phosphorus for the brain, and, what
is more important, an efficient and
mild laxative for the stomach.
These three qualities have been
found in the banana. especially in the
one called 'Pacifico,' which grows in
Colombia, and the one called De La
Isla, which grows in Lima.
Every morning, two hours before
rising, eat one or two very ripe
bananas-tte peel must be black
and masticate them very carefully.
Immediately afterward drink one
large glass of very cold water. For
two hours afterward lie in bed, which
facilitates the cleansing of the stom-
ach and the assimilation of the phos-
phorus and nutritive substances"

ergy to follow it. The treatment re-
lieves or cures dyspepsia, heartburn

SMOKE NUISANCE
SHOULD BE WIPED
OUT--DR. RAUNICk
Health Department Head Says
Restricting Legislation Should
Be Enacted
EDUCATION IS NEEDED
Many Extensive improvements
Have Already Been Made by
City's Industries

An educational campaign to eradi-
cate the smoke nuisance in Harris
burg, followed by restricting city leg
islation, was urged to-day by City
Health officer ]. NJ. ]. Raunick.
Although the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company and a number of managers
of manufacturing plants in the city
have made extensive improvements,
much more can be done, DR.. Raunick
declared.
Careful study of fuel consumption,
installation of modern boiler and other
heating apparatus, and modern appI-
ances to eliminate much of the smoke,
were some of the remedies suggested
by the health officer.
Railroad officials declare that smoke
inspectors, instructors for firemen, and
educational motion pictures are pro-
ducing the best results for them.
What PennSy Is Doing
William r. Denehey, chief clerk to
William Is. McCaleb, superintendent
of the Philadelphia Division of the
Pennsylvania Railroad, explained the
system now in use by the company.
Educational motion pictures, show
ing how to fire engines properly to
save fuel and cause the least smoke
at the same time, are one of the big
helps for the employees. Locomotive
firing is an important factor for every
railroad company, and the Pennsyl-
vania does everything possible to have
the men fully understand their job
before taking it.
Men are employed to instruct all
firemen how to fire under all con-
ditions. In addition to the instruc-
tors, there are smoke inspectors en-
ployed all along the line. In Harris
burg several are working every day.
Any excessive smoke from careless

MOTION PICTURES ON GLASS

When a cheap, durable, noninflam-
mable substitute for the ordinary mo-
tion picture celluloid film is found, we
may expect to see motion picture ma
chimes enter our homes and take a
place beside the phonograph, states the
Popular Science Monthly for March.
So long as the cost of film is excess
Isive, as it is at present, and so long
as the film is inflammable, as 1T al
ways has been and may continue to be,
it will be difficult to popularize home
motion pictures.
| To overcome these difficulties, G.
Bettini, of New York, has invented
several cameras and projectors in
which ordinary cheap glass plates take
the place of the usual expensive film.
EFor instance, he has evolved a mo-
Ition picture camera that utilizes glass
lplates in place of the usual film; a
motion picture protector for the home
which uses the same glass plates; a
second protector which utilizes cir
cular noninflammable disks; ma
chine which prints pictures on disks
| from standard film subjects, and me-
chanical printer which makes square
glass plate positfves from standard
film.

Washing Won't Rid
Head of Dandruff

The only sure way to get rid of
dandruff is to dissolve 1t, then you
destroy it entirely. To do this, get
about four ounces of ordinary liquid
arvon; apply it at night when retir-
ing; use enough to moisten the scalp
and rub it in gently with the finger
tips.
Do this tonight, and by morning,
most If not all, of your dandruff will
be gone, and three or four more appli-
cations will completely dissolve and
entirely destroy every single sign and
trace of it, no matter how much
dandruff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop at
once, and your hair will be fluffy,
Iustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and
look and feel a hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. 1t is inexpensive and never
fails to do the work.

PNEUMATIC TIRES FOR HIKING
SHOES

Taking his inspiration from auto
mobile tires, and going the ordinary
rubber heel one better, Oscar Mussi-
nan, of New York City, has invented
a pneumatic tire for his own shoes.
The tire" differs very decidedly from
the ordinary heel in that partition
of rubber is built in it half way up
its thickness. The partition thus
forms an air chamber with the bottom
of the leather above 1t, and still an
other one with the ground when the
heel comes down upon it, explains the
Popular Science Monthly for March,
Each of these two chambers is con-
nected with the outside air by a small
opening. When the heel strikes the
ground, the air in the chambers be-
comes slightly compressed, causing the
jolt of the walking to be very greatly
cushioned in a manner very much

Knew a Real Saw Mill,
Girl Artist Gets Prize

Wausau, Wis, Feb. 22.-Because
she was the only competing artist
who knew how to draw a real picture
of a saw mill, Miss Janette Reid
daughter of Judge A. H. Reid, of this
circuit, has won the prize for a new
cover design for the monthly bulletin
of the National Lumber Manufactur-
ers' Association. Miss Reid is a Mil
waukee- Downer College graduate and
now living in Chicago where she has
her studio.
Her design which will be used each
month with a table of contents in the
center, shows a saw mill, refuse
burner and forest background as
they are actually seen in the woods
Other competitors had beautiful pic
lures, but not true to life. wkile Miss
Reid's design was both true to life
and artistic.

ARTIFICIAL FEET OF PAPER PULP

In spite of the fact that there is lit
tie fiction in the stories of the soaring
price of paper, the uses to which this
product is being put are constantly
increasing in number. We have pa
per furniture, paper cloth, paper silks
and clothes, and even paper legs.
Now DR.. Svindt, of Denmark, who
is responsible for the artificial leg of
papier mache, has brought forward a
paper foot, intended to meet the needs
of the crippled soldiers. These feet
are said to be strong enough to with
stand ordinary usage, and they have
the added advantage of being cheap.
A model of the foot is made of wire
gauze, and upon this is poured a spe-
cially prepared pulp which entirely
fills the interstices of the wire gauze.-

Buried in Coffin He
Selected for Friend

Los Angeles. Cal, Feb. 22.-When
Pilocarpo Serrano was believed to be
dying in Patton last October, Julian
Monoreal called at the undertaking
establishment of Lindsey & William
son, Santa Monica, and made ar
rangements for his funeral. Both
men were residents of Santa Monica.
Monoreal selected a handsome coffin
and had a plate suitably engraved
with Serranos name on it.
Within two weeks after he had or
dered the coffin for Serrano, who did
not die as had been anticipated,
Monoreal died in Whittier, and his
body was sent to Santa Monica for
burial. He was buried in the coffin
he had selected for Serrano.

IN WHAT POSITION DOES A RIFLE
BULLET RETURN TO EARTH?

In order to solve the problem, a
special stand was erected in Germany
recently, and experiments were car
ried on along the shores of lake, the
surface of which was frozen. The
ice was covered with strong planks,
as described in the Popular Science
Monthly for March. 1t was shown
that an infantry rifle bullet shot up
ward in n vertical direction passes
downward in the same position in
which it passed upward-in other
words, it came back again to earth
with its bottom first.
Why was it not upset at it's culmi-
nation point? The answer is that the
propelling force ceases to act at the
elimination point. But the twist has
as yet not stopped, and therefore it
starts it's fall with a twist. Even on
impact the twist has not stopped, as
was indicated by the warpng of the
wood hbers in the planking on the ice.

similar to that in which the automo-
bile tire cushions the jolts of riding.
To prevent the air from becoming too
suddenly compressed and so putting
the bottom of the heel out of shape,
the air is allowed to escape slowly
through the openings.

TO NORTH POLE BY SUBMARINE

AS early as 1899, Simon Lake, the
inventor of the Lake type of sub
marine, proposed and planned a sub
marine for sailing under the ice of the
Artic waters to the North Pole. 1t
was realized that this way of travel
ing would save an explorer many ted
ious months and would increase the
assurance of his reaching his destina-
ton, explains the Popular Science
Monthly for March. But the subma-
rine was in its early stage of develop
ment and the carrying out of the plan
never got much further than a few
experiments. The extensive improve
ments in the submarine since that
time, however, have again brought
this matter up for serious considera-
ton. The submarine required need
not be very much different from the
Deutschland, it is said.
