AT Hammerfest, Norway, a point in
touch with the Atlantic cable, the first
wireless station has been established.
Station No. 2 will be at the base of
the expedition on Danes island, and
wireless station No. 3 will be in the
airship. The aerial" which on land
and on sea-going ships Is mast, in
this case will be a wire suspended
from the airship, and which can be
coiled up out of the way when not
In use. The experts in wireless teleg-
raphy have gone over the situation
in the light of conditions as they are
likely to find them in the arctic re-
gion, and have given it as their opin-
ion that there is nothing in these con-
ditions to prevent the maintenance of
virtually constant communication be-
tween the airship and the Dane island

ENTER FIELD OF POLITICS.
American Federation of Labor An
nounces Campaign Programme.
The Organization Claims Interests
of Its Members Have Been Ig-
nOred by Congress.

Washington, July 24.-The executive
council Of the American Federation
of Labor Sunday made good its de-
claration Of several months to enter
the field Of politics in the interest Of
trades union movements and to urge
all friends Of organized labor to elect
to political Offices men known to be
favorable to labor's cause. At the
headquarters of the federation, the
council Sunday issued it's Campaign
programme" addressed "To All Organ.
lied Labor and Friends in the United
States"
1t sets out that the trades union
movement has kept and proposes to
keep pace with the rapid changing
industrial affairs and that the working
people cannot hope to maintain their
rights or a progressive position in the
varying phases Of modern society un-
less the organize, exercise all those
functions, which, as workmen and cit
liens, it is their privilege and their
duty to exercise.
1t is declared that the labor makes
no demand on government and society
which is not equally accorded to all
the people of this country and that ut
can and will be satisfied with nothing
less"
The proposed campaign is based up
on the allegation that little attention
has been paid to the enactment OF
laws prepared by organized labor and
presented to congress, for the relief
of those wrongs and the attainment
of those rights to which labor and the
common people are justly entitled
and which are essentially necessary
for their welfare.
The council issues word of eau
tion that the movement must not de-
generate into q scramble for Office, but
at should be determined effort, free
absolutely from all partisanship of
every name and character to secure
the legislation we deem necessary and
essential to the welfare and happi-
ness Of all our people.
1t is expressly stated that where any
Congressman or state legislator has
proven himself a true friend to the
rights of labor, he should be support
ed and no candidate nominated against
him."

BACK TO PULPIT.
What Food Did for a Clergyman.

A minister of Elizabethtown tells
how Grape-Nuts food brought him
back to his pulpit: Some 5 years ago
| had an attack Of what seemed to be
La Grippe which left me In COM
plete state of collapse and I suffered
for some time with nervous prostra-
tion. My appetite failed, l lost flesh
till | was a mere skeleton, life was
burden to me, l lost interest In every
thing and almost in everybody save
my precious wife.
"Then on the recommendation Of
some friends l began to use Grape
Nuts food. At that time I was mis-
cradle skeleton, without appetite and
hardly able to walk across the room;
had ugly dreams at night, no disposi-
tion to entertain or be entertained and
began to shun society.
"I finally gave up the regular minis
try, indeed I could not collect my
thoughts on any subject, and became
almost a hermit. After had been
using the Grape-Nuts food for short
time discovered that l was taking
on new life and my appetite began to
improve; l began to sleep better and
my weight increased steadily; had
lost some 80 pounds, but under the
new food regime have regained al
most my former weight and have
greatly improved in every way.
II feel that owe much to Grape
Nuts and can truly recommend the
food to all who require powerful re-
building agent, delicious to taste and
always welcome"

THE ACCESSORIES OF THE
WELLMAN POLAR EXPEDITION
Some OF the Wonders of Science That Are to Be Used
in the Attempt to Reach the Pole

what may be called the accessories
OF the equipment of the Wellman
polar expedition are by no means
least in point of interest in the novel
undertaking to reach the north pole
In an airship. The way in which the
explorer has utilized the latest sci
entiflc discoveries and inventions In
his coming battle with the elements
OF the north form one Of the most
interesting chapters in the story of
preparation. With the exception of
the airship itself the wireless tele-
graph and the motor sledge, or, as
Mr.. Wellman calls 1t, "the mechanical
dog stand out as of peculiar interest.
Should Mr.. Wellman and his COM
panions be successful in reaching the
pole the wireless telegraph instrument
Is expected to inform the world of
the act Of placing the American flag
on that important point Of the worlds
surface within a few minutes after 1t
has occurred. Should anything hap

the custom being for four men Ia

spread over the pile weapons, afford

They can be utilized in many wayi

In this respect, as in all other ways,
the Wellman expedition will differ

wireless telegraph apparatus that
forms an. important part Of the i'm
pedimenta Of the expedition. The
wireless telegraph service, like the air
ship, while not having been brought
to the highest stage of perfection or
certainty Of successful operation,
nevertheless has become commercially
practicable and reasonably reliable.
Recent tests at sea have heightened
the possible communication distance
to more than 1000 miles without re-
lay. A complete wireless outfit forms
a part of the expeditions apparatus,
and one of the five men who will
make the trip in the airship is an
expert wireless telegraph operator and
mechanician.

station. In its present use at sea
there are often atmospheric disturb
ances which temporarily destroy the
usefulness Of the wireless apparatus,
but these periods have been brief. 1t
is believed thoroughly by the experts
in wireless telegraphy that nothing
short of a catastrophe which wrecks
the ship and renders all apparatus
useless will prevent the publishing
daily Of dispatches from the explor-
ers sailing poleward in the monster
airship. AS the magnetic pole of the
earth has been found 1000 miles from
the mathematical pole, on the coast
of North America, it is reasonably
certain that at the mathematical pole
there will be encountered no magnetic
disturbances which will destroy the
usefulness of the wireless apparatus.

BOTH PASSED.

A prominent lawyer says that many
years ago he went West, but, as he
got no clients, and stood a good
chance of starving to death, he de-
cided to come East again, Without
any money he boarded a train for
Nashville, Tenn, intending to seek
employment as reporter on one Of the
daily newspapers. When the con-
ductor called for his ticket, he said:
Il am on the staff of the --- OF
Nashville; | suppose you will pass
me?"
The conductor loked at him sharply.
"The editor OF that paper is in the
smoker; come with me; If he indenti-
fees you, all right"
He followed the conductor into the
smoker; the situation was explained,
Mr., Editor said:
"Oh, yes, ! recognize him as n OF
the staff it is all right"
Before leaving the train the lawyer
again sought the editor,
why did you say you recognized
me? I'm not on your paper"
"I'm not the editor, either. I'm
travelling on his pass, and was scared
to death lest you should give me
away"

The Only Time When He Does.

A Subscriber" once wrote TO an
editor and asked:
please tell me, does a mar in run
ming around a tree go before or behind
HIMSELF"
The editor answered:
THAT depends. If he Is trying to
catch himself, necessarily he follows
himself, and consequently goes be-
hind. II, on the contrary, he is run
ming away from himself, the deduc-
ton leads to the very obvious. con-
ciusion that he precedes himself, and
consequently goes before. II he sue
eeeds in catching up with himself,
and passes himself, at the moment of
passing he neither ~precedes nor fol-
lows himself, but both he and him
self are running even. This is the
only East where he does not go be-
fore or behind himself"

A LIVE TOPIC.

A member OF the faculty OF the

"Harper's Weekly" tells of the sad
case of 4 young woman from Indiana
who was DESTROYS OF attaining social
prominence in Chicago.
Soon after her arrival there she
made the acquaintance of a student
at the university to whom she took
a great fancy. Evidently it was at
this time she realized for the first time
that her early education had been
neglected, for she said to a friend:
II suppose that, as he is a college
man, III have to be awful careful
what | say. WhstN l talk about to
him.
The friend suggested history as a
safe topic, To her friends astonish-
ment she took the advice seriously,
and shortly commenced IN earnest to
