were not long in transferring it

beauties.

placed him at the head Of the

mighty busy on the start, he
soon got squared away and the
duties thrust upon him proved
no handicap in the least. Every

dinner immensely. Delicious
fresh picked strawberries and

were shown from cellar to gar

is one of the neatest, cleanest
and most sanitary places that We
have ever had the pleasure of
visiting. No wonder that the
children are so healthy and
strong, scarcely ever needing
medical attention. There is a
reason for this condition, and the
present able management of the
institution are wholly account

are summed up that the girls of

WHERE MOVING PICTURE
SHOWS GET THEIR LIGHT
Mercury Arc Reotifer Changes
Alternating 10 Direct cdneat
ELECTRICITY Is USED
NOW ALMOST ENTIRELY

light moving pictures would be-
impossible. The essential fea.
lures Of motion picture
machine are. first. the reel of
tiny pictures taken on a trans.
narent elm. and serond the
powerful light which projects
these pictures upon the screen
in life.like size. In the begin.
ming Of moving pictures calcium,
oxy-hydrogen and other gas
lamps were used. but a. these
lights were flickering. sallow and
dim they detracted materially
from comfort and appreciation.
The audience left the show with
their eyeballs smarting and their
sense of sight outraged.
Ii was but natural that elec.
tric light should be tried to REM
edy these defects. but even the
powerful alternating current arc
lamps. giving from three to five
thousand candle-power, were
found inadequate. There was
but one lamp best suited to the
exacting needs of the moving
picture machine and that was
the powerful ten and twelve
thousand candle power arc lamp
available only from direct cur
rent. AS most cities and Will
ages where electric lights are
used have only the alternating
current systems these direct cur
rent lamps were unsuitable.
Happily electrical engineers
are ingenious and resourceful
men, and most of the difficulties,
which have from time to time
obstructed their paths, have
been finally surmounted. 1t was
not very long before one of these
engineers hit upon the plan of
utilizing the mercury arc recti-
fer for this DurpOse.
The mercury arc rectifier is a
wonderful little device. All
that can be seen is a peculiar
shaped glass tube about the size
of large gourd in which a pool
of bubbling and boiling mercury
emits beautiful blue-green
light. This device will effective
ly change alternating electric
current into direct current with
very little loss. The current en-
ters the tube in cycles. or sur
ges, flowing first one way and
then the other over the wires.
as often as sixty times a second,
and when it leaves this tube il
is rectified or changed into
direct current, flowing one way
only. This direct current is led
to the arc lamp where it is
changed into a powerful white
light which is the nearest ap-
proach to actual sunshine Of any
artificial illuminant.
Electricity is also used to con- !
siderable extent in modern NOV |
ing picture theaters. The in /
terror of the theater is lighted
with green shaded incandescent
lamps which give a modified 1
light, sufficient, however, to en-. |
able those entering from the
bright light outside to readily
fnd vacant seats. Electric fans
cool and ventilate the buildings
electric cigar lighters are provid-
ed in the vestibules and electric
are used to indicate
the titles Of the pictures. An
electric ozoniler is. also used in
; moving picture theater at
schenectady, N. Y, which keeps
The air sweet and pure.

No Compromise With
 Wrong

Whoever you are anu wherever you are you can't afford to compromise with wrong Just the moment your conscionce-that insistent monitor raises the question of the right or wrong of a thing, just that moment you should stop and consider-not the present profit of the thing-but the right and wrong of it. A thing that is wrong has no value when weighed with character and human happiness. In cold figures it may display the value of a king dom. but if it is wrong the moment it is possessed it crumbles in the hand like Dead Sea fruit.
 There can be absolutely no com promise with wrong. No two ways are given except that one must choose either right-peace and con tentment, or wrong-unhappiness and discontent The one attractive all its length; the other attractive at it's be- ginning. but ending in the Slough of Disappointment.
 Conscience is the monitor placed over our thoughts and actions to tell us when there is a threatened inva- sion of the enemy. When conscience has given the warning it has done its duty. but it often keeps on with it's call in the still small voice" until
 it falls asleep from sheer exhaustion over our persistence in not hearing it.
 Few people would go wrong if they would listen to the warning thus giv- en. It is because they won't heed it that they so frequently find them selves permanently domiciled in the House of Trouble" It is human nature to be headstrong and inn petuous It is human nature 10 want to do the forbidden thing, but it is also human nature to want to do the right thing even when wrong is tug ging insistently at the garments.
 No child ever came into the world bad. Human nature is inherently good. All the attributes of human character are essentially good. It is only after intelligence or the powers of observation are awakened that the conflict between right and wrong begins.
 It is possible for everyone, even though he may have done wrong. tG turn about and seek only the right. The world more often forgives the sinner, though it may not forget the sin, than it is given credit for. The only requirement. is that one turn entirely from wrongdoing.
 Right and Wrong are like two horses starting from a certain point to travel over diverging roads while keeping an identical pace. The longer they travel the further apart they get, and they never. therefore. arrive at a mutual meeting point. In q circus one usually sees an equestrian accomplishing the feat of riding on two horses at the same time. That is, by keeping the animals close to- gether and resting foot on the back of each. But the human being has never been found who could success fully ride Right and Wrong.
 Consequently, the man who seeks d compromise with wrong faces sure defeat He is attempting the impos- sible. There are many other improb- able things he may accomplish, but compromise with wrong is impossible of accomplishment.

USUALLY ONE DOSE WILL
 END THE INDIGESTION
Heartburn, Gas, Dyspepsia and Head ache Vanish, and Your Stomach
 Will Feel Fine

If your meals don't fit comfortably,
 or you feel bloated after eating. and you believe it is the food which fills you: if what little you eat lies like a
 lump of lead on your stomach; if there is difficulty in breathing after
 eating, eructations of sour, undigest-
 ed food and acid. heartburn. brash or a belching of gas. you can make up your mind that you need something
 to stop food fermentation and cure Indigestion.
 To make every bite of food you eat aid in the nourishment and strength
 of your body. you must rid your Stomach of pOisons, excessive acid and stomach gas. which sOurs your entire meal-interferes with digestion and causes so many sufferers of Dyspepsia, Sick Headache Bilious ness, Constipation. Griping. etc Your case is no different-yOu are a stOm- ach sufferer, though you may call it by some other name; your real and | only trouble is that which you eat does not digest. but quickly ferments and sours, producing almost any un- | healthy condition.
 A case of Pape's Diapepsin will cost fifty cents at any Pharmacy here, and will convince any stomach sui ferer five minutes after taking a single dose that Fermentation and
 Sour Stomach is causing the misery of Indigestion.
 No matter if you call your trouble Catarrh of the Stomach. Nervousness or Gastritis, or by any other name always remember that a certain cure is waiting at any drug store the mo- ment you decide to begin it's use
 Pape's Diapepsin will regulate any
 Out-Of-order stomach within five minutes. and digest promptly. without any fuss or discomfort, all of any
 kind of food you eat.

BUGS TO FIGHT BUGS

It is quite possible that anyone who might happen to be stranded in the canons of the high Sierras of Cali fornia. any time between Christmas and Easter, might stumble upon two or three young men whose actions in those almost inaccessible solitudeS would look very mysterious. says the April Technical World Magazine. He would see them gather up great masses of dead leaves and rubbish in places where the snow had melted, site the finer materials into burlap sacks, throw the leaves and sticks away, and then hasten on to new location. If he were curious enough to follow the mysterious strangers, he would find that as soon as the bags were filled they were loaded upon the back of d patient mule. taken to the nearest railroad station. and shipped to Sacramento.
 Inquiry would probably elicit the statement that the young men were from the state bug-house", but the inference that they were escaped lunatics, if natural under the circum- stances. would be altogether wrong
 
 monly applied to the California state insectary at Sacramento; and the methods described are those employ ed by the field agents of the insec- tary on expeditions for the collec- ton of ladybird beetles. These breed in the canons of the Sierras. where they are collected while still dormant in the winter time. Tens of millions of them are shipped to the insectary, where they are kept in cold storage until the melon aphis makes it's appearance in the canta- loupe and cucumber fields of the Im- perial valley or until the peach and apple aphis are reported in the or chards. Then they are shipped to the endangered region. in whatever quantities may be required to meet the emergency; and the doom of the aphid pests is considered sealed.
