while in other sets there are two. a
primary and secondary Fig. 33. and
as a rule the coil should be tapped
and the circuit connected at the tap
off Fig. "a. This is best done by TAX
ing loop or twist in the wire aft the
desired point and then continuing
winding as Fig. 35. OF course. in max
ing the connection at this tap-off the
wire should be scraped free of insula-
tion to make the joint, after which it
should be wrapped with adhesive tape.
In making these simple inductance
coils it is best to put on more turns
OF wire than you think is actually re-
quired, as it is far easier to remove
one turn at time, until the desired
wave length is obtained, than it is
to add turns after the instruments are
set up. Similar simple coils are used
In many parts Of receiving sets, such
as the radio-choke in Fig. SO. l.. etc.
BY making several tap-offs and then
leading them to the various contacts
Of a multiple-point switch, Fig. 36.
Q, excellent results may be obtained
especially with the smaller crystal sets
with single simple COLL Another way
by which waves of varying lengths
may be received by means of simple
coils without tuning devices, is to have
several coils of various sizes so ar
ranged that they may be connected or
disconnected with your set at will
This may be done, either by means
of plugs and sockets as in Fig. SO,
A, or by switches with several con-
facts as shown In Fig. SO, B. Still
finer adjustment may be obtained by
each coil with slider or
similar tuning device. This will give
a wide range Of wave lengths and will
obviate all need of taking turns of the
coils and as such coils are very easy
to make you can have as many as you
desire of different sizes.
Another very different type of in
ductance-coil consists of two windings.
known as primary and secondary, and
are similar to the ordinary sparkling
coils used in older type automobiles

XIV. INDUCTANcEs AND TUNING COILS

In order to receive and hear sounds
sent from transmitting stations by
radiophones clearly and without inter-
ference or confusion, device of some
sort Is required which will cut out all
waves save those desired This is
known as tuning" and the instruments
or appliances used to accomplish it
are called tuners" There are now
a great many different devices for
tuning, such as tuning-coils, loose
couplers, vario-couplers, variometers,
variable condensers, etc. Of these,
all but the variable condensers (Which
see) are coils of various types, the
simplest, but by no means the most
efficient, being the simple tunipg-coils.
These consist of a coil Of bare wire
wound about core or cylinder of
wood fibre or pasteboard and pro-
vided with sliding contacts as shown
In Fig. 80, in which A is the coil, B,
the slide rod and G, the slider.
BY moving the slider from coil to
coil of the wire the wave length of
the receiving instruments may be ad-
justed to catch the desired sounds
Of that wave length. Such coils are
very easily made by winding a paste
board tube-which should be soaked
In melted paraffine to render 1t water
proof-with bare copper wire about
No. 49,, making about 40 turns and
leaving space of about 1-16 inch be-
tween the turns. II two or more sliders
or contacts are arranged still finer
adjustment will be attainable while,
by providing rotary switches with five
contacts as shown In Fig 81, still bet
ter results will be secured. Although,
as stated, these coils are easily made,
yet they are SO cheap that many pre-
fer TO purchase them ready made rather
than bother making them. Simple |
coils or inductances, however, are even |
simpler, as they consist merely of |
a few turns of insulated copper wire |
wound on pasteboard tube, the num-
Der of turns depending upon the wave
lengths to be received. In some sets
there is but one coil or helix Fig. 80

BOY
Sou I s
Conducted by National Council of the Boy
Scouts of America-)
SCOUT LAWS IN CAMP.

Every boy scout attending the White
Plains Council camp this summer, is
given a little folder on the application
of the scout law in camp.
Here are a few of the paragraphs
discussing the different laws:
A Scout Is Trustworthy.-A scouts
honor is trusted in camp as well as
elsewhere. The things you brought
to camp belong TO you and what the
other campers brought belong to
them. Do not take anything that does
not belong to you without asking per-
mission of the owner. If he loans you
anything you are trusted with it and
are expected to return 1t in as good
condition as when taken to the place
or person from whom borrowed. You
are responsible for any camp tools or
equipment you may use which are the
property Of the camp. Be careful with
them and return them to their proper
place. When on hike with other
scouts or alone, you are on your honor
and expected to behave as scout.
A Scout Is Cheerful.-Smile smile,
smile No long face in camp. 1t will
cheer you up and also the other fell
low. Do your work cheerfully and
don't grumble at hardships nor shirk
your duty. There are duties to be
done In camp; go at them with smile
and you will work better and quicker.
Time is saved by doing your task the
best 1t can be done. Don't consider
it done until it Is done in the very
best way.
A Scout Is Thrifty.-The camp
equipment has cost a great deal Of
money. 1t belongs to the scouts How
long 1t lasts, depends a great deal on
how you use 1t. A scout does not de-
stroy any property whether it belongs
to himself or to another Respect the
rights of others by using their things
in the right way. Make good use Of
your time in camp by learning some
thing that will be of use to you. 1t
isn't necessary to spend all your
because it has been given you I
or you have earned it. To save it .
from being lost or recklessly spent
the camp bank is operated. Deposit 1t
there.

When RadicaIism CooIs.

Adolescence is the true day for
revolt. 4. but one cannot re-
main forever adolescent, and long be-
fore a mans arteries begin to harden
he sees things more as his father and
grandfather saw them. Once he be-
comes an ancestor he imbibes respect
for ancestors and for what they
thought. AS young radicals grow old
er they marry pleasant wives, beget
interesting children, and begin to build
homes in the country, and their zeal
cools Life, they now think, is more
than reform or revolution. There are
the lilies of the field, as sweet to rad
icals as to conservatives. Life
is old and tenaciously conservative,
and so is nature. What is the
use of these endless efforts to bulge
the immovable earth ?"-Walter Weyl,

Weather Affects watcn springs.

Did you ever have the handspring
of a watch break? If you did, the
chances are that this occurred in thun-
derstorm weather, writes c. A. Briggs
in Popular Mechanics Magazine II
has been the experience of many jew
elers that in thunderstorm seasons the
number of broken watch mainsprings
increases greatly. This has been erro-
neously ascribed, though somewhat
vaguely, to the effect of electricity,
magnetism, and of the noise from the
thunder, but an analysis of the ex-
plantations attempted fails to develop
any reasonable relation in accord with
these ideas.
This matter has recently been made
the subject of scientific study. 1t was
finally found to arise from the fact
that at this time of the year the air
was both warm and moist, and that
both of these conditions facilitated
rusting. A small spot of rust often
starts on the spring or in a crack, and
the spring soon weakens and lets go.

Time alitred to man is nsumclenr
for the mastery of even a single art
or profession.
Few men, tiwever great, ever die
with the feeling that they have reached
anything like the standards they set
for themselves.
There is always something still to
learn when the summons comes to lay
labor aside forever.
The surest way to win the measure
of success that your abilities can com
mand is to select the profession or the
trade or the business you most en-
Joy following, and keep at that to the
exclusion of every thing else save
needful recreation.
1t is poor set of brains that cannot
learn to do one thing particularly
well. 1t is a miraculous brain that
can learn TO do two things even fairly
well.

inch thick and inches square and a
wooden or fibre base n inch thick
and inches square, besides screws,
Ddds and ends, etc. The cardboard
tube and rotor form are preferably
soaked in parafine, but this is not
essential. Begin winding the card
board tube, starting II inch from one
and through a small hole, as shown,
and wind on 8S turns of the No. 26
wire, keeping the turns close to-
gether but not touching. Then,
bring the wire across the tube as
shown In Zig. 81, leaving space of
one inch bare and continue to wind
on another 80 turns of wire. In
winding, take off three taps
from each section, one at every
twelve turns, beginning at second turn
from top and leaving two turns at bot
tom Of winding as shown in Fig. 81,
T, T, T, finally passing the end
through a hole as shown. The whole
should then be covered with parafine,
or it may be shellacked, although
shellac will decrease its efficiency and
paraffine will serve every purpose. In
the center, at the bare space which
has been left, Il inch hole should
be bored as shown in the cut. The
next step is to wind the rotor form,
which is done by winding on twenty
five turns of No 20 wire (starting
through a fine hole as shown) which
forms the "tickler" coil Fig. 3S, A,
and leaving the two ends of the wire
about 6 inches long and running the
last end through hole to hold it.
Then, at the other end of the rotor,
wind on fOrty-two turns of No. 2S
wire to form the secondary Fig. 38,
B, and leaving free ends of wire about
6 inches long. Through the center of
the rotor-form, a hole should be
bored "a inch in diameter as shown.
The next step is to mount the
coupler, which is done as follows
In the fibre panel bore a II inch hole
two inches from the top and 3A
inches from one side, Fig. 80. In
the lower corner, place a switch with
six contact points A, and on the right
hand side drill six 3-16 inch holes
for binding posts B. Then make and
place the shaft in the rotor, secur-
ing it by glue, sealing wax or by
means of nuts, according to your
mechanical ability, and attach the two
parts to the panel, fitting dial and
knob to shaft and mounting the panel
on the base. In connecting up, the
primary, secondary and ticker wires
are connected to the six binding posts
and the six tap-offs on the primary |

FLED FROM CHEESE BARRAGE
Commander of Brazilian Warship
Thought Some New Kind of
Bomb Was Being Used.

Probably the strangest and most
curious use to which cheese was ever
put occurred in q naval battle between
Brazil and Uruguay in the mid-Nine-
teenth century, records the Intelli-
gencer.
The Uruguay ship, commanded by
Captain Coe, in the midst of the bat
tie became exhausted of shot. A lieu
tenant reported the facts to Coe.
Powder all gomez" asked Coe.
"No, sir; lots of that yet"
1--WE had darned hard cheese-a
round Dutch one-for desert at dinner
today; do you remember itY' said Coe.
II ought to; l broke the carving
knife in trying to cut 1t, sir"
"Are there any more aboardT'
"About two dozen. We took them
from a drawer"
"Will they go in the 18-pounders?'
''By thunder, commodore, but that's
the idea I'll try EN-"
And in a few minutes the lombard
ing from Goes ship reopened, and the
enemy found more shot flying over
their heads. At last one shot struck
the mainmast, scattering the bits Of
cheese far and wide. Then another
came. Then four or five more slapped
against the sails. The enemy com
mander, unable to decide what was
happening, and thinking that a new
kind of bomb was being used on him,
to back away Little did he know that
he was retreating from barrage OF
Dutch cheese.

voice, With cultivation it could have
been made better. But l know if 1

tivation, l wouldn't have time to learn

Today this man is one Of the high
est paid illustrators in the country.
He might have been a fair illustrator
and fair singer, or good singer
and a bad illustrator. But he chose
the career for which he had the
greater talent, and stuck to it.
The late Charles e. Van Loan in
youth developed considerable talent
for drawing When he was fourteen
or fifteen his teachers predicted that
be would some day be great artist.
But he discovered that he could
write better than he could draw, and
thereafter he drew only to amuse his
friends and his children.
All his energies were bent toward
learning to write, and learn to write
he did.
Many men are born with a little tai
ent for several different activities.
And many such ruin their lives by
scattering their energies instead of
concentrating them on the one thing

some wounded elephant will lead the
way" or at least point out the general
direction he must follow if he hopes to
find the death Valley"
Each time an elephant is not killed out
right its tracks will be followed by native
runners, and the direction carefully plotted
out with the aid of maps, compass and
surveying instruments.
IN the event several elephants take the
same general course, the expedition will
head that way, correcting" the course
from time to time, by new observations.
or as new stories come to hand from the
natives.
Many months will be devoted to the
search. Other rare game will be sought
for the natural history museums OF
France, so that the expedition will not be-
total loss" even If its main object is
defeated. The party, however, believes alb.
solutely in the existence of the Death
Valley" and has the highest hopes that
the expedition will be crowned with com.
plete success.
In the event the expedition succeeds in
containing untold tons OF ivory, the result
will be of importance throughout the en-
tire world, in art, commerce and manu-.
factures of many kinds.
African ivory is preferred above all
other. 1t is superior in texture and color,
as African elephants have larger and finer
tusks than their Indian cousins. Some Of
the African tusks are nine or ten feet In
length and weigh more than 300 pounds.
Consequently, If the Duke of Orleans
succeeds in his perilous expedition, he will
tap" the largest and best source of fine
ivory the world has ever known--and the
mysterious Graveyard of the Elephants
hidden for centuries, may become the
scene OF activities equal to those Of the
Kimberly diamond mines or the gold fields
of the Yukon.

elephant hunting tract of the Sudan, in
Central Africa, guided by native hunters.
Once there, the hunters will obtain
from natives all available information on

will proceed to the most promising ter
ritory.
Then big elephant hunt will take place.

Brennan Is No
Match for Jack
Big fasteners Showing
Against Tracy Eliminates
Him From Consideration.

New York, May 29.-Dan Lyons,
a good authority on boxing, says
there has been talk of matching Bill
Brennan with Champion Jack Demp-
sey. Let it be suppressed. May tho
fates and boxing commissions of the
various states and all the other agen-
cies with the power conspire to pre-
vent it.
Big Bill sacrificed whatever
chances he stood of again engaging
the heavyweight titleholder in fistlc
strife, or something like that. by his
performance against James Tracey.
an Australian, in their recent bout
in Madison Square Garden. Curious
ly, Brennan ultimately was returned
the winner by a knockout in the
eighth round, but the manner IN
which he beat down the invader from
the Antipodes cost rather than gained
him prestige. His performance GER
tainly did not entitle him to even
challenge Dempsey.
Maybe Brennan held Tracey too
cheaply. Maybe he didn't train for
the engagement. He went into action
obviously overweight. Perhaps he
figured Tracey "set up He may
have thought his astute manager was
having a victim led to slaughter by
him. In any event, whatever Big
Bill Brennan's anticipations may
have been he quickly discovered that
instead Of docile sheep he was deal
ing with a sharp clawed lion.
