he was out Of job.
He entered the Enquirer office at the
moment the staff was taking the relax

CERTAIN REWARD OF VANITY
Sturdy Farmer of Jeffersonian SIM

He was one of those stubborn young
men who carry out their own ideas
regardless of consequences, and when
he left the farm to engage in the liv-
cry business in a nearby town, con-
trary to the wishes of his father, the
first thing he did was to have a
many-colored sign painted, represent
ing himself holding a mule by the
bride.
One day his father, a sturdy old
farmer of the Jeffersonian simplicity
type, came to town, and the son in

string of kites to an altitude of 1000
feet. Messages transmitted from the
set of field wireless attached to this
kite-supported aerial were received
$50 miles away with distinctness, al
though the ordinary range Of the set
was only 25 miles. One thing that
aided materially in obtaining this re-
suit was the fact that the kites flew
SO steadily that the aerial was always
maintained at a constant altitude.
Quite as remarkable as the sending
power of the wireless was it's receiv-
ing quality. Messages were received
with distinctness from the battleship
Georgia while off Newport and from
the government station at Arlington,
Va, and Bermuda.
These experiments were but the
first of long series that will be con.
