"club ladies' of our town, but

tent, especially so in larger cities,

TALKING AT SEA.
Two Ocean Liners Crossing I'm OPP
posite Directions Use the
Wireless Method.

The marvels of wireless telegraphy
are great enough to render a recent
use of the system not sufficiently won
derfu1 to be extraordinary, perhaps,
yet the incident reported by Cham
bers' Journal is one which appeals to
the imagination.
Two Cunard liners, the Lucania and
the Campania, were crossing the At
lantic in opposite directions. Each,
knowing the date of the others sail
Ing, could make a calculation as to
the hour when they would most likely
meet. When the hour came the vessels
were too far apart to sight each other.
Presently, however, the warning bell
of the wireless telegraphic apparatus
in the Campania tinkled, and the mes
sage was spelled out: "Are you there?
-Lucania." And then the two vessels,
still invisible to each other, and, as it
was found, 36 miles apart, talked for
some hours, exchanging experiences
as to the weather, and finally parting
with the word "good-by" when they
were 140 miles asunder.
Such a conversation carried on be-
tween vessels in the open ocean. sep
arated by such a vast stretch of wa
ter and out of sight of each other, is
an impressive illustration of what
wireless telegraphy means.

KILLING OF THE cHINCHILLA.
Fur Dealers In This Country Are
Deeply Interested In Its Danger
of determination,

Fur dealers are much interested in
the news from Chilli that the chin
chilla has almost been exterminated
by fur hunters and that stringent
measures will have to be applied to
prevent the extinction of the animal
there. In spite of laws for it's pro-
lection in Bolivia, the chinchilla has
almost entirely disappeared from
that republic, and furriers fear that
it may disappear in Chilli as well, re-
ports the New York Sun.
According to customs reports the
number of the animals killed in Chill
has increased greatly in recent years.
The number of chinchilla pelts ex-
ported in 1900 was COS, 300, more than
double the exports of 1898.
A scientific society in Chilli has al
ready drafted law forbidding the
hunting of the chinchilla for four or
five years in certain regions, and al
lowing hunting elsewhere for only
half the year. 1t also forbids the use
of firearms, dogs, fire and, in fact,
everything except traps.
The fur dealers expect that the
law will be enacted and predict that
the price of chinchilla fur will soon
be very much higher.

The Strawberry Bed.

# the plants were allowed to run
over the entire strawberry bed last
summer, paths or walks must be cut
and the plants turned under or used for
setting new beds; Young plants with
clean, white roots, may be used for
planting from these beds, tho, perhaps,
plants taken from beds not intended
for fruiting may be preferred. A
plant Of medium size with an abund-
ance Of roots is better than large
plant with few roots.
The mulch should he drawn from the
crowns Of the plants as soon as freezing
weather is over, and trodden down be:
tween the rows; do the work while the
mulch is moist. Get down on the
knees, draw it from the center Of two
rows, and press il firmly under the
knees. Should the bed be very weedy
| it may. be best to remove the mulch en-
tirely, cultivate, clean up thoroly, ane
replace between the rows just before
the blossoms begin to open. I. In a we
season or with a very wet soil, the lat
I ter treatment may tend to a coars
growth Of plant and little fruit.

Aa.Plant Marvel.

Every year I grow at least one plant
that is a triumph Of nature, if not Of
art. I have an eold-fashioned stoneware
churn that is urn-shaped, and it is
cracked enough TO- allow drainage,
therefore it has become fiowerpot.
In the spring, when danger Of frost is
past. the churn goes out into the yard,
and into it goes some kind Of a thrifty
begonia.. Besides watering, /. then give
it no-eare at all. By fall the plant, in
size and shape, resembles bushel bas-
ket, and the leaves are as large as ones
hand. ss>f-s225}ssfe3 ~ 80 HI
