Seeing ity Telephone.
"How well you're looking
this morning!" says tho face-
tious man in telephonic greet-
ing to his friend a hundred
miles away. Mr. J. B. Fowler,
of Portland, Ore., has taken
tho nub out of this joke by
inventing an apparatus by
which images displayed before
a lens at one end of a tele-
phone wire are projected up-
on a screen at t he .other end.
Mr. Fowler invites his visitors
to talk with his daughter.
They place the telephone
transmitter to ear. apply the
eye to an aparture in the tele-
phone box and see the young
woman in minature speaking
5,000 feet away. Mr. Fowler
is preparing now to show a
train in motion in his inven-
tion. He has no doubt of its
commercial practicability and
declares that within a few
years it will be in operation
throughout the country. For
some it may be a boon. For
others it may be a curse. Who
has not telephoned when he
wanted to avoid a face-to-face
interview? What will frisky
•husbands "detained at tho of-
fice" say to a machine that
shows to suspicious wives the
chips that pass in the night?

Business Changes.
capita! could bring into com-
petition with it. Yet it has
won against the largest and
wealthiest concerns giving a
decisive proof that co-opera-
tive industry on a small scale
can turn out the best quality
of product. It has taken a
number of years of up-hill en-
deavor to secure this result,
but it has come at last. The
result seems to point out an
important lesson, namely, that
the farmers thus encouraged,
may find it possible to take
milling processes into their
own hands, and better them-
selves in a w:ay that will solve
some of the difficulties they
have had to meet." •

[he Business (iange.
An exchange truthfully
says: "a newspaper may
boom a town through its edi-
torial and news columns, but
a critical investor looks to
the advertising columns for
substantial evidence of push
and life. To him they 'ire
therm'ometors measuring the
intensity, public warmth; they
are the pulse which indicates
the healthy condition of the
collective body of the people:
they tell him whether or not
the community is up to the
times in business matters.
Just so: if you was looking for
a place to locate, you would
go to a town where the bus"
iness men was pushing their
respective business with some
sort of advertising. See
