NEW DISCOVERIES IN CRETE.

Excavation at Knossos, psaetos
and other sites in Crete has not
merely established the existence of
a people whose form Of civilization
was the earliest in Europe, but has
shown much about their daily life,
games, amusements; their art, re-
igion, w~riting-though hardly yet
their language; their physical char
acteristies, dress and the houses
they lived in.
A huge palace, as big as Bucking-
ham palace, has been unearthed at
Knossos. II has a drainage system
that an eminent Italian archeologist
has described as absolutely Eng

the hydraulic engineering Of The
Nineteenth century. The men Of

BY LAND AND THROUGH AIR
Messages Nov Being Sent TO France
From England by Wireless and
Telegraph Systems.

A linking up Of wireless and tele-
graph systems by which wireless
communication with Paris Will be
made universal has just been com
pleted in England. 1t is now pos
sible to hand in wireless messages
for Paris at any post Office in the
United Kingdom and have them
transmitted at a rate Of 5 cents a
word.
The linking up is done without
relays, as the working Of the tele-
graph key in Paris sends the mes
sage automatically over the land
wire, transmits it to the air and ulti-
mately joins the land wire again,
operating the receiving taps at the
Fenchurch street Office in London.
Many other new wireless develop
ments are being made. Recently the
foundation stone Of what win be the
most powerful radio station in the
world was laid at Sainte Assise,
France. 1t viii be able to commune
cate with America, the Far East
and Australia. Experts are now
hoping to establish the same sort Of
wireless communication with Amer
lea that has just been put in force
in Paris messages.

A man often forgets the ex-

The safe way is to cut this out

nothing quite so satisfactory
