Coal Mines Have “Wired Wireless” Springfield, Ill, Aug. 15.—Possibi- lity of the establishment of commun- ieation between underground mine workers and the surface through the development of the line radio, or “wired wireless,” is given further im- petus as the result of tests conducted in several Illinois mines. The “wired wireless” utilizes trol- | ley wires, mine tracks, compressed air and water piping, and similar conductors for voice transmission. It is reasonably sure to withstand severe disturbances occas! mine explosions or cave department of the interior, who is making a special study of the mat- ter. In tests conducted in a coal mine 400 feet deep, no difficulty was ex- perienced on the surface in receiving radio messages from a set mounted upon a mine locomotive, as long as the apparatus was in the vicinity of the metallic carriers, Experiments show that the range in the average coal mine is only a few hundred feet when no conductors are present, but [may be several thousand feet when operating in the proximity to metal carriers. 1 DUCK FISHES Schenectady, N. Y., Aug. 16.— “Bitters” is the only fishing duck in the world. Charles Dubois, the owner, ties a fishline and a baited hook to the leg of the duck and lets it swim back and forth across the lake.

Back In the days of the Amert. ; can Revolution a man named Town- send Speakman was running a little drug store in Philadelphia. He 8! plied medicines for Washington's | army, and was pretty’ well known. | One day, says a writer In the Pro- | gressive Grocer, a doctor asked him | to fill a prescription of carbongted water, Druggist Speakman sue: | ceeded In compounding the concoc- | tion, ‘The doctor's patient liked the new water. Soon, one patient after another pmssed the word around and, before’ long, Druggist Speakman“had lots of calis for ‘the’ new medicine water, it Druggist Speakman was @ keen business man and conceived the idea of flavoring the medicine water with fruit juices to increase its popularity. |The plan worked. Its popularity spread Ike wildfire. That was the beginning of the car- donated soft drink business. he soft drink bifsiness has been growing ever since. Last year, for exaniple, the people in the United States consumed 8,000,000,000 bottles of non-alcoholic beverages, an aver- axe of 75 bottles for every man, woman and child.

The next day the spiritualist called on the scientist with hope that his effort had been success- ful. “What did you think of my lecture?” he asked, “Well,” said the scientist, “I couldn’t sleep last night,at all, and I lay it to your talk.” The spiritualist was highly fl tered. knew my wake you think,” he said. not so?! “I am not so certain about: that. Wherever I sleep during the day I cannot sleep at night.”—Los An- geles Times, What Did Peggy Say? In her “Memories,” Katherine Tynan writes at some length of Dudley Hardy, the great Bohemian: “T can remember an evening when Dudley slipped the; tablecloth off the table and was Maud Allen. In ; the midst of the. delicious perform- {ance in came the stolid English { cook, Later when, in the Irish way, 41 went to the kitchen fire to warm my feet, I said to her: ‘Isn’t Mr. | Hardy funny, cook?’ ‘Well, I dtd {think so at first, mum,’ she said, | ‘but now I've got used to him,and I {don’t take no notice.” Once we {came in to find Dudley in a des- |perate mood. There had been a | terrible cheap French lamp in the | dining room, all ornament, that gave {a glaring unshaded light. We found it beautifully swathed with white silk lace, looking all a lamp ought to look. But Dudley sat, his head in his hands, a guilty creature with a conviction of guilt. He had cut up some of Peggy's (his wife’s) beautiful Paris lingerie to make the lamp-shade.” argument would “Is tt Relic of Roman Era Among the interesting curios to be found in a museum at Oxford, England, is a huge stone sack. It is carved as though fresh from a man’s back; it bears the mark of a rope which once encircled it in two places, and has the usual puckers at the mouth, where the string once. secured the opening, All over the stone’ can be seen the marks of the eBarse sacking which once covered it. Its history is curlous. Some years ago it was fished up in the Thames below London _ bridge, where it must have lain for cen- turies, Some workman in the time of the Romans was carrying this sack of cement from a moat to the shore, when the burden slipped from his shoulders into the water. There, under the action of thew ter, it became solid and, as years passed away, the sack at last rotted off, leaving only the hardened ce- ment within, ; Oldest Work of Fiction “The Tale of Two Brothers,” so | far as anyone now knows, Is the | oldest-existing piece of fiction, It was written 32 centuries ago by.
