EconomlzInn EIectrIcItv.

According to the Scientific Ameri-
can OF recent issue, a method OF econ
omizlng electrical energy employed for
domestic heating or cooking is to re-
ceive the energy continuously at a low
rate in a resistance apparatus which
transforms 1t into heat and then stores
the heat for use as needed. In a new
electrical cooking apparatus operating
in this way the heating unit, consum-
ing 500 watts total. or 1900 watt
hours per day of "a hours. serves to
keep a mass of cast iron hot enough
to cook food in ordinary utensils
placed In contact with it The cast
iron block is thermally insulated by
being inclosed in 2 surrounding wall Of
Iampbiack or powdered silica. and a
movable block is arranged to be raised
above the main mass, so as to expose
It's upper surface when cooking is to
be done. The small current consump-
tion. less than that of an electrical fat
iron, enables the device to be oper-
ated on the ordinary electric light wir-

Was polyphemus a corlIIai

A German savant has offered the
ory interesting to readers Of the
Odyssey" He suggests that the one
eyed giant whom Ulysses blinded In
his cave on the slopes OF Mount Etna
was In reality gorilla. The German
contends that the original Of Homer's
story was "reminiscences OF an actual
encounter between early civilized men
and one Of their monstrous prehuman
ancestors. This theory Is in opposi-
ton to that of Grimm, who. held that
the story Of Polyphemus is a mythic
account Of the strife of the elements.
Il has been pointed out that the fact
that gorillas do not now exist near the
Mediterranean Is not In conflict with
the Germans argument. since 1t is
well known that IN prehistoric times
Europe contained many animals that
at present are peculiar to Africa and
other distant lands.
