Columbus, Ohio, May ao, 1903. Six years ago I bad a severe attack of Inflammatory Rheumatism. I was laid up in bed for alz months, and the doctors I had did me no good. They changed med icines every week and nothing they pre scribed seemed to help me. Finally I be ran theuseof S.S.S. My knee and elbow joints were swollen terribly, and at one time my Joints were ao swollen and pain ful that I could not close them when opened. I was so bad that I could sot move knee or foot.

Throughout the forests, from the BU Johns to Vancouver, lumber camps le hmglng to the suiue Ink-rests sre con nected by telephone, the Hue running tbonco to the saw mills or wood pulp works at frontier towns, from which communication can be held even to the metropolis, It wss formerly the custom of each lumber interest to maintain a force of couriers, like the voyagers of the Hud son Bay Company, and these hardy men, with knapsack, would trsve! twenty-five miles a (fay through the wilderness, over rough forest paths. Now the mill calls each camp In turn( at stated hours and receives re ports and gives Instructions to the foreman and It Is not necessary to dwell on the commercial advantages of maintaining such close touch be tween headquarters snd outposts In any enterprise. Inters are read to men snowed lu the forest nifty or a hundred miles away and answer dic tated by the lumbermen to a stenog rapher, who transcribes them In the office and then malls them to their homes. Tbe relative contentment among the men which la established by this fre quent communication Is highly advan tageous to the working force, and therefore to the employers. The applications of the telephone to the operations of logging sre alike novel and useful. Tbe lines sre run upon forest trees along the banka of rivers, and telephones which are placed In sheltering boxes are attached to trees and connected with the Hue. The bete uolr of logging ia tue col lecting of the loga together at some nurrow place In a turbulent stream and piling upon each other lu a "Jam" to which contributions are made by every log floating down the river to this spot The formation or a Jam results from some obstacle and generally occurs without warning, and It requires great labor, fraught with peril, to remove the loga from their constricted posi tion. It Is frequently necessary to use dynamite, and much lumber ia destroy ed by such explosions. With the use of the telephone warn ing of the Initial formation of a Jain can be given by one of the men pa trolling the banka, who telephones to the men up the river to stop the fur ther flow of logs at calm places termed "tripe," and It Is an easy matter to break the small Jam, for which fur ther a Ml stance can be had by sum moning men from points lower down the stream. Aa soon aa the email Jam Is removed the men above are told through the telephone to release the logs held at tbe "trip" and tbe stream of logs Is re sumed. Under former conditions a larger number of men were employed, and when a Jiwn was begun it was neces sary to send messengers from one to three miles through the forest In va rious directions to direct the gangs to stop the flow of logs and others to summon help who are down the stream to come up and break the Jam, which bad meanwhile time to ampli fy, and then, after the Jam had been broken, second messengers must be sent up the stream to release the logs at the "trip." By the promptness of telephonic communication the' rate of sending logs down the stream is Increased by tbe avoidance of delays. Beyond this the use of the telephone renders log-dtivlng feasible on the smaller rapid, rough streams, where It was formerly out of the question. Chicago Chronicle. World Seeks Water Power. Tbe lessou of the use of Niagara Falls for generating electricity has been put to worldwide application. says the New York World. Through out the world falling water, according to a paper rend before the Iliitlsh As aociatlon by Campbell Ewlnton, yields to man's use au energy equal to 1,483,- 3!H) horse power, of which Great Brit ain figures for only 11,00(1 horse power. Tho British Aluminum -Company gets 7,000 horso power from the falls of Foyers and It expects presently to procure 17,000 horse power from Loch Leven. The North Wales Electric Power Company is about to tap Lake Llydaw, on Snowdon, and hopes to ob tain 8,200 horse power for every work ing day of nine hours. Finally, the Scotch Water Power Syndicate Is peer ing round in quest of waters that it can imprison at lofty levels and'eo generate electric power. From Loch Sloy, 757 feet above Iioch Lomond, it is. going to get 8,000 horse power, and at Ardlul, higher up, it proposes to get further energy. Even a modest stream that drops several hundred feet may be a source of power. Stated In Diploma tio fashion. The Fierce Fellow So you wouldn't say that Longfellow was a liar, eh?
