Telephone conversation between New York and London or Paris are predicted as a common event within a few years due to recent experiments. The powerful station being developed at Carnarvon, Wales, will be excelled by the station at Port Jefferson, Long Island, where even more powerful tubes are being installed. The two stations will communicate
first in code and then experiment with direct trans-Atlantic telephone communication. Lighting Circuit Antenna. The new attachment for plugging into an electric light socket and using the wires for an antenna is proving especially popular in cities and in apartment wireless set installations, where landlords are likely to object to outside aerials. The device, which is simply a plug with condensers contained in a compact case, and several
feet of wire, has been on the market for several weeks, and one is used by Robert Pierson, of Liberty. He reports distinguishable and satisfactory signals received through it, although'
they are considerably weaker than
those from the "usual antenna. Locals.

A two-year-old stock of a brand of soft drink no longer manufactured was bought at bargain prices by the stand owner, and no sampling proved so much "nearer" beer than usual that he bought all he could get Stocking his stand with it, he hired half a dozen loafers to hang around the stand with an imitation of a real drunk.

White Snakeroot Found OnLosantviUeFarm; Check Climbing Milkweed During a weed survey of Randolph county conducted by A. A. Hansen of the Purdue university agricultural extension deaprtment. a poisonous plant known as white snakeroot -was located nn a farm at Losantville.
The white snakeroot is tne cause or a fatal disease known as Trembles among sheep and cattle. The poison Is carried in the cow3 milk, causing -a disease anions humans known as milk sickness. The plant already has! caused the loss of five sheep on this farm. Eradication measures are now under way and the plant will soon be j cleaned out of the pastures. - White ', ""snakeroot grows typically in -woodland ; pastures and is rarely found in the j open. ' ' i Another interesting development of) the survey was the discovery of a, climbing milkweed on a farm neari Winchester. Climbing milkweed is a:
vine that climbs on, corn, frequently to such an extent that the corn is overwhelmed. Since the seeds may be carried long distances by the wind in a similar manner, ta ordinary milkweed seed, the climbing milkweed is a very dangerous plant. As .far as could be learned, only two patches occur in Randolph county, and measures were taken for destroying these patches before the seeds have a chance to ripen and scatter over the neighborhood. The plant is now in full flower, alauough a few young pods have already formed. -

A simple method for completely removing every trace of hair or fuzz is
here given. This is painless and usually a single treatment will banish
even stubborn growths. To remove hairs, make a thick paste with some powdered delatone and water, spread
on hairy surfa.ee and after about two minutes rub off, wash the skin and the hairs are gone. This method will not mar the skin, but to avoid disoppointment, be certain you get delatone. Advertisement.
