taking a basis for illustration the fact that
light travels through space with the amaz-
ing velocity Of 1872 900 miles in a second Of
time. He showed that II row of posts were
spread around the earth at the equator
10 would take $4,000 miles of
wire to reach around and If the
wire were continued seven times
around these posts, there would be 175,OOO
miles OF wire. Now, IL an electric current
is started on its journey, 1t would make the
175,O00-mile journey N less than second
of time, or while the 391a inch pendulum Of
clock would swing from one side to the
other, such a current would go from the
earth to the moon in less than a second, and
to the sun in 430 seconds, a distance of
80 ,O00O00 miles. And yet, the star that lies
closest to the earth, called Alpha Centauri,

benefit to the public.
when l went to them n short time ago
1 was unable to follow my business. I
was weak, miserable and detected and was
getting worse every day. l seemed to
lack both physica. and mental strength.
and any exertion of mind or body made me
nervous and prostrated. l had severe
headaches all the time; not merely little
discomfort in the head. but much real
agony and suffering that from this cause
We're constantly buzzing and ringing with
frequent spells of dizziness.
My digestion was in wretchcd state
AT times ! could eat nothing, and there
was an entire lack of natura. hunger that Is
common with healthy peop'e. My stomach
was sore and painful and always sour, and
there seemed to be a total lack of natural
action of all my digestive organs.
Il regard their success in handling my
long standing trouble as exactly in keeping
with their reputation. After short period
Of treatment found myself practically free
from all catarrhal trouble in the head and
stomach. l am enjoying excellent health
in every respect, and, to cover the point
briefly. my improvement from the start has
been gratifying beyond all expectation
