It is too fare. If justice were done, this fellow ? would have plenty of . companionship on the rock pile; and the personnel . .would . be amatmg'. - , 3 Of all- the crimes on the ' calendar, this one is. the meanest, "-simply -because it is so difficult . to , punish. There is no manner of defense against it. There is only a deterrent the fear of .the law. , Therefore thefact that a slanderer". actually, has been sent to the roads for a year should be trumpeted abroad. .It should ; be emphasized that this offense - is a damage suit If the slanderer is. worth it, damages can be collected from him, too: but even if he hasn't a cent, he can be put, on the chaingang. Lying ' maliciously , about' one s neighbors may be a . pleasant indoor sport, but those inclined to indulge in it snouid tear m- mind : that it has its risks: one of which is the risk of wearing stripes and a ball and chain.

The instrument had Just been set up and was being oper ated for. the first time. . The tubes bad been, firmly adjusted "and were Just at the spilling point and over they went, giving vent 4o the most unearthly sounds.'; The embryo enthusiast who looked upon the . audlon tube as nn electric light, thought It was going to explode.?:' He Jumped away from the instrument and out of the room, and did not venture near It for several hours, and then only after reaching round, the corner of the door with a long stick and. pulling the battery switch off. - F Similar Instances have come to at tention when bulbs generate varl-col-ored vapors In the vacuum chamber.
