Almost incredible are the possi-
bilities attaching to an invention
that has nearly bean completed and.
which will make railroad accidents
practically impossible, Since the
first demonstration of the "railo<
hone," which renders possible
elephonic communication with a
railway train in motion, wan given
about a year ago, the inventor, Mr.
✓ on Kramer, has made, great
strides. In conjunction with Pro-
fessor Kapp, of Birmingham (Eng-
land) University, bo has evolved a
sensitive detector, by means of
which, he states, "it is possible to
pick up those feeble currents which
are received by the train, and to re-
lay them up into stronger currents
t o operate electric bells or hooters,
or even to put on the brakes of train
or to stop them at the will of the
signalman at the station." Thus a
signalman 10 or 20 milds away may
press a button and the train stops
automatically. Another feature of
the railophone is that trains equip-
ped with it can automatically bring
back their signals to the danger
position if they have been inadver-
tently left open by the signalman,
and as any such forgetfulness is re-
corded at the time it occurs, the in
strument settles the question of
who is to blame if a driver passes a
signal which should be against him.

anteeing its sale.
"I then commenced to recommend
it to my patients in place of coffee,

,sequence is every ,store in town is
now selling it, as it has becomea
household necessity in many homes.
"I'm sure I prescribe Post= as

THE MONTESSORI SYSTEM.
How It Develops the Faculties in
the Child.
The most conspicuous achieve-
ment of Dr. Maria Montessori's in-
teresting educational methods, says
Josephine '.Cozier in The World's
Work of London, is the way in
which her little pupils begin spon-
taneously to read and write -Lor
"explode .into writing," as. Madame
Montessori herself graphically puts
slow Mouteesori schools din Boston
and; New Yorks,
At first the elxildren entertain
themselves with toy seleoted to ap-
peal to the senses of tench and
sight. Meanwhile the teacher
makes a eareful study of the pecu.-
'larities of each pupil,abut does not
attempt any actual dlsciplinc.
Indeed, children are in the
rHouse of Childhood" sometimes
for several" weeks before any real
lessons are given them. They are
required, however, to be tidy in
their persons and in their dress,
Now, all children love to dabble in
water, particularly when soap
plays a ,part in the game; in the
Montessori schools, under judicious
guidance, the washing of the hands
and fano beouiess, even with the
youngest., am„ eleaninl;,procesa.
Doctor Montessori uses light
gymnastics to give the little ones
command of their limbs and to
bring about the proper co-ordina-
tion of their muscles, but the gym-
nastic exercises continue only a few
minutes at a time. Then follow
house nacres,—that is, the arrange-
ment of tables and the washing of
dishes,—and then building with
blocks and the matching of colors.
The first of the tactile a xercises—
the one that eventually leads to
writing is carried on by means of
rough and smooth paper. The child,
is taught to distinguish between
rough and smooth by having bis
hands drawn first over one surface
and then over the other. Then the
child has its fingers brought into
conact with squares of cloth; that
is, with yielding .surfaces. Next,
the child receives wooden tablets in
order that he may learn to discri-
minate between the weights of two
different objects. Then the pupil
has 'geometrical forms in metal,
which he places on paper and the
outlines of which he traces with a
colored crayon. These outlines he
fills in with color. This last exer-
cise Doctor Montessori regards 'as
of the greatest importance, for it
trains the fingers to direct the pen-
cil or crayon.
When the child's sense of touch
has thus becn`-aotually developed,
he receives an alphabet, each letter
of which is mounted on a separate
piece of sandpaper. He traces the
outline of each letter with his fin-
gers as it is pronounced by the
teacher. The sound of each letter
becomes so strongly associated with
the muscular movements necessary
to produce it that when he hears a
word spoken of which the letters
are known to him, 'his fingers in-
stinctively make the motions that
they have se often made in tracing
the sandpaper alphabet. If he has
a crayon in his hand the record be-
comes visible, and he begins to
write.
Ordinarily, children are taught to
read and write by means of along
succession of monotonous and, to
them, meaningless: tasks imposed
upon them by the teacher. By the
Montessori method there is no co-
ercion, there is 'no attempt even to
persuade the -child, He uncon-
sciously masters the means of ex-
pression through toys and games
devised so to develop his faculties
.that they will respond quickly and
accurately tp the demands of his
mind.

taessori, an Italian physician and

AS
TATTLE ABOUT TEA.
Little commonplace matters are
SC very 'often lost sight of in the
stress of life, And the one and,
only way to make a drinkable cup
of tea is a small fact overlooked ltl
-the education of most, and yet it is
a thing which every .roan, woman,
or -child should know how to do cor-
rectly. To begin with, if possible,
an earthenware teapot should be
used. Silver, plated, copper, and;
other 'metal vessels do not seem to'
possess the virtues of making a real
good cup of tea. Then, of course,
the, pet must be scrupulously clean,.
However, ie time even the most
eleanly-kept teapots are liable to
become objectionable owing to the
rapid, accumulation of tannin ori; the
inside. -h -f
Thos it would be ,gist., x,,
r
pe fection of brew is to beobtained,
occasionally to place soda in the
boiling water used for the washing
of this utensil, Before putting on
the tea—one teaspoonful for each
person and one for the pot—the
latter must be heated with hot wa-
ter, Then fresh water must be
brought to the bell, and poured on
the tea, without lifting the kettle
from the fire.

ETIQUETTE ON .WARSHIPS.
Etiquette plays quite an impor-
tant part on a modern battleship,
and the Navy enforces many little
forms and customs. In the. ward-
room, where the officers and mid-
shipmen dine, the commander does
not sit at the head ofthe table,'
That place is res-erved for the presi-
dent of the mess. The commander
invariably sits:; at his right; hand,
while the •-former changes every
month. Evening -dress is a stead-
fast rule; so much so that the man
who has to take a watch after din-
ner, and who has no time to change,
sits al, a table by himself. The
toast of "The King;'' in the Navy
is drunk sitting. Tradition ` has it
that a certain king once proposed a
toast, and, jumping up, hit his head
against abeam above. Orders were
given, the etory, goes, that all
toasts were. -to be. drunk sitting in
future. "The "middy" on 'a 'War-
