Wireless Hour SiqnaIs.

When a ship is approaching shore
great caution is often necessary be-
cause of uncertainty as to the vessels
precise position. Several years ago
Mr. John Munro proposed that wireless
telegraphy be utilized to send hour sig
nails over the sea round England to a
distance of 200 or 800 miles from shore
in order that the captains of incoming
ships might thus be enabled to rectify
their chronometers to Greenwich time.
The government of Canada has just
established a system of this kind at
Camperdown, near Halifax. Every
morning the exact hour is to be sent
out over the sea, so that all vessels fur
nished with receiving apparatus may
pick up the true time from the air.

ELECTRIC SUNBURN.
Effect Upon the Skin of Powerful Ra-
diations from Electric Currents.

Cases of injury from exposure to
intense radiations are becoming more
common as a source of such radia-
tion are more numerous. Not long
ago the sun itself was practically the
only source of the kind; now, not to
speak of such forms of radiation as
the X-rays and that due to radioactiv-
ity, we have many powerful sources
OF light, such as the various types of
electric arc, that are able to do in
jury when their intensity is great We
quote from note on this subject from
Cosmos. Says this paper:
"On board a cruiser recently under
repair at Portsmouth, England, it be-
came necessary to make hole in the
shutter of turret. The mechanical
processes commonly employed for
work of this kind are so slow that
an officer asked permission to melt
the hole by using the electric arc.
This operation, although we'll known,
attracted many curious spectators,
from the captain down to the sailors.
All went we'll, and the solid steel, un-
der the action of the current, flowed
like melted glass.
"But on the morrow every one who
had witnessed the operation was either
half-blinded or horribly burned The
officer who had directed the work
had the skin of his face completely
scorched and of deep copper color;
1t gave off a serous liquid like that
from a burn. Several sailors who
were at some distance from the
turret had their vision so af-
fected that they were sent to
the hospital, and it was feared that
they might lose their sight.
"The electric arc, rich in chemical
rays, especially when it is formed be-
tween certain metals, may produce, as
we have seen above, results of the
same kind. Hence the necessity of
protection during exposure to DOW
erful arc or to a mercury vapor lamp
in quartz glass. The ordinary glass
used in the Cooper-Hewitt mercury
lamps absorbs the dangerous chemical
rays to a sufficient degree. If one
has not the advantage of being a
negro, it is necessary to cover the
face and hands with appropriate mask
and gloves. In any case such intense
sources of light must not be looked at
directly undess the eyes are protect.

The steward presently entered, shad-

Then he started around the table in
pursuit of her, in all directions, while,
after the manner of her kind, she
baked him, rosily, star-eyed. They
laughed; and when two young people
laugh it is sign that all goes we'll

"Its a great world" added the duke.
"For surprises" supplemented the

Electric Railway Signals.

The Great Western railway in Eng.
land is experimenting with a promis-
ing form of electric signals for the
prevention of accidents In fogs and
storms. The apparatus consists of an
iron rail placed halfway between the
regular rails and connected electrical
ly with the semaphores controlling
switches; and Of an electric bell and
a whistle, carried in the cab of the
locomotive, and actuated by contact
with the electric rail as the train
passes over it. The middle rail Is
elevated at a certain height when the
semaphores are turned to indicate
safety, and at a greater height
when they indicate danger. In
the first case, when the loco
motive comes in contact, the bell
rings in the cab, and the engineer
knows that the way is free; in the
second case, the whistle blows in the
cab to indicate danger.

How TO pe-Maonetize a Watch.

Hang the watch to a string and twist
the string so as to rotate the watch
rapidly near the pole of a strong mag
net. While it is whirling, gradually
take it away from the magnet. This
will produce the desired effect, says a
correspondent in Southern Machinery.
The method used for de-magnetizing
with alternating current consists of a
coil of wire with hole in the center
large enough to admit a watch, the
coil being connected to a source of
alternating current, and when the
watch is dropped in and pulled out, it

Wireless TeIegraphy on Railroads.

The administration of the Russian
railroads has recently experimental
with wireless telegraphic signals on
the line between Berlin and Beelitz,
employing train OF four cars carrying
antennae and receiving apparatus, the
transmitting apparatus being installed
between Berlin and Sangerhausen. The
transmitting wire was suspended upon
telegraphic poles for distance Of 200
feet. about foot beneath the ordinary
telegraph wires. Within a distance
of about seven and a half miles, on
each side of the transmitting station,
the signals were clearly and distinctly
received on the moving train.

LYDIA E. PINKHAM

Nature and a woman's work COIN
bined have produced the grandest
remedy for woman's ills that the
world has ever known.
In the good fashioned days Of
our grandrnothers they relied upon
the roots and herbs of the field to
cure disease and mitigate suffering.
The Indians on our Western
Plains to-day can produce roots and
herbs for every ailment, and cure
diseases that battle the most skilled
physicians who have spent years in
the study of drugs.
From the roots and herbs of the
field Lydia E. Pinkham more than
thirty years ago gave to the women
of the world remedy for their pc
culiar ills, more potent and etfica-
cious thanany combination of drugs.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is now recognized as the
standard remedy for woman's ills.
Mrs. Bertha Muff, of 515 NC. ST.,
Louisiana, Mo-, writes:
Complete restoration to health
means SO much to me that for the sake
of other suffering women L am willing
to make my troubles public.
"For twelve years l had been suffer
ing with the worst forms of female ills.
During that time L had eleven different
physicians without help. No tongue
can tell what suffered, and at times
could hardly walk. About two years
ago l wrote Mrs. Pinkham for advice.
1 followed it, and can truly say that
Lydia Z. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound and Mrs. Pinkhaln's advice re-
stored health and strength. 1t is
worth mountains of gold to suffering
women"
What Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound did for Mrs. Muff,
it will do for other suffering women.
