In nature, much as we rejoice In
new births and tender adolescences,
our deepest sentiment is reserved for
the things which impress us with their
antiquity. We have woven about them
a phraseology all their own. We like
to talk about the hoary ocean; the
gray old rocks against which its spray
is dashed; the mountains which still
stand where they stood when man
first opened his eyes upon the uni
verse; the forest primeval our pris.
tine mother earth. These and thou
sand other poetic figures familiar to
us from childhood show by the respon-
sive echo they never fail to awaken
In our hearts, how ready mankind Is
to treat plentitude of years as q
synonym for steadfastness, the one
quality which lies at the foundation Of
all confidence and real respect. And
when we find that among inanimate
things old age, 80 far from being re-
pellent, exerts a positive attraction,
why are we SO prone to deplore 1t as
soon as 1t threatens to touch our
selves?

| shskespeare's knowledge Of Drugc
Appears to Have Been an Ex-
tremeIy Limited One.

The poIsons mentioned in Shake
speare's works have been made the
subject OF a study by Doctor Cartaz, the
eminent French physician. II appears
therefrom that the extensive medical
knowledge which Shakespeare Is sup
posed to have possessed, and which
has been advanced by the Bacon the
orists as a proof in support of their
contention was no more extensive than
that Of Shakespeare's contemporaries
who, it further appears. laboFed under
the same misapprehensions as he re-
garding the potency of certain philtres
and poisons.
When. for instance, the ghost OF
Hamlets father says that Claudius
poured the juice Of cursed hebenon
(henbane) into the porches OF his
ears" II should be pointed out that
this Juice could not possibly penetrate
the drum of the ear. But the belief In
the deadliness of poison thus intro
duced into the system was 80 general

accused OF killing in this manner King

Portable Wireless
Boon to Germans

bronze wire conductors radiating out
like the ribs of an inverted umbrella
These are accurately balanced and
counter posed. and the radiating wires
are attached to insulators fastened
near the bottom OF the mast.
For sending purposes dry batteries
of special make are supposed to be
used, but in case these are not avail
able a small dynamo, coupled to a
pedalling arrangement, forms part OF
the outfit.
With this man can easily drive a
generator at a speed of 1900 to 140O
revolutions per minute, and so pro
vide current of one ampere at 80
volts, which is amply sufficient for
sending purposes.
The weight of dynamo and pedal
drive is 80 pounds and it is so arrang-
ed that it can be carried by one man
by means of straps, which fasten
across the shoulders.
The transmitter and receiver, the
latter of which is Of the well known
"head-dress' pattern, are designed SO
as to be as light as possible, and 4
might be considered that certain
amount of efficiency has been sacri
ficed to obtain increased portability
and ease in erecting.
| 1t is interesting to note that ths
wave length is about 364 metres, witt
coupling of eight per cent unvariabls
/ and the equipment can exclude waves
of five per cent variation.
The sending can be carried out witt
great rapidity, and the transmitting
and receiving apparatus, without the
mast and material, weigh only eighty
five pounds.

BY United Press.
Berlin, by Mail to New York, Sept.
16.-Portable wireless telegraph out
fits have proved boon to the German
armies in the field. These outfits have
eliminated the old field telegraph sys-
tens, which we're so tedious to lay and
which, when strung through hostile
county, were so easily cut and put out
OF commission. Only along perma
nently established lines of commune
cation are the lines laid for telegraphic
and telephone purposes.
In other countries the armies have
not solved the problem of portable
wireless equipments. They are still
cumbrous and far from easily han
died; they also do not always give the
service needed, and are easily put out
of commission. The short range equip
ment carried by the German field
forces can be transported by motor
cyclist 200 miles day. Long range
equipment can be carried 80 miles In
| "a hours by man and horse The
\ short range instruments will send and
receive over an average of thirty-five
miles, where the country is not hilly.
Larger sizes will carry a distance oi
1SO miles unless the topography OF the
country interferes.
The instruments can be set up and
ready for transmission of messages
| within fifteen minutes of their arrival
at any point. They can be taken down
and made ready for transportation in
from eight to ten minutes.
To return to the matter of transport
ing the equipment it might be added
that in country where neither horse
nor motor propelled vehicle can travel,
it is carried by men on especially CON
structed bamboo ''stretchers."
The regular wireless crew" con
sists of seven men and two officers
Two look after the horses, five are EN-

the waters as the life boats ranged
