PROBLEM is SOLVED.
Italian Inventors Discover Means of
Independent Wireless Communica tion.

Paris, Nov. 23.-Bellini and Tosi,
Italian scientists. who with the sane
ton of the French government have
been conducting experiments in Wir"-
less telegraphy for the last Is months
on the coast of Normandy. announce
that they have solved the problem of
independent wireless communication.
This result they say, has been secured
by the means of two rectangular
aerials fixed at right angles and so at
tached to the apparatus for reception
and transmission as to permit the
transmission of unequal currents. BY
the simply law of mechanics these two
sources unite and
produce an electro magnetic field and
the HertZian waves are projected in a
single vertical plane which can be al
ternated instantly by means of the
Bobine device.
The inventors say they have picked
up messages at will from every Eng
lish wireless station and from ships
at sea. and that they have transmitted
messages from Pourvil!e to Havre and
other points without the waves being
perceptible at the other stations lying
Just off the line of transmission. They
assert that their system insures abso-
lutcly Independent communication and
opens up immense advantages in the
use of wireless biography
Among these are the determination
by triangulation OF the exact position
of "a ship in distress; the position and
speed of hostile squadron and the
reading of secret exchanges between
friendly fleets and armies.

How Quality is Reduced

1t is just a question Of evaporation. One
third of the water of raw milk can be taken out
by evaporation Or twice as much water can be
taken out. The resulting product Of both proc
esses will look and taste much alike
But stop and think of the difference in cost
Realize how it will be when you come to dilute
the milk for use
Is it not perfectly plain why some brands of
milk are urged on you by manufacturers as
"Just as good as Van Camp's"? Don't take
some other brand and think it is like Van
Camps Evaporated Milk

LYDIA e. PINKHAM

No other medicine for Woman's
Ills in tho world has received such
widespread and unqualified en-
dorsement as has Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound, made
from native roots and herbs.
No other medicine has such q
record Of success for woman's dis
eases, or such hosts of grateful
friends as has Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound.
For moro than 80 years 1t has beep
the standard remedy for feminine
ills. Inflammation, liberation, and
consequent Spinal Weakness.
Ithas relieved more cases Of Back
ache and Local Weaknesses than
any other one remedy. It dissolves
and expels tumors in an early stage
of development.
Irregularities and periodic pains,
Weakness of the Stomach, Indges-
ton, Bloating, Nervous Prostitution,
Headache, General Debility, quickly
yield to it; also deranged organs,
causing pain, dragging sensations
and backache. Under all circum-
stances it acts in harmony with the
female system.
1t removes that wearing feeling,
extreme lassitude, "don't care "and
swami : to be left alone" feeling,
excitability, irritability, nervousness,
dizziness, faintness, sleeplessness,
fatulency, melancholy or the "blues."
These are indications of Feminine
disorders, which this medicine over
comes as we'll as slight arrangement
of the Kidneys of either sex.
Women who are sick and want to
get we'll should refuse to accept any
substitute for Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound.

The Difference

The difference is in the richness, for after
purity, richness controls the value of milk.
The manufacturer of some other brand may
have told your grocer his brand is as rich as
Van Camps. But is it so?
Just now the United States laws don't protect
you and your grocer against weak, Evaporated
Milk, because the standard has been relaxed.
The law is not enforced. There is much com
petition and great temptation to reduce the
quality SO the wholesale prices can be reduced
Van Camps Milk has not been reduced in
price (your grocer viii tell you, that and we
positively guarantee you the quality has not
and will not be reduced.
Quality is what To,: must have and We know
it is wise to give it 70 you.
So quality is We. you can depend upon in

APPEAL FOR RESCUE HOME.
of the Evening Star:

To the Editor of the Evening Star;
The people of Newark who desire the
betterment of our city should look into
the work that is being one at the
Rescue Home. Between 300 and 400
! men have peer housed each night this
winter, and many women and children
have been cared for in the Woman's
Home, next door. Never in it's entire
history has there been so great a de-
mand for food and shelter. and the re-
sources of the home have been put to a
severe test to take care of the appli-
cants.
Usually there is a let up at this time
of the year, but now, instead of this,
the congestion is growing worse. Yes
terday che chapel was packed to the
doors and many were turned away who
could not get in. Each night every po-
lice station in the city sends it's quota
of applicants. Men come to the home
saying that they have had nothing to
eat for two or three days, and that they
will be forced to steal unless helped
soon. These men are all taken in and
provided for. They are not tramps.
The tramp gives the Rescue Home a
wide berth. He doesn't lii the wood
| pile there.
Undenominational services are being
held eash night. The men flock in
and because of the food and shelter
they have received are open to the
truth. There could be, and there ought
to be, a continuous revival ut the home
In the meetings now being held by the
Rev. DR.. Gearhart men are coming tc
the altar every night. People whf
want to know for tn smselves about this
really great work should by all means
come and see for themselves. Yours
respectfully, G. Az SIMMONS,
superintendent Rescue Home.
