J aHl Shuman Says.

Philadelphia-By using the princi-
pie OF the common hotbed by which

dead Of winter, Frank Shuman, en-
gineer and chemist, thinks he has
solved the old problem of converting
the heato the sun into power at such
low cost that it's commercial use is
possible.s
He has now running an engine that
getsfts power from the sun and is. so
simple that child can operate 1t.
Shuman, who is the inventor of the
concrete file used in all skyscrapers
and the wire glass, says his machine
will revoutionize the motive power Of
the world,
On the Shuman property In Tacony

filled with ether connect with a small

No fuel is used, the heat of the sun

The light rays of the sun in this lati

they will yield high temperatures, III

500 degrees or higher. The light rays

Dreading his masters displeasure ii
he refused, the trembling minister ap.

hand between the bars, grasped the
animal by the ear. With fierce
growl the tiger sprang to its feet
while the wrctched minister clung
grimly to it, divided between fear Of
the tiger and dread of the sultan. Al
that moment, to his inexprGssible re
