nARCoNI AND THE FUTURE.

Gulielmo Marconi was born in Italy
on the 17th OF April, 1875. He has an
excellent face, is slim and virile. He
has been experimenting for years. In
boyhood he developed talents that
preaccord with his recent great Sue
cess. He Is half Italian and a Irish.
His mother was a Miss Jameson, of
Dublin He is well educated having
been in a college and university, the

through space FOR long distances, and

himself TO this subject. and spent five
