Next in efficiency comes mica.
This is now used almost exclusively
in large condenser construction. In
given plate area it gives six to
eight times the capacity of air.
In long wave experiments, the
amateur frequently has occasion for
capacities larger than those ordi-
narily used. If the air-receiving

tight case. the containac nay he

employed.
Two circular plates, an inch in
diameter, placed closely together,
but separated by sheet of mica

thick, will have a maximum capacity
comparable with the air condcnsers
generally used for receiver purposes.
If a clear piece of mica, which is

the losses will be negligible.

down in the top of the tree. In Mills

done to crops and fruit trees. Many

for the Pacific coast. Alabama cotton leaves Mobile every week for all parts of the globe. The world seems little more than a village.
 Manufacturers realize what ports mean to industry. Farmers are beginning to do 50. It is well that they are, because their interest in exports is fully as great as that of the man ufacturer. More than half the American cot ton production is exported. Alabama lumber goes to every part of the world. Compared with exports of farm and forest products those of mills and factories are small.
 There is impressiveness in the thought of a street car line where Christ once rode an ass while the people cast down their garments and strewed His path with palm branches. Yet the world today is what it is because He. spoke the gospel there. Mankind will never so mod ernize Jerusalem that it will cease to be the most sacred spot on earth.

MEXICO ON VOTING DAY
From Fl Universal, Mexico City.

From Fl Universal, Mexico City.
 Elections took place Sunday amid an Octa, vian peace, or rather in an atmosphere of placid indifference.
 It was a quiet Sunday, rather boring No body would have believed that an act of tram scendent democratic significance was being performed in the city. In the morning there were people in the parks on the principal ave- nues, in the theatres. Not a fly appeared in the voting booths. Contrary to the practice of recent years, when the day of suffrage was distinguished by numerous casualties, not one occurred-save in those places where the can didates vigorously disputed possession of the ballot boxes, with the pious intention of talk ing them home with them in order to fill them up with votes.
 How good, someone will exclaim, that there was no bloodshed, nor anger, nor hate; but what a pity, too, that the absence of excite ment, of interest, should reveal the indiffer- ence with which the principal function of the citizens of democracy is regarded among US still It is estimated that the number of those who voted was not 25 per cent of the voting population. And why? Because conscientious citizens did not desire to vote? Perhaps be- cause they feared disorders that did not oc- cur? No; on the cotraray. We doubt that there is single Mexican of good sense who does not consider voting unquestioned duty. All wish to vote, and in the case of this cleo tion they were not restrained by foolish fears. What happened Sunday and what always will happen is this: very few are ever going to vote while the elections are not well conducted and do not absolutely guarantee the efficiency of the vote beyond all suspicion of fraud.
 For example, we noticed on Sunday that very few citizens received the proper ballot. We also observed that in some districts there was not even contest, while in others the candidates who presented themselves were un- known to most, if not all, of the citizens. Add to this that the parties-our so-called political parties-are groups without any program touching important or national interests, and it will easily be understood that if in the future we do not want the elections to pass unnoticed, as has almost always been the case in Mexico, we shall have to purify them promptly of their original evils.

THE FIs.1.HAWK

John Hall Wheeock, in the August Scribner's. On the large highway of the awful air that flows
 Unbounded between sea and heaven, while twilight screened The majestic distances, he moved and had re- pose;
 On the huge wind of the Immensity he leaned His steady body in long lapse of flight, and rose Gradual, through broad gyres of ever-climbing rest,
 Up the clear stair of the eternal sky; and stood Throned on the summit Slowly, with his wid- ening breast, Widened around him the enormous Solitude From the Gray rim of ocean to the glowing west. ta Headlands and capes forlorn of the far coast the land
 Rolling her barrens toward the south, hc from his throne Upon the gigantic wind, beheld; he hung-he famed
 The abyss for mighty joy, to feel beneath him strown Pale pastures of the sea, with heaven on either hand, The world with all her winds and waters, earth and air.
 Fields, folds and moving clouds. The awful and adored Arches and endless aisles of vacancy, the fair Void of sheer heights and hollows hailed him as her lord And lover in the highest, to whom all heaven lay bare! Till from that tower of ectasy, that baffled height,
 Stopping, he sank; and slowly on the worlds wide way Walked, with great wing on wing, the merci- less, proud Might, Hunting the huddled and lone reaches for his prey Down the dim shore-and faded in the crumbling light. Slowly the dusk covered the land. Like a great hymn The sound of moving winds and waters was;
 the sea Whispered benediction, and the west grew dim
 Where evening lifted her clear candles Heaven. crowded with stars. trembled from rim to rim.

LEGISLATIVE TICKET

"There is one phase of the present political campaign that is seemingly being overlooked, and that is the selection of the legislative ticket from this county" said P. W. Hall.
 While we should all strive to elect the best men or women to fill the various county of fees, those who will to the best of their ability carry out the law, how much more important it is to select the right persons to make these laws.
 "At the next session Of the state legisa. ture measures of vital importance to the peo- pie of this county, such as taxation, workmen's compensation act municipal government and other equally important measures will come before that body, and it behooves every voter in Jefferson county, male and female, to in form themselves the qualifications of the numerous candidates that are in the legisia- tive race in order to vote inteligently when se- lecting the seven representatives from this county"
