BID Ships' Radio.

The radio equipment of the ships
Paris and Lafayette is described in a
recent issue of Radioelectricity. On both
steamers a fve-kilowatt tube trans
mitter has been installed with a wave
range of between 1000 and 5000 me-
ters. A five-kilowatt MOTOR generator
set is used to produce the plate-high
tension for four rectifying and four
oscillatory tubes, and the low voltage
current for the heating Of the filament
of these tubes. Both vessels are
equipped with a radio range-fnder, or
"radio goniometer," which. reduced to
plain English, means a radio compass.
"A distance Of 3,4OO, kilometers has
been covered safely by messages sent
from the transmitter of the Paris.

Radio for Animal TRAINING,

Experiments with the radiophone as
an aid in animal training are to be
made at the Hippodrome, New York
city, by George Power, trainer Of the
elephants, to determine whether it will
be possible for his big pets at some
future date to execute his orders on
the stage while the trainer himself is
absent.

him and rushed to her room to show
Aunt Kate and Uncle Dave this en-
blem of her happiness, the realiza-
ton of her fondest dream, for they
knew what diamond buckles had al
ways meant in Emmy's life. She has
tened to the connecting dressing
room, Aunt Hates name on her lips,
but waited when she heard the word
diamond buckles mentioned.
"You told him, Dave, what impor-
lance Emmy attached to them?" Ques-
toned her aunt, ''and he laughed
about it? That wasn't very nice of
him"
II insisted" Uncle Dave emphasized.
II could have shaken the fellow, put
ting it off from day to day. This morn
ing I cornered him, all right. He said
he lost all his money in the game last
night-another thing ! don't like-so,
Kate, / went out and bought those dia-
mond buckles and told him to give
them to her."
Emmy sat in her room in the dark
for a long time. 1t was as if sud
denly everything was stripped of arti-
t1ciality and fnery and there remained
only the truth, bare and startling. The
Intoxicating excitement of the novelty
of the Unaccustomed surroundings left
her; she felt very sober and-home-
sick. She saw herself as a fortune
hunter, grasping for the material, not
considering the real worth of char
acter. Thaddeus Abbott, stripped of
adornment and atfectedness, was but
a gambler.
'Uncle Dave" whispered Emmy the
next morning, I'm sorry to leave you
this way-I've written Mr.. Abbott a
little note, and here" she pressed
the velvet case in his hand-"I know
you and Aunt Kate will understand"
A very quiet Emmy threw herself in
her mothers arms that night. Il
couldn't go through with it, Mummie-
I want real happiness !"
after all I'm glad you want that
and not money" smiled her mother II
derstandingly.
1t was only a few nights later when
Emmy and Johnny O'Connor sat on
the porch swing discussing the next
family picnic in view, when a lull in
the conversation gave Johnny the OPP
portunity to say rather embarrass-
ingly: Before you went away, Emmy,
| bought you a little ~present-nOt
much, but I thought" He drew a
~pasteboard box from his pocket and
laid it in her open palm.
Emmy raised the lid, and there IN
a neat white card were pinned two dia-
mond slipper buckles! Not real dia-
monds, of course, but dazzling imita-
tons.
"Oh, Johnny" was all Emmy could
say in a clouded, trembling little whis-
per, and looked from the brilliants to
Johnny's eyes. Shine as these paste
diamonds did, they could not shine as
bright and clear as the love in
Johnny's eyes, yet Emmy knew that
this time these buckles were the real
thing for happiness.

OLD ENGLISH FOLK-SONGS
Residents of Villages in Virginia, Ken
lucky and Tennessee Still Sing
Old Ballads.

About a score of years ago Cecil J.
Sharp, realizing that many old English
~folk-songs which had been current were
in danger of dying out, went about the
dialect-speaking parts of England and
transcribed from the lips of old people
the words and music of many old songs
which had been in constant use in the
days of their youth, but were no Ion
ger sung, says the Baltimore News.
In 1916 he completed a trip through
the A~ppalachians where he found the
mountaineers speaking in a vocabulary
which resembled certain older English
forms of speech and still singing many
old folk-songs which had gone out Of
s in England. He has now brought
to an end a similar trip along the Vir-
ginia, Kentucky and Tennessee border
line and found that the villagers still
sing exquisite old English ballads and
dance the oldest English steps. In
other respects they preserve a certain
Old World charm and dignity of man
e and kindness and grace of hos
pitability.

Quicker Thar Lightning.

Speed records are broken every
now and then, but, if the correspond
ent of a Lynn daily newspaper sent
in a %veracious account, the best "rec-
ord" Of the sort was made in Saugus,
Mass. Here's the item as he sent it
in: During the thunderstorm of Fri
day afternoon lightning struck in sew
eral parts of the town, but the a
rowest escape from death was that of
William Milton, driver Of an express
wagon. He saw a flash of lightning
coming toward his wagon, but he
backed his team into the gutter and
thus escaped being killed or badly in
jured.-Youth's Companion.

Insect Paper Makers.

Various species of wasps build their
nests of paper manufactured by them
selves. The material used is decayed
wood, which the wasp rasps off, and
afterwards mashes into a pulp with
its teeth. The pulp 80 formed is
spread out layer upon layer, and al
lowed to dry, when 1t hardens and
forms airs paper. A species of
wasp found in South America builds
a huge nest. So many layers Of pulp
are used that a kind Of coarse card
board is formed, so strong that it will
resist rain and wind, and will some
times last four or five years.

Few Independent In Old Aue.

OF every one hundred men, only
three have a sufficient competency to
keep them comfortable and independ-

100000 widows in the United States,
more than 100000 Of whom are over
Isixty-ive years Of age, 80 per cent of
whom are dependent on relatives or
charity.
