To Bake a Ham.

Unless when too salt. from not being
sufficiently soaked, ham, particularly
young and fresh one, eats much bet
ter baked than boiled and remains
longer good. The safer plan is to lay
1t in plenty of cold water overnight.
The following day soak it for an hour
or more in warm water. wash 1t thor
oughly, trim smoothly off all rusty
parts and lay 1t with the rind down
ward into a coarse -four and water
paste rolled to about an inch thick.
Moisten the edges, draw and pinch
them together and fold them over on
the upper side Of the ham. taking
care to close them so that no gravy
can escape. Bake ii in well heated
but not fierce oven. A very small ham
will require three hours baking and
a large one five. The crust and the
skin must be removed while 1t Is hot.

Major George Owen Squier Of the
signal corps. United States army, who
recently invented a device for multi
pick telephony, has solved the prob
lem of simultaneously transmitting
two or more messages over the same
wire. A notable feature of the inven-
ton is that it has been made and pat
ented for the benefit of the public.
The essence of the new invention Is
the utilization of the earth itself In
lieu of one of the wires that hitherto
have been considered necessary TO
complete a circuit for telephony. This
principle was applied to telegraphy
some years ago. revolutioniZing that
service. At that time. thirty years
ago. Thomas A. Edison predicted that
the principle would some day be ap-
piled to telephony Now it has come.
and the prophecy has been fulfilled.
Explaining his invention. Major
Squier said: 1T means that the time
will soon come when telephony will
cost little more than nothing. We
shall use one single wire as guide
line for wireless messages. That sin
gle wire holds the messages from go
ing off into the atmosphere"
Major Squier Is native Of Michi-
gan and is forty-five years old. He
entered West Point in 1888 and was
graduated four years later. He is
assistant chief signal officer Of the
United States army.
