AWARDED MEDAL OF HONOR

Lieutenant Caswell Saufey was
made the recipient of medal Of
honor at a banquet in New York
City, given him last week by the
Navy Department. The token was
in appreciation of gallant and effici-
ent service in the navy in general,
and his work at Vera Cruz in par
ticular. 1t was presented by Ad-
miral Peary in a speech replete with
good things. Lieutenant Sauhey's
words Of acceptance were most ap-
propriate, and well chosen and
rounds of applause met his every
sentence. 1t will be remembered
that he made the first fight over
Vera Cruz. His friends here are
delighted at the honors Mr.. Saufey
is receiving and. the success he is
making of his life work.

our NATIONAL CURSE
Every nation has its curse.

expenditures of life, and especially
to the table.
If every business and professional
man in this community we're asked
as to whether he would rather sell
for cash at considerable discount
in price, or continue the credit
system, we believe the vote would
be unanimous in favor of cash and
reduced profits.
The credit system is a nuisance.
It is a national curse--a community
curse, if you please.
Wherever the credit system pre-
walls, there you will find the usual
number of slow-pays and genuine
deadbeats.
The merchant pays for his
goods, and in turn some one must
pay him. He cannot live on wind,
hope or expectations. 1t is case
of "no cash, no i've"
Every merchant who extends
credit gets taken in by the dead
beats. He loses not only his profits,
but the cost of his goods as well.
And what then does he do?
Just what you or any other sensible
person would do-raises the prices
sufficiently on his wares to protect
him against such losses. And the
man who pays his own bills also
pays the bills of the deadbeat.
If person can pay at the end
of every thirty days it would re-
quire but little retrenchment and
sacrifice to enable him to reach the
point where he can pay cash where
he goes.
When the merchant carries your
account he virtually lends you his
money and this should not be. The
bank is the proper place for such
transactions.
BY paying cash for his goods the
dealer can get a substantial dis
count from the wholesaler, and this
discount, coupled with the saving of
the usual deadbeat losses, would
make a material reduction in the
cost of supplies. But he can hardly
stand the strain of a cash transac-
ton himself while he is extending
from thirty to ninety days credit
to Dick, Tom and Harry and all Of
the little Harrys.
Prices are high in this communi-
ty, but conditions are no worse here
than they are in other sections of
the country. The wall is heard in
every city and hamlet, and the vol
ume is exceeding great.
"Give us reliefp is the cry.
"Give yourself relief" we say
To a great extent the remedy is in
your own hands.
Some of you are welded to the
mail order habit because you get
a cent or two off here and there
but you pay it back in the freight.
Is your credit good with the mail
order concernf Not in a thousand
years.
Do you hand over your cash be-
fore you get your goods? You bet
every time--and you keep what
you get, whether it stings or not.
You expect your home merchant,
who extends you credit and carries
your account indefinitely, to make
the same price ON goods he guar
antees that the mail order man
makes on goods he does not gu"can
tee, and for which he demands his
pound of flesh in advance.
Is this fair7 Is it just to the
home merchant, or even to your
self
Now why can't the people of this
community get together with the
tradesmen and inaugurate a strict
ly cash system in every line of
business9 Why can't we stamp out

CHAPTER I.

Draped as the Spirit of the Marsh,
the beautiful little. runaway bride stood,
dazed and trembling, on the sidewalk in
front OF the studio from which she had
been driven. AT the curb stood limou-
sine with its black silk curtains drawn.
The white moustached man, who had
sprung from it, grasped the lovely model
by the wrist and drew her 10 the car as
the dark, handsome. black Vandyked man
who had followed covered her gauzily
clad form with the voluminous black
cloak which he carried
Down the street at tearing pace came
the family car of the runaway brides
father and mother. and In it with them
were two of her friends and the de-
serted groom, his teeth gritting and his
fists clinched as he saw these two scoun-
drels bundle his pretty June into the car
and hurry in after her.
Just behind the family came an cleo
trio coupe. driven by. a. sharp featured
woman with long nose and high arched
brows, and, as she saw this bold abb
duction she shrieked and ran lrer car
into the curb. AS the door of the lux
urious limousine slammed shut the quiet
block seemed suddenly alive. Around the

regular messages. but also to surface
wave, which consists Of longitudinal cleo
trio currents flowing upon the earth's
surface. This wave, he thinks, may be
the source of the signals that can be
picked up by extremely simple instru-
ments placed near the ground
When the war suddenly put tenn
porary end to tteir larger investigat tons,
the experimenters were dealing with an
other curious fact, viz. that the nature
Of the soil between the transmitting and
receiving stations has much to do with
the strength of the Signals. And. not
only so, but The length of the waves
caused a variation in the effects produced
by the soil. There are places where
waves of certain lengths can hardly be
forced to pass.
Thus. the ground north and northeast
OF Newport, r. l.. possesses a remark
able absorbing power for radio waves
Of a thousand metres length. which
lose 25 per cent OF their energy in passing
over distance OF forty-five miles, while
waves $3.50 metres long pass over the
same ground without difficulty and with
only about the normal amount OF absorp-
ton.
Some day. when photography has
become the universal method of inter-
communication at a distance the world
may have to be mapped electrically. so
that charts will show where messages
can go easily and where only with diff
ficulty, and what particular waves are
needed for passing over certain districts
or countries.

and daring senders and receivers Of
news through the ether" it's likely 10
be found that an amount of experimental
knowledge has been quickly accumulated
through the necessities OF war which
could not have been gathered by ordi-
nary scientific experimentation in a
whole generation.
We are going to know some day pre-
cisely by what means German cruisers.
! Thousands OF miles from home. ON the

enabled TO keep in touch with the sup

suers and to deal quick blows at vital
points, or TO fly from threatened refugees
with as much certainty OF movement as
II they possessed sixth sense. which
enabled them to see through the solid
globe as though Il were a crystal ball.
And when these secrets are thrown open
the art Of wireless telegraphy will prob
ably be put on a new footing.
In the meantime the scientific expert
mentors are turning their attention to
more profound study OF the why's and
wherefores OF radio-telegraphy and to
consideration OF the many mysteries
which 1t still offers for solution. For
man has never had to deal with a ser
want so capricious. 50 many-faced. 80
taeiturn. so humorsome and yet, at times,
so astonishingiy obedient and magicaIly
efficient as this one.
DIR. J. A. Fleming, talking to the mem
bers OF the Wireless society OF London,
recently pointed out some OF the strange
things about radio-telegraphy that can,
as yet. be only theoretically explained.
Just at the moment whebsthe war broke
out an attempt was being made TO find
the reason for the remarkable variations
In the strength of the signals received
IN England from the Eiffel Tower OF
Paris. The conclusion OF this. research
has had to be postponed. One OF the
things that has been learned Is that when
a radio-telegraphic wave passes over the
earth 1t penetrRtes a certain distance into
it, and loses amplitude through the alb
sorption Of wave energy by the soil. In
passing over the sea the penetration Is
much less. Thus. according to the best
information now at hand. the penetration
of radio-wave 1900 metres long into
sea-water Is only about one metre (22s
feet). while in ordinary airy soil the pene-
tration amounts to from 100 to several
hundred metres.
One Of the curious facts which has be-
come popularity known within a year OF
SO Is that signals coming from long-lis-
lance wireless stations can be picked IN
by amateurs without the use OF any
high-swung receiving wire. but by simply
connecting one end OF the receiver
to the earth and the other end to any
insulated piece OF metal, which may Just
as well be inside house as out OF doors
An explanation OF this may be found
nr Fleming thinks. In the discovery
that when a Herr osciidtor. general
ing radio waves. has one-half connected
10 earth. Il gives rise not only 20 what
are called space waves" which pass
through the air and earth and convey the
