New Device Gives Motor 1
Efficiency, Saves Fuel
Science will play a big part in our'
nation’s defense and war plans. The*
scientific research foundation of
California has been conducting ex
periments with a new discovery of
the greatest speed ever attained,
mechanically, developing the as
tounding speed of over 150,000 r.p.ns.
The foundation has been using ’
this terrific speed to break -down,:
and atomize patho-genic micro
organisms that can only bo seen
with a very powerful microscopic,
lens. The findings of the research
foundation have been very interest
ing to members of the medical pro
fession. Its clinical results have
been very satisfactory. It has long’
been known that the human body •
absorbs numerous forms of patho
genic type bacteria (disease-bear
ing bacteria) such as ash diphtheria,
tuberculosis, influenza and we be
lieve infantile paralysis. It was-
I necessary in order to disintegrate
chemicals, solutions and enzymes,
that some method must be devised
( that would break up media into sudb
l a fine atomized state that it could
be readily absorbed into the body
through the lung tissue.
During these research experi
ments, it was discovered that time
basic principle used to disintegrate
the materials for medical use coufcf
be applied to the atomization of tins.*
hydro-carbon series of petroleum
(fuels used in the internal combus
tion engine) the experimental re
sults of the research foundation
were astounding.

Coldest Spot on Earth
Is Interior of Siberia
Without exception, the coldest
place on earth is Werchojan.sk, in
the interior of Siberia. The lowest
temperature ever recorded was tab
en there on January 15, 1886— it was.
90 degrees and a fraction below
zero.
Werchojansk is in the latitude dL
the pole and is so cold that flue
earth is generally frozen to a depth
of about 900 feet. In the warmest
season it never completely thaw*.
To illustrate just how cold it is m
this part of Siberia in the winter.',
the inhabitants find it almost impas
sible to break through the ice with
a pick as the implement rebounds;
with an incredible, not to say dan-.
/ gerous, impetus. When chopping,
i green wood or a frozen tree, a show
er of sparks continually flies from
the axe. Dash a glass of water into.
the air and it is a crystal sheet of
ice before it strikes the ground. Osv (
casionally wild geese and oilier
game birds are picked up dead is
the fields of Werchojansk. In their
flight across the country they too- ■
quemly freeze to death high in the
air and drop like a bomb to earth.
In the wintertime the people buy
their milk frozen or. by the “piece,**
it being allowed to freeze about a
stick which makes a convenient -haa-,.
die with which to carry, it like a i
giant popsicle. The milkman leave*,
one chunk or two as the case may
be, at the homes of his customer* 1
who have their own troubles trying 1
to melt it.

Washing Lisle Hosiery
The use of lisle and wool stock
ings is so new to many women thalc
they are doubtful as to the betf,-
method of washing them. The sar»r«
simple methods you employ for
washing silk and nylon stackings ap
ply to the fine new lisles. Plenty
of velvet suds made with a pure
milk soap in lukewarm water; caws-“
ful rinsing in lukewarm water—am.. 1 ,
your colorful new lisles will always«
look as lovely and fresh as yout,,
other hosiery.
For knitted wool stockings use the«
same pure mild soap and the same
washing method, but be careful not'
to rub the feet hard if you wart 1
them to fit comfortably.

rinsing water by hand and dry by
laying out flat in a warm dry place,

frames.
X-ray in Sinusitis
Patients who suffer chronic sinus
trouble may often be cured or in*-;
proved through X-ray treatments.
Dr. Ivan M. Woolley of Portland,"
Ore., reported to the Radiological t
Society of America.
“In 11 years’ experience,’’ Ov. (
Woolley said, “no harmful results
have been seen. Predictions that.
X-ray treatment might seriously
complicate indicated surgical pro
cedures have been proved false.’*
Dr. Woolley said published sts*-
tistics revealed a general average
of 33 per cent symptom-free, 41 pci
cent improved, and only 26 per oentjf.

apy has a definite place in present-,
day treatment of chronic sinusitis”, - %

Life Depends on Proteins
Proteins, known to the average;
person as the main constituents oi. -
such foodstuffs as meats, eggs, Sab,
cheese, are really of countless sort*,',
and all life depends on them.
Proteins are of two main Idndbr'
Roundish and fiberlike. Silk, hair
and such substances are fiberhke
proteins, while the white of eggs, the
constituents of the human blood are
roundish proteins.
The present methods of transform
ing roundish proteins into fibrotes
ones are very drastic and not easily
controlled.
Such proteins, derived from plants
and animals, are widely used for
production of plastics and synthetic
“wool and silk’’ and so on.
