NOTE TO CHARACTER
A MAN'S MIRTH WORTH
STUDYING,
Person's Laugh is Unchange7
able and a True Revealer
of Character.
St Mall to be given a wide berth and
plenty of margin, but very little rope,
is the man who laughs without smil-
ing; the man ho laughs like a paint-
ecLinaelt. His face Wriakles, and he
makes a noise, but his face and cackle
are as mirthless at the face and caCkle
of a batmloor fowl.
Such a man is hardhearted, cruel,
malignant. Remove tee restraints of
civilized society and such a man will
stick at nothing,
The maii who laughs with a "Ha,
ha, ha!" and "Ho, ho, ho!" heartily,
• esplosively, is of an impulsive disposi-
tion; be, when his iniPithies aro good
anes—and •they often 'are—they have
a way of fizzling out like dampoWs
der. His laugh, though loud, collies to
• a sudden stop, as though he had s.ud-
denly realized the fact that he wae,
making a big noise. His impulses
have the same rick of .rapid. closure.
It would be well to get an affidavit
and a receipt from this man. He may
ehange his mind without being too par-
ticular on the point of honor.
A Man to Avoid.
The man whose laugh rumblea in his
throat, corning out in little, spasmodic
bursts, like a subterranean disturb-
ance which makes spurts of steam and
water and lava, has a keen sense of
humor, and is very shrewd and far-
seeing. He is the sort of man who
may • hoax you, but you'll never get
your own back. He is too cute for
little tricks to succeed.
But he has the vice of liti virtues;
he is over -cautious, and sometimes
misses a great chance by going too
slow. He is, beside, apt to be sus-
picious, and sometimes say, "Where
there's. smoke there's fire," when there
isn't even the smoke. He can be trust-
ed with a secret, however, for he lets
neither his laughter nor his words es-
cape from behind the barrier of his
_teeth.' •
Beware of the man who smothers
his laugh, swallows it like the man
who • swallows his cigarette-srsoke,
who seems ashained to be caught:With
a smile on his lips, although it is •so
rare an occurrence that theta 'is little
chance.
If that man is your employer, he will
sweat you; if he is your parent, he
will probably disinherit you, give you
"the key of the street"; and if he is
your husband—well, you are to be
The subdued, genteel laugh, the "ex-
cuse me" laugh, the
could -help -it laugh, is generally the
product of a person who thinks a full-
bodied .gliffew is very had term. Such
a person has that falsity, unreality,
and shallowness of character which in-
variably go with conceit, and, whilst
he can never be, 'a warm friend, he
might be a very sly etiemy:
Generous and Good -Natured.
People who laugh internally, with a
shaking of the shoulders and a red-
dening of the face, are generally
whole -hearted, generous, good-natured
folk, who can be trusted; bat perhaps
the best laugh of all is the quietly
hearty laugh, which just lets itself go
smoothly and without undue restraint.
A mere giggle is inane, a horse,
laugh is an indication of horse -sense, I
a little snigger shows shallowness of I
nature, but •a laugh which says in 1
every toile, "That's splendid!" is the
merriment of a person to be trusted
and loved: -
This, at any rate, is certain—that a
person's laugh is as unchangeable as
the shape of bis nose or the color of
his eyes, Neither education nor polish
tan eradicate its main characteristics,
It may be modified, subdued, softened
to some slight extent, but it is the
same laugh still, and, in unguarded
moments, will return to its tell-tale
naturalness, And, even when modified
and subdued, the laugh is still a
subtle revealer of character.

Not in That Class.
A parliamentary candidate was ad-
dressing a meeting in his constituency.
He had no sooner risen and said,
"Gentlemen," than someone threw an
egg at ham.
Quite unperturbed, he turned to the
offender and said:
"I was not speaking to you, sir."
"Why, gentlemen," thundered a
Parliamentary candidate, "my oppon-
ent hasn't a leg to stand on!' "All the
more reason why he should have a
seat," came a voice from the rear.

Sending Photos by 'Phone
• If Jules Verne were still alive, his
fertile imagination would create new
wonders from the latest triumph of
ecience—transmitting pictures by tele-
graphy.
• -It is now poespie to send one by an
ordinary land line, by wireless, and by
telephone. •
There are now several methods of
sending pictures by telegraphy, and
they have all one feature hi comma.
A picture is transmitted, not. as a
whole, but bit by bit. It is sent piece-
meal from ono end and built up in like
manner at the other. '
The main principles of picture -tele-
graphy are embodied in a system
which was used experimentally a few
years ago. At the transmitting sta-
tion a cony ef- the picture to be sent
is fastened round a metal cylinder
which has a double motion—it both re-
volves and travels longitudinally.
Every part of the picture can thus be
brought ultimately to the same point.
How the Wonder is Worked.
Now, the picture has been so 'pre-
pared that an electric current will not
pass through it, but will pass through
the material supporting It. So that, in
"sending," the current passes when a
bare part is reached and stops at any
detail in the picture.
At the other --the receiving—end is
another.cylinder moving at exactly the
same rate. Round, this is bent a sen-
sitive sheet, 011 which a dark deposit
is produced wherever an electric cur-
rent passes through it. The blanks in
the copy are consequently represented
by deposits on the sheet, and the re-
sult—aseeming that the copy is a posi-
tive—is a negative.
But there is a system of transmit-
ting a picture either by telegraphy,
wireless or other, or by telephony. The
picture is drawn or placed on a sheet
• of paper divided into small equaree,
for each of whicb there is a symbol.
For example, the code—beginning at
the top left-hand corner—may be Al,
A2,..A.3, ate, for the first row, B1, B2,
B3, etc., for the second now, -and se ono
At the receiving end. is 'a similar
sheet of paper, on which, by hand or
otherwise, the picture is built up, in
accordance with the message.
Obviously, by this system a picture
could be sent Aland the world, Its
range is limited only by that of tele-
graphy or telephony.
Low Cost of Transmission,
The Swedish invention, which is a
secret, appears to be a modification of
the code system. Two portraits were
recently cabled from Denmark to Lon-
don, one message containing 145
words and the, other 185 words. As a
single error would have altered the
picture, each meseage, on being re-
ceived in London, was cabled back to
Denmark, so that it might be checked,
and consequently the whole operation
took a comparatively long time. In
general, a picture can be turned into
code in from one to two hours, and an
equal peeled is required for the pro-
cess at the receiving end.
The apparatus for working this sys-
tem is inexpensive, and the cost of
transmission is merely that of a tele-
gram or message.
Possibly. therefore, transmitting pic-
tures by telegraphy will soon be a com-
monplace of scientific achievement. As
far back as 1907 several newspapers
installed apparatus, designed by Pro-
fessor A. Horn, for picture -telegraphy,
and many inventors have since im-
proved on his ideas.
An important use of the perfected
systenI will be the furthering of the
ends of justice, as the transmission of
the portrait of a criminal will be prac-
ticable,

A Franklin Acrostic.
These verses were sent to Benja-
mln Franklin, when he was but four
and one-half years old, by his uncle of
the same nam.e. They were learned
by the boy as soon as he could read.
Without doubt they exerciselt con-
siderable influence upon his whole
life, especially the line about the

he had become the great Dr. Franklin,.
he quoted them from memory, at the
age of sixty-one, in a letter written
from England to his son:
Be to thy parents an obedient son;
Each day let duty constantly be done;
Never give way to sloth, or lust, or
pride,
If free you'd be from thousand ills be-
side;
Above all ills be sure avoid the shelf;
Man's danger lies in Satan, sin, and
self.

The Blacksmith's Reason.
While Tom Biggers, the village
blacksmith, tolled over the plowshare
brought in by old Peter Mullins, the
farmer, the owner told at length of the
remarkable success he had had with
three litters of pigs he had sold in
mark -et that day.
"Now," said old Peter, "them pigs
Was less than eight months old; and
they brought me ten cents a pound or
a little above $400. Why, Tom, only
a few years ago them same pigs would
have fetched me only about half as
muCll 1 tell you, Tom, the farmer is
gittin' his harvest now."
By this time Biggers had completed
the sharpening of the share, and he
handed it to Peter, From a well-worn
purse old Peter took forth two dimes,
the usual price for such a job, and
dropped them into the blacksmith's
hand.
Peter," observed Biggers,
"you'll have to come again. I oharge
thiety cents since the first of the year
for sharpening that plow."
"That's an, outragel" sputtered old
Peter. "Why have you raised the price
"To buy seine of that high-priced
pork you were just tellin' me about,"
said Biggers, with. a 'grin:

Worth the Risk.
A careful mother's three children
horrified her one day by producing
three bilious -looking toffee -apples for
her inspection.
"They are very pretty, dears," she
said bravely, "but you really must not
eat them. I have heard of children
dying through eating colored toffee -
apples."
Then she took the sweetmeats, and
placed them out of reach ---as she
thought—on a shelf in her dres,sing-

Very early next morning she heard
Elsie trotting along the passage, and

Seaweed For Paper.
Manufacture of paper pulp from sea-
weed is proving a profitable undertak-
ing in Japan, and the only company
manufacturing this pulp is building an-
other factory. This concern was or-
ganized in December, 1916, and is pro-
ducing, by a secret process, about fifty
tons of pulp daily, which is largely
used in the composition of cigarette
paper. The new plant, when com-
pleted, will have a daily capacity of
150 tons of pulp. The present price is
about five cents a pound.
