Holy church teaches us that if wie are conscious of having done our neighbor an injury through any misuse of our power of speech we must endeavor to Give satisfacmake amends. tion to the best of our ability, and undo the harm we have occasioned.

For every idle word thou must give an account! Oh, how many idle words I have spoken One of the most interesting inventions of the last few years is an application of the discovery that telephone messages may be recorded magnetically on-perfectly smooth steel wire without leaving the slightest trace visible to the eye, even when aided' by the most powerful microscope. When a telephone is equipped with this wonderful bit of apparatus the wire passes rapidly near the diaphragm of the sending instrument, while a message is being Spoken into it, being rolled upon one spool as it uncoils itself ' from another The message having been completed, the process is reversed, and the wire slowly unwinding from the first spool is capable of reproducing in the diaphragm of the. receiving instrument the words which were spoken by the sender; this even after the lapse of 'an indefinite length of time. Oh, my friends, did1 it ever occur to. you that the very walls of the room in which you live may be capable of recording the sounds Which are uttered within them?
