"Listening In" on Radio WU! Be Eliminated. New York, June 16.-"One party" radio telephone lines are a prospect for the immediate future. William Marconi, perfector of the ?wireless telephone and telegraph, ar rived here today on his yacht, with a message when fulfilled will mark the greatest advance yet in radio tele phony. It will put radio on such a sound commercial basis that it is forecast, it will rival the telephone an common use. Mr. Marconi announced that he had perfected a system by which radio messages can be projected in any desired direction. At present, radio messages are be ing broadcast only, scattered in all directions. An idea of the accuracy of Mr. Marconi's new device is given in the inventors' statement that he .has sent messages 100 miles straight ahead which were not heard, except at the receiver aimed at. In time, Mr. Marconi said, apparat us will be perfected which will proj ect radio messages with the accuracy that marks the transmission of the telephone or telegraph messages over wires. Mr. Marconi continued: "I am amazed at the varied pro grams that are being sent out by your "broadcasting stations here. I enjoy ed the concerts so much while on the way to this city from Bermuda. America is undoubtedly far ahead of Eui ope in radio development. "Contrary to the general impres sion, I have never tried to reach Mars by radio. I have really given the possibility of such a thing very little thought. However, I am certain that ' I have had a message from some oth er world, possibly Mars, Venus or the Sun, although I admit I may be fooling nryself concerning the mes sages which might have been caused by electrical disturbances. This is Mr. Marconi't 85th visit to America. The chief purpose of his present visit is to exchange technical and scientific information with American experts. Service on the Juries. Jury service is one of the first du ties of citizenship. It is one of the last duties the average citizen is willing to perform. Men of character and ability who are possessed of the qualifications necessary to the ren dering of fair and intelligent ver dicts will go to great length in order to evade service on a jury. At the same time they will criticize the ver dicts of those who are willing to serve. The average man feels that he can not afford to neglect his business interests in order to spend two or three days in a week in a jury box at small pay. The financial sacrifice such service entails in a barrier between " -him and duty to his community. He forsakes duty in his efforts to evade the sacrifice. In too many cases this attitude fills the juries with men who are not fitted morally or intellectual ly to perform their duties without fear or favor. The result is spread broadcast over the country in the form of criminality that appears to be uncheckable and constantly on the increase. The law of nature requires that we reap as we sow, and even now the sum of the reaper is deafening in our ears.-Sandersville Progress. Dilligent detectives, dilligent ar resting officers, diligent civil service commissioners, diligent piiosecutir.g attorneys, diligent judges on the bench will not be wholly effective un less the sturdiest and ablest men go into the jury boxes. Many of us are given to trying to evade this jury service. It is a service in addition to our routine and puts things awry in the workshop and in the counting room. Yet it is a service that is a duty to the society we have set up-a link in the manner of gov ernment we have adopted-and just in so far as we weaken it, just in that far we hurt the system we have build ed under which to live and let live. No president, forming the organi zation in his institution, calculates that, at times, during the year he must permit his clerks (each of them, probably) to be away from desks a week, to do jury duty in the court room. When the subpoena comes de manding the service of that clerk, or this one, instantly there suggests the determination to "get uhe judge to let you off." His honor is human. He wants to be obliging. He wants to em barrass no man's business. But what has occurred as bearing on one pres ident's force of employees, applies to all other business organizations. There are few juries drawn no mem bers of which make appeal to be ex-' cused for business reasons. There will be better administra tion of the "law-to the good of all law-abiding people-wh^n thtere is full and patriotic response to the summons to jury duty.-Augusta Chronicle. Buy a FORD and bank tne difference.-Adv. ?bels Should Tell Air the Truth. The United States Supreme Court recently handed down a decision to the effect that labels used on goods sold interstate must tell the truth. The case before the court was that of a manufacturer of hosiery who label ed hsi goods as "Natural Wool" or "Australian Wool," when as a matter of fact the hosiery was made from a mixture of wool and cotton. The Pure Foods and Drug act re quires that labels on goods sold in terstate must recite the contents of the articles and therefore if one is buying a can of fruit, he is reason ably sure that if the label reads, "Pure Strawberry Jam," that he is getting what he asked for. Not so with the man who buys a suit of clothes. \ The label may read "Pure Wool" and tell the truth, but it does not tell the whole truth. If the label read "'Pure wool made from shod dy," unless it was actually made from virgin wool, the buyer would not be deceived. As it is the buyer of a suit of clothes may be buying shoddy, believing that he is paying for a su perior article. Notwithstanding this opportunity for deception, Congress hesitates to pass the "Truth in Fabrics" bili. The influence of the manufacturers of shoddy and shoddy cloth seems to have more weight than the de mands of the wool growers and the wearers of- woolen clothes. It would be interesting to know in just what form this influence is presented to our new congressmen.-Farm and Ranch. No Such Thing as "Hollow Horn." Many persons believe cattle have "hollow horn" at times. "This belief is a mistake," says Dr. A. L. Sealy, professor of veterinary science, Uni versity of Florida. "The horn is at tached to a bony core, which is a prolongation of the frontal bone. Some of the bones of the head have air spaces of sinuses, one purpose of which is to give bulk and shape to the bones without adding to their weight. The frontal bone has such an air space, and it extends out into the bony core over which the horns are attached. So hollow horn is not a dis ease, for the horns are naturally hol low." Continuing, Dr. Sealy says: "Cat tle are apt to have digestive disorders, and what is often thought to be hol low horn is no more nor less than in digestion, a result of eating mouldy or too much feed, a sudden change of feed, overloading the paunch, or drinking stagnant water. "The practice of boring a hole into the horn and pouring in such ingre dients as turpentine, vinegar, black pepper, liniments, common salt or other such mixtures, is not only use less and cruel, but actually danger ous. Often these things cause an in flamation of the membrane lining the air space, or produce abcesses within this cavity. "When your cow appears dejected, lacks appetite, shows weakness, hair loses its lustre, skin becomes tight and unpliable, horns feel hot (indi cating fever) or cold (indicting de ranged circulation), call a graduate veterinarian, if one is available. "If a veterinarian is not to be had, forget about hollow horn and give the cow one pound of epsom salts and from two to four tablespoonfuls of aromatic spirits of ammonia in quart of water as a drench. Feed only nourishing feed such as ground oats, cornmeal, middlings and bran. Allow the animal to eat as much green feed as possible. A good tonic powder, such as, powdered nux v?mica, 2 ounces, powdered gentian, 2 ounces; powdered ginger, 2 ounces; sodium bicarbonate, 2 ounces, may be given for a week or more after a digestive disorder. One tablespoonful of this mixture should be given three times daily in feed or in a pint of water as a drench."-Farm and Ranch.

Washington, June 18.-Since Vir ginia refused to permit the senate to put the statue of George Washing ton in the Hall of Fame unless it would also accept the statue of Rob ert Lee, the senate now accepts the statue of any individual, up to two, which the state might designate. Southern states as a rule have not taken advantage of the opportunity. North Carolina has Senator Vance and South Carolina John C. Calhoun. Florida has Dr. Corrie who invented the refrigerator (and incidentally he was born in South Carolina) and Gen. Kirby Smith, Confederate sol dier. Texas has Austin, the Indian fighter. Tennessee has neglected both Andrew Jackson and David Crockett. Some time, Mississippi will send the statue of Jefferson Davis. Georgia, if its constitution will ever permit, will send the statues of Alexander Stephens, vice president of the Con federacy, and Dr. Crawford Jones, who first applied ether as an anaes thetic in operation. Something is the matter with the- constitution of Geor gia. That which hinders it in appro priating for its sons is also responsi ble, it is said, for the fact that the jeweler who engraved and furnished the silver service for the battleship Georgia has never been remunerated. There is delight in Washington that Alabama has undertaken a movement to put a statue to Gen. William C. Gorgas in statuary hall. He was born in Mobile and educated in Tuscaloosa, where his father, who had served as chief ordnance officer of the Confederate army, was presi dent of the University of Alabama. General Gorgas was internationally famous as a sanitation expert. His work made the Panama canal zone habitable. Alabama is now represented by J. lr. M. Curry, who was born in Vir ginia, and was more closely identified with Tennessee. The legislature of Alabama suffered relatives of Curry to put his statue in the capitol with the understanding that they would defray all expenses. To that extent Alabama sold its birthright. It is the hope of Alabamans in Washington that Alabama will re move the Curry statue and put in its place one in honor of Admiral Semmes, who commanded the famous Alabama during the Confederate war, and was the South's greatest naval hero; or William Rufus King, once vice president of the United States; or Senator John Tyler Mor gan, the real father of the Panama^ canal legislation. There was a sensation, of course, when Virginia sent the Lee statue to Washington. The senate bickered. ( But Virginia said taut Lee must be ] accepted or Washington would be withdrawn. A Hall of Fame without 1 Washington would be a joke, the sen ate recognized, and, without formal ( action, permitted the statue to be ] placed. While the senate struggled over the Lee controversy, echoes 1 reached the house. Carter Glass, then a representative, declared in a speech ? that Virginia did not care very much i as the government had already erect ed in Washington a statue to Le'e^ . most descriptive of his military genius. One of the "red shirt" wavers was '? amazed. He made inquiries of the : Virginia member. ? "It is nothing more or less than the pension office," returned Glass without the semblance of a smile.

His head with radiant glories crowned, His lips with grace o'erflow. No mortal can with Him compare, ? Among the sons of men, Fairer is He than all the fair That fill the heavenly train. He saw me plunged in deep dis tress, And flew to my relief, For me He bore the shameful cross And carried all my grief. Ta Him I owe my life and breath, And all the joys I have; He makes me'triumph over death And saves me from the grave. Hymn 4 There's a wideness in God's mercy, Like the wideness of the sea; Theres' a kindness in His justice; Which is more than liberty. There's a welcome for the sinner, And more graces for the good; There is mercy with the Saviour; There is healing in His blood. , If our love were but more simple, We should take Him at His word; And our lives would be all sunshine In the sweetness of our Lord. Hymn 22 Awake, my soul, stretch every nerve, And press with vigor on; A heavenly race demands thy zeal, And an immortal crown. A cloud of witnesses around, Hold Thee in full survey; Forget the steps already trod, And onward urge thy way. 'Tis God's all animating voice, That calls thee from on high; 'Tis His own hand presents the prize, To thine aspiring eye. Blest Saviour, introduced by Thee, Have I my race begun; And, crowned with vict'ry, at Thy feet, I'll lay my honors down. Vesper Verse, Hymn 60 Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer, That calls me from a world of care And bids me at my Father's throne Make all my wants and wishes known! In seasons of distress and grief, My soul has often found relief, And oft escaped the tempter's snare, By thy return, sweet hour of prayer! Hymn 50 Jesus calls us; o'er the tumult Of our life's v/ild, reckless sea, Day by day, His sweet voice sound eth, 3aying, "Christian, follow me." Jesus, calls us from the worship Of the vain world's golden store, From eaeh idol that would keep us, Saying, "Christian, love me more." Tesus calls us; by Thy mercies Saviour, may we hear Thy call, Give our hearts to Thine obedi ence, Serve and love Thee best of all. Hymn 55 [ can hear my Saviour calling, [ can hear my Saviour calling, [ can hear my Saviour calling, "Take thy cross and follow, follow me." Chorus Where He leads me I will follow, Where He leads me I will follow, Where He leads me I will follow, I'll go with Him, with Him all the way. I'll go with Him thro' the garden, I'll go with Him thro' the garden, I'll go with Him thro' the garden, I'll go with Him, wi+h Him all the way. He will give me grs He will give me gr; He will give me And go with me, v way. .ad glory, - glory, glory, ll the Hymn 72 I need Thee every hour, Most gracious Lord, No tender voice like Thine Can peace afford.

LE9 S. C. i He Didn't Die in Vain. A Kiona, Washington, papers tells us that a rancher and hunter caught a coyote in a steel trap. He thought he would have some fun with him, the unfortunate victim not having suf fered enough from the trap to de-' serve speedy death. The paper graph ically recounts what followed: He telephoned several neighbors to be on hand to witness the destruc tion. Moore tied a stick of dynamite to the animals' tail, lighted the fuse and turned him loose. Mr. Moore and his friends were ^hocked to see the creature quickly disappear underneath the hen house. No- amount of yelling and revolver firing would dislodge it. About three seconds elapsed when there was a great puff of dust and a roar, while the air was filled with feathers, pieces of fur, boards, straw, and eggs from an 800 size incubator which was in the hen house. When the atmosphere had cleared there was no trace of the hen house and its valued contents. Moore looked behind him to see his ueighbors beat ing a hasty retreat.-Our Dumb Ani mals. ?'
