PROGRESS OF RADIO
THROUGH THE YEARS
Wireless Research Began Long
Ago, But Development Has
Been Swift Lately.

Wireless research started many
years ago, as far back even as 1927.
Even the radio telephone is not re-
cent perfection; rather it Is that intro
ductiOn to the layman Of the human
voice and music has suddenly popular
lied something that wireless men had
thought a pastime or amusement. Here
Is the chronological record Of wire
less:
1S27-It was found that the mag
netic discharge from a leyden jar
would magnetic steel needle.
1881 - Electromagnetic induction
was discovered between two entirely
separate circuits by Michael Faraday.
1S37-Cooke and Wheatstone Of
London, England, and Morse of the
United States take out first patent for
electric telegraph.
1S3s-K. A. Steinhell Of Munich
suggested that a system Of wireless
telegraphy could be established after
9his discovery Of the use Of the earth
return.
1S4O-Joseph Henry (U. S. Az pro-
duced the first high-frequency cleo
trio oscillations, and stated that the
condenser discharge is oscillatory.
1912 - Wireless experiments were
made by S. +. B. Morse by electric
conduction through water across
Washington canal and across, wide
rivers.
1S43-A wireless system for trans
atlantic communication was suggested.
1S45-Water was used as conduct
ing medium in wireless experiments
across a wide river.
1S49-Intelligible signals were act
ually sent across river 4,5O0 feet
wide in India, but the cost was found
prohibitive for commercial use.
1S67-The electric waves that are
now utilized in wireless telegraphy
and telephony were predicted in an

Famous Painting in Boston.

In the busiest part of Boylston
street, in a little room over some
stores, visitors to Boston are some
times taken to see strange combina-
ton of a sacred shrine and artistic
studio. The room, says the New YORK
Mail, is scarcely large enough for hair
a dozen people to stand up in and
large part of one wall Is taken up by
q picture which Is known as "The Lost
Raphael" 1t Is Madonna and
Childr-a very beautiful picture be-
yond question, and religiously believed
by its discoverer and owner, as we'll as
by u great many other people, to be
the authentic work Of Raphael. The
owner Is named Duffy.
Mr.. Duffy Is man Of artistic culti-
walton, who literally has devoted his
life to this picture since his discovery
of It. He sits by 1t al day long and Is
willing to discourse about 1t at great
length. In his little studio he has re-
ceiyed many distinguished visitors, all
Of whom. he says, believe in the au-
thenticity of the picture. On the book
where his visitors register their names
are the signatures Of the king of the
Belgians and the king of Siam. Fhere
are a great many people who have
superstitious veneratiOn for the ptc-
ture.

with them. They're all broken up, Of
course; but when they saw he'd made
up his mind, they quit opposing him,
and think they're proud Of him about
1t, maybe, in spite Of feeling anxious.
You see, his father was an artillery
man IN the war with Spain, and his
grandfather was colonel at the end
Of the Civil war, though he went into
it as a private. like Ramsey. He died
when Ramsey was about twelve; but
Ramsey remembers him; he was talk
ing of him the night before he enlisted"
Dora made gesture Of despairine
protest. You don't understand"
"What Is it l don't understand"
Ramsey! know why he went
and it's just killing me-"
Fred looked at her gravely. 81 don't
think you need worry about It," he
said. There's nothing about his 60
ing that you are responsible for"
She repeated her despairing gesture.
You don't understand. But it's no
use. 1t doesn't help any to try to talk
OF it, though thought maybe it would,
somehow" She went little nearer
the dormitory entrance, leaving him
where he was, then turned. II sup
pose you won't see hlm?"
81 don't know. Most probably not
till we meet-if we should-in France.
I do IT know where he's stationed; and
I'm going with the aviation--if It's
ever ready! And he's with the regu-
lars; he'll probably be among the first

calling back over her shoulder in a
choked voice. THANK you. Good-by "
But Fred's heart lad melted; gazing
after her, he saw that her proud young
head had lowered now, and that her
shoulders were moving convulsively
he ran after her and caught her as she
began slowly to ascend the dOrmitOry
steps.
"See here" he cried. Don't"
She lifted a wet face. "No, no! He
went in bitterness because told him
to, in my own bitterness! I've killed
him! Long ago, when he wasn't much
more than a child, heard he'd said
that some day he'd Show me, and now
he's done it"
Fred whistled low and long when she
had disappeared. "Girls!" he muir
INJURED to himself. "Some girls, any
how-they will be girls! You can't
tell 'em what's what, and you can't
change 'em, either"
Then, as more urgent matters again
occupied his attention. he went on al
an ardent and lively gait to attend his
class in map-making.

CHAPTER XIV.

Fred Mitchell, crossing the campus
one morning, ten days later, saw Dora
standing near the entrance of her dor
mitory, where he would pass her un-
less he altered his course; and as he
drew nearer her and the details Of her
face grew into distinctness, he was in
dignant with himself for feeling less
and less Indignation toward her in pro-
portiOn to the cloSeneSS of his ap-
prOach. The pity that came over him
was mingled whA an unruly admira-
ton, causing him to wonder what un-
patriotic stuff she could be made Of.
She was marked, but not whipped; she
still held herself straight under all the
hammering and cutting which, to his
knowledge, she had been getting.
She stopped him, "for only q mo-
ment," she said, adding with a wan
proudness: THAT is, If you're not one
Of those who feel that / shouldn't be
spoken to'?"
NO" said Fred, stlffly. 81 may
share their point of view, perhaps, but
don't feel called upon to obtrude It
on you in that manner"
II see," she said, nodding. 'Pve
wanted to speak with you about RAM
sey."
"All right"
She bit her lip, then asked, abrupt
ly: What made him do it?'
Enlist as private with the regu-
larS%
NO. What made him enlist at ALP
"Only because he's that sort" Fred
returned brlskly. "He may be inex-
plicable TO people who believe that his
going out to fight for his country is
