Narcosis by Blue Rays.

A dentist at Geneva, DR.. Radard.
after having for several years made
experiments with the narcotic effect
of blue light, has submitted his re-
suits to the Swiss Society of Odon-
tology. He claims that complete
narcosls can be obtained if the rays
Of a blue electric light are brought
t. bear on the human eye, while ali
other rays Of light, particularly Of
daylight, are kept off it. The mar
COSTS thus obtained is so complete
that, during the same, little dental
operations, such as pulling or filling
teeth, etc., can be executed without
causing the patient the least amount
Of pain. While the effect of the blue
rays is very strong one, that of
violet-blue and green rays is less in.
tensive, and yellow or red rays show
no effect at all. The inventor is as
yet unable to give a definition of the
cause OF this remarkable discovery.

BANISHED
Coffee Finally Had to Go.

The way some persons cling to cof-
Zee even after they know it is dol
them harm is puzzler. But it is an
easy matter to give it up for good,
when Postum Food Coffee is proper

A girl writes: Mother had been
suffering with nervous headaches for
seven weary years, but kept drinking
coffee.
one day I asked her why she did
not give up coffee, as cousin of
mine had done who had taken to
Postum. But mother was such
slave to coffee she thought it would
be terrible to give it up.
Finally, one day, she made the
change to Postum, and quickly her
headaches disappeared. One morn
ing while she was drinking Postum
SO freely and with such relish asked
for taste.
That started me on Postum, and
now drink it more freely than did
coffee, which never comes into our
AOuSS now.
"A girl friend of mine, one day,
saw me drinking Postum and asked
II 1t was coffee. told her it was
Postum, and gave her some to take
Rome, but forgot to tell her how to
make it.
The next day she said she did not
see how ! could drink Postum.
round she had made it like ordinary
coffee. So told her how to make it

said she never drank any coffee that

Aluminium in Machinery.

Aluminium is increasingly used In
machine construction as in crank
cases and gear boxes for motor cars,
for electric wire, and for new alloys,
pigments, and metal plating, and the
aluminium cell as a lightning ar
roster has proved to be valuable
addition. to lightning-protecting de-
vices. During recent years the price.
of tin has been very high, and since
adequate new supplies of ore have not
been discovered, substitutes for tin
must be used in manufactures. Alum
mum is regarded as probable the
most available substitute for tin in
the great majority Of uses to which
that metal is put, owing to the d..
ndnution in the price Of aluminium,
the practically limitless supply of the
raw material, and the favorable phys
ical properties of the metal AS the
production of aluminium is cheapened
80 will the uses for it increase. The
demand steadily keeps ahead of the
supply-Scientific American.

No locomotive is used nor Is there

be run together for conveying letters

MAKING A BIG MINE
AT THE COPPER APEX

Fred r. Davis returned from a trip to
Park City Sunday night, after having paid
a visit to the Copper Apex company 5
property. He states that the deep tunnel
is now completed for distance of SEQ
feet and that. within the next 200 or 800
feet the face will be carried under the ore
bodies opened i'm the upper workings.
Splendid work is being done at the
property" said Mr.. Davis. and while the
main ore shoots are not expected to make
their appearance for some distance yet
little stTingeTs and feeders of ore are al
ready beginning TO make their appear
ance. so ore in quantity is likely to come
in long before the objective point is
reached This tunnel cuts the ore bearing
zone above at an additional depth of
about 600 feet. and when the goal is
reached a world of fine ore should, and
will. be available"
The development of the mine is being
personally lOked after by David Scott. a

ly interested in the property, and Mr.
Davis states that it is worth while to
visit the property and see how well every
thing IS being done.
