From Mare2

The worlds greatest authority in
wireless telegraphy, Marconi, believes.
that radio messages have been re-
ceived from the planet Mars. The an
nouncement has set scientists in many
countries discussing the possibility Of
wireless messages being sent from
one planet to another. 1t seems to be
agreed that the ether, Or whatever 1t
is called which lies between the
heavenly bodies, Is capable Of trans
hitting wireless waves, so that it is
scientifically possible to send such
messages, even from Mars to the
earth. Some scientists believe that
the mysterious signals received by
Marconi were caused by tricks Of our
own atmosphere. Nevertheless, Mar
conf and many others believe that we
are at the opening Of marvellous new
era of long-distance communication
with neighborfng planets.

MADE POSTMASTER In 1859.
Richard Fairbanks of Boston Ap.
pointed by Massachusetts, GEN
erai Court in That Year.

The first account Of the formal es-
adjustment Of a postmaster is found
in the records Of the general court Of
Massachusetts,, by which, in 1889, it
was ordered that notice be given that
RICHARD Fairbanks, his house in Bos-
ton is the place appointed for all let
tiers which are brought from beyond
the seas or are to be sent thither to
be left with him and he is to take
care that they are to be delivered or
sent according to his direction. And
he is allowed for every letter penny
and must answer all miscarriages
through his own neglect in this
kind"
In May, 1893, by an act Of the gen
eral assembly it was provided that a
general post Office may be erected by
Andrew Hamilton at Philadelphia"
and that Andrew Hamilton Tor some
other as shall be appointed by the
king" should be postmaster general
sin these parts and his deputy or dep
uties in that Office should demand, re-
ceive and take postage, etc"
In ITO, by act of parliament, a
postmaster general OF the colonies
was appointed by the crown and au-s
thorized 'to keep his chief letter Of.
fice' in New York and other chief let
ter offices at some convenient place or
places in other of his majesty's prov
inces or colonies of America and also
to appoint all deputy postmasters.
In 1877 Benjamin Franklin was ap-
pointed postmaster at Philadelphia
and published the appointment in his
own newspaper in these words: "No-2
tice is hereby given that the post Of
flee of Philadelphia is now kept at
3. Franklin's house in Market street
and that Henry Pratt is appointed
riding postmaster for all stages be-
tween Philadelphia and Newport in

Get Rid Of DYING Trees.

Two men with q crosscut saw can
bring down tree in letter shape than
one man with an ak, although an ak is
good, but slow, In many communities
where wood is plentiful company Of
men run a power saw. This is an cas-
Ter and much more efficient method
than the handsaW way.
So sharpen your trusty ak and lay
it at the foot Of some dying tree. Put
it out Of its misery and at the same
time make yourself some extra fuel
for the kitchen stove and fireplace.

Camel Going Without Water.


An ordinary camel will carry its
pack % miles day for three days
without water, while there are some
that will go without water SO miles a
day for five days. A specially trained

carry a load OF. a thousand pounds.
The animal is not full grown until Its

NATURES WAY WITH PESTS
One Destructive Insect is Used to Fight
Another; Each Capable Of
Useful Work.

You recall the old nursery rhyme,
"This is the house that Jack built?"
The story of Natures warfare runs on
very much the same lines. This is
the fox that ate the squirrel that stole
the eggs of the maybe that killed the
sparrow that devOured the fly that
destroyed the caterpillar that spOilt
the cabbage that grew in the house
that Jack built!
Nature uses one pest to fight another.
Each of the creatures mentioned is a
pest; yet each is capable Of useful
work.
Moths and butterflies lay hundreds
of eggs at q time, so that If nothing
preyed on caterpillars we should soon
have not single green leaf in the
country. But we must have moths
and butterflies to fertilize flowers. The
chief foe of the caterpillar is the
ichneumon-fy, which lays eggs in him
as he craWls on leaf. These eggs
hatch into grubs and kill the cater
pillar
The ichneumOn-hy is eaten Dy small
birds which do useful work In this
way, though in other ways they are
pests, for they eat the farmers corn.
They are kept in check by cuckoos,
hawks, crows, and magpies. These
birds of prey, if their growth was un-
checked, would soon kill all the game
in the country. Squirrels and other
birds keep them down by stealing their
eggs. Squirrels are preyed upon by
foxes, which, as we have no wild
beasts in this country, must be sept
in check by man.
