Show by, five miles from Copenhagen, and SECRETARY OF AGRICULTURE demonstrated that wireless telephoning could be carried on over considerable distances without losing anything in clearness and distinctness. Having made this demonstration, Mr. Poulsen undertook to Improve his ap- paratus, and almost every day increased the length of the line over which he held conversations with his assistants. Finally, he had come to have so much confidence In his system that he undertook the risk of trying to speak over a distance of 250 English miles that being the distance from Lyngby to Weisensee, near Berlin. When Mr. Poulsen, at his station at Lyngby, clearly heard the voices of his assistants and understood distinctly all that they were saying to him from their station at Weisensee, he was overjoyed. There was a perfect exchange of conversation between the two sta- "I should think that you would he pretty lonesome here, said a summer tourist riding on horseback In the backwoods as he took the gourd of water an elderly native of the soil well. handed him from a , It hain't so lonesome as you might think, was the reply.

What a snap! This Is how the brotherhood figures the financial scheme of the Utopia will adjust itself: On an average one man, with the aid of modern machinery, will produce at least $10 of new wealth each day, or $3,000 each year. Thus 1,000 men will produce at least $3,000,000 worth s each year. Allowing that of this wealth is consumed by the workers and their families, there will still remain $1,000,000 to be added to the collective capital each year. Thus, in five years, our society will be a workingmans trust, capitalized at $3,000,000, thus giving each worker an Income of $2,000 a year for the remainder of his life," what life of peace and prosperity the workers selves "What an exasperating old cuss Hewllgus Is in the piatter of borrowing money!
