The Nernst Electric Lamp.

London, Feb. 22.--Walter Nernst, a
professor in the Goettingen university,
has invented an electric lamp which
does not require inclosure in vacuum,
as is the case WIN the present glow
lamp. The Nernst light is emitted by
rod composed of rare earths, similar
to those used in the manufacture of
the Welsbach mantle. These rods do
not conduct the electricity cold, but
heated. They give out mild, yellow
ish light, and work equally we'll at any
pressure, with consequent economy in
copper
The invention was discussed by the
Society Of Arts last evening. Messrs.
Swinburne and Ayrton, the celebrated
chemists, declared it to be the greatest
discovery in many years. The inven-
tion created sensation among the
members of the society.
Professor Nernst's lamp is intended
to take the place of the ordinary in
candescent electric lamp, and, accord
ing to the records which he has made
in experimental work, 1T promises great
economy in the production of light.
AS used In the present incandescent or
glow lamps, the electric current Is con-
Quoted to the tilament of carbon, which
because of its electrical resistance, or
choking effect upon the current, is
raised to white heat, and thus emits
light. To prevent the destruction of
dhe carbon by burning it is enclosed
in glass bulbs from which the air has
been exhausted. Professor Nernst
does away with the glass bulb entirely
for in place of the combustible carbon
filament he uses filaments of magne-
SUM oxide or other materials which
are combustible. These materials are
notable for the large proportion of Wis
ible light rays which they radiate.
The lime light and the Welshbach gas
nght mantles are examples of their
value in this regard. These materials
are, however, under ordinary circum-
stances, non-conductors of electricity
and Professor Nernst's discovery
which admits of their use, is that when
tney are heated they become conduc-
tors Using this discovery in expert
ments with a hollow magnesium tube
he obtained results which showed the
expenditure of only 96 watts of cleo
trical energy per candle power, against
about three watts per candle power for
the ordinary glow lamp. This econ
omy in the use of electrical energy
could be utlliZed either by putting
three times as many lamps on a wire
circuit or by reducing the size, and
consequently the cost, of tne copper
conductors for the current. The cost
of these is now very great.
So far as has been made public, Pro-
fessor Nernst has not yet settled upon
commercial form of his lamp. In
an experimental form ne has accomp-
lished the initial heating of the mag
nesium filament by placing it in the
focus of q reflector, under which Is al
so spiral coil of platinum wire. A
current is first passed Through the
platinum, which furnishes heat enough
at the focus of the reflector to render
the magnesium conductive. The cur
rent is then switched Through the
magnesium, and this, becoming incan-
descent, gives out the light and also
gives out heat enough to maintain its
own conductivity.

The young married couple who are CROWN
ed with good health are really a king and
queen. They are possessed of an armor that,
enables them to withstand all the hardships
and misfortunes of life. Accidents aside,
they will live long, happy lives of mutual
helpfulness, and they will be blessed with
atuiable, healthy children. They will sit
together in the twilight of old age and look
back without regret over a mutually happy,
helpful, useful, successful companOnship.
There are thousands of young couples
every day who start welded life with but
one drawback, ,-one or the other, or both,
suffer from ill health. There can be no true
welded happiness that is overshadowed by
the black cloud of physical suffering. The
man who contemplates matrimony, and re-
allies that through overwork or worry or
neglect, he is suffering from i'll health,
should take the proper steps to remedy it
before he assumes the responsibilities of
husband DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery is the best of all medicines for men
who have neglected their health. 1t makes

No woman should wed while she suffers
from weakness and disease in a womanly
way. These are the most disastrous of dis

They break down her general health. They
unfit her for wifehood and motherhood

WESTERN UNION
EXEMPT FROM
THE WAR TAX
important Decision by
Judge Morrow.
ITS PATRONS MUST PAY IT
NO UNSTAMPED MESSAGES NAV
BE TAKEN BY THE COMPANY.
Any Person Filing Telegram With
out Affxing a Stamp Is Liable
to Fine of One Hun
dred Dollars.

United States Circuit Judge Morrow
filed an opinion yesterday on the demur-
rer submitted by the Western Union Tel
egraph Company in the case of ]. Waldere
Kirke against that company which prac-
tically amounts to a dismissal of the case
and exempts the big corporation from
its share of the war tax.
Kirke some months ago filed an I'M
stamped telegram in the office of the COM
pany. The operators refused to send the
message, and he accordingly brought suit
against the company in the United States
courts. A demurrer was filed in the case
tended that as it would have been subject
to a fine of $40 for receiving an unstamped
message, 1t was perfectly justified in re-
jecting any message which did not bear
a duly Cancelled stamp.
In his opinion Judge Morrow takes the
same ground as the company and SuStains
the demurrer. He cites sections 6, Z, 8 and
Is of the war revenue bill. Section of
this bill imposes a fine of 500 upon any
person who shall make, sign or issue any
taxable paper and neglect to stamp and
cancel the same.
Section is of this bill imposes a fine of
$40 upon any telegraph company for send
ing such message in such case. The court
accordingly holds that Kirke should have
stamped his message and is liable in the
som of 500 for filing 1t, while the COM
pany might have been fined $40 had 1t re-
ceived and transmitted it.
The point involved is, Who shall pay
the tax? and the court holds, under the
sections quoted, that the sender must fur
nish the stamp.
