MARCONI IS BEATEN. American Inventor Puts ItpJlian's Device in the Shad'. Can Trnimmlt 51! W orils a Minute to Two \Vir*-> Atiiio*i>liere Will Sot Aflfoct the Work of Ike New liiNtrumeula. Wireless telegrapliy has been taken out of tlie realm of theory and experi ment and made a profitable commer cial possibility by the invention of Dr. Lee J)e Forest, an American in ventor and a graduate of Yale, lie has perfected the DeForest receiver,or "responder," which consists of a small glass tube, open at both ends and hold ing in its bore two small wires. Be tween the ends of this is is placed a small bit of special paste which or dinarily offers a passage for the local current. When the electrical wave from the sending machine traverses the responder on its way from the up right wire to the ground it increases the resistance of this device, but its conductivity is automatically restored the instant the electrical wave has passed, A telephone receiver in circuit with the responder will give a sound which is an exact reproduction of the sound of the sending spark, from which emanates the electrical waves. 3io relay or tapping-back device is required, as is the case with Marconi's receiver. Hence the simplicity and the great speed of transmission possible with the De Forest system. During the last week two operators of the l)e Forest Wireless Telegraph company accomplished a feat which, while new in the annals of wireless tel egraphy, is only significant of the possibilities before the responder or automatic receiver in combination with the telephone. At the station of the De Forest com pany at 17 State street, New York, two DR. LEE DE FOREST. (Inventor Who Has Just Improved the Wireless Telegraph.) messages were received and read simultaneously by the two operators listening at two separate telephone re ceivers attached to one and the same De Forest responder, and without, any especial attuning or sy ntoning device in circuit. One message was from the De Forest Statin island station and was sent quite rapidly, .''o words per min ute, with a high-frequency spark (1~0 per second). '1 lie other was front some foreign station, evidently a Marconi installation. The speed was about ten words per minute, sent with a low-fre quency interrupter. One operator con centrated his attention upon the Htaten island message while the other was able to pick out by their peculiar drumming sound the s.'gnals from the other station. The fact that without any tuningde viee this t an be accomplished with one titid the same responder demonstrates tlie advantages of the telephone re ceiver over any sounder or tape-re cording device, and the greater im munity of the De Forest system from atmospheric and foreign disturb ances. So far as has been published two simultaneous messages is the record to-day for any tuned or i-yntonized system in its present development, and it is inten st ing to know that, with two styles of interrupter and sending speed sultlc Itntly diversified, the same can be accomplished by the human ear listineniiig in a telephone con nected with a De Forest i> ponder.

Compared wttli t'miltnl Invested, the Vounit' Paper Merchants Extend liiirne Ain nun I. Who is it in Chicago that extends the largest amount of credit compared with the capital invested in his call ing? It isn't the banker, neither is it the dry-goods merchant, nor the gro cer, nor the butcher. It is the news boy, says the Chicago Chronicle. He buys probably one dollar's worth of papers every day, and his custom ers pay him if they have time, and if they haven't he has to wait until some other day. "When it conies to giving credit, us newsboys has got all these million aire guys skinned to death," said "Manny" Peters, who lias a regular "stand" at the Lexington avenue and Sixty-Third street station of the South Side elevated. "1 have a regular line of customers who always buy from me," he continued. "One day last week I was laid up with a cold. The next day almost every one of my patrons stopped and wanted to know where I had been. Some of 'em said they had had togo to their offices without any papers just because they had intended to buy from me. You see, I sometimes go up on the elevated trains to scare up extra trade, and my regular people expected to see me after they got aboard l . I wasn't there and neither was any other newsboy, so they had to sit around all the way downtown without reading anything except the advertisements on the bill boards.

MOTT, Superintendent of Public Schools, Richmond, Indijina. t========^=======r=======^======r=r==» BHE best period of human life is childhood. It is the richest and largest. It has most sympa thies, the most capacities, the most pleasure of any time between birth and old age. IF THE PRINCIPLES OF CHRISTIAN ETHICS ARE TO TAKE ROOT IN THE The true warp and web of Christian char acter and faith are necessarily wrought out in the school period of life. Ideas cannot become the permanent pos session of the world unless they enter in through the door of child hood. The results of child study have shown to the educational world that it is at the age of from 12 to 15, the opening period of adolescence, that the individual is most susceptible to the influence of culture and refinement. In most lives this is the time of the dawn of the real educational and religious instincts. It is the waking time of life in body, mind and heart. Now it is we find that subtle emo tions are settling into dispositions, and dispositions are becoming character. The great instincts of altruism begin to be felt and to transforuiwthe soul, and there conies to tlte individual the great con ception that life is after all not to be lived for self, but for others. There comes to the soul the instinct of subordination and sacrifice, "of being ready to die for that we should live for." It is in this pe riod that the principles of religious character can be most surely ap propriated by the lite of the individual. This is the age of confirma tion in the Greek, Roman and Lutheran churches. The statistics ol the leading Protestant churches show that this is the age in which occur the greatest number of lasting conversions. Till-: CURAT NT. Kl> < >!• Tl IK Co.MPI.KX CIVILIZATION ( )!"

An interesting account, of a cholera cure, invented by the friars of Santo Thomas college, in the Philippines, and sold to the natives at two and one-half cents, Mexican, Is contained in a copy of the Manila American re ceived at the war department the other day. It is described as re sembling faith cure, being issued in form of circulars, at the top of which is printed "Saludable remedio contra la pest," which, translated, means "Remedy against the pest." "Below this inscription is a cross and I a prayer. j These circulars were sold for two ! and one-half cents, Mexican, and, ac cording to the reports, received an enormous distribution. Dr. Hermann, of the Manila board of health, in speaking of the issuance of the pa per, said: "In the prayer itself there is no harm. If the natives find any relief from the terrors of cholera in prayer, by nil means let them pray. The difficulty, however, does not lie in this direction. The spreading of these circulars through the land has a tendency to influence the natives sigainst the practical aborts of the board of health to down the plague. It is by such means that the priests hold their power over the people and cause them to adhere to the old su perstitions that even from the faith cure standpoint could not be justi , lied. | "T certainly cannot commend the ! sale of these circulars, and believe j that the influence of the priest lias j been an impediment in our campaign . against the cholera."
