change them back again Into the human
I voice. Was anything equally marvelous
j ever Imagined about the powers of the
I magicians of oldT The only difference
j Is that the ancients merely dreamed, and
we first dreamed, and then acted. The
Imagination Is the prime motor for both,
j but they saw Its pictures) without an ef
fort to transform them Into realities,
whilu wo liave made them substantial by
the nld of science.
Many Inventors are working upon the
problem of malting wireless telephony at
rrrcat distances commercially successful,
( it Is probable that several different sys
I terns will be perfected, but the base of
i all Is tho same. It Is always the elec
1 trio waves that carry the Impulses trans
.mltted from tho human organs of speech,
ready to be retransformed when they
reach their destination, into articulate
words. The difficulties an purely mat-
ters of detail. There- are American
terns. German aystema, French systems,
Italian systems, and all of them are
tnoro or less successful.
As far as I am aware, the record of
distance at present Is held by Mr. Vannl,
the director of the Telegraphic Institute
of Rome He has transmitted human
speech by electric waves from Home to
Biclly and from Home to Tripoli, acrosr
the Mediterranean sea. The greatest dis
tance yet" attained by him Is 1,000 kllome-ters-about
S miles. For shorter dis
tances the transmission Is easy, not only
by his apparatus, but by others.
One curlovsj fact about wireless
telephony Is that It carries the voice al
most Infinitely quicker than it could be
transmitted by soUpd. provided that
round could be heard so far. A sound
wave would require more than three,
quarters of an hour to go 600 miles
through the air; an electric wave goe
that distance Is one-three-hundredths of
a second. Practically we may say that
lha transmission Is instantaneous.
The isms thing Is, of course, true of
Pimple signals transmitted by wireless
telegraphy. They could go round the
' earth In about one-seventh of a second.
jThis fact Is about to be taken advantago
of in order to ascertain more accurately
than it 'a known at present the longitude
ibf Washington. Beginning In October
thls year, and continuing until April
'next, signals are to be exchanged for
hls purpose between the ptffel tower
In Paris and the Naval Itadlo station at
, Arlington, near Washington. These slg.
nale will probably traverse the Atlantic
In about one-fiftieth of a second.
. Already the time signals from the
Eiffel tower are receLved by ships far
out on the ocean. But these communlca
! tlons. which enable the navigator to de
J termlne Ills longitude with hitherto unat-
lalnablo accuracy, will surety seem far
more wp.nderfjU. when. Instead of mere
telegraphic, dots and dashes, the captain
bf a ship In mid-Atlantic hears a voice
from Paris, dropping down out of the
Wuc and eeylng, as If the speaker worn
close by his ear: "Twelve o'clock at the
Eiffel tower."
But we quickly become accustomed to
marvels when they are of everyday oo
urrenre If we did not, we should be
wondering at ourselves all the while. Our
j bodies are as amazing as wireless tele-
pi-onj and our m rids infinite y more

Have you the courage to smile? I do
not ask. "Have you tho disposition to
smlle?"for every 'woman has the disposi
tion to smile.
Every woman has the knowledge that
a smile radiates light over hrr whole face.
And every woman smiles 'if only she
has good teeth to give her the courage
to smile and show them.
Even, white, well-cared for teeth. They
add charm to a charming face. Thoy
even, make you forget Irregularity of
feature and flaws In coloring.
Come, "madam, confess, have you given
your teeth the care they deserve? And
mademoiselle, be warned before It is too
late. Your teeth are one of your great
beauty assets.
But they are perishable, they ara easily
flawed, nnd .they will repay you measure
for measure for either neglect or care.
Do you know one reason why the peas
ant woman and the middle-class "hour
geoslr" of my own country fade so early?
It Is because In youth they have spark
ling girlish faces lit by smiles and flash
ing teeth.
Soon decay takes Its toll the teeth be
enmo yellow and broken! thoy fall out
from ill use and neglect. Tho cheeks be
come hollow when tho foqth support Is
removed; tho pretty facial curve Is lost
and a smile bocomes Impossible.
Now the first .rule to follow In caring
for your teeth Is to have them examined
by a reliable dentist every six months.
Whatever sacrifice of luxury this means,
you shduld stll adhere to this rule. A
tiny cavity can be rilled painlessly uud
cheaply and a tilling In time saves the
tooth. So consult your dentist regularly
and save big cavities in teetli and pocket
book. Don't fear a toothache that Is brought
on by work in the dentist's choir. If
vlslblo decay starts attend to It at onco.
Jf no decay Is visible or can be felt with
the sensitive tonguo tip, it Is still h
necessary precaution to visit the dentist
twice a year.
Ufe peroxide to disinfect the mouth and
lips a.nd allow no soreness to persist in
either place. Absolute cleanliness In and
about the mouth cavity is as Important
as Is every other sort of bodily cleanli
agents for rapid decay. The slightest
crack In the enamel utlows decay an en
tering wedje.
An overabundance of any one princlptn
In the system Is Inadvisable Too .much
acid or too, much alkallno matter will In
jure the teeth. The dirt ehould counter
act this. If you aro a gourmet and
cannot resist tho delights of the menu,
find out if your mouth is over-actd or
over-alknilne.
For tho acid mouth, bicarbonate of soda
and water will mako a counter irritant,
mouth wash. ' For the alkaline mouth
vlnegur has beon used with good results
I recommend carbon and common soot
as u tooth cleanser, since I have used
them for years, and my teeth are white
and mine own.
And lis the final aid for teeth I recom
mend fresh air. Ijet us return to our be
ginning a smile. Smile If you have good
teeth and smile because It Is good for
your teetli. It gives them a chance for
the cleansing, renewing, growing power
of fresh air.
Ho, chere amies, here Is my slogan for
beautiful teeth: Have tho courage tit
smile for your teeth's sake and have
teeth that will give you the courage to
smile.
The Girl Who is "Knocking"

"Do you think a girl who talks about
her friends is a girl to trust?
"My best, friend has been talking about
me, and now she wonders why I don't
want her for a friend any more.
"She says she didn't mean any harm
but somehow I can't feel tho same to
tier.
"Do you blame me? She has been a
good filend. She took care of me when
I was ill, and once she lent me money;
but now I do not want to think of that
"What do you think about It all?"
Talk about you, does she! Well, what
crime Is that?
Who aro you that you shouldn't be
talked about, pray, and what did the
"false friend" say auy how?"
Did she Just say that you were ex
travagant, or that you dyediyour hair, or
(hat the new dress you are so proud of
It your last year's turned? What of it
f she did?
Why shouldn't she say any or all of
these things If they happen to be true?
Do you think you ought to sit some
where on a pedestal and have every one
glad to merely gaze upon your perfec
tions, and let 't go at that?
You see their faults plainly enough,
don't you?
And whisper, don't you ever speak qf
thorn once In a while? Honest and truly
now; think back. Didn't you ever "talk
about" this friend .In particular, In no
very particular fashion?
So she took care of you when you were
111, and she lent you money and now you
don't want to see her Vny more. But.
my dear ohlld, you can't do that sort of
thing, you can't really not and respect
ourself at all. What she did Is jxist.
Your memory of It Is not past, is It?
When you take favors like that from
a friend, you may let the friend forget
you can't.
She looks ugly to you now, does she?
Well, how did she look the day she lent
you the money? Tell me tliat.
And whisper, who told you that she
"talked about you" nd how do you llko
the person who did It?
Trust her again, I'd trust her twice as
far as I'd trust the one who told me
what she's said, or Idnted It, which Is
twice as bud.
These people who whisper to you, "I
hate to hurt your feelings, but you ought
to know." and then tell you a whole lot
!of stuff that you ought not to know at
Of course you have faults, and of, all -I wish I could take the whole bunch

Science Questions
By EI)An IjUCIBN IiAIIKIN
Question-It Is thought that In spaco
eternal cold and darkness prevall-what
then Is the explanation of the fact tlmt
both light and heat from the sun, some
50,000,000 miles away, In cold space, reach
tho earth?
Answer Heat and light as such do not
reach the earth from our own and 100,
000,000 more suns, IUdiant energy Is
transmitted by undulations or waves In
electrons, which energy is In the forms
of waves of varying Isngths and ampli
tudes. "When romo of these energy Im
pulses Impinge on matter able to receive
and appropriate them heat and light re
sult. Many molecules In many thousands
of kinds of matter are able to translate
energy waves Into heat, while others are
translated as light on the retina of tho
eye and in the brain. But no heat or
light dovelopes until the waves strike
forms of matter fitted to receive, ap".
proprlsto and translate. Thus energy
will pass through a "burning glass" made
of Ice, converge to a focus, and set light
objects on fir.
Q.-Ifas It been practically proven
that ether does not exist? If nothing
exists but electrons, and these are relat
ively far apart, ,how can the various
waves of heat, light and electricity, of
such different lengths, be transmitted
therein? ,
A. It has not been proved that other
does or does not exist. But the capital
discovery of electrons and the study of
their properties, these and more, seem to
meet all requirements of physicists, In
transmissions of space waves of all
known kinds, lengths and rates of un
dulation, and their terrlflo speeds. If
electrons could by any human means
Jmposslble, since they repel be forced to
lie side by side, then a row one Inch
long would contain X2,TOO,000,000,000. The
shortest space wa,ves so far detected by
the most delicate photography are 261.000
to an Inch. Omit the twelve trillion, then
there would still be' 700,000,000,000 electrons
