Many of you will be interested to learn that Mr. Grindell Matthews, whose "Death Ray" created a sensa- tion in two continents a year er so ago, has turned his attention to more peaceful pursuits. One of his latest ideas is what is called a Leniniaphone, an instrument by means of which music can be pro- .duced by the action of beams of light ,falling on the apparatus. He is also •working on a device by which a boat can: be steered by beams. His Experience. Good stories of the sea come na- turally to Earl Beatty, and one of his ,best concerns a certain officer Of the King's Navy who had for many years suffered from chronic sore throat. At last, while on leave in London, he , determined to see a specialist about it, and accordingly paid a visit to Har- ley Street. The doctor he consulted, being a great believer in simple remedies, asked him if he had ever tried salt- water gargling. Well, was the reply, , lie been torpedoed six times." The Bell. Mr. Stanley Baldwin'•s affection for English tbings is shown by this story, which he told at a private gathering recently. Standing on a hill near Florence, he heard a bell ringing—"Such a bell as was never on land and sea, a bell whose every vibration forced an echo in my inliermost heart. It was the most beautiful bell I ever heard." His hostess then told Mm that it was an English bell, bought by an Italian from the owner of a very an - dent English abbey. o Quaintly Named. Many clerics can, frorn personal ex- perience, tell of strange names be- stowed upon infants at their baptism.

"No man could swim the rapids be- low the Falls from bank to bank; the thing's impossible," he said bluntly. Lord Desborough shrugged his shoul- ders.

There is no bequest a man can make to his family that is more to be de- sired than his good name. This world will never beccnnte so mechanized as to lose sight of the merit or demerit of human beings taken one by one. Iiaif the meaning of patriotic celebration, biographic study or heraldic lore, when these mean anything at all, is the inspiration of a message from the past to the living present; and any parent has succeeded in this world when he transmits to his offspring an honorable reputation built up by years of clean, fair dealing. When the assets of a business are estimated, beyond the value of the buildings made with hands• is the In- tangible but real structure built with minds that would not descend to any kind of crooked practice and, through adversity or prosperity, have kept the faith with- every one.
