NEW DEVICE
PROBES TRUTH
; HOW SCIENCE DETECTS LIARS.
When a man is telling a lie he
> breathes differently from when he
, is telling the truth. The difference
; was discovered by means of some
, tests made upon his students by
Prof. Benussi of Graz.
He prepared cards bearing let
ters, figures and diagrams and dis
* tributed these among his pupils.
t These were required to describe
the cards correctly, except in cer
tain cases when the cards were
marked with a red star, and the
students receiving them were re
quired to describe them falsely.
Each student was watched care
fully by his fellows, who, ignorant
of the nature of the card, tried
to judge from his manner whether
he was telling the truth or not. The
watchers were unable to judge with
any certainty.
I Under tile direction of Prof. Ben
! ussi the time occupied in inspira
j tion and expiration was measured.
1 and the measurement was taken
i aSain immediately after he finish
ed. It was found that the ut
terance of a false statement al
ways diminished the quotient ob
| tained by dividing the time of in
p | spiration by the time of expiration.
■ J Dr. Anton Rose, commenting on
. I these results, remarks that the dis
! covery furnishes a certain criterion
between truth and falsehood. For
i even a clever liar is likely to fail
| in an attempt to escape detection
by breathing irregularly. Prof. Ben
ussi having discovered that men
are unable voluntarily to change
their respiration so as to affect
the result.

A TRANSFER SOLUTION.
Printed pictures from magazines,
newspapers, folders, etc., may be
; transferred to paper, cloth, card
board, glass or china with the fol
lowing solution:
One bar of common soap is dis
solved in a gallon of hot water, to
which one-half pint of turpentine
is added. After it has stood for
j a night stir well and bottle. Th*
j solution is applied to the print
i with a soft brush or one’s fingers
I and the material to which it is to
| be transferred is placed upside
| down on it. The back of the ma
| terial is then rubbed and the de
sign is transferred.
A picture may be transferred to
glass for the purpose of a lantern
slide. In such a case the glass
must be varnished with a perfectly
! transparent varnish before trans
i ferring.
ESSAD PASHA HAS AN IDEA.
PARIS, April 10.—“I have just
seen the French army,” said Essad
Pasha, the pretender to the throne
of Albania, while in the city re
cently, “on the fighting line and if
I were the Kaiser I should weep.
He must know that his fate is
sealed.
“While I have seen endless
j things to admire at the front, noth
■ ing has struck me as more re
markable than the spirit of the
officers and men. Not only are
they in splendid physical condition
but their moral is excellent. I
; have talked to them and let them
j talk to me. Their calmness and
J confidence are unspeakable. Quite
I near me some big German shells
exploded. The troops did not tak©
| the slightest notice.
| “The friendly relations between
! the officers and men and the af
fectionate bearing of the generals
to the subalterns which the French
army shows, are of vast import
ance.
“It is an army of lion hearts. I.
as an old soldier, after a life
spent in fighting, declare that such
a splendid army never existed be
fore.”

SOON BE ALL
BRUNETTES
THE DECREASE OF BLONDES.
Blondes are decreasing in num
ber, says a leading anthropologist.
At no very distant date the human
race will have darkened to such
an extent that people of the
blonde type will be regarded as
curiosities. It is a startling de
velopment, but is all in the direct
ion of progress, as people of fair
complexion are more liable to sick
ness than those of the brunette
order.
Modem life in crowded cities
makes a severe tax on Nature's
forces, and in endeavoring to build
up a disease-resisting race she is
forced to eliminate the blondes,
with their inferior stamina. From
an artistic point of view the fact
is, of course, to be regretted, for
golden hair and blue eyes have
been the delight of poets and paint
ers for ages.
That the type is gradually dis
appearing, however, there seems to
be no doubt, for many specific in
stances have been noted, especially
j in America, of the loss by emi
I grants from countries where blondes
j abound of the distinctive complex
j ion and hair and eye-colors of their
ancestors, the type darkening with
each generation.
