JOHN HUEBNER
GETS HIS PATENT
West Hammond Inventor of
Novel Washing Machine
Receives Glad Tidings.

John Huebner of West State street
received a letter this morning from the
United States patent authorities at
Washington, d. c.. stating that he had
been granted a patent on his new
tangled washington machine.
Mr.. Huebner left for Chicago this
morning to sign the necessary papers
which are at the Office of Milo Stevens
& Co, patent attorneys, through which
firm he secured his patent.
About three months ago Mr. Huebner
devised a new scheme in the way of a
washing machine. All that is necessary
to do a common sized washing is to
sit down in the rocking chair attach
ment, which is part Of the machine.
and rock away for few minutes and
the work that requires hours of hard
labor is done with ease in less than
ten minutes.
How 1t Works.
The rocking chair is connected to
the body of the machine by two steel
bars and on each side is supported by
two large heavy steel springs, while
the base of the machine is operated on
the ball bearing plan.
When Mr.. Huebner first put out a
machine and submitted a drawing to
his patent attorneys, it was refused on
the grounds that he had infringed upon
the patent rights of a machine which
was constructed on nearly the same
principles. Determined not to be out
witted by a little thing like that, he
returned TO West Hammond and for
two weeks worked hard on lettering
the machine and constructing it in
such a way that he would not be in
fringing upon the rights of previous
| inventors He finally succeeded and
the patent of his device was the re-
| suit.
Mr.. Huebner is not decided whether
he will erect a small factory in Ham
mond or not He has had an offer by
| a Chicago concern who wants to manu-
facture the machines and in addition tC
| paying a good sum they have offered
the inventor royalty on all machine:
| turned out.

and was fined 81 and costs, amounting
to $11. He was unable to pay the fine
and after waiting an hour, his wife had
change of heart and produced the
necessary and liberated her husbnad
Collen was sorry for his actions and
was overjoyed when Mrs. Collen came
in the station with the monay, and
they went out arm in arm.

Queen of Spain Helps
Lengthen Lives Here,
Chemist Wiley Says

Strange as II may seem, the Queen Of
Spain has done much to increase the
average span Of life IN America.
This is the opinion Of DR.. Harvey w.
Wiley. chief Of the Bureau Of Chem
istry of the Department Of Agriculture.
DR.. Wiley believes that all the talk
heard nowadays about the decreasing
number Of years a man may 1--we Is
wrong. He thinks our lives are on the
increase in length.
There are several other reasons why
the human race is tending TO a longer
llfo, ana DIT. Wiley thinks that they are
having such a potent influence that the
ume viii come when three score years
and ten will be the usual and not the
exceptional allotment TO men. Begin
ming with tho improvement in the rear
ing or small children, Or. Wiley said
today:
Vital statistics show that deaths
among infants five years old are Aot 50
numerous as they were twenty-five years
ago 4 baby under FIVE years now has
about twice the chance of living that II
had then. People have learned that
artificial baby foods are not 10 be COM
pared fer the nourishment Of babies 10
natural foods. Mothers are now nursing
their own babies to a greater extent
than they did some years ago, and are
abclishing artificial baby foods"
The doctor added very seriously,

mothers TO nurse their own babies since
the Queen OF Spain declared her inten-
tiCn TO nurse the heir.
Except mothers milk, the only safe
food for babies is pure, certified cows

/ Another factor IN prolonging human

checked that IN Vienna the deaths from
typhoid fever do not exceed one IN loo
annually In fact. this disease Is al
most unknown in that city. Since II Is
known that typhoid fever is principally
propa gated in water and milk, II Is Ger
tain that the proper con TOl OF these two
great supplies will rob typhoid fever OF
its principal teTrOTs
Another factor adding TO the length
OF human life. Is the outdoor treatment
and segregation OF consumptives. Scten-
tihc investigation has established the
fact that tuberculosis is an infectious
disease. If the tuberculosis germ IS can
be prevented from entering the lungs

segregation OF consumptives. taking the

many an invalid from death
Progress IN surgery. and especially IN
asepsis and anti-sepsis. is another cause
for the prolOnging Of life.
AEepsis. the doctor explained, is the
treatment Of fresh wounds before germs

germs after they have collected. Then

The deaths from Inflammation and
