How the Light Meter Works

Most of us look upon the electric
light meter with suspicion and dis
trust. How little this delicate mech
anism deserves such adverse criticism
and calumny is best shown 10y the re
cent reports of the New York public
service commission, which found only
a very few meters running too fast
out of several hundreds examined anC
not few running far too SLOW.
The lcrger a meter is used the
slower it runs. If common steel bear
ings were used they would wear cut
in little time and the friction would
slow up the meter and consequently
the consumer would be paying fcI
only a small fraction of the electrical
energy really used. In order that the
meter shall be accurate there must bt
practically no friction IN the bearing,
therefore the main bearings are all
mado of diamonds and sapphires. The
diamond is the hardest substance in
the world and the sapphire is a close
SNNOiiu' oedt mss Ma ~ VI tI-SSc Pat-
cious stones hare a very long life and
they are the cheapest in the long run.
The tiny gear wheels for the met
are all made by automatic machinery
which turns them out in rapid sue
cession as nearly perfect as human
ingenuity can devise.
Nearly every household stands
ready to convict tie meter of dishon-
esty without a fair hearing and it
must be said in its defense that the
meter is just as honest as it can be
made and when in course of item
the bearings begin to wear and the
friction begins to retard the tiny met
er the consumer really gets more cleo
tr;city than he is paying for.
1t is well enough for the consumers
of electrical energy to bear in mind
that within the iron body of themeter
is a littlemotor which begins to spin
when the first lamp is turned and
continues to run until the last one is
turned off. With every additional
lamp the meter runs faster and,
faster revolving the relentless dials
which point the way for heavy light
bills at the end of the month. By
remembering that the meter is spin
ring and trying to make 1t go as
slowly as possible by not burning any
more lamps than necessary the "a
mount of the bills can be reduced
and the character Of the faithful 1t
tie iron servant kept unimpeached.

TAFT is CERTAIN
Of NOMINATION
Only Thing In Doubt Is Size Of
His Vote at Chicago.
MAY BREAK 1903 RECORD.

Sentiment Growing In Big Republican
States That He Is Only Man of His
Party Who Can Be Elected This
Year-Voters Satisfied With Admin
istration's Policies.
President William II. Taft is on 8
fair road to denomination as the Re
publican standard bearer in the cam
paign Of 1912 With approximately
100 delegates to the Chicago conven-
ton already instructed for him, the
president is more than likely TO break
his record Of 1908, when he was nomi-
mated with 7O2 votes on the first bal
lot in the Chicago convention Of that
year. There is no longer any question
that he will be renominated, and the
only question now puzzling the mana
gers OF the Taft campaign is the com
pleteness Of his victory.
Coupled with the assurance of his
denomination is the growing sentiment
in the big Republican states both east
and west that President Taft is the
only Republican candidate who can
possibly be elected this fall. 1t Will
be recalled readily enough that when
Mr.. Taft took office three years ago,
March 4 last. the great issues of tariff

is meant 10 say that there are more
cases of chronic sore throat TO be
met with every day than the cases
of acute sore throat that may be
quickly cured by the means mention
ed.
In chronic sore throat the regime
prescribed for avoiding an attack,
is absolutely necessary as to sani-
tation, diet, exercise, and all that,
before one can hope to recover The
diet should be nourishing but from
it should be excluded spices and high
ly seasoned foods. Frequent hot
baths and thorough rubbing after
ward, with care as to exposure for
some hours after such baths. When
the case is obstinate, resort to rub
bings with blankets wrung out of
hot water, as so often described in
these lectures. But the hot baths
or hot blanket rubbing should be
followed by a dash of cold water or
thorough rubbing with olive oil or
vaseline, in order to prevent the TAX
ing Of more cold through the relax
ed skin. Use the cold congresses
on the throat frequently and judi
ciously. Avoid hawking, splitting
and coughing. as much as possible
When the voice is affected and there
is stuffed up" feeling in the chest,
apply the cold congresses over the
upper part Of the breast also.
The exercises prescribed for ca
tarrh will be very beneficial in chron
ic sore throat. Persist in this treat
ment, with care and common sense,
and your throat will get well. OBJ

with the alternative Of Change In
administration. q change in policies
and a continuation Of business depres-
sion and general unrest
In estimating the probabilities Of
President Taft's denomination and re-
election it is necessary TO recur only
to recent history The president car
RED every northern state in 1908. Be
tween the election of that year and
1910 occurred the tariff legislation
known as the Payne tariff law. 1t is
a well known maxim Of politics that
that party which reVises the tariff is
defeated at the next election, and the
only exception to the rule il recent
years was the passage Of the Dingley
law, which was followed SO closely by
the outbreak of the Spanish-America
war as to bury the tariff issue in
wave Of patriotic enthusiasm. The
more recent by-elections in the big Re
publican states east of the Mississippi
river, notably in New York. New Jer-
sey and Pennsylvania, have shown a
return of Republicans to the fold and
a restoration of the old time Republic
an majorities. which justiies the pre-
diction that they will be safely in the
Taft column in November. That they
will so unanimously support any other
Republican candidate, particularly If
the third term issue is injected into
the fight, is denied by the best in
formed leaders in those states.
As to the nomination there is no
longer any doubt but that President
Taft will have a majority Of the dele
gates both from the north and the
south. New England will be practical
ly if not entirely solid for him. He
will have sweeping victories in New
York, Pennsylvania and the other mid
die Atlantic states. Ohio has never
yet failed to support q favorite son
candidate or failed to cast its electoral
vote for a Republican candidate for
president Indiana, Illinois. Iowa, Mis-
$ouri Minnesota. Kansas, Nebrasks
