The Wonderful Things Accomplished From 1876 to. 1896. A careful study of the history of me- chanical progress convintes me that the invent4ve age attained the prime of its splendid career, in the years inclu- • sive of 1876 and 18b6 and that in that wonderful Period the world witnessed the conception and practical develop- ment of a larger number of valuable devices than any preceding era; also. that .it le decidedly improbable that any future •generation will approach . Its • record. Before our optimistic friends scoff at this rather dimal pft-• diction I will ask them to name some . really great invention or discovery which has been announced since 1896. 'He may name scores of little devices, but if he ,wili legit into the facts has will likely find that all of them are based on the superb series of funda- • mental inventions • and discoveriee which niarksgil 1876-96. . Suppose that those yeare were strick- en out of mechanical and scientific ad- vancement. What would the world be denied? • The telephone, electric light, both are and incandescent; gas lights • of high Intensity and economy, elec- tric railroads, wireless telegraphy, du:. plea and multiple telegraph, the type- writer, electric beating, all the Wee numerable forms of electric bells and •signaling, automobiles, bicycles, motor cycles, motor boats,• typesetting Ma- chines, the phonograph, .high speed ele- vators, scientific cold storage *and re- frigeration, steel buildings which have 'revolutionized our cities -the Iist is far from complete, but those who are not . properly impressed with this list may 'reflect that 1876-96 also added such lesser inventions and. systems as cable ;railroads (no* discarded); cameras and -all sorts of photographic material suit - ;able for popular use, air brakes, safe- ty couplings, sefety razors, smoke con; sumens, pneumatic tubes, eleetric pho- tographyymoving picture-machinesiTtheL wonders of modem dentistm and. the bewildering assortment "of breakfast foods. It will be urged that the principles of such inventions as the telephone, electric light, typewriter •and other *pooh making devices were- known in advance of .1876. Admitted, but what of it? We now know the principle of extracting heat and potver directly from coal . without combustion and the consequent waste, but .thia fact. Will not detract from the cretht of the alas who solved the problem if it elver Is solved. None of the things I have innmerated was in practigal operatitis in 1876. -Frederick Uphani-Adanis in ?Appleton's.
