Ads as Sounding Horn

From The Popular Mechanics Magazine.
 A phonograph with unusual qualities, constructed on an entirely new plan. has been designed by an eastern inven- tor. It uses cylinder records eight inhces in diamater and of various lengths, the receiving cylinder of the machine being eighteen inches long. The interior of this big tube is connected to the double Jointed tone arm and constitutes the sounding horn of the instrument. It is electrically driven and has a diamond stylus on a floating support, sensitive to the finest vibrations and requiring no changing of needles The shortest rec ords are about three inches across the face and the largest run the full length of the cylinder. taking an hour to play

Folks and Things
Around Washington
Labert ST. Clair.

1t is not impossible that the next
President OF the United States will
walk to his inaugural ceremonies al
the Capitol.
II, for instance. the people should
decide that Senator Poindexter. Of
Washington, who is a very active
candidate for the Republican nom
ination. is their choice it seems
quito likely that the President-elect
would go OH foot instead OF on horse
back, as Thomas Jefferson went. in
a side-bar hack, or in an automo-
bile. as many Presidents have ridden.
PoindeXtcr without doubt is the
greatest walker in public life. He
reels Off miles like Dan O'Leary
used to when he was Young man.
and. furthermore. he does II in all
kinds OF company. When delegations
come to Washington from Poindex-
ter's state. he cntertains them Law
ishly, but usually on foot. The Sem
ato' always meets the delegation
with outstretched hands. and, If meal
time j. near. he invariably says:

OF course. now you will dine with

Naturally. the home folks always
accept because one cannot dine with
q Senator every day, and as they
accept they have visions OF riding
to the meal in a higb-powered IL
mousine. or az least well-appointed
taxicab. However, not once in a
score of times does the Senator sum-
mon any sort of a vehicle whatever
to convey his guests to their meals.
lie starts them out on foot and some
times walks them two or three miles.
They often arrive in a tagged out
condition and maybe they are a IN
tie petulant Until they learn that
the Senator is a great believer in
foot exercise and that he really does
not walk to save csrfnre.
When Poiadexter is out home he
always makes the trip to his ranch,
some ten miles from Spokane, on
foot. 1t is his custom to GO out
to the ranch and rough il all by
himself for weeks at time. He
is corking good cook and can. cut
wood with the best axe swingers
in his neighborhood.
1t is divulging no secret to say
that many persons in the East do
not take the Poindexter candidacy
very seriously and an explanation
for 1t frequently is requested. One
explanation is that Poindexter is
more or less of fatalist and It
may be that in the back of his head
Is centered the belief that he Is
destined to become the next Presi-
dent of the country. ..N
