great measure the success OF those already
working. This is evidenced by the Arlington sta

ships receive training in their work. For this
branch OF the service building 900 feet long, SO
feet wide and two stories high has been set apart
The course IN wireless proper takes seven weeks.
The first week is given over to the study of the
theory OF wireless communication and the next
week sees the pupil at a sending key studying
and practicing the continental code. Messages
are sent by an automatic transmitter.
During the seven weeks of the wireless train
ing the pupil receives instruction In making dia-
grams OF transmitting sets and aerals and tries
his hand at repairing and overhauling the various
sets In use. At the end Of the seventh week II
he Is able to send and receive fifteen words a
minute he is stationed at a receiving booth where
he can have actual experience. Two weeks are
allowed for review before the final examination.
Before actual wireless work is taken up by the
students each one goes through a short course In
the ground work Of electrical equipment He
starts at the blacksmith shop, where he learns to
build fire properly. Then he is taught forging
welding and tempering iron and STEEL and in
structed in the of soldering iron. In the ma.
chine shop he practices on the lathe shaper drill
press milling machine, emery wheel and bench.
Engine work follows, for the naval electrician
is expected to be competent to repair any part OF
the ships electrical equipment Simple com.
pound turbine oil and gasoline engines are taken
apart and assembled, lined up and repaired.
Valves. condensers, air and circulating pumps are
mastered. There is also three weeks instruction
IN the work of interior communication and light
ing of a ship which teaches the student how to In.
stall and inspect the entire electrical equipment
Of battleship. The authorities OF the navy yard
believe that the student is not ready to take up
the actual study OF wireless communication until
he has first mastered the details OF the machinery
that makes the electrical spark possible.
While everybody knows that wireless messages
are being sent, It Ia not generally understood how

What these investigators found was that when
an electric spark jumped between two poles there
were started. in what the scientists call the ether
magnetic force lines. These force lines detached
themselves and travelled through space at a
tremendous rate of speed This speed has been
reckoned at 10000 miles a second. 1t was also
learned that these force lines went through space
In wave lengths that could be measured
Doctor Hertz found that the presence Of these
waves could be detected across room by means
OF loop OF copper wire. This was called the
Hertz loop. The ends of this loop were slightly
parted, and It found that the electric spark
on one side OF the room caused a small spark to
pass between the ends OF the Hertz loop. Sir
Oliver Lodge and William Marconi used the same
spark gap and connected one side of 1t to a copper
plate buried In the earth and the opposite side
TO wires strung IN the air. When the apparatus
was constructed in this way the electric spark
caused oscillations on the aerial wires and Gre
ated wave that could be detected at a consider
able distance.
The modern wireless station has appliances to
regulate the length of the waves that carry the
messages.
To prevent Interference each ship installation
operates different wave length and the re-
ceiving instruments either on the ships or the
land stations are able to cut in tune in those
lengths. The tuner enables an operator to change
the wave lengths on the receiving wires. and so
get In touch with the Office that is calling.
At the senate inquiry the operators from the
Carpathia and the Titanic were repeatedly asked
what and c Q D means. The effect OF these
messages was very clear to the operators but they
were not entirely sure what the letters themselves
meant Inquiries at the Marconi Offices brought
the information that the letters have sgnif1-
canoe In themselves and are simply agreed code

pert who has made a study of the
theory and knows the practice. 1T
is simply transference through space
of waves of electromagnetic energy.
When wireless operator presses
a key, spark jumps between two
pieces OF metal. These two pieces of
metal are connected with long wires,
called antennae. that are strung on
poles called aerials. The energy from
this spark is spread on these wires
and diffused in waves.
These waves have definite length,
which can be determined partly
through the power Of the sending sta
ton. The station that is receiving
these is able TO put itself in tune to
receive wave lengths of the nature
sent out by the sending station and
exclude others
Wireless relies on electromagnetic
waves as the source Of its communi-
cation. These waves are sometimes
called Hertzian waves and were made
use of for the first time in 1880 by
Prof. Amos Dolbear of Tufts college.
He applied for q patent on a wireless
system that had every essential OF the
plan followed today. He got his pat
ent in 1886, which was two years be-
fore DR.. Hertz's discoveries.

The Analysis Of an Apple"

third stage in the system Is regarding
the flavor, which are termed Sections,
OF which there are two Section | in
cludes the varieties that are sweet and
Section 2 those that are subacid or
sour. The last set OF this descrip-
tive classification is made up OF three
Subsections. The first of these in
cludes all varieties that are yellow or
green and may be blushed and even
quite covered with red in some rare
cases, but never striped. By this sys-
TEN almost any apple may be proper
ly classified, and If listed and de-
scribed in detail might be identified by
any careful student of pomology.
While there was never but one edi-
ton DR.. Warder's book on apples,
American Pomology, and that was is
sued In 1867, and many valuable va
rieties have been introduced since
that date, 1t Is even now the best OF
all our books on apples, by which they
may be studied and identified. While
there are great ranges of variation
within the individual limits of any va
riety. there are certain characteristics
that are quite constant and depend
able, and upon these any intelligent
classification must be based. Mere al
phabetical or other ordinary arrange
ment Is of much less value.
To describe an apple In such man
ner as will lead to an understanding
OF It's individual pecullarlties / have
made q drawing of specimen OF the
Delicious that was grown in California
The most important parts are named
and pointed out in such a way that
they may be studied. To begin with,
the form, which is one of the first
points that anyone will notice, may be
dat, conical, round or oblong, as looked
at from the side, and round, elliptical,
irregular or even angular when observ-
ing from either end. The size may be
large, medium or small The depres-
sion in which the stem is set is called
the cavity, and It may be regular, ir-
regular, or Tipped; large or small;
deep, medium or shallow; with

TIMELY SUGGESTIONS.

Small pieces Of toilet soap, too small
to use, should be kept In small jar.
and when a sufficient amount is col
lected boil with water until dissolved.
Use this liquid soap for the shampoo,
and there never will be the possibility
of having small PARTICLES left in Che
hair. This is an excellent soap for
the children to use, and they like It,
too, especially the boy with the grlmy
hands.
Milk that is slightly scorched may
be redeemed by putting # into clean
dish and letting It stand in cold
water.
A good way TO warm rolls or muf-
fms: Lay a cloth in colander or a
sieve, and place the rolls in it over
the teakettle; the water can be boil
Ing for the tea or coffee and the rolls
heating at the same time
Every cellar should have partition
or closet shut of from the rest, where
the potatoes, fruit and perlshable
foods may be kept at temperature
below fifty.
A most dainty dessert and one
which, II the materials are at hand,
may be prepared in a short time is
the following: Peel and cut In halves
sufficient peaches for the number to
serve. Whip cream. sweeten and ia
vor and a few marshmallows cut into
quarters.
Another unusual peach dessert is
this: Place the halves OF very ripe
peaches on slices OF angel cake and
pour over sweetened whipped cream.
Do not tax the brain after a hearty
meal, as the blood is all needed in the
digestion OF the food; II both func-
lions are at work, one must suffer.
Grape fruit salad with a French
dressing is an excellent digester at the
end of heavy meal, and makes an
appropriate dessert.
Asparagus is said to be an excel
lent remedy for rheumatism; II Is at
least pleasant one, and leaves no
such after effects as many Of the rheu-
matism medicines do.
When cooking beans for Boston
baked beans, always soak them over
night, and a little soda added while
they are parboiling will soften the
skins.
Beans should be baked at least eight
hours in q moderate oven. Keep them
covered until the last hour. A little
mustard added to the molasses gives
a good flavor TO pot Of beans. Many
like an onion baked with them for
flavor.

One OF the readers has asked me to
"analyze an apple, giving the names
and descriptions of the various parts"
To anyone who is Interested in scien.
tihc pomology this Is quite necessary
to be well understood, writes II. T..
Van Deman in the Rural New Yorker.
For the benefit of the general reader,
! will try to make the analysis as
plain as can be. thus serving, If possi-
bic, both the scientifically inclined and
the more ordinary worker with fruits.
An apple is known in science as a
pome, which is fruit that contains
Its seeds in capsules surrounded by
fieshy pulp. other examples of the
PONIES are the pear, ounce, wild haw.
thorn fruits and those of the rose All
Of these have five capsules containing
the seeds, which together compose the
core. In making scientific or 20.
biological description Of an apple we
begin with the outward appearances
There have been various systems or
methods of classification by pomol-
ogists for centuries past. Some OF
them have been very curiously, not to
say absurdly, founded on certain real
or imaginary characteristics, while
others were quito reasonable and prac,
tical. The best OF them all, according
to my judgment, is the system devised
and published by DR.. John a Warder,
of Ohio. in his American Pomology.
The first divisions in his classification
are based upon the shape OF the YER
tical sections and are four in number:
Glass /. Oblate or Fiat: Glass II, Con
zeal; Glass III, Round or Globular;
Class w, Oblong Next comes the
shape of the cross or transverse sec
lions, called Orders, of which there
are two, Regular and Irregular. The
