English have beeu doing through the centuries to have advanced so little. We do not preti nd to answer for them, but would say for ourselves, we have been hewing our way through forests, pioneering in every direction, in every sense ample apology for feeding in

stead of dining But, of course, it was a Frenchman who made the declaration, and, of

course, he made it long ago, when, mortifying though it be, honesty compels ua to acknowledge that we may have been guilty. Times, however, and conditions have changed, and not even the most bigoted Frenchman will refuse to admit that when the American has reached the dining point he will have more to dine upon than any ther man in the world. The culture of man in America will demand all the art in his cuisiue that France hy study has evolved, with the added merit of honesty in his food, the disguises incident to poverty of material not being a necessity.

much sneering at "c ivil service reform

but all the outcries and sneers meant was that we were doing our duty as decent men and as public officials, with some slight appreciation of what was laBpiiei by the Wonts honor aud uprightness. Political organizations are eminently necessary and useful, but when they are seized by professional ssiils politicians of low morality, who run the "machine" in their own interests, who clamor against honest; - and defy decency and rail against that device for obtaining clean government which is kimwu as civil service reform, then it is time for all citizens who believe in good citizenship to rise in revolt.

The TopoM-op. In the loftiest tower in the city of Vienna there is a novel instrument, known as the toposeope, constantly attended day ami night, for the purpose of locating fires. It consists of a good telescope, which is solidly attached to an arrangement of levers, while graduated sections of a circle are arranged horizontally and vertically in such a way that the moving of the telescope sideways or up or down results in a change of position of the hands attached to the levers in reference to the graduated scales.

Thus, the stability of the apparatus be

ing assurwt ty the firmness of the fas

teniug, whenever the telescope is focused upou the same object the hands will

point to the same figures on the hori

zontal and on the vertical seitant. asai

aince an index of the whole city has been made it is but a matter of a few

seconds, when a glare is discovered at

night, to direct upon the spot the toposcope on the aide, to read off the num

Local conditions are, of course, ueeeswary for the successful ojs-r-atiou of such an apparatus, but iu this case they are said to be almost perfect The tower is over G00 feet high, and an uninterrupted view of the great area of the city is thus possible to the m atch man if the atmospheric conditions are favorable.
