ELECTRIC BRIEFS
Uncle Sam's army holds one pat
ent right which places it ahead of
other nations in the field of wireless
instruments for the use on aero
planes. It weighs but seven _ pounds
and will transmit messages 7 miles.
An electric shoestring farm is op
erated by a Pennsylvania power
company. The farming space is more
than a mile long but only a few
yards wide, for the land area in
cludes the right of way for a high
tension power line.
Steel ships sunk in the course of
the present war may be raised with
the aid of pontoons clamped firmly
to the steel hull with big electric
magnets. The magnets receive the
electric energy from the generators
of a ship on the surface.
Electric gasoline pumps may be
installed at the curbs in place of the
ordinary hand-operated pumps.
Pressing a button starts the gasoline
flowing and a pointer shows the cus
tomer just how much gasoline has
been measured out to him.
"Baked by Wire" is the tag at
tached to loaves from the big oven
of a progressive western baker. That
the public prefers electrically
baked bread is shown by the fact
this particular baker has doubled his
business by installing the electric
ovens.
A "Muff Controller" is not an
electrical device for keeping the
hands warm. It is a stevedore's con
trôler which may be carried about
swung over the shoulders of the
foreman. A fexible cable connects
the controller to an electric winch
and permits the foreman to operate
the winch from a position where he
may observe the loading operations,
the raising or lowering of a cargo on
a ship or dock.

The modern washerwoman, the
electric washerwoman, is not the

who "took in washing's" a few years

cently purchased an electric washer
on installment. It enables her to do
more and better work than she had
been able to do before and the cost
for current is insignificant com
pared with the saving in labor.

The Review Doll and Toy Fund For the Poor Children
Is Growing Fast
The mentally stultified, parsi
monious, pessimistic gink who
squeezes his nickels and scoffs at
charitable undertakings designed to
create cheer for the cheerless, joy
for the joyless and toys for the toy
less is going to receive a solar plex
us punch in his self conceit if he
will keep his eye on the growing
list of "goodfellows" who.are daily
swelling the receipts for the Review
Doll and Toy Fund. Only those who
appreciate the plan are requested to
take part in it, and the nickel or
dime from the little, old comfortably
situated boy or girl who feels like
dividing his Christmas with some
little old frowsy victim of hard luck
will b,e just as gladly received and as
fully acknowledged as such big,
generous donations as the banks
have made, or the Kings Daughters,
or any other individual or institution
who probably commands more of
this worlds goods than the aforesaid
youngsters who may want to add
their bit to the Fund.
For it isn't the amount you wish
to give ?v. much as it is si^r.ifi
cance of the gift which implies that
you are in sympathy with and favor

extend kindness to those unfortu

LOUISIANA'S CAMPAIGN
AGAINST TUBERCULOSIS
From now on a state-wide cam
paign against Tuberculosis will be
actively pushed in Louisiana. Many
states have recognized the danger of
permitting consumption to menace
the community, swell the death rec
ords and otherwise damage the sta
tus of certain localities. Boards of
Trade are assisting to stamp out the
disease. Press Associations are ear
nestly endeavoring to impart
through the newspapers the neces
sary information to prevent and to
cure consumption. Louisiana will do
all in her power to make the state
clean .and healthy place for all her
people. YOU are invited to help. As
the various districts and parishes
are oganized in this Anti-Tubercu
losiè campaign, you will be advised
for the part you are to take Litera
ture and information are available
at the headquarters, 417 Canri St
Every man, woman and child will
be an important factor in the
"stamp out consumption" crusade.
South Carolina is making a fine
effort to be a healthy southern com
munity. In Illinois the school-child
ren are enlisted. Reports from other
sections show equal interest in this
determinated and universal work
of ridding the country of an appal
ling yearly death-harvest.
The living tuberculosis germs are
contained in the spit by millions.
These are easily scattered in the
form of fine spray by coughing.
When spit is cast on the floor or
sidewalk it is easily tracked on the
shoes. It then drives and mingles
with the dust of the room.
Dry sputum may also drop off in
flakes from handkerchiefs or soiled

You Need a Tonic
There are times in every woman's life when she
needs a tonic to help her over the hard places.
When that time comes to you, you know what tonic
to take—Cardui, the woman's tonic. Cardui is com
posed of purely vegetable ingredients, which act
gently, yet surely, on the weakened womanly organs,
and helps build them back to strength and health.
It has benefited thousands aqd thousands of weak,
ailing women in its past half century of wonderful
success, and it will do the same for you.
You can't make a mistake in taking
CARDUI
The Woman's Tonic
Miss Amelia Wilson, R. F. D. No. 4, Alma, Ark.,
says: "I think Cardui is the greatest medicine on earth,
for women. Before I began to take Cardui, I was
so weak and nervous, and had such awful dizzy
spells and a poor appetite. Now I feel as well and
as strong as I ever did, and can eat most anything."
Begin taking Cardui today. Sold by ail dealers.

clothing (such as coat sleeves,
lapels or pillow-cases and sheets).
It then gets pulverized on the floor.
The fine spray from coughing and
the dust containing these germs are
readily inhaled and swallowed.
The hands are frequently soiled
with sputum. The food, especially of
infants and children, is thus contam
inated if the mother or cook has
tuberculosis.
The sputum is consequently the
most dangerous source of tubercul
osis.
The milk of a tubercular mother
seldom contains the germs, but the
infant is easily infected from the
mother's sputum, as already noted.
Cow's milk (also butter and
cheese) occasionally contain bacilli
from cows that have the disease
even slightly.
The urine, feces and discharges
from tuberculosis sores may oc
casionally cause disease, but are less
common sources of danger owing to
their manner of disposal.
Infection takes place in three
ways, the first two being common.
By inhalation through the mouth
or nose, of dust and sprays.
By swallowing both the inhaled
matter contaminated food.
By inoculation into cuts or
scratches and throngh gums.
