lamps where a great saving for this purpose. When It Is realized that a sixteen candlepower lamp uses 33H per cent more current than a twelve candlepower, 87 per cent more than an eight candle power, three times as much as a four candle power, and five times as much as a two candlepower lamp, the economical ad vantage of the smaller sixes Is apparent. If the householder who compalns about the electric light bill from month to month will obseive the following rules he will find that the cost for lighting Ms home Is, nothing unreasonable. Don't waste light. t'se the smallest candlepower lamp which will do the work required. Cse reflectors for close work. Keep a fuw of the new metal filament lamps on hand for use wh-re a large amount of light Is required for any length of time. Tin y will pay for themselves many times over. A blackened lamp means a dimmed light. Throw It away. Paying for current to operate a dim light la the height of extravagance. One new lamp will often give as much light as two old ones. Don't spoil a good lamp by surrounding It with a light killing shade. Many of the ornamental shades are nothing m,e or ess tbaji fancy Klass light-spong. s which absorb most of the light rays. Rooms finished in dark colors requlro more light than rooms finished in llgot colors. Don't exiect tu iKbt your house In winter as cheaply as you do In summer. It Is Impossible, for there ar- several hours more daylight In summer than in winter. He tint 'I here. An old Irishman named Casey made a lot of money is a contractor und built a fine house for his children. The sons and daughters were much ashamed of the pleliinn father, and Casey was always kept In the rear of the house when they had a party or a reception. One day Casey died, and there was great to do about It. The children had a fine coffin with plenty of fluweis. and Casey was laid In state In tlm paTlor. That evening an old Irishwoman, who had known Casey when he was a laborer, cams and asked to see the face of her deaf friend. They conducted her to the parlor. She walked up to the coffin, took s, long look, and said: "Faith, Casey, an' they'vs let ys Into th' parlor at lusht."
