Acetylene, exploded by au electric

New Transformer.
The use of batteries and their at
tendant inconveniences In the opera
tion of annunciator and bell-ringing
systems is dispensed by the invention
of a new transformer, by which the
necessary current is secured from the
ordinary lighting circuits. As the
transformer has no moving parts,
once fixed it will thereafter require
no attention. It is adapted to oper
ate on circuits running from 100 to
130 volts, and is provided with taps
giving 6, 12 and 18 volts, so as to
meet the requirements of various
styles and sizes of bells and buzzers.
Automatic Hoisting Record.
An automatic electric hoisting rec
ord, including signals as well as trips
is kept by a new instrument used in
a mine of South Africa. As the cage
or skip moves up or down, a small
-disk carrying a needle travels along a
strip of paper ruled into time spaces,
and thus marks down the time of the
trip. Each ring of the signal bell per
forates the paper, the number of per

ELECTRIC LAMP FOR MINERS
Recent Invention Supersedes Old
Fashioned Light Operated by
Means of Button. -
The old-fashioned oil lamp still be
ing used by miners seems soon to be
superseded by the electrical lamp, a
Recent design being shown in the il
lustration. It can readily be imagined
what the general use of the electrical
lamp would mean to the miner the
elimination of the horrible accidents
of daily occurrence due to explosions
from contact of the oil lamp with in-

risible gases. That electrical lamp
shown here is operated in conjunction
with a specially designed cap, in
which is stored an electric battery.
Light is furnished by a small incan
descent lamp surrounded by a reflec
tor on the fore part of the : cap. The
light is operated by a push button se
cured to the under surface of the
vizor, where it is constantly in con
venient reach of the wearer. The cap
and attached lamp are light in weight
and in no way interfere with free
movement of the arms. The battery
is readily recharged at little expense.
In fact, the cost of maintenance is
only slightly in excess of the lamp,
the greater cost being the initial ex
penditure for the apparatus.
BUTTERS-IN HURT WIRELESS
Daily Interference by Thoughtless or
Malicious Amateurs Stations
May Be Licensed.
It may surprise some readers tc
learn that the serious business of
wireless telegraphy is daily Interfered
with by thoughtless or malicious ama
teurs. Every inventor of a new sys
tem is anxious to "tune" his appara
tus so that each receiver shall get
messages from its corresponding
transmitter, and only from that; but
the state of things, which may be
looked upon as the millennium of
wireless, has not yet arrived, conse
quently the regular stations are more
or less at the mercy of the casual ex
perimenter. An electrical magazine
reports that some joker near Boston
exact location unknown spends his
evenings in drowning out with a very
powerful apparatus every message to
or from a neighboring naval station,
When this facetious individual is spot
ted his amusement will, of course, be
Interfered with. It is said an effort
will be made this winter to get con
gress to pass a bill requiring all wire
less stations, public or private, to be
licensed. All public stations and many
private plants now have special call
signals. The Marcoul company uses
combinations of three letters of the
alphabet. The United States naVy
uses combinations of two letters and
monopolizes about half the possible
number of these. An effort to publish
a complete up-to-date official directory
of these wireless calls has failed, ow
ing to objections advanced by the
commercial companies. The only
available list is now that of the navy,
which is more than a year old.
ELECTRIC HONE FOR RAZORS
Very Clever Device Invented by Los
Angeles Barber Holds Blade
Steadily to Surface.
A very clever device that will be
appreciated by every man who has
tried to hone his own razor, Is the
electro-magnetic razor hone, invented
by a Los Angeles barber, says Popu
lar Electricity. The idea is simplicity
itself, as would, of necessity be the
case, for the inventor is no electrician.
Electro-Magnetic Razor Hone.
It consists of a coil of insulated cop
per wire (about four pounds), a core
of Norway iron and directly above the
latyer a shallow groove which receives
the stone; an ordinary hone.
The coil is connected with an elec
tric light fixture and uses about as
much power as an eight candlepower
incandescent bulb. When the current
is turned on, this magnet holds the
razor Wade steadily to the grinding
surface, overcoming the tendency of
the thin, elastic edge to spring away
from the hone.

"In looking out," he remarked to the
child, "do you notice how bright is
the green of the leaves and grass?"
The little girl nodded. .
"Now tell me why does it appear

FAME AND FORTUNE OFFERED
Rich Prize for Man Who Discovers
the Long-Sought Cure for
Tuberculosis. .
Dr. George W. Bloomer of Tale uni
versity, acting as spokesman for an
anonymous giver, has announced that
a prize of $100,000 has been set aside,
to be awarded to the first person any
where in the world who discovers a
cure for tuberculosis. The gift is un
conditional as to time, place, or kind
of cure, the only real condition being
that the new cure must have been in
constant use at least five years, and
that the promoter of the cure . con
vince the investigating board of the
merits of his discovery.
A large number of physicians have
been working for years to perfect vac
cine, or anti-toxin for tuberculosis, or
to find some agent, such as tuberculin,
which will assist in the cure of the dis
ease. Thus far, the experiments have
not furnished a product which will
either absolutely cure or prevent con
sumption, or render the patient im
mune against the disease. Many of
these serums have proved effective in
Increasing the resistance of the pa
tient and thus helping in the cure, but
no scientist of repute to-day claims to
have discovered a tuberculin which
will produce a cure without the com
bined aid of fresh air, rest and whole
some food.
A Pessimistic View.
Among the patients in a certain hos
pital of Harrisburg there was recently
one disposed to take a dark view of
his chances for recovery.
"Cheer up, old man!" admonished
the youthful medico attached to the
ward wherein the patient lay. "Your
symptoms are identical with those of
my own case four years ago. I was
just as sick as you are. Look at mo
now!"
The patient ran his eyes over the
physician's stalwart frame. "What
doctor did you have?" he finally asked,
feebly. Illustrated Sunday Magazine.

I smiled.
"Would you lynch me," I asked, "if

"Would we?" he snorted. "Why,
stranger, we've lynched fellers here

Welcome Words to Women
Women who suffer with disorders peculiar to their
aez should write to Dr. Pierce and receive free the
advice of a physician of over 40 years' experience
a skilled and successful specialist in the diseases
ef women. Every letter of this sort has the most
careful consideration and is regarded as sacredly
confidential. Many sensitively modest women write
fully to Dr. Pierce what theyi would shrink from
telling to their local physician. ' The local physician
is pretty sure to say that he cannot 'do anything
without "an examination." Dr. Pierce holds that
these distasteful examinations are generally need
less, and that no woman, except in rare cases, shoald submit to them.
Dr. Pierce's treatment will cure you right in the privacy of
your own home. His " Favorite Prescription" has cured
bundreds of thousands, some of them the worst of cases.
It is the only medicine of its kind that is the product of a regularly graduated
physician. . The only one good enough that its makers dare to print its every
ingredient on its outside wrapper. There's no secrecy. It will bear examina
tion. No alcohol and no habit-forming drugs are found in it. Some unscrup
ulous medicine dealers may offer you a substitute. Don't take it. Don't trifle
with your health. Write to World's Dispensary Medical Association, Dr. R.
V. Pierce, President, Buffalo, N. Y-, take the advice received and be well.
