ness OF space they represent, deserve no
better name. Exactly the same principle OF
heating is applied TO all cooking devices
There are all kinds Of utensils that have
their independent heating centers. These
can be used wherever wire can be tapped,
but there are also devices similar to coal
and gas ranges by which cooking may be
done through the use Of the ordinary pot
and kettle. These are portable stoves or
disk heaters and ovens, the former consist
ing Of "A fiat round surface similar In ape
pearance to a large stove lid and can be
carried from place to place as saucepan.
The electric oven is usually made of
stamped steel on a cast iron base. 1t is
light and portable the ordinary size which
IS claimed to be large enough for the do
nestle requirements OF the ordinary family
weighing but forty pounds The oven has
double lined walls, lined with asbestos to
hold in the heat, and the baking space
within the walls is about II by 20 inches.
It is provided with regulating switch for
controlling the temperature.
There are many little devices Of household
use which are recognized for their great
convenience If not economy. The nursery
milk warmer is one OF them. This is a
combination of copper nickel-plated vessel
with a removable nickel-plated tube heater
coiled in form to surround the nursing bot
tie when placed in the vessel. 1t is claimed
that after the electric switch is turned the
temperature of the milk will rise from 30
to 40 degrees in three minutes. This con-
venience in a bedroom must certainly be
appreciated by weary mothers whose Office
1t is to respond to the cry of the babe in
the ''wee small hours of the night"
Ar other convenient device is the electric
heating pads which calls to mind the
ancient warming pans of New England ana
certifies to a distinct step of progress from
the old methods. But its distinctive
triumph is the doing away with the shocks
of cold or heat incident to the use of the
water bottle. The electric pad is provided
with an outer removable covering of elder
down and an inner removable covering OF
fine muslin. The heating apparatus Is in
closed In woven asbestos and is provided
with long flexible cord and plug quickly
connecting II to the fixture. 1t Is also fur
nished with a switch to turn the heat of
or on as required and a thermostat, or heat
controlling device, which regulates the tenn
perature to a given degree. The electric
heating bag is regarded as a great con-
venience in sick room. There are many
other electrical heating devices. which IL
they are not necessities are at least
Injuries. The curling iron heater for
women and the cigar lighter for men are
among them
A device which shows distinct advant-
age over others of its kind is the electric
laundry iron. This has come into more ex-
tensive use than possibly anything else in
its class. The only inconvenience is that
the iron has a string to 1t which may some-
times get into ones way. But 1t is the
string, or cord, which keeps the iron hot
by transmitting a constant current of cleo
tricity to It and maintaining the desired
degree OF heat.

Outdoing TeIeEraphy.

Prepared, as he believes to revolutionlze
the world Of telegraphy with a brand-new
system, and establish 1900 musical wireless
stations throughout America, to greatly
cheaper the cost of messages instantly
transmitted, Rev. Father Joseph Murgas
the inventive Roman Catholic priest OF
Wilkes-Barre, Pa, witnessed his first con-
spicuous public triumph on the ed ult.
As there is a $iO,0OO,OOO concern already or
ganized to take up and exploit his inven-
ton, and, as it's representatives were on
hand to witness his experiment there is
plenty OF ground to look for great develop
ments along Father Murgas' new lines.
This new one differs from other wireless
systems, reports the Philadelphia Record.
Instead OF using the Morse code or alphabet
Of dots and dashes each letter is d!stin-
guished by a musical tone, which enables
messages to be sent and received at a
speed eight TO ten times greater than that
attained by other systems. Superiority is
claimed for 1t because OF the speed with
which messages can be sent and because of
the double-tone musical apparatus used.
which prevents the catching of messages
except by other stations similarly attuned.
Officials OF the Universal Aether Tele-
graph company of Philadelphia were pres
ent, and were delighted with the results

General Thomas II. Hubbard was, talking
in New York about the advertisement for
an optimistic surgeon that Lieutenant
Peary inserted In the papers before the de-
parture OF his expedition.
General Hubbard subscribed $4,000 TO the
expedition. Therefore, 1t is easy to see That
he has profound interest in 1t.
"Peary in his advertisement was right, ="
he said. 1T is as needful that the expedi-
tion's physician be CHEEKY optimist as
that he be practical surgeon. Optimism
and good spirits so far in a voyage like
this one. Perhaps 1t is because there has
not been enough optimism and good cheer
among men In the past that the north
pole has not yet been found.
when It is found, an optimlst, command
ing a band of optimists, will hnd 1t. and
there win be no such cynic in that resoIute
and successful crew as the one which
sailed with Peary on an earlier expedition.
He was indeed a cynic. Let me give
you an example Of his disposition. With
Peary one glorious night he paced tho deck.
Pointing to the sky, ablaEe with splendid
planets, Peary said:
Isn't that beautiful star?'
The cynic with a grunt replied
did you ever see an ugly one?' New

This company, organized for the promo
tion OF patents and the extension OF the
system, has organized with a capital stock
Of 100000. Philadelphia capitalists are
largely interested. Fifteen thousand inland
stations are being planned. and, II present
arrangements are carried out a Murgas
station will be located in every city of inn
portance in the United States. where per-
son can send an aerogram for one-ffth Of
what It now costs to transmit an ordinary
telegram.
Lieutenant Commander s. S. Robson of
Washington ID. c., Of the bureau OF equip
ment OF the United States navy, and the
mayor OF wilkes-Barre and many other in
vlted guests from various parts of the state
were present The test was conducted be-
tween experimental stations twenty-five
miles apart, which had been erected at
wilkes-Barre and Scranton, and was highly
successful. Every message sent from either
station was accurately recorded at the
other station. The first Official message
sent was by Mayor Kirkendall Of Wilkes
Barre 10 Mayor ConnelI of Scranton, and a
reply was received in three minutes from
the latter station.
Messages were transmitted and received
with wonderful rapidity, between forty-five

through the air from the towers in this
city to those In Scranton. 1t is claimed
that with Tooth part Of the power required
by any other system the Murgas wireless
can enclrcle the globe. The DeForest ma
chine cannot possibly send more than
eighteen words q minute, and the highest
attained by the Marooni is twenty. With
the system of Murgas fifty words a minute
were sent without discrepancy.
Father Murgas is pastor of the Slavak
Roman Catholic church of Wilkes-Barre,
and has devoted all of his leisure time for
nearly ten years to perfection of his sys-
TEN. While messages have been sent back
and forth for several months the inventor
has been busy developing certain improve
ments which he says now make his appara-
tus thoroughly practical and efficient
Father Murgas says that his instruments
are so delicately adjusted that they can In
tercept messages sent by other systems
and says that he has intercepted several
messages sent by ocean liners.
