The electric, motor is entirely deH-ndcnt uki the use of lead for generating power. 1 bis makes it both cost I v and hesvv If some cheap and light substance can be found to substitute for lead, social and industrial life will be rcv- olutioned. The railroad engine and its king train of heavy cars will be done away with ; all manufacturing plants will be run bv cheap power transmitted from the great water fulls. The horse will be seen no more ill our cities, creating as he does more dust and tilth and uuhealth than the densest population, and will be largely smieroedcd on the nails of the country.

It is the perfection of wireless telegraphy, The human throat is a wireless tele graph instrument, the ear is a rccciv er, and every time we talk we send a win-less telegraph message. The organs of the throat start vibrations in the air, the cur of the person who listens picks up these vibrations, which is sound. Now, the wireless telegraph instrument sends out vi brations in the ether and a receiving instrument picks them up and regis ters them. The process is being made more perfect every year. Mes sages have been sent across the ocean. But there is one great dilliculty yet. If several persoi4arntalkiiigat(Hice, none ran lie heard. That is exactly the present trouble with wireless telegraphy, Mora than one instru ment at work at once confuses all.
