SCHOOL NOTICE.
The young man explained that ho
had been ordered to report for duty
at the Doston olUce. Ho wns told to
bit down and wait. A little while
later a New York sender, who wns
cue of the most rapid In the tele
graph business at that time, called
up. All the operators woro busy.
"Let that now fellow try him,"
tnld tho chief.
. Edison sat down nnd for four and
ono half hours took tho speedy mes
sages. Tho faster tho Instruments
(licked, tho faster he wrote tho
words. At tho end New York call
ed "Hello!"
"Hollo yourself," Edison flashed
back.
"Who tho dickens nro you?" asked
tho New York operator.
"Tom Edison."
"You aro the first man in tho coun
try thnt could over take mo at my
fastest, " clicked out Now York,
"and tho only 0110 who could ever sit
at the other end of my wlro for more
than two hours and a half. I'm
proud to know you."
Thfs llttlo story of Thomas Alva
Edison shows that oven as a young
man ho exhibited unusual ability. He
was born on February 11, 1847, at
Milan, Eric County, Ohio. Ills family
moved to Port Huron, Michigan,
when the boy wns seven, and when
ho was twelvo years old Edison be
came a train newsboy on tho rnll
way to Detroit. It waB during this
t me that he rigged up apparatus In
the baggage car and experimented
with chemistry and telegraphy.
Mo was but fifteen when he becamo
a telegraph operator. Dut IiIb studies
ami experiments Interfered so much
with his duties that ho was discharg
ed many times. Ho worked In a num
ber of cities of tho United States and
Canada. At the ago of twenty-ono
he had built an automatic repeator,
by which a telegraphic messngo could
be transferred from 0110 end of the
who to the othor without tho aid of
an operator. Dy means of this mes
sages could bo sent direct to n much
greater distance than formerly.
Edison llnnlly went to Doston, na
rolated above, nnd thenco to New
York In 18C0. Ho then invented an
Improved printing telegraph for stock
quotations tho ticker. For this ho
received $ 10,000.
Then ho built a laboratory at New
ark, New Jersey, but four years later
moved to Mcnlo Park, and lntor to
West Orange, New Jersey. All tho
timo ho continued his experiments
nnd Inventions. Ho now lives at Or
ange, nnd ho Is nB hard a worker at
sixty-six as ho was when n young
man.
Among Edison's moro Important
Inventions nro his system of multi
plex telegraphy; tho carbon telephono
transmitter; tho phonograph; tho In
candescent lamp nnd light syBtem;
the klnotoscopo, and his invention
this yenr, tho talklng-movlng-plcture.
In nil ho tins had seven hundred pat
ents granted to him.
In 1S7S Edison was mndo Cheva
lier and afterward Commander of tho
Legion of Honor by the French gov
ernment.

Try Tho Times Want Ada,
No. 1. FURNITURE OF EARLY TIMES
PEOPLE linvo always used furni
ture: hut tho kind of furniture
wo uso today Is of comparatively
recent origin. Wood, Ivory, precious
fctoncs, bronze, gold nnd silver havo
been used from oarlleGt times in tho
construction and for the decoration
of furnlturo; but modern furnlturo
Is n dovolopmont of llttlo moro thnn
four centuries.
Furniture has always varied In
kind nnd stylo according to tho needs
end customs of Its users. Thero nre
fow examples loft of really ancient
furnlturo. This Is duo partly to tho
perishable materials used in its mak
ing, and partly to tho fact that tho
peoplo of olden times hnd llttlo fur
nlturo of nny kind. Even tho poorest
homo of today is bettor suplled with
household appliances than tho most
nrlotocratlc house of splendid Egypt,
tasteful Greece, or luxurious Rome.
And In -tho long period between
tho destruction of these nnclent civi
lizations and tho RonnlBsanco tho
making of furnlturo developed very
little. Tho rulors of Egypt woro ns
woll housed as tho early kings of
England. Household furnishings
were the prlvllego of tho great alone.
No person of menu degreo could or
would uso a chair ono of tho com
monest objects in every modem
homo. Actlvo people, aa thoy woro,
living much In tho open air, they
needed but benches upon which to
sit nt meals, and beds on which to
sleep. Our luxuries woro not only
unknown but unnecessary to them.
Tho Egyptians used wooden fur
niture, carved and gilded; thoy also
iscd chests In which to keep things.
Tho tnbles and couches of tho Assyri
ans woro Inlaid with Ivory and
precious metals. The wood used was
mostly cedar and ebony. Solomon's
bed was of cedar of Lebanon. Tho
furnlturo of Greece wns oriental In
form, and from this tho Romans ab
sorbed many ideas. Tho Roman
tnbles woro of marbles or rare woods.
They used gold and silver plentifully,
even cooking utensils being made of
these precious metals.
Most of the medieval furniture of
Italian make was richly gilded and
painted. In tho north of Europo
carved oak was used to n greater ex
tent. The feudal halls were furnish
ed with benches carved and pnneled.
Chests of onk or Italian cypress woro
used as receptacles for clothes and
tapestries. Tho oak coffer with
wrought iron bands shown in the
picture Is of French mnko, of the lat
ter half of tho thirteenth century.
Tho RennlBsanco mado n great
chnngo In furnlturo making. Cabi
nets and paneling were done In tho
outlines of palaces and temples. In
Klorcuco, Dome, Vonlco, and Milan
thero bogau on n largo scalo tho man
ufacture of sumptuouo cabinets,
tables, chairs, and chests. Spain,
Franco, nnd Germany soon followed
the fashion, and in England Henry
VIII groatly encouraged the art of
furnlturo mnklng.
Then enmo a porlod of notnblo de
velopment In furniture making, tho
eighteenth century. From being
masslvo nnd exceedingly scarce and
costly furniture becamo If Ght, plenti
ful nnd chenp.
