DEVICE MAKES FOR COMFORT
No Longer Need Lazy Man Roll Out
From Warm Bed to start
Fire In Furnace.

Nobody need run shivering to the
cellar in a house which has been
equipped with one of the new furnace
starters. The head of the house stays
In his warm bed and sets the furnace
to heating the house by merely press
ing push button at his side. Or, II
If he is given to oversleeping, his alarm
clock will perform the same service
for him, says an exchange. The ap-
paratus for regulating the furnace con-
sists of a weight attached by ropes to
the damper and drafts, light strip
of wood to hold the weight, two mag
nets, an armature and pulleys to les
sen the rope-friction. The strip Of
wood which holds the weight is wide
at one end and pointed at the other.
The pointed end rests on a heavy strip
Of soft iron which moves on two tin
rails. When the push button In the
bedroom is pressed circuit is closed,
and the two magnets draw the piece
of iron, or the armature, from under
the supporting strip Of wood, causing
the weight to fall down and pull open
the drafts. An alarm clock may be
used to take the place of the push-but-
ton. The clock can be set to complete
n circuit mt certain hour and then
open the furnace drafts.
