In no case should the grid wires come near a plate wire. If It la found necessary to cross grid and plate wires there should be at least an Inch between them and In no case should they run parallel.

CARTIER, In New York Herald-Tribun- The construction of seemingly diff-icult multi-tub- e radio receivers seems to have been the stumbling block of many amateur builders. For this rea-son the home constructor has been In-clined to build sets along simpler lines. Although a two-tub- e receiver does not seem capable of receiving signals like one of Its bigger brothers It Is sur-prising Just what results may he ob-tained with such a set If properly con-structed. The Air Service two-tub- e reflex re-ceiver employing the well known Hork-nes- s circuit seems to be one of rea-sonably simple design. The list of parts for the construction of this re-ceiver la as follows: ' Particular stress should be made on the point that the performance of the set depends largely on the wiring. Wires in the y circuit, especially the plate and grid wires, should not be run parallel. If these points are observed the builder ought not to have any difficulty Ca making the set operate well und.sr favorable conditions. 7 by h panel. 7 by h baseboard. Two standard sockets. Two transformers. One rheostat (six ohm). Battery switch. Crystal detector. Double circuit Jack. Single circuit Jack. Set of six binding posts. Two .00037 mfd. condensers. Two y transformers. Of the above-mentione- parts ' the two y transformers may be easily constructed by the handy radio builder, or may be bought In kit form ready to assemble. g Data. For the benefit of those who desire to construct their own radio-frequenc- y transformers the data will be given herein. The secondary of both of the coup-ling transformers Is the first to be wound on the jube form. The sec-ondary of the transformer coupled to the antenna circuit should have 60 turns of No. 24 wire, wound on a form, and over this should be wrapped a sheet of insulating cloth or waxed paper. This serves as an in-sulator between the primary and see- - ondury colls. The primary should con-sist of ten tums of the same size wire wound over the Insulation cloth and in the same direction as the secondary. It Is absolutely, necessary that both colls be wound In the suine direction If best results are to be bad. The primary of the second coupling transformer Is slightly different in size. This transformer is wound on the same diameter tube and assumes the same physical proportions as the trans-former Just described, the chief differ-ence being that the primary consists of 32 turn:) Instead of 10. In order to make It possible for the set to be mounted In us sinnll a space as possible the coupling coils may be mounted directly on the back of the condensers with the secondary wires connected to the two terminals. The primary wires should be left discon-nected until the set Is to be wired. Then they may be connected to the respective places in the circuit. The two transformers should be mounted nt riptbt angles to each other in order to minimize coupling between the two. The drilling of the panel and the wiring of the net Is no more dlmeult than the ordinary fiinple e receiver. The wiring diagram, as shown, will aid the constructor In the proper arrangement of the apparatus. Will Not Oscillate. A particular advantage of this re-ceiver Is that It will neither oscillate nor radiate an interfering wave on the air. One of the tubes employed in the receiver acts as a am-plifier and Is reflexed so as it acts as a radio and amplifier at the same time, or In other words, does double duty. The detecting is ac-complished by means of a simple crys- - tal detector. Such a slmyle receiver, although seemingly small In size, ought-t- be capable of receiving many stations, both local and distant with sufficient volume to operate a loud speaker. , Either loop or outdoor nntennn mny be used on such a reflex receiver, al-though the latter will give better re-sults on distant stations. Mounting the Apparatus. The two variable condensers are mounted on the extreme ends of the panel with the rheostat and crystal detector In the middle. This arrange-ment allows the operator to control the set with ease, all contrbls being within easy reach. , When wiring the amplifier best re-sults will he obtained by having the audio-frequenc-y transformers placed st right angles to each other. This does away with the possibility of howling. Particular care should be exercised In wirng the system.

I'd have chucked the whole thing and kicked Catilmlr next time I aaw him, only that I really did want to" "You wanted to marry Calypso V "Mont frightfully," said Tommy, who Is a Tery simple soul. "Considering your position," I said, "and your profession, and and my sister Emily, don't you think you ought to have hesltHted about mar rylng a girl like thatr "I suppose I ought." said Tommy. "But I didn't. A fellow doesn't, yon know, when he's I told yon that Culypso laid me out, absolutely a gone men, the very moment I aaw her." That U all very well; but I still think Tommy ought to have thought what he waa doing. If he married her, supposing her to be, as he thought, simply a German dancing girl, he would have had to take her home with him and she would have been the curate's wife In my sister Emily's parish. What aort of exam- - kept on trying. I told every one 1 met there'd been a mistake, that I wasn't the man they took me for; but they wouldn't believe me." "So at last you made op your mind to take the goods the gods provided, a princess and a throne T" "Well, of course, there was Calyp-so," said Tommy. "I didn't really think at first that I bad much chance of getting her, marrying her, I mean. Well, I told you how I waa feeling about her." "Tei. 1 understand that. But all the same what I'm trying to get at Is this: whst did you think waa happening? How did you explain It all to yourself? Did you try to think It out?" "I thought It out all that night" nald Tommy, "at least as long ss I stayed awake. I dure ear I was awake for as much ss an hour or an hour and a half after I got Into bed, and I was thinking hard all the time, partly about Calypso, of course. But" "Mostly about Calypso, I expect." "Well, you may say mostly." said Tommy. "Still, I did think about the others, Caslmlr and the king, and about the absurd way they were go-In- g on, Insisting that I was some one I wasn't and all that." , CHAPTER IX Continued 11 Jsnet Church, tired of standing by ?Mreelf snd very curious to know what was going on, edged slowly to-ward the table at which Tommy was sitting. The king, who has very sharp eyes, noticed her. "By the way." he said, "why did you bring your aunt with you? Cas-lmlr tells me thst she's your sunt I suppose she Is your sunt? I used to say ejusln myself sometimes, and occasionally sister not thst any one ever believed me but I never thought of aunt I suppose now that she isn't but she can't be, can't pns- -' slbly be. But still some men have queer fanciea. I suppose ahe Isn't Miss Temple, la she?" "No, she's not," said Tommy. "That's almost a pity," said the king. "I dont think Calypso would have objected to her. I don't think even the patriarch would have mind-ed. , However, If she Isn't" He hsd to drop his voice at the last words, for Janet hud come 'quite close to them. The king greeted her In the most friendly manner. "I'm Just giving your nephew a little advice." he said. "I was talk-ing about the flnunrlul position of Lystria. Low rate of exchange and 11 that, you know. But the worst pie was c alypso likely to set to mem-bers of the Girls' Friendly society? Whst would the members of the Mothers' union have thought about her? What would denr old Canon Pyke, simplest, gentlest, most Inno-cent of men, have thought of a 's wife who kicked her legs Into the air on the platform of his paro-chial hall at the annual entertainment of the Temperance society? And Emily herself? My Imagina-tion utterly failed when I tried to Imuglne Emily's reception of Calyp-so. She had not a very high opinion of Tommy before he went to Berlin. In her original Jetter to me about his disappearance she had snld that he was not altogether suited to be a clergyman. She would have been con- - firmed In that opinion when be came buck with Calypso for a wife. There was no real harm In the girl. She was as thoroughly respectable us Vio-la Temple waa But Edmund Troy-te- , who was a man of the world, shied at the Idea of his nephew marrying her. Emily, who la a lady not of thia world but of the next, would have been outraged and ecandullzed, if Canon Pyke's curate, a man who preached to her on Sundays, brought home Calypso ss a wife. How would Calypso have taught a class In Sun-day school? Erally would regard It as part of (he duty of a curate's jvlfe to teach a class In Sunday school. There sre things which Tommy certainly ought to have thought about; but did not. As he said, "a fellow doesn't" when he has fallen "And what conclusion did you come to? How did you explain It to your-self?" "It sounds rather " absurd," said Tommy, "and I dare say you'll think me a fool. But you know the way that fellow Caslmlr keeps on quot-ing Shakespeare?" "I have heard him do It and mar-veled." "Evidently he'd read a lot pf Shakespeare," said Tommy, "and ad-mired him and all that" "These peoples," I said, "all admire Shakespeare lm- - of It Is that the people simply won't pay their taxes. At least, they wouldn't In my time. Ever since I've been here I've been thinking things over and I see now that I went the wrong way about collect-ing taxes. All governments make the same mistake. They send 'round dis-agreeable men with large blue pa-- , pers and threaten people who don't . pay up. That's the wrong way to get money. As head waiter In the Mascotte I make more in a single month than I ever got out of Lystria In a year. I don't threaten any one don't ask any one for a tip. A good waiter can make a man feel like worm If be orders anything cheap-er than champagne, and without peaking a word can see to It that he gets a ten per cent tip at least on ' every bill that's paid. I take fifty per cent of what the waiters get That's revenue, collected without the slightest difficulty. What I'm ad-vising your nephew to do Is to try the same plan In Lystria. Fire all ' the exlsltlng tax collectors. They're an utterly worthless lot, and their methods are antiquated. Hire a staflf of waiters from some place like this. Employ them on a flfty-uft- y basis, and Just see what you get In. Now what do you think of that plan, Miss Temple?" "My name Isn't Teiaple," said Janet. "It's" "Of course not," said the king. "Norheys told me It wasn't." "It's Church. Miss Janet Church." She spoke stiffly. Her Impression was thut the king wng a very drunk head waiter. "Church," snld the king. "How very ecclesiastical I And Norhevs suddenly snd. violently In love. And, of course, there were other consid-erations. Calypso really was a prin-cess. Tommy did not know that, at the time. Perhaps no one In the par-ish would have known It at first; but In the end It would have leaked out. What would have happened? My sis-ter Is no more a snob than the rest of us; but, like all decent people, she has a respect for royalty. She might severely condemn the manners, cus-toms and morals of a Berlin cabaret dancer; but ahe Is not the womnn to do more than whisper nasty things about a princess. lies position would be really awkward. A curate's wife occupies a definite, quite humble place in a parish. But a princess In any well regulated church Is received at the door by the clergy in full ca-nonicals, has s gilt and crimson chair to sit on, Instead of being herded r to a pew like other people, and is often prayed for by name In the course of the service. What could he done about a princess who Is also the curate's wife? But these complicated problems - did not trouble Tommy. He was able to go to sleep after little more than un hour's wakefulness, rest quietly and awake next morning prepared to play out to the end what he sup-posed to be Cnslmlr's game. When he came down next morning he went to the head clerk in the re-ception ofllce and asked whether Count Caslmlr had called or Bent any message. Caslmlr had done neither. But the head clerk, who felt It his duty to watch ove,r his guests, told Tommy Hint he ouyht to go to the police office at once to show his pass-port and obtain permission to remain in Berlin. This, he said, was neces-sary In the case of all foreigners who wished to stay more than two days. The whole business, so he assured Tummy, was purely formal, tiresome, but nothing worse. Tommy had noth-ing to do except display his passport. He would immediately receive the necessary written permit. It was called Tommy wrote down the word to make sure of remembering It an Auswels. a (TO BBS CONTINUED.)

They know him a great deul better than we do." "That's what I'm getting at," said Tommy. "Casimlr admires Shake-speare tremendously, and I dare say the king does too. I don't profess myself to know all the plays off by heart. Still I've read them. At least, I've read most of thein. Do you re-member the beginning of one of the plays I didn't remember which It was at the time, but I've looked It up since, and it's "The Taming of the Shrew." At the beginning of it there's a kind of little ploy which hasn't anything to do with the shrew, or the taming or anything else." No more than Tommy am I a Shakespearean scholar. But I recol-lect that there was a kind of pro-logue to "The Taming of the Shrew." "It's about a sort of spoof," said Tommy, "which a lot of peortte played off on a rngef beggar cuflet) Chris-topher Sly, pretending to believe that says he's a curate. You ought to be able to handle the patrlurch between you." "I'm going to Lystria," said Jnnet, "to enlist the patriarch's sympathies in the cause of World Peace Through the Union of Christian Churches." The king looked at her for a mo-ment with a little puzzled frown on his forehead. Then he turned to Tommy. "I must say you're managing this uncommonly well," he said. ''If you can start the patriarch arguing about , religion, he'll forget It's an extraor-dinarily ingenious plan. I wish I'd thought of it in my time. But then I never had an aunt who could have done It. I wish I could be there, Miss Church. I'd like to hear you and the patriarch at It together. But I can't go. They'd never let me cross the frontier. Besides, I must hold on to my Job here. It's all I have to live on." f Janel turned away. Drunken bead waiters wiio babbled neither amused nor Interested her. She left the roem with great dignity. Half an hour later, after receiving a great deal more good advice. Tommy mauuged to get off and go back to his hotel. I CHAPTER X .i , I have had several talks with Tom-my about what happened In Berlin. It was easy, or fairly easy to get at the facts. It was very much more difficult to find out what Tommy thought about it aU. "But didn't the whole thing strike you as odd?" I asked him. "Of course it did," said Tommy. "Odd is hardly the word for It. It was simply mad." "Still, yon went on with It. I mean to say, you didn't try to clear things "I did nothing else except try to Clear things up," said Tommy. "I the poor man was a king or a great lord or something until they very nearly persuaded him that he was!" I remembered the scene when Tom-my described ltv A certain lord, re-turning from hunting with his at-tendants, all of them in merry mood, found a beggar in a bed In an Inn. And out of sheer gaiety of heart set to work t) persuade him that lie waa a wealthy nobleman. "My idea was," said Tommy, "that they were trying that trick on with me. I don't know how the game end-ed In Shakespeare. In fact I don't think It did end. But I thought I might Just as well go through with it and see what happened. There was Calypso, you see." "Yes." I said. "You've told me how you felt about her. Did you believe she was a princess?"

Thousands Have Kidney Trouble and Never Suspect It Applicants for Insurance Often Rejected Judging from reports from druggists who are constantly in direct touch with the publie, there is one preparation that has been very successful in overcoming these conditions. The mild and healing influence of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Roo- t is soon realized. It stands the highest for its remarkable record of success. An examining physician for one of the prominent Life Insurance Companies, in an interview of the subject, made the as-tonishing statement that one reason why so many applicants for insurance are re-jected a is because kidney trouble is so common to the American people, snd the large majority of those whose applica-tions are declined do not even suspect that they have the disease. Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Roo- t is on sale at all drug stores in bottles of two siies, medium and large. However, if you wish first to test this great preparation send ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y., for a sample bottle. When writing be sure and mention this paper.

In another generation English mnj be a second language for the Jnpanese, even as the Dutch toduy are competent linguists, because the world cannot be bothered to learn Dutch. English, unless a Japanese hns been educated abroad, becomes rather In Japanese mouths, for ac-cording to Japunere custom, every con-sonant must be followed by a vowel, nnd there Is no "I" or "v" or "th." Thus "beer" becomes "bieru"; "glass," "purssu," nnd "hotel," "hoteru."
