Mr. and Mrs. Christian of Oak Park Washington.--The "telephone Utopia," or a time when all telephones in all nations can be connected, Is rapidly nearlng la the opinion of engineers, who, recantly celebrated the fiftyseventh anniversary of use of the speaking device In the United States. Already telephone users in the United States can converse with users in 40 other countries located on the six other continents. These connections comprise a network of 32,750,060 telephones, or more than 92 per cent of all such Instruments in the world. It will be only a short time until virtually all pf the remaining connections will be possible in the opinion of eminent communications experts. Four Countries Left. There remain only four countries having more than 100,000 telephones with which the United States does not have connections. These are China, Japan, Russia, and South Africa. The link with the last named Is likely to be completed within the current' year and that with Japan should require only a relatively few months more, according to Stanley Shoup of the communication division of .tlfe Commerce department, All this development has come since March 10, 1876, when Alexander Graham Bell, then a youthful scientist, and a comphnlon conversed for the first time In this country through electrically wired apparatus in Boston. Today four radio-telephone circuits connect the United States with Europe, and it' Is expected that a transatlantic telephone cable will be completed during this year. Development. Most of the international'- development of telephony has come since 1922. At that time there were only two countries connected with the United States. They were Cuba and Canada. The United States Is now connected*with virtually every country In Europe, with Argentina, Chile, Uru» guay, Mexico, and Cuba In Latin America ; with Java, Sumatra, and Indo- Chlna in Asia; with Ceuta In Spanish Morocco, Africa; with New Zealand and Australia. During the last year communication* were made with Hawaii, thus thrusting vocal communications nearly 2,000 miles out into the Pacific on the way to the final goal of China and Japan. The telephone Industry now ranks as one of the leading ones la the United States in points of assets. Its investments amounted to $5,2!j0,000,000 in 1930 and officials of the Department of Commerce estimate that it' spends $500,000,008 a year ia Improvements alone.

Prices subject to change Clean Soft Water Used HOW: CHANGE OF CLIMATE CAN BE PROCURED IN THE HOME.--» It will not be necessary to leave home If you want a "change of climate.** That Is, It will not be necessary after a while, for some elaborate experiments are being conducted at a Cincinnati hospital by Dr. C. A. Mills to determine ihe effect of atmospheric conditions to human health and comfort. A laboratory has been fitted out where certain climate conditions can be reproduced and the effects upon animal life observed. Rabbits and rats are the subjects C»f the present experiments and humans will follow. Doctor Mills says that in the future controlled Indoor atmospheres wjjjfc^tee used In the treatment of disease. We shall have cold rooms for fever patients and hot, moist chambers for use when blood pressure gets too high. "It seems sure^" he says, "that climatic change of any type a physician may require for his patient can soon be prescribed and carried out within the hospital or in the patient's home. A climatic cure no jonger heeds to mean that a patient is banished from his home or sent sway from the care of his own physician." P VOLO ProVea Backs of Books May Be Repaired Books are withdrawn from a shelf by pulling on the top edge of the back binding. Heavy volumes soon become damaged by this handling, points out the May issue of Practical Mechanics Magazine. Not infrequently the whole back loosens. It is a simple matter to apply glue to the broken back, but difficult to find or improve a clamp In which the book may be held tightly until the glue sets, "Apply the glue only to the sides of the broken back," the article direct, "and never down the center, or the book will break again when It is opened. Set the book carefully In place and then wrap the whole book tightly with a stout cord, its turn* wound close together. Leave the cord on for at least 24 hours." How Flowers Are Grouped The beautiful blossom of the Mter and the more simple bloom of the daisy, while they are widely different in appearance, belong to the same general family, a family which composes, perhaps, as much as one-seventh of all the vegetation in this country and constitute by far the largest single family group. These flowers, the Compositae, include the sunflower, the chrysanthemum, the goltlenrod, thistle, dandelion, sagebrush, ragweed, resinweed and other sueh -common plants. A single bloom, ©n close examination, is found to be not one bloom, but many closely joined into a common head with the cuter flowers putting out the showier petals which give the iyusi^,,^ A single flower. How Zither 1» Plijftl A zither Is a musical instrument having from 30 to 40 strings over a Shallow sounding box, set horizontally before the performer. A fretted finger board at one side lies under some of the strings, on which the melody is played by a plectrum on the right thumb, Ihese strings being stopped by the left hand. The remaining strings are timed In fourths and plucked by the fingers ©r th# right hand. How Anthracite Burns Burning with great intensity, the radiant heat of anthracite Is very great. At the time the coal Is In a state of incandescence the heat of the 'flame generated is marked by its Intensity. This coal neither softens nor swells in ftirning. It Is burnt with a Short flame of yellowish tinge that changes to a faint blue and Is of transparent appearance, due to the particles of solid carbon in the flame. How Glass Wool Is Made Glass wool, also known as glass silk and spun glass, Is used as an insulating material In ships, locomotives and engine rooms. The glass Is prepared iy being melted in a furnace and passed through holes from which it Is spun in fine silky threads of about one-thousandth of an Inch In diameter. The strands cling together, which gives it the appearance of a veil. 'How We Get "Rule of Thumb" Originally rule of thumb meant measuring with the thumb. In the cloth trade, as well as in carpentry, a thumb or . thumb's breadth was taken to equal one inch. By extension, "rule of thumb" Is used figuratively for any simple and roughly practical method of measurement based on practice and experience rather than scientific knowledge. How to Tell Wool Cloth Wool dissolves when boiled for 15 minutes in a solution containing one "tablespoon of lye to a pint of water. Larger amounts of alkaline washing powder may be used instead of lye. This la an excellent way to detect fabrics made of both wool and cotton, as the cotton will not . disappear under such treatment How Teak wood Is Cured Since green teakwood would net float as a rift, and If let lie on the ground would season unevenly, it is cured standing. It is girdled and a broad strip of bark and sap, wood" taken off annually. Two or three years is required for curing to a.point where it win float. lt is handled by elephants.

These are collected and sent 'to a mission or to a children's hospital for purposes of amusement, or a rummage sale Is sometimes held with the articles to provide funds for dubs, church* or charity.
