and lighthouse on the south coast.
In 1899 Marconi read paper on
"Wireless Telegraphy" before the In
stitution of Electrical Engineers in
London.
Early in 1901 Geographic commu-

points more than $50 miles distant
and at the end of that year Maroon

Cornwall to ST. Johns, Newfoundland.
In 1902 he received on board the
steamship Philadelphia in the pres

on the tape when at distance OF
over 150O miles from the transmit
ting station and signals at over 2,OOO
miles. In December, 1902, the station
established at Cape Breton, Nova
Scotia, under a contract with the Ca
madam government for TRANSATLANTIC
wireless telegraphy, was put into
communication with the Cornwall sta

Approximate figures are reported
from various states and centers in

sets. According to A. L. Benson of
st. Louis, division manager of the
American Radio Relay league, about
10000 radiophones are used in four
states as follows: Iowa, $4,000; Mis-
souri,, $4,000; Nebraska, $4,000;
Kansas, 10000. In st. Louis alone
there are some 1900 The radiophones
chiefly carry concert music, but in
many localities farmers have installed
them to receive market reports.
Correspondence from Texas reports
263 stations in Dallas, ranging In size
from Il X. w. to 20 watts, and almost
equal numbers in other cities Of the
state.
Cleveland, Ohio reports probably 10
600 radio enthusiasts, 1000 sending
stations in greater Cleveland, virtually
all amateur, and 10000 receiving sets
used almost nightly. These estimates
exclude commercial sets. Cincinnati
reports 500 sets.
Indiana has 400 amateur radio sets
and indianapolis 1000 radiophones.
Wisconsin has nearly 1.500 stations

ders came to her house at two and did
not leave until five; all the time count
ing over, one by one, the hours he'd
spent with Julia since she was seven
teen and turned out, unfortunately,
to be Beauty. Newland had not re-
strained himself, Aunt Carrie said,
and long before he left she wished
Jnlia had never been born-and as
for Herbert Illingsworth Atwater
Junior, the only thing to do with him
was to send him to some strict mill
tary school,
Florence's father telephoned to her
mother from downtown at three, and
said that Mr.. George Plum and the
ardent vocalist, Clairdyce, two of the
suitOrs, had just left his Office. They
had not called in company, however,
but coincidentally and each had a
copy of the North End Daily Oriole,
already somewhat worn with folding
and unfolding. Mr.. Clairdyce's condi-
ton was one of desperate calm, Flor
ence's father said, but Mr.. Plum's agi-
tation left him rather unpresentable
for the street, though he had finally
gone forth with his hair just as he
had rumpled it, and with his hat in
his hand. They wished the truth they
said: Was it true or was it not true?
Mr.. Atwater had told them that he
feared Julia was indeed engaged,
though he knew nothing of her
fiance's previous marriage or mar
riages, or of the number of his
previous children. They had respond
ed that they cared nothing about that.
This man Crum's record was matter
of Indifference to them. All they
wanted to know was whether Julia
was engaged or nOt-and she was

Radio enthusiasts have increased
tenfold within the last few months, it
appears from a survey conducted by
the Associated Press and covering the
central west, Kentucky and Texas. AT
virtually all points from which re-
ports have been received, there are
thousands of radio sets, particularly
for purposes of telephony, where at
most there were hundreds before.
While the sets are used chiefly for
pleasure and experience, they are be-

WOMEN THROWING OFF YOKE
Emancipation of the Sex Has Been
Making Rapid Strides Through
out Palestine.

The emancipation of women In
Palestine is taking Place very rapidly.
Women were not very seriously re-
garded heretofore. They were looked
upon as a bit of chattel to be given
little more regard than a dog or a
cat about the home. They were
bought and sold to the whims of the
lord and master of the domestic es-
adjustments. They dared not leave
the premises without special permits
sion of the husband" They were not
even given any work to do, but Of re-
cent years a change has come over
the scene and the women under the
impetus of some greater freedom have
developed into able artisans.
An exhibition OF the work Of the
women of the country was held re-
Gently at Haifa and the results were
greater than were hoped for by the
most ardent supporters of the enter
prise. There were many beautiful
specimens of pottery, weaving, EN-
broidery and other domestic accom-
plishments. Women have demanded
and are receiving equality in the home
and are entering into a line of ac-
tivities from which they have been
heretofore barred.

Dainty Little White Flower.

Sweet alyssum is an easily grown,
dainty little white flower, recommend
ed TO be used literally for borders,
edgings, baskets, pots, rockwork, and
for cutting. For borders the seed
should be sown thickly, SO as to form
masses. For winter bloom sow late in
August and thin the seedlings to stand
about four inches apart, but for spring
bloom for borders the seeds should be
sown in the open early In the spring,
or ever late in the preceding autumn
in some localities. Where the plant will
not endure the winter, however, early
spring planting under cover, either in
a cold frame, Il spent hotbed, or in
boxes in q dwelling. Is most to be re-
lied upon. Sweet alyssum can also be
increased from cuttings made from
strong new side shoots, as well as by
division of the roots. BY cutting back
after the first flowers fade others will
be produced.
