HV CIIAIIMIS P. STFJNMIJTZ Notffl lUcctric! Wizard There may be a time when power to turn the wheels of Industry will be furnLfihed by radio. In ome respects radio power transmission exists today, for the message you receive by radio has b"-eTi carr.ed by the power of electromagnetic waves from the sending to tho receiving: station. Tho problem of power transmission essentially differ. from tlvat of the transmission for communication in that in power transmission most, or at Ioo.it a large part, of tho power font out by the generating station must rrive at the receiving station to make It economical totran-

nilt tho power. Hence tho problem of radio power transmission i that of directing tho radio waves o closely that a large part of their power remains together. o as to be picked up by the recivir.? ftation. Much successful work has boon done in directing rdio waves. For Instance, our tran.4-.tlantic stations send out most of their power eastward. Hut tili, even as directed, the power scatters over the coasts of Europe from Norway' to Spain, so that It Is impossible to pick up an appreciable part of it. The second possibility of radio

powor transmission at iea.st tneoretically Is by resonant vibration or standing1 waves. A station tuned for the same wave length as tho .sending station would reonato with the standing: electromagnetic wave LsHuing from the pending station', thereby stopping Its

Kincheloe mustn't go away; he " "What's the trouble with you?" her grandfather demanded, se-iilng her arm. "Step in here and explain whflt's come over you." He used Just enough force to overcome her physical opposition. She did not struggle violently, as his grasp warned h"r that if she exerted more strength, he would a '..so employ more and overpower her. He was angry with her for what she had done in the night and for having gone out early this morning: but he waa big and Arm-handed and eo much as usual, that she cried out confidently: "Grandfather, you don't know what he's dona!"

The part.s are put up to tell, more than to serve Tho reult If an overstocked competitive market which confutes the buyer. Ho cannot know what product will give him the service he demands. He pajs, out exorbitant sums for materials that fail to prove their worth. This situation ha brought about the organization of the National Radio Chamber of Commerce and of local branches, the chief purpose of which will be to protect the radio

fan from unscrupulous manufacturers. The National ItBtail Dry floods Association, of which the department stores of the country are members, has also decided to guard its clientele from such producers. At the request of these organizations., the U. S. Bureau of Standards and tho Klctrieal Testing laboratories of New York have arranged to Inspect all radio apparatus that is submitted for sale in the department and other stores. Other associations also have adopted some scheme by which tho proven products of their members may survive the competition of the mushroom products.

a couch on one side; upon a grand piano at tho cast end with a tall lamp and a music cabinet nearby. In the wall to Ethel's left, which was the interior wall, was a large and beautiful fireplace with a high, marble mantel. The room ehowed no sign of ellsorder or of violence done there; ye$ sight of the room itself amazingly disturbed her." She did not know why, at first; $he merely felt frightened as by something uncanny. "Asa, I've been in this room. I've never been in this house before; but I've been in this room!" Ethel exclaimed. "Yes?" Asa inquired unable to comprehend her. It was plain to her that this room once had been part of a French building. French of the sixteenth or seventeenth century. Ethel's recognition of this partly explained her imprcftsion of familiarity hero; when phe was a child at her aunt's chateau, aunt Cecilia had taken her on visits to chateaux of many of uncle

Hllalre's friends. She might indeed have been in this very room before. Ii was hopeless for her to try to recall from her memories of when sho was five and eight. Hor mind waa not now dwelling upon what might have been her own association with this room. What v. as Barney Loutrelle's? He had btn sent across the ocean to the' room. Why? j She moved nearer the mantel and gazed at tho design Incised over the fireplace; it bore a dignified, formal device like yes, very like the devico wrought upon Barney Loutrelle's ring. They searched the house thoroughly. iNo one, living or dead, was in the house; nowhere had they come upon sign cf violence or indication cf cause for Barney Loutrcllo's disappearance. "Where's he gone, Asa?" Ethel appealed fin all 3'. "How do I know?" the Indian returned irritably, ami I'the! appreciated that his nerves wcri cn edtre. She hoard scratching: U the deor and. remembering the dogs, she recalled tho brown mat in Lad's hair. "Let them in. Am," eh directed. When the door was opend and the dogs ran In. she thought that they rushed into tho salon because shi? was there; but Lad only brushed a ssi ins! her on his way to the further end of the pre at room where he thrust his head down and smelled of the floor, whimpering and scrambling about in a circle. Iass blundered about near him so excitedly that Ethel followed to see what was there, only to find a space of bare, varnished floor. But her Interest stirred Lad to leap upon her and dash to tho door on the fouth which communlcatM with the outside- steps down the Rock to the summer landing. When she looked through the ;lass cf this door. Ethel observed for the first time that thoo steps showed the depressions of deep footsteps. Th dogs jumped Into tho snow and floundered down the steps to the ice wherei they shook themselves and rolled over, barking. She was fearfully expecting that Iid wa? leading her to the ort of horror which she had believed to be In the house when she came upon chunks cf ice standing bewide a hole, about a yard in diameter, which had ben chopped :hrough to the water Young ice had frozen ov r, not yet half an inch thick. She kne'.t and , leaned forward with her hand3 on

the edge of the hole, peering down through tho now, giassy crystal into

the dark, deep water underneath.) She felt footstops on the floor of ice and, leaking al out, she saw that Asa after some del a had descended from the Rock. He came to her side and gazed into tho hole. "Water hole," ho said quietly. "Bagley chop it here yesterday to

I rill buckets. Bagley did not chop It

so big." "Yes. that's It: why? Why. Asa?" she cried, s;ddenly losing control of herself. "AVhy should any one want that hole bigger?". "Nobody would," Redbird asured positively, "for water." "No," she said. "No; no; nol'she meant, first, agreement with Asa; then revolt at. and denial of, the images In her own mind. The Indian and she now understood the fame events alike; Asa. indeed, had discovered more than she. "What kept you up there?" she asked him. He. said ho would show her; and together they ascended the eteps in the Rock. He led her to the part of the floor where the dogs had been sniffling. "Somebody washed right here, you see. Somebody did it Inst night, I think; somebody scrubbed. Rut no place else." "Somebody burned cloth in fireplace." Asa informed, going to the hearth and producing a hanüful of ashes which exhibited the woven texture of cloth; he produced also a charred bit of shaped wood which had been the back of a scrubbing brush. Asa offered it to her and she put out her hand to take it. and then she could not touch it. Blood had stained it before it had been burnt; Kincheloo had put it In the lire to burn away blood. Asa had let go of It, thinking that sho was taking it, and it dropped to tho floor befween them.. It was to make sure that such trifles as this were completely burnt, she thought, that Kinchee"- wished to come to the Rock early this morning. She could think the.fe things; but she could not fay them. Sho told him about tho mat of Mood in Lad's hair. Asa went out and examined the dog. "'Nothing there now," he reported
