LENGTH OF WIRELESS WAVE
the Aerial, but This Does Not
Always Hold Good.

In articles of wireless telegraphy
such expressions as 2OO-meter wave
lengths. 6O0-mile wuve-lengths, 49,
NO-meter wave-lengths are constantly
used. In reply to a correspondent who
asks how the length of the waves is
measured the Scientific American gives
the following simple explanation:
1.-The length of an electric wave is
determined by Il wave-lneter. Tho nat
ufal wave-length of an aerial is four
times its linear length, just as the
wavelensth of a note of a closed ~
gan pipe is four times the length OF the
pipe, and the wave-length of the note
of a tuning fork is four times the
length of the box which is reasonant
with the note. However. other CON
siderations make it difficult TO measure
the w%ave-length by a rule. and the
wave-meter gives a more correc, re
suit than can be found by measuring
the length of the WIRE"

CORNS LIFT OUT

You say to the drug store man.
"Give me q small bottle of f~reezone."
This will cost very little but will
positively remove every hard or soft
corn or callus from ones feet.
A few drops of this new ether COM
pound applied directly upon a tender,
aching corn relieves the soreness in

callus. ROOF and all. dries up and can
be lifted off with the fingers.
This new way to rid ones feet Of
corns was introduced by a Cincinnati
man. who says that freeZone dries in
a moment. and simply shrivels up the
corn or callns without irritating the
surrounding skin.
