Among the marvels of delicate mechanism is an apparatus invented bv Dr. Augustus D. Waller, F.K.S., of the London University, by which it is possible to detect liars. .This is done I>y Inking electric records of the effect of eross-exam-ination on a criminal's nervous system to iiidionie whether lie is ttfling the truth. Dr.' Waller discovered that the resistance <.f the skin to electricity varies with the state of the emotions, i:nd has so developed the discovery that even apprehension enn plainly bo "spotted" by the jlnctuations of a spot of light on a scale. "This." ho says, "is how we shall get the criininrf.. He. will bo trying to- prove an alibi. Ho will look the Judge in the eye and my lio whs never, eay, at Chelsea, in 'his life. Now w» apply my method. Attach tho electric wires to his hands mid then show him a few pictures, including one of Hie place the criminal was suspected of having visited. The others will give negative results, but when he is shown that particular one. tho result will bo that the light wi'.l jump—and there is no power in mortal man to stop it." Tho pension system spread* apaoo owing to the war. • Altogether, in tho Rritish Tsles, the number of pensioners.— men. woman, and children—ls 2,858,500. This totals up to one out of every 10 in the country, or ono person in every third family.
