Ten Words Or Less Ten Cents
POPULAR ELECTRICITY


Nothing is of more interest to the
average reader In these days than
electricity. Its wonders never cease.
New inventions and discoveries are
being made all the time, and practi-
cally every one of them concerns,
more or less directly, the everyday
citizen. For this reason it is a posi-
tive delight to get hold of a periodi-
cal which treats this great subject in
way all can understand. We find
this in the monthly magazine, Pop
ular Electricity in Plain English, >"
published at Chicago.
The June number of this magazine
is particularly attractive, it's lead
ing article being by Thomas A. Ed
ison on THE Tomorrow of Electric
ity and Inventions. This is fol-
lowed by many other good things by
electrical engineers and experts.
One Of the unique departments in
the magazine is the Popular Elec-
tricity Wireless Club" Membership
to this club can be had by readers of
the magazine who have constructed
and are operating wireless appara-
tus or systems. There is the tElec-
tricity In the Household" and the
Junior Section all teeming with
highly instructive articles written in
a simple and interesting manner,

JUNE TECHNICAL WoRLD.

One OF the most interesting maga-
zines for June Is the Technical
World, brimming full of entertain
Ing and instructive articles. This
magazine always picks out the sto-
not fiction-far from it, but are even
more strange than fiction and all are
attractively illustrated. For instance,
the June number starts off with an
article entitled, "Racial Fertility and
War" by Henry M. Hyde. This is
followed by a story on Great Rival
of Panama Canal" by Charles Fred
erick Carter, which starts off in the
following fascinating manner:
What shall It profit Nation to
squander more than a third of bill
lion dollars in digging an inter-ocean
canal when another Nation already
has in successful operation rival
transportation line that can cut rates
below the possibility Of competition
by the canal and still make a
profit?
This Is the conundrum that has
confronted the people of the United
States since January / 1907, when
Mexico opened the Tehuantepec Ma
tional Railway for traffic. 1t will
continue to confront them so long as
the railroad remains in operation In
spite of all the rhetoric that can be
touched off in congress or out OF It..
"On paper, of course, water trans
portation can put the railroads out
of business with one hand tied. 1t
has been demonstrated beyond the
possibility of successful contradic-
tion again and yet again that a
steamship, or a steamboat, or even
a canal boat, can haul freight so
much cheaper than a train that the
latter cannot even earn interest on
its bonds. AS a matter of prosaic
history, however, it will be remem-
bered that the railroads, even in
their crude days of undevelopment,
simply took all the traffic away from
the canals, which had had some
years the start Of them, leaving the
canal boats to rot and the canals
themselves to degenerate into duck
ponds"
There is a timely article on RES
cues from Sunken Submarines" by
j. Hartley Knight. Other leading
articles are:F"Racial Fertility and
War" by Henry M. Hyde; Final
Work on the Roosevelt DAM" by
Rene Bache and Ralph e. Jenney;
"Our Billion Dollar Toy" by Rube
Borough; "To Get Well at Home"
by f. G. Moorhead; Avalanche Pi-
oneers Huge Tunnel" by William
Thornton Prosser; "Absurdities in
Our Postal Service" Robert Frank
lin; "Our Proudest Ancient Millard, I"
by Bailey Millard; "Fishes Helped to
Build Nests" by Richard e. Benton;
ITO Grow Your Own Meerschaum, !"
by Guy e. Mitchell; Revolution In
Gas-M Making" by Henry j. Lord;
Running the Home by Electricity"
by Chester Carton; popular science

Whv tn. Wind Waits.

In his book on "The Picturesque st.
Lawrence" Clifton Johnson tells of
the curious superstition of Montreal
which explains why the wind is al
ways blowing at the point where St.
Sulpice and Notre Dame streets meet,
close by the towering cathedral.
1t seems that one day, while the
church was in process Of building, the
Wind and the Devil were walking
down Notre Dame street, and the
Devil after regarding with a frown
of disapproval the graceful outlines Of
the new edihce rising before him ex-
claimed:
"What is this7 / never saw it be
fore"
"Very likely not" responded the
Wind, "and dare you to go in there. :"
you dare me to do that, do your
cried the Devil, with a sneer. "Well,
will go in If you will promise to wait
here until come out"
Agreed" said the Wind.
So his satanic majesty went in. But
he has not come out yet, and the Wind
Is still waiting for him at the corner.

Elbert Hubbard tells in the May

this committee every trade, business,
profession and art in Grand Rapids
is represented. The committee meets
twice a month to discuss everything
that pertains to the best interests of
their city.
In order to gain the public sympa-

the best moves along this line is a

The first of the summer numbers
of this remarkable woman's maga-

The fiction Is from the pens Of

still going merrily along, and such
popular writer's as Alice Brown, An
