Rarer Metals Used.
Many of the other rarer metals have
been made to serve the needs of the
time. The metallurgist has found, for
instance, that selenium is a better
conductor Of electricity when exposed
to light than under other conditions.
This knowledge has enabled him 10
perfect a light buoy for the naviga-
tor which is almost automatic. This
light consists of an acetylene gas
tank and an electrical sparker oper-
ated by selenium cells As soon as
the sun ceases TO shine on these cells.
u,
the supply valve automatically opened
and the light turned on. When the
sun comes up next morning and shines
on the cells again the light Is auto
mattcally turned off. Selenium also
has been made to operate the most
complete burglar alarm in existence.
A burglar with a dark lantern is al
most certain to direct the rays Of his
lantern upon the selenium of the
alarm system The moment he does
so it sets a large gong ringing and
automatically lights every gas Jet in
the house.

uses through process of extracting

Dearest of Numsies ::


Dearest of Mumsies:
TN HANKS for your sweet letter.
l know, dear, just exactly what
you mean when you remind me
of my love of making people like me,
only you called it flirting, you naughty
Mumsie.
But I did not flirt with Mr.. Sinclair.
I would not do such a thing now that l
am married woman. I simply made
myself agreeable to him as 1 would to
any man who happened to sit next me
at dinner.
Bobby ought to trust me- 1 would not
dream of being jealous if he sat next an
attractive girl at dinner and seemed to
be enjoying himself.
When we were first mar ried we talk
ed that sort of thing all over and
agreed that we would never be silly
enough to doubt each other, and 1 for
one mean to live up to it 1 shall never
curtail my husband in any normal
pleasure.
We are invited to the Greys for the
weekend. 1t will be great fun. think.
as we will be a large party of congen-
ial people Bobby and l will motor
over.

So Dad did belong to several clubs
when you were married and you did
not mind his going to them. Well,
Mumsie, of course I don't really mind
Bobby's going to the club, only one
night last week he had to stay in town
for dinner and then he went to the X
club and did not come out home until
the 1928 train.
I was all alone, and I am afraid 1
was a little cross when he got home.
1t was the first time he had gone near
a club since we were married. but 1
thought that he would be satisfied
with me and not care for clubs for a
while at least.

home at Thanksgiving. You see 1 still

But the four men playing cards in
the corner were deaf and blind to all

American, with clean shaver lips and
a cigar fitting upwards from the COR

Filipino dark haired and with liquid
black eyes. The other two were Eng

LIQUOR QUESTION
IS MAIN ISSUE

Portland, Ore, oct. 27.-The pres

from now on until election the liquor
question will be the political bone of
contention. AS i'm other states, wo.
Tcn ard c6ildren have enlisted for

banner, and parades and demonstra-
tions are of almost daily occurrence.
The "wets" are by no means idle and
are confident OF winning the strug
gle. although they do not underesti-
mate the strength Of their opponents.
Besides the constitutional amend
ment TO prohibit the sale of liquor, the
voters will pass on an initiative bill
having the same object and an amend.
ment giving cities and towns control
over the sale of liquor.
Thirty-two measures i'm all are up
for decision this fall, including a wo.
