The new 8-hour charging service being installed at the Willard bat tery station will prove a great boon to those fans who want to take It in the morning and have It back to lis ten in with that night. Why Is It Thus? Careful measurements of radio energy have been taken during the past year by the Radio Corporation and the American Telephone and Tel egraph company, as regards the rela tivity of day and night transmission and their report i3 that the energy of the radio wave is about eighteen times as great in the middle of the night as in the daytime in winter. This difference, however, lessens in the summer when ' the nights are shorter. All of which raises the question, "Why Is it thus?" If you can tell why the gasoline burns bet ter when mixed with the cool, moist night air than with the dry, warm air of a hot summer afternoon, per haps you can answer this too. i Washington, Aug. 30 Exchanges between the American and Mexican governments, characterized by ad- ministration officials here as- neces sary preliminaries to the resumption of diplomatic relations, Lave been successfully concluded. All that remains to restore a basis for renewal of friendly conduct of affairs between Mexico City and Washington is the making of a for mal announcement to that effect. One of the exchanges already made pro vides te means for this last act in cident to recognition. Recent estimates of White House spokesmen that actual resumption of relations with Mexico would be an nounced formally the latter part of September, It was learned today, have been altered by the success of the negotiations and in all probability the next day or two will suffice for that purpose. The passing of the present arrange ment by which diplomatic affairs have been carried on unofficially by American representatives in Mexico City, and in Washington by unac credited representatives, will auto matically follow the announcement. While full diplomatic representation in the two capitals will be delayed for a 6hort time, due to the necessity of selecting ambassadors for the re spective posts, means have already been provided for accrediting the charges at the American and Mexi can embassies and tus making possi ble immediate conduct of affirs di rectly between the two governments.

Senator Smoot, in explaining the provisions of the new tax. said that all farmers' sales up to $6,000 would be exempt. Cheap commodities, such as a $3. HO pair of shoes or an enexpensive automobile, would not be taxed, un der the proposed legislation, but ex pensive purchases, such as a $2,500 automobile or a $7.50 pair of soes. will be taxable at the rate of 1 per cent. "The sales tax. which caused con siderable debate at the last session of congress, will not be revived," Senator Smoot, said, 'but in its place will be proposed the expenditure tax, which, I think, will be more service able and cause less opposition.

He claims corsets have "both a curative and preventive value In relation to woman's health. Few women have adequate support for the liver, which has one-thirteenth the weight of the entire body, and the Ktomnch. I think the best support is tho corset. All of which Is confusing to wo men, who were told when the cor set was In fashion that it was ex tremely Injurious to the health. The corset is an artificial, unnatural in strument of torture, and generations of wearing it have weakened fair sex so that some sort of support may be necessary for most of them. Roal danger is the extremes. The wasp waist, for instance.
