Electro-magnefs are much used 10
connection with cranes and other con-
veyors for llftIag heavy pieces OF iron
and steel. The Illinois Steel Company
has a magnet weighing 1000 pounds
which lifts six tons OF hot metal in
eoundries and rolling mills
The power OF the electromagnetic is
regulated by the switch controlling the
current. The magnet is lowered to the
object needed with the current turned
of. when the switch is closed the
magnet becomes active. holds the arti-
cles to be lifted while they are raised
and transported TO their destination.
when they are lowered the switch is
opened and the magnet Immediately re-
leases them. As the operator OF the
crane controls the action OF the magnet
through the switch. this one man can
attend TO all the details OF transferring
heavy metal objects. No assistant is
needed 70 attach them TO the conveyor
or to release them when they reach
their destination.
Another use to which the electro
magnet Is put is IN breaking old cast
lngs so that they be melted and utl-
lied To accomplish this the magnet
Is made TO lift and drop a steel bell
weighing from one to six tons.

CONSULTATIVE WORK Visiting Nurse Association De- cides to Take That
 Up.
TO AID POOR AT HOME
Important Place in Life of COmmu- nity Will be Filled by the
 Organization.

The Visiting Nurse association has recently decided to take up special line of work in which the whole com munity should be interested; the sys- tematic care of tubercular patients. In every large city now organized efforts are being made to stop the inroads Of "the white plague" both for the re- lief of it's sufferers and the safety of the public. If we have eyes to see and brains to think we cannot ignore the importance of this work, and the Visit ing Nurse association must stretch ev- cry nerve to help it on. The immed- fate call for enlarging the staff of the association has come from the needs of the Tuberculosis clinic established at the New Haven dispensary, under pr. Standish, by the New Haven Coun- ty Anti Tuberculosis association. The Visiting Nurse association exists first of all for the relief of the sick poor
 and who can more need the care ot the nurse than consumptive patients in crowded rooms? Many do not know how to take proper care of themselves or OA tIlbI idlllliltS. Nlipb NO NnNt pA " wear, how to occupy themselves, what their dangers are, nor now to get the food, medicines and treatment that they need. Those who go to the dis pensary or the doctors offices are giV- en advice and treatment there; but many of them are foreigners who don't understand the doctors words; many are too ignorant to realize the import ance of his directions; many are too i'll to care for themselves; many have no money for food and medicines
 many don't care Who is going to tell them what they ought to know, and competent and devoted enough to fol- low them to their homes, and with her own hands give them the object les sons they need? The Visiting Nurse, with all enthusiasm, stands ready to do this. and has already started on her crusade Miss Markham has been de- tailed to this special work. and now. through private solicitation and the public press, the Visiting Nurse asso- citation begs most earnestly for the CO., operation of it's many friends and well-wishers Money is needed for the purchase of milk and eggs. the strons and nourishing food when are such essential means towards resisting the inroads of the disease.
