COAST LINE DEMANDS EFFICIENT SERVICE. According to Government estimate there are about 300,000 radio receivâ€" ers in Canada, and conservatively it is figured there are a million constant listeners. Approximately _ 150,000 radio receivers were licensed during the year 1926, states the Radio Branch Dept. of Marine and Fisherâ€" les, 15,000 more than the year before, this number representing about half of those in use. Figures of licenses issued would suggest that Ontario is the greatest devotee by a wide lead, followed by Quebec, then by the four Western provinces, and lastly by the Maritimes. This refers to all staâ€" tions though the majority are private receiving stations operated by indiâ€" viduals. In many of the phases of its econâ€" omic life, Canada would appear to be a land specially created as the sphere of the radio, where its influence is greatest, its possibility of benefit widest. Though wireless has been in existence in Canada for some time before the advent of radio was hailed enthusiastically, it was generally adopted throughout the land, and rapid!y came to permeate every phase of its life. It is playing its part in trade, shipping, forestry, and the fishâ€" eries, has linked civilization with the yet untamed places of the Dominion and been a further factor in revolnâ€" tionizing the existence of the pioneer agriculturist. LICENSED STATIONS. Licensed stations in the Dominion are divided as follows:â€"Coast staâ€" tions 30; Direction Finding stations 8: Beacon stations 6; Radiophone staâ€" tions 4; Government ship stations 28; Caommercial shin stations 252: Limitâ€" Commercial ship stations 252; Limitâ€" ed Coast stations 3; Public Commeâ€"â€" cial stations 9; Private Commercial stations 59; Private Commercial Broadcasting stations 55; Amateur Broadcasting stations 16; Radioâ€"teleâ€" graph training schools 9; Experiâ€" mental stations 37; Amateur Experiâ€" mental stations 37; and Private Reâ€" ceiving stations 134,486. Ask Your Grocer For It Canada‘s extensive coast line deâ€" mands an efficient radio service; 48 Coast stations have been established on shore to communicate with ships at sea. The coast station system consists of two chains, one extending from Vancouver to Prince Rupert on the Pacifc, and the other from Port Arthur to the Atlantic Ocean in the east. The primary aim,.of the coast station organization is to provide faâ€" cilities whereby any ship within 500 miles of the Canadian coast can esâ€" tablish instant touch with shore. Constant watch, twentyâ€"four hours a day, is maintained at practically a‘ll the stations, these handling about 7,â€" 000,000 words a year. 7_'l‘hew stations give general aid to navigation, communicate with ships in distress, and in addition certain of Superiop to any other green them on both coasts and the great lakes broadcast information to naviâ€" gators covering weather forecasts, position and nature of dangers to navigation, etec. Urgent information, such as hurricane warnings, is broadâ€" cast immediately on receipt. .

Thirtyâ€" three of these stations handle comâ€" mercial traffic to and from ships. OF AID TO FISHING, FORESTRY, MINING. The coast system is naturally of inâ€" valuable aid to fishermen and the fishing industry in general. More than one province uses the radio as ‘ ADVANTAGES TO FARM LIFE. ; _ Probably the most widespread revoâ€" lution the radio has wrought in Canâ€" Eada. however, has been in the farm home. The figures of radio licenses issued in Western Canada are strikâ€" ins, and this factor coming on top of the genoral construction of fine provinciel roads and the universal use of the automobile has altogether changed the existence of the agriculâ€" turist of this area from what it was before the war. The only drawback | from which the Western farmer !mlght be said to kave suffered in the ‘ past, if indeed it can go be termed, was his remoteness from the nopuâ€" _lous centres. Toâ€"day he is in ceaseâ€" [less touch with them, and their pleaâ€" | sures and facilities are at his comâ€" ‘mand. Modern pioneering has been robbed of all its terrors. part of its precaution against forest fires, keeping rangers in constant touch with each other and with headâ€" quarters. Planes on fire patrol have been equipped with radio, mbnnx‘ them to communicate information at any time to their bases. Several of the larger pulp and paper companies have similar communication between different parts of their limits and beâ€" tween the limits and headquarters. Prospectors and mining men in the newly opened northern fields are in ready communication with the outside world throuch the medium of radio. The mounted police posts and isolated trading post of the Subâ€"Arctic reâ€" gions are in daily touch with the larger Canadian centres, not only inâ€" creasing their efficiency but considerâ€" ably reducing the rigors of their exâ€" istences. In peculiarly effective manâ€" ner radio hss come to play a large part in all phases of Canadian fronâ€" tier life. Canada has been progressive in ndvance of other countries in its inâ€" stitution of a section of the Radio Branch to combat preventable interâ€" ference. Govéernment depots for this purpose have been established at Ottawa, Toronto, Winnipeg, Vanâ€" couver, Montreal and Halifax, and these equipped with automobiles fitâ€" ted with special instruments and apâ€" paratus. When radio fans are trouâ€" bled by interference they simply get in touch with the nearest Governâ€" ment radio inspector‘s office, and register their complaint, when an exâ€" pert starts in a car to locate the source of the interference, and, if possible, to correct it. This departâ€" ment‘s work has met with very great success. The sweetly scented talcum powder with which women all over the conâ€" tinent powder their noses and dust their babies is another Canadian raw material about which little is heard and concerning which little is known by the general public. Tale in its native condition is really a soft rock and is a‘so known as steatite or soapâ€" | stone. To chemists it is known as magnesium silicate. It is easily cut,‘ silvery white in color, has a greasy| feel and when powdsred it is known as French chalk. It is heatâ€"resisting! and nonâ€"conductive. It is used prinâ€" cipally for toilet purposes, as a |lubriâ€" cant, as a filler for paper and for tailor‘s chalk. It also enters into the manufacture of rubber goods and texâ€" tiles and cut in blocks is used in furâ€" ;nace linings. Canada possesses the most important highâ€"grade tale deâ€" posits in the world. The very highest qualities are necessary in the manuâ€" facture of talcum powder, and Eastâ€" | ern Ontario is the chief source of supply of the indispensible toilet ‘article for the North American conâ€" tinent. \ _ Mussel Mud as Fertilizer. â€"| | _ The fertility of the soil of Prlnoel} | Edward Island, although nnturally. high, is further increased by the conâ€"| {stant application of mussel mud colâ€" | \lected along the shores and spread |over the fields. This rich fortilizer! Iis composed of decayed shells and estuarine silt and contains a largel percentage of organic matter. The ‘ content of lime in this fertilizer| | forms a valuable ingredient in the soil. Further fertility is assured by‘ the use of seaweed and fish. Thh‘ care of the ground and systematic replenishing results in abundant crops and rich green verdure. * Going fishingâ€"take Minard‘s Liniment. your peer for courage. Canada Talc Deposits. tea sold. In apirecintlon of his daring in rescuing her and her companions from hxi!!zwaymen, me. de Sevenie had invited the man who Brderrod to be known as Andre Duchemin to dine in her chateav. Do ar Duchemin accepts, despite his deâ€" sire to avoid all social activities durâ€" ing his leave of absence from the English Secret Service. He was anxâ€" ious to meet again Eve de Montalais, the American widow who had been one of those saved b)r Duch:mdn from the highâ€" amazrmcmele attaa wngmon’a attack. n route to the chateau, Duchemin pondered over the arrival in town of a stran~s motoring party of four men and a woman. He was able to learn only two names: is â€" Phinuit, apparently a secretary, and the chauffeur, Jules. Duchemin straightened ‘up sharply, and stood quite still, listening. No sound . . . His vision spent itself fruitlessly against the blackness, which the closed window draperies rendered absolute but for those dull, sardonic eyes of dying embers. In spite of himself he knew a moâ€" ment when flesh crawled and the hair seemed to stir upon the scalp; for Duchemin knew he was not alone; there was something else in the room with him, something nameless, stealâ€" thy, silent, sinister. A hand extended about a foot enâ€" countered the back of an upholstered chair, which he identified by touch. Assuming the chair to be occupying its usual position, he need only conâ€" tinue in a line parallel with the line of its back to find the entranceâ€"hall in about six paces. Within three he stopped dead, as if paralyzed by sudden instinctive perception of that other presence close by. Whether he had drawn near to it inch by inch, or whether it, seeing him about to make good his escape, had crept up on him, he could not say. He only knew that it was there, within arm‘sâ€"length, waiting, tense, prepared, and somehow deadly in its animosity. Digging the nails deep into the palms of his hands, until the pain relieved his nervous tension, he waltâ€"| ed once more, one minute, two, three. | But nothing . .. I Then very slowly he lifted an arma and swept it before him right and left. At one point of the arc, a trifle} to his left, his fiingerâ€"tips brushed| something. He thought he detected a‘ stir in the darkness, a stifled sound, stepped forward quickly, clawing the air, and caught between his fingers a wisp of some material, like silk,{ sheer and glace, a portion of some garment. ‘ Simultaneously he heard a smothâ€" ered cry, of anger or alarm, and the night seemed to ‘split and be rent into fragments by a thousand shootâ€" ing needles of colored flame. Smitten brutally on the point of the jaw, his head jerked back, he reeled and fell against a chair, which went to the floor with a muffled crash. \ _ Her profound reverie disturbed b \ his approach, she rose quickly, atK | vancing to meet Duchemin with both hands offered in sympathy. \ _‘"My dear friend! You are sufferâ€" A Woman‘s Faith. Duchemin woke up in his bed, glare of sunlight in his eyes. He groaned aloud and with both hands clutched temples that promised to split with pain that crashed be: tween them, stroke upon stroke, like bows of a mighty hammer. Also, his jaw was stiff, and deâ€" veloped a protesting ache whenever he opened his mouth. i He got up hastily and spent sevâ€" eral thrilling minutes under an icy shower and emerged feeling more on terms with himself and the world. The valetâ€"deâ€"chamber brought with his tray the announcement that Madame de Montalais presented her compliments and would be glad to see monsieur at his convenionce in theâ€" grand salon. So Duchemin made short work of his dressing, his cofâ€" fee and roll, and hurried down to the drawing room. ingâ€" He met this with a smiling denial. "Not now; at first, ves; but since my bath and coffee, I‘m as right as a trivet. But madame is not dreéfsed for her journey!" "No, monsieur. I have postponed "No, monsieur. I have postponed itâ€""a slight pause prefacd one more wordâ€""indefinitely." > At this confirmation of the fears which had been haunting him, Duâ€" chemin nodded slightly. "Yes," she said thoughtfully, when Duchemin had explained his presâ€" ence in the drawing room: "I, too found it not easy to sleep. But I heard nothing till that chair crashed." "You came down hereâ€"alonaâ€"*" "But naturally, monsieur." "I don‘t believe," said Duchemin gincerely, "the world holds a woman Go oN wWITH THE STORY. BEGIN HERE TOâ€"DAY. 9n CHAPTER X.

The necessity for my contemplated journey no longer exists." There were expressions of surprise to which she put an end /with the words, accompanied by a charming smile: "Frankly, messieurs, I have simply changed my mind."* There was nothing more to be said. Openly more than a little mystified, the men withdrew.
