Unb.II.vabI. AlssrIea.

In the chapter of Hugo Munsterberes
unfinished autobiography, published In
the Century under the title, Twenty
Eve Years In America the Harvard
professor tells some ot the amusing
misconceptions Of America current IN
Germany quarter Of a century ago.
1.-THE one, however, who brought me
nearest to America was the historian
Hoist" wrote Professor Munsterberg.
I'm the lecture room his real life work
was silenced. Who would care to study
American history? But In the drawing
room he did not talk of anything else;
America and America again. Sometimes
we had to listen to American stories
through whole dinner parties. I do re-
member that at my first Freiburg party
he reached his climax when he told the
fascinated company that he had been In
a hotel in New York where his room
had q private bathroom In which he
could have hot bath at any hour OF
the night. The lady next to me relieved
the dramatic tension by whispering, I
do not believe it. Well, no one be-
lieved much Of what he heard concern
ing America"

Length Of Wireless Waves.

In articles on wireless telegraphy
such expressions as 200 meter wave
lengths, 600 meter wave lengths, $4,000
meter wave lengths are constantly
used. In reply to 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 a wave meter. The nat
ural wave length Of an aerial Is four
times it's linear length, just as the
wave length Of a note Of closed organ
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 resonant
with the note. However, other consid
erations make 1t difficult to measure
the wave length by rule, and the
wave meter gives more correct result
than can be found by measuring the
length Of the wire."

The ability to put on the customers
glasses and see windows, cases and
prices from the buying side OF the coun-
ter is an asset that cannot be too highly
valued. Every electric store salesman
Is also buyer. He must purchase
clothing, neckties and shoes. The cleo
trical man who can remember how 9TH

their merchandise in way that invited
his interest and encouraged him to buy
and who can apply these methods IN bis
own everyday selling Is the man who

Fireless Cooker Makeshlft.

covered will continue to cook for hours,
az the oven retains the heat for some
time after the FIRE Ia out.
If you want your beans baked fol
supper and the day is boiling hot it is
only necessary to have fire to cook the
breakfast and dinner. Put the beans
to soak at night. In the morning before
sitting down to breakfast put them or
the front of the range to parboil, and
Immediately after breakfast fix the
beans ready to bake. Then let them
come to boil on top of the stove, clap
on the cover of the bean pot and another
cover over that Il use q pail cover), lei
boil for moment and set them into the

When you are getting dinner remove
the beans from the oven and let them

Activity Of the Tongue.

Nobody's tongue is still for moment
at all events, in waking hours. The
tongue is the most necessarily active OF
all the body's members.
We think Of the tongue as an organ
Of speech, but it is also an organ of
feeling. When one eats 1t Is constantly
feeling about in the mouth and deciding
out of its own mind" what particles
Of food are small enough or too big to
swallow.
Yes, indeed, the tongue has mind OF
its own-a ganglion or minor brain
that is busy ut mealtimes In regulating
the supply of food to the stomach. But
for its unceasing guardianship we
should suffer much oftener than we do
from the distresses Of indigestion.
We think Of the finger ends as our
most sensitive organs Of feeling. They
are not such at all. The end Of the
