One of the things that has helped the popularity of the raincoat is the universal objection to carrying an um brella. Indeed, people in some occu pations find it impossible to carry um brellas, and they will rejoice in the supporter designed by an Indiana than. Particularly will letter carriers find it a convenience, as it will hold an umbrella over their heads and leave both hands free to get mail from their bag and ring the doorbell. The ZL W\ | S § .\ | = - f /2 é &) \) A ; g :U g - »\ . e - Umbrella Holder. holder is attached to the user’s coat and has a groove in it and hooks to engage whatever enters the groove. The handle of the umbrella is placed in the groove and clamped fast, hold ing the rain protector firmly above the owner’s head. If the rain stops the umbrella can be closed and car ried in the holder ferrule down, thus preventing it from being an encum brance even then. Any person who has bundles to carry would find one of these devices useful. - : DEVELOP PLATES IN CAMERA Missouri Man Invents Contrivance En abling User to Finish Pictures Anywhere He Wishes. In taking photographs while travel ing or on vacation trips it is usually ‘macessary to bring all the plates or .ims home for development, owing to ‘ack of darkroom facilities. A Mis ‘ouri man has circumvented this by ‘inventing a camera that is also a dark room and the owner of which can develop his plates practically any where he chooses. The camera prop er is of the bellows type and is set in one end of a box much larger than would be required to hold it. It rests on a hinged door when extended. The box has a plateholder in the front end, but practically all of its interior is clear and near the rear end is a win \Q;\ A Sl : (pjilll‘ 9 & < Camera a Dark Room. dow of colored glass, covered by a hinged flap. A flexible sleeve with an elastic mouth is fitted into the rear wall and the operator works through this. With such an apparatus a pic ture can be develaped outdoors im mediately after it is taken. Ventilating Fans Harmful. . A test of ventilating fans in Brus sels has shown that in many places they do more harm than good by stir ring up germ laden dust. In the res taurants and cases investigated, the number of bacteria in each cubic me ter of air ranged from 10,000 to 22,000 before the ventilators were started, from 17,000 to 48,000 after they had been running an hour, and from 27,500 to 85,000 after two hours’ running. In a laboratory where remedies for tu berculosis were prepared, the bacteria increased from 8,500 before the ven tilator was started to 45,000 after one hour’s running and 75,000 after two hours’. In a private parlor the bac teria numbered 650 before the starting of the ventilator, 2,500 in one hour and 4,000 in two hours, and then—the ven tilator being stopped—diminished to 700 in two hours. Variation of Temperatures. The variation of the temperature of the water at the Equator and at the Poles varies less than 10 degrees in the course of the year, but between these points the variation sometimes reaches 40 degrees. WONDERS OF MODERN CLOCK Inventive Minds Shown in Ingenious Make-Up of Some of Automatic Timepleces Just Invented. Grandfather’s clock is outdone. It had ‘a calendar hand which told the day of the month, algo the day of the week. Sometimes a window was cut in the upper part of the.dial through which could. be seen a humanized moon face slowly moving across the opening and giving the phases of the moon. In most cases if the calendar mechanism was not out of order the moon mechanism certainly was, and in the evening one could rarely tell which date it was because the hand was about half way between. The first of the month the calendar hand had to be set for the correct number of days—thirty or thirty-one or twenty-eight. The modern calen dar clock takes care of these matters automatically. Every four years it automatically adds another day to February. It needs winding only once a year, Few persons consider the clock as a plece of machinery, especially when gotten up in the cheap forms which are now so universal. But the prin cipal clock buflders employ skilled en gineers, electrical and mechanical, whose inventive minds are shown in the ingenious makeup of some of the automatic clock devices which are be coming more and more commercially popular in the effort to provide uni form standard time throughout the country. If simultaneous actions in different parts of -a large~ establish ment are dependent upon the clock, all the clocks in the different depart ments must tell exactly the same time. By the old way there were used many high grade clocks, each expen sive and even then liable to vary from each other. The modern way is to in stall one high-grade master clock, which automatically regulates any number of secondary clocks through out the establishment, so that aH exactly agree. !

Its height is I]eas than' three inches, yet it covers i a radius of from two to three feet LAUGHTER PLEASING TO GOD Nowhere in Biblical Lore Can There Be Found Intimation of Any g . Other Idea. We misjudge and distort the mnor mally human nature of the Saviour when we picture him going through life, as Dante did after he had writ ten his “Inferno,” ‘with the shadows of perdition on his brow. We may gravely question when it was that the cross began to darken our Lord’s pathway; there is no hint of such & foreboding until we reach the mid dle of his ministry. From that on there are occasional tokens that he saw Calvary ahead of him, and was at times pressed down with a dread ful sense of the imevitable agony which awaited him at the end. But all this is very far from affording any reasonable ground for the conclusion that he smiled sometimes, but never laughed. If God did not intend us to laugh, on occasion, why did he endow us with the capacity to laugh, with a gense of the humorous, with the fac ulty to see and enjoy wit, fun and the absurd side of life; and, further more, why did he produce so many things and people to laugh at?— Zion’s Herald. LAWYER CURED OF ECZEMA “While attending school at Lebanon, Ohio, in 1882, I became afflicted with boils, which lasted for about two years, when the affliction assumed the form of an eczema ©on my face, the lower part of my face being inflamed most of the time. There would be water-blisters rise up and open, and wherever the water would touch it would burn, and cause another one to rise. After the blister would open, the place would scab over, and would burn and itch so as to be almost un bearable at times. In this way the sores would spread from one place to another, back and forth over the whole of my upper lip and chin, and at times the whole lower part of my face would be a solid sore. This con dition continued for four or five years, without getting any better, and in fact got worse all the time, so much so that my wife became alarmed lest it prove fatal. “During all this time of boils and eczema, I doctored with the best phy siclans of this part of the country, but to no avail. Finally I decided to Try Cuticura Remedies, which I did, tak ing the Cuticura Resolvent, applying the Cuticura Ointment to the sores, and using the Cuticura Soap for wash ing. In a very short time I began to notice improvement, and continued to use the Cuticura Remedies until I was well again, and have not had a re currence of the trouble since, which is over twenty years. I have recom mended Cuticura Remedies to others ever since, and have great faith in them as remedies for skin diseases.” (Signed) A. C. Brandonm, Attorney-at- Law, Greenville, 0., Jan. 17, 1911.

Out of more than 225 public hos pitals for the insane, with a popula tion of fully 150,000, only 70, or less than one-third, make any provision for their tuberculous inmates, and this, too, in spite of the fact that the percentage of deaths from this disease is very high among this class of peo ple. Such is the substance of a state ment made recently by the National Association for the Study and Preven tion of Tuberculosis. Seventy hos pitals in 28 states, providing all told about 3,350 beds for tuberculosis in sane patients, sums up the provision made for this class of sufferers, al though the percentage of deaths from tuberculosis among the insane ranges from 50 to 200 per cent. higher than among the general population.
