OF Value to Nurses
MISUNDERSTANDING Device
Will Prevent Accidess1a


The rubber bulb has it's lower walls
th1ckened and an opening Is provided
for the insertion Of the glass tube.
The interior wall Of the opening Is
nodded with thread to cooperate
with a corresponding thread ON the
head of the tube. The upper end of
the tube extends into the bulb to serve
as an abutment or stop to limit the
depression of the bulb. BY twisting
the tube to the right or left, while the
bulb is held rigid, the distance be-
tween the abutment and top of the
bulb may be diminished or increased
accordingly. If definite amount of
fluid is required the tube is first prop
erly adjusted, SO that the expansion
of the end of the bulb after contrac-
ton will induct the right quantity of
medicine into the tube, discharging
it as soon as a second depression of
the bulb takes place.
By adapting the device to be kept
in the bottle containing the medicine
1t not only serves as a stopper, but
also keeps the dropper clean and
free from dust and the communicating
air Of the sick room. Harris Connor
of Philadelphia Pa, is the inventor.

Goodness i'm Summer

Prof. Willis L. Moore, chief of the
United States weather bureau, has in
vented a machine for cooling buildings
in hot weather. 1t promises to be a
great boon to sweltering humanity,
and is not an expensive apparatus.
The air enters through a tube or
pipe, which extends from q room to
the exterior of the building and begins
to freeze when it reaches the center
of the cylinder (E). From e to G
the air becomes steadily colder. and
is coldest when it 5 discharged.
The cylinder is eight 1eet high and
two and one-half feet in diameter. L.
is capable Of taking and discharsing
200 CUBIC feet of air a minute. The
air which It discharges is free from
dust and moisture and is at a tenn
perature OF 2S to 80 degrees.
This machine has capacity of cool
ing about 10000 cubic feet of space
during the hottest weather. 1t is filed
with an ingredient and needs to be
charged only once a day.
The machine will keep the tempera-
ture at co degrees when the ther-
mometer marks up to 1UO. The ap-
paratus works automatically, and
operates on the principle of gravity
The machine has been patented in
this country. No chemicals Gus

slot in the top of the bar which car.
ries the jaw, and by slipping the piv.

upward and over toward the front end
of the slot the loose Jaw is free to

reverse movement of the lever tight

ed This Year With Unusual Pomp.
The birthday of Rome is still kept
as an annual holiday by the Romans,
bit this year the day was celebrated
by an unusually splendid fete on the
Palatine, given by the International
Artistic Club. More than 700 people
took part in the ancient Roman pro-
:cession, which was composed of Nu-
indian cavalry, Pretorians on horse
and on foot, ensign bearers, bug1ers,
Dacians, slaves, cars drawn by oxen
and litters for patrician ladies', patri-
clans on horseback, car for holy water.

vestals, augurs, athletes, mirhics, ami

sacrificed), lictors and senators. The
procession, having made the tour of
the Palatine, was grouped in the Sta.
dium, where an altar was erected,
chairs placed for the senators and q
raised dais for the. chorus. Incense
was burnt on the altar by the higa
priest and priestesses to the goddesses
3Pala and Roma, and .Horace's secular
hymn was sung by the chorus, after
which began the games. ssS III !. VIII =.-:

The first rude shock to the prevail
ing ideas concerning Lie atmosphere
was given in 1774, when Priestley dis
covered in it the very active element,
oxygen. Two years later he added to
this the passive element, nitrogen, and
the two main constituents of the in
visible air became captlves of science.
To these new elements the old idea
clung for time. Oxygen was named
by it's discoverer dephligisticated air:
1t lacked phlogiston the fancied fire
clement and sought it with eager ap-
petite in whatever it touched. Nit
rogen was called phlogisticated air.
1t was believed to be saturated with
phlogiston and. therefore. fatal to
flame. While oxygen combined
briskly with all the elements, nitrogen
refused to combine at all except under
