SUCCESS OF WIRE- LESS "LIGHTHOUSE."
GOOD REPORTS FROM SHIPPING,
The Air Ministry rotating wireless beacon at Oxford Ness, Suffolk, which is being worked experimentally by the Air Ministry in conjunction with the Board of Trade, has proved so successful in enabling shipping to find its true bearings out of sight of land, that it is to be work ed continuously throughout the hours for two months.
Outwardly the beacon resembles a windmill without the sails and it is situated within a short distance of the Oxford Lighthouse, but inside it is really a hollow tower shelter ing a large frame aerial which
makes one complete révolution every minute and is electrically con- trolled to maintain absolute ac curacy of time in rotation and auto- matically to send out certain signals at known points of the compass. It is in effect, an aerial-light house," from which a wireless in stead of a light beam is sent out such a way that during each revolu tion of the beacon the signals re- evived by the observer rise and fall in intensity passing through a maximum and minimum twice in cach minute. The positions minimum intensity are very sharp and can be very accurately obaar- ved, so that they are used for navigation purposes, and all the mariner, or the aircraft pilot, needs a wireless receiving set and a stop-watch.

Reports From Ships.
of
· Some most interesting reports
have been received from ships, mostly coastwise steamers using the East Const, but a trawler cap- tain off the west const of Ireland has also reported picking up the beacon sufficiently well to establish his position. A few selections from
the reports to date are appended:
Off Benchy Head. although 100 miles from the beacon it came in within deg. from the correct,re
ault.
Signals very clear and distinct. Bearings within Ideg. at 78 and 124 miles.
I should like to express my carnest appreciation of the case and simplicity and apparent ac- curacy of this installation.

CABBAGE CAN BE FOOD FOR KINGS.
The homely cabbage is a much abused vegetable, to serve it in a sodden boiled condition is the surest sign of careless catering.
If cooked right cabbage can be. a, food for kings. Care should be taken never to over-boil the veget- able, to drain carefully, and to serve immediately.
Spanish Way.
cutting the cabbage into quarters In Spain they have a way of
and boiling until tender with two red peppers. Then it is placed, in a baking dish with six large onions, previously boiled, salt and pepper added, little liquid in which the cabbage was cooked pour- ed over it, end the whole dotted with picces of butter.
After dusting the vegetables with half a teaspoonful of chili powder the dish is covered and placed in a hot oven for half an hour, then served very hot.
which has been salted with about a dessertspoonful of salt to two' quarts of water.
:
After cooking the shreds rapidly For nat more than ten minutes, she drains through a colander and returns the cabbage shreds to the pan to keep hot, while she adds a tablespoonful of butter, three tablespoonfuls of rich cream, and a teaspoonful or vinegar.
delectable Then she turns the concoction into a hot serving dish. A variation is to beat up two eggs with the three tablespoonfuls of cream, and mix this with the cooked cabbage. It should be put into a buttered baking dish, and slipped into the oven to get nice. ly browned.
In the Balkans, a cabbage pud- ding is made which is very" ap: petising. For this, drain a bead of cabbage which has been shredd- ed before cooking. Season, and add four tablespoonfuls of `bacon fat, one cup milk, three beaten eggs, and two tablespoonfuls or made mustard.
