A New Invention.
J. P. Clark, general manager of the
D., Y., A. A. & J. electric road, has
been granted a patent on his flexible
mesh rail bond, and a growing Ypsilanti industry has been given added
impetus. The bond is manufactured
on Congress street, between Huion
street and the bridge, and a force of
men and boys are kept busy turning
out the queer looking devices. The
bond is designed to take the placa of
the common copper rod which has previously been used to join the ends of
trails on electric roads. As the electrical current passes through the rails
it is obviously necessary that the ends
of the rails be fastened together by, a
good electrical conductor. A copper
rod was at first used, but later other
devices were employed, and finally J.
P. Clark invented his flexible mesh
bond.—Daily Press.

Comprehensive Treatise Written by
Egyptian 7.J00 Years Ago.
A roll of papyrus acquired by Dr.
Ebers, in the vicinity of Thebes,
Egypt, in the winter of 1872, from an
Arab who made ancient grave robbing a business, after investigation
and translation was deposited in the
library of the University of Leipsic.
The script of this papyrus is hieratic;
the date of it is said to be over 7,000
years ago. It is a comprehensive
treatise on medicine. Diseases of the
abdomen, the chest, the heart, the
eyes, the ears and so on are carefully
arranged and described in a mf.nner
that would command - aspect at the
present day. For i. tance, of the
heart, the papyrus classifies the troubles as fatty degeneration, dilation,
carditis, angina or spasm, hypertrophy (enlargement), thrombosis (plugging) and dropsy. Of medicines over
seven hundred* different substances
are enumerated aad they are " prescribed in pills, in tablets, in capsules,"
in decoctions, powders, inhalations,
lotions, ointments, plasters.

Napoleon's Bad Handwriting.
M. Houssaye attributes the muddle,
over orders at Waterloo to Napoleon's
execrable handwriting. This was %he.
opinion of the writing master ef Ah
examire Btim^si: ''The emperor never
lost a batile except by his bad handwriting. His officers could never
make out what he meant. Remember
this, Alexandre, and make your down-
strokes-heavy and your up-strokes
light!'* Grouchy declares that during
the battle of "Waterloo he could not
make out whether Napoleon wrote
"bataille gaghee" or "bataille enga-
gee," and he conjecturally read "battle gained."—Andrew Lang in London Post.
