Most Thoughtful Man.

The most thoughtful man proved
his right to the title recently when

a youngster who was a patient in a
hospital for contagious diseases. The
youngster was to leave the hospital
soon and was disappointed when she
learned she could not take the book,
the reading OF which she had not COM
pleted. After arriving at home the
youngster found a duplicate COPY
Of the book, inscribed as the first one
had been by the same man who had
anticipated the disappointment Of the
child.-NeW York Sun.

 M Heart Of Interior
 For Benefit ALaSkans

of these plants operate on daily sched. ules. Most of the stations have a nor nal range of several hundred miles and are heard thousands of miles under favorable conditions; conse- quently there is no place in the coun- try where radiophone broadcasting may not be heard at times and even frequently. The number of places where a good receiver will be unable to bring in nightly concerts is rapid ly decreasing to the vanishing point, if, indeed, any such places remain to- day. Broadcasting is nearly, if not quite, national utility.
 'In the radiotelephone we have an instrument whose potentialities are amazing. Already it brings amuse- ment and cheer to the hospitals, church services to the home-bound and entertainment and news to the iso- lated
 From the radiophone those who de- sire recreation can secure the end less variety of an ever renewed H. brary of photograph records, yet they are spared any expense beyond the in- itial cost of their receiving sets,
 "rn addition there is provided vocal and instrumental music, concert and dance programs by local artists, lec- lures, health talks, sermons, stock markea bulletins, crop reports, etc., a variety which contains something to suit every taste.
 Radio on the ocean forced it's way into popular imagination when the first call of distress was flashed from a sinking ship.
 Radio as means of international communication already has proved itself not only by service rendered to the general public, but by the ser vice it has rendered to government, to industry and to trade, and now radio in the home is bringing enter tainment and instruction to millions of people who are just beginning to glimpse the possibilities of the new art

MT. and Mrs. Arthur J. Downer, the 1 rAdio broadcasting experts, are in stalling and will conduct the North ern Commercial Co.'S plant, the first of all broadcasting machines in Alas ka, says the Fairbanks News-Miner. In the enthusiasm of their work in Alaska, where it has the greatest of possibilities, they recently spoke sub- stantially, as follows:
 "The manner in which Radio has been taken up by the American pub lie at large is almost incredible.
 "In March, 1922, Secretary Hoover of the U. s. Department of Commerce stated that although only 50,000 radio transmitters and receivers were in use in the United States the year before it was reasonable to place the cur rent number at 600,000 outfits
 Instruments suitable for listening to the broadcast entertainments are being manufactured and sold at a total rate which is reasonably estimated to be in excess of 100000 sets per month. This production, although large, is not large enough to supply the demand for real equipment. "--r--
 "One of the leading magazines of the country comments upon this condition substantially as follows: America has gone insane over radio. Its fascina- tion and wonderful possibilities have fired the popular imagination and cre- ated an overwhelming demand for any old thing which will receive radio phone speech and music. Overnight a boys toy and laboratory instrument has become a necessity for every real home.
 ""The construction of effective worthwhile equipment is a science. The few men who really know any thing about it are hard at work trying to supply the unprecedented and un- expected demand created by radios rapid rise to popularity. Meantime men who know little or nothing about radio are busily making Chinese copies of old stuff to be unloaded upon an un- suspecting public at exorbitant prices. In view of which the public should be warned against purchasing instru- ments other than those produced by the recognized manufacturers of radio electrical equipment

NAIL AND TOADSTOOLS PROVE A BLESSING
 TO INJURED HAND

SPOKANE, Sept. 25.-If a Spokane mother hadn't feared that her small son was poisoned by toadstools, and is the father hadn't forgotten to drive down a nail sticking up in the fence around their home, the third finger of Emergency Officer Joe Scott's right hand would still be useless, as it has been for the past thirty years.
 Thirty years ago Officer Scott was working as a sawyer and from daily use of a big saw callous was formed in the palm of his right hand. The calIous covered the cord of his third right finger. Gradually the callous hardened and pulled the finger down until Scott was unable to straighten it. He intended to have an opera tioi performed to release the finger, but as the years passed he became accustomed to the crippled member and didn't bother.
 A month ago he did go to a doctor. The physician said that the cord would have to be cut loose and that Scott would be laid up for several weeks in consequence. So he again decided to put it off.
 Then an emergency call came in from the mother who thought that her son had been poisoned. Scott an- swered the call and attempted to climb over the fence. A nail caught his trousers and in trying to liberate him. self he lost his balance. In falling to the ground he landed on his right hand The fall bent his finger back so far that the stiffened cord was torn loose. And now, after thirty wears of enforced idleness, the once stiffened finger is doing it's duty again.
 And the mother, whose fear that her small son had been poisoned was the indirect cause of the release or the stiffened member, is quite happy Her fears proved groundless. The father is still undecided whether to drive in the nail or let it remain as it is.

New York.-A large Texas steer
turned Paddy's market, couple Of
blocks west of Times square, into a
topsy turvy scene of frightened shop
pers and peddlers, overturned push
carts and damaged vegetable stocks.
The steer used young woman's red
parasOl as an excuse for abruptly quit
ting a herd on the way to an abattoir.
The young woman even more promptly
dropped her parasol and escaped.
When the steer plunged through
Paddy's market the air was filled with
oranges, fish, shoe strings. cups and
saucers, neckties, lettuce, potatoes,
shoes, bananas. newspapers and Mrs.
Mary Smith. She was hurled upward
when a pushcart hit her.
The steer had stumbled on the push
cart and before it could arise Police
man Michael Mulcahy jumped on it,
grabbed it's horns and 'bulldOgged" the
animal just as the cowboys do in the
