Two Detroit Boys Install Apparatus
Which Works Well.
Harry Stewart and his chum, Royal
Poller, have provided the manual
training department of the Franklin
School In Detroit with something
which few If any other schools In the
I'nited States possess at the preseat
time. This Is a complete wireless
telegraph outfit capable of reviving
ind sending messages over Ion? ills
.antes, according to the "American
Boy." Stewart Is 14 years old, while
hi3 chum Is a year younger.
For a long time these boys have
een Interested In wireless telegraphy
ind Stewart has had a wireless out.
it in his home for the last elghteeu
months. These boys conceived the
dca that it would be both Instructive
nd Interesting to provide their school
vith this apparatus, and after consid
erable argument induced their prln
lrl and the Detroit school board
.uthoritles to permit the" Installation.
Not only did these boys put In the
rparatvs but they made In the
naiiual training department of the
chool all of the woodwork which
he wireless requires. Harry declares
hat they have raught messages from
'leveland and Toledo and that the
c'-.col apparatus has a capacity of
ei:ding over seventy miles.
' 'c.v an Old Hunter Cooks Wild Ducks
Many persons Imagine a wild duck
htuld only be roasted or baked,
whereas that is the poorest and most
unsatisfactory method of all. Nine
times out of ten a baked wild duck
"on:ps to the table dry shrunken
ill there is nothing but the flavor
md a little meat on the broas: and
hlshs left.
A better way Is to joint two or
three ducks (three to five If thev
are teal or butter ducks) in o small
pieces, put In a pot with pickled
pork, sllred short, and one good sued
onion to the duck. Salt to suit the
taste, and set on slow fire, where ihey
should stew gently four hou-a, never
never less than three. After this has
cooked down to a sort of i'io.vn pot
roast the whole will be found succu
lent, juicy in dressing ducki nnd all
wild game the better.
Deserving of Promotion.
Sol Gage, superintendent of trans
portation, recently recommended a
man in the Lake Shore's emp.oy for
an increase In pay. Mr. Gage "ml this
employee engaged In some cuTespon-
dence over a technical detail of some
transportation regulation, 'n reply to
Mr. Gage's third letter thl loiter
came:
"Instead of clarifying the Situation
your letter of yesterday serves mther
to obfuscate It."
"Any servant of a grea". eorp:ra
tion who can use the word "obfuscate.'
and use It right, deserves more than
$60 a month, and I am goin to see
that he gets It," says Mr. uage.

Window Display Forms.
New In fixtures for window display
are for women's waists and for men's
and women's hoisery, forms that are
made not of wax or o'her opaque or
solid material but of glass. By day
these forms are used just as any
similar forms would be, by night they
are lighted up by electric lights
placed within them, the glass of which
they are made being frosted to dif
fuse the light evenly. Thus Illu
minated these glass forms show the
goods displayed upon them, In pattern
and color, even more strikingly by
night than by day. New York Sun.
The Push Man Tnin.
One of the quaintest sights In Japan
Is the "push man train," a little rail
way which runs for nineteen miles
along the seacoast between Aiaral
and Odawara, taking four hours to
complete the Journey. ;,
Each car Is hauled and pushed up
hill by coolies and then allowed to
run down the next Incline by its own
momentum, the coolies jumping on be
hind. Wh?n skirting precipice and
rounding sharp curves this becomes
somewhat exciting, the seniati"n is
rather like being in a runaway
switchback car.
Typhoid Fever Specific.
A Cape Colony (South Africa) doc
tor has recently been experimenting
with a new drug In the treatment of
typhoid fever. It Is an extract of the
plant called monsonla birlora, and con
aiCB, besides tannic and gallic acid,
an active principle or principles which
Dr. Maberly has named entericln.
The result of the doctor's experiments
seem to indicate that entericln may
be a useful remedy in typhoid, but his
cases have been too few to Justify
any definite conclusions.
Bantam Hen Quail Brood.
I.ee Botts, son of Dr. A. T. Botts of
Glasgow, had five almost full g'own
quail that were hatched and raised
by a bantam hen. They Imitate
chickens in all of their habits except
to go on a pole to roost.
The mother's repeated attempts to
induce her flock to observe the cus
toms of fowldom have failed, and she
goes with the quail to a corner of the
henhouse, where she hovers them all

The heaviest rainfall ever recorded
for a single day on the isthmus of
Panama occurred during the great
flood of December, 1910, between the
hours of 10 a. m. December 28, and
10 a. m., December 29, when the rain
gauge at Porto Hello showed a fall
of 10.8 6 Inches. The total fall for the
month was 58.17 Inches, which Is
equal to an average rate of nearly two
Inches a day.
Signs of the Times.
"I see the young lady next door has
a beau." "She assures me that It Is
purely a platonlc affection." "In that
cose you had better look over some
thing cheap in clocks, or something
of that kind.-
Having an Ideal Means Much.
"Your circumstances may be un
congenial, but they shall not long re
main so if you but perceive an ideal
and strive to reach It. You cannot
travel within and stand still with
out." James Allen.
She Is Almost 6 Feet 10 Inches Tall
and Weighs 210 Pounds.
New Yorkers who have beio taking
the children to the circus anil who
noticed a somewhat solid lady by tho
name of Snndwina Hipping a mere
man up and down and casually hold
ing him at arm's length by l lie & ruff
of his neck may be Inteusled t.
know something about her.

How He Killed a Caribou.
"The only caribou that I ever shot,"
i:d Dr. Oscar H. Sellengins, "came
y way In a somewhat peculiar man
er. I was up In the New Brunswick
ountry for big game and my guide
nd myself had tramped about the
ountry for hours without seeing any.
Ve were going through the woods
hen the guide remarked, 'Well, Just
n the spot where you are standing
i doctor from Boston got a caribou
ast year. Maybe we'll see one now.
The guide had scarcely got through
alklng when I happened to turn
iround and there was one of the big
niiuals tramping along, but beyond
;unshot. He was coming my way,
lowever, and I prepared for him.

A-e got to him." Columbus Despatch.
The First Champagne.
'When champagne was first In
.roduced into England it was still red
wine. How to make it sparkling and
effervescent was the Invention of
Dom Perlgnon, a Benedictine monk of
'.he Abbey of Hautvllliers, who died In
171.1.
The secret was discovered about
1692 and revolutionized the trade of
'he district. Whether It was entirely
he old monk's own Invention has
been called In question, hut It Is cer
tain that he was the first to use corks
for closing the bottles of wine, which
up to that time had been stopped
merely by hemp soaked In oil. Not
until the end of the eighteenth cen
tury did the sparkling wine become
favored In England.
Byron's Grammar School.
J. Pittendrlgh Macgillivray, sculptor
has informed the committee that he
will have the Byron statute for Aber
deen completed by June, 1913, so as
to coincide with the Jubliee year of
the Grammar School's entry on Its
present buildings.
The poet was a pupil at the Gram
mar School when It stood on School-
hill. The figure, which I3 to be of
bronze, will be nine feet high and
placed on a granite pedestal twelve
feet high. The movement for a
statute to commemorate Byron's con
nection with the seminary was or
glnated by Dr. Morland Simpson, the
present rector. London Globe.
Founder of Anti-Treating League.
Dr. VV. H. Cocker, J. P.. of Black
pool, who died recently, was the
''ounder of the Antl-Treating League.
'Pay for your own drinks," was the
'octor's motto In founding the Antl
Treatlng League. "I believe," Dr.
?ocker would say. "when men pay
'or their own drinks the consumption
v! alcohol will greatly diminish. The
treating evil Is greater than drink It
self, because the man who Is treated
always expected to treat back. If
ve stamp out treating we shall have
'one something to make lingland
ober." London Evening Standard.
Monster Gar in Ohio Creek.
Thomas Q. Pringle while fishing
i'h George Dohr In Deer Creek near
ount Sterling recently pulled out a

Celluloid Collars for John Bull.
White celluloid collars, shirt fronts
ind cuffs, are selling well in Man
chester, and Vice-Consul John W.
Thomas thinks that the trade shcild
prove attractive to American inanu
facturers. The English workingman
with a family finds in these articles
it great saving both in washing and
durability. The retail price averages
12 to 16 cents each, the manufacturers
having their own retail stores. Daily

Killed Big Turkey In Kentucy.
E. D. Polley, a farmer of the Lime
Fork Creek section of the ecunty,
killed one of the largest wild tut keys,
a gobbler, shot in the mountains in
many years. It measured live feet
and ten Inches from tip to tip and
weighed twenty-three pounds. The
fowl was on exhibition in the 1 olley

Putting It the Wrong Way.
"Many a speaker is lauded as 'hav
lng a fine command of language,' of
whom It might better be said, that 'his
language has a command of him,' He
has the same 'command of language''
that a rider has of a horse that is
running away with him." Whately.
Be Ready for Opportunity.
"There is scope for chance every
