WINDMILL THAT is
NOT At MERCY OF WIND
Diagram Shows the Working OF the
PIan-compete Machine Can Be
Placed In Position at Small
Cost--High Power Made.

When the wind strikes surface in
clined at an angle to the direction OF
the wind the latter tends TO displace
the surface in a direction that de-
ponds upon the degree of inclination.
Upon this well-known principle sail
boats, windmills and aeroplanes are
built. When the wind comes in a
Numerically opposite direction-that
is to say, strikes the surface on the
other side--it tends to displace 1t in
the opposite direction. 1t would
seem, then, to be impossible so 10
place a surface that 1t shall always
move in the same direction, no matter
whence the wind that moves 1t comes.
A French windmill maker has, how
ever succeeded in solving this appa-
rent paradox, and his device is de-
scribed in detail by r. Villers in La
Nature. He makes a horizontal wind
mill with perpendicular vanes and
axis revolved by the vanes without
gearing.
The wind is utilized going and com.
ing" When the vanes are properly
inclined the power produced by this
strange windmill is quite high, and the
wind that reaches nine-tenths of the
wheels diameter is set TO work, no
matter from what direction it is blow
ing.
The firm that is making these mills
delivers one, complete, in France, with
mounting, pipes, pump, etc, for 600
francs, or about $120.
The wheel may be raised or lowered
on its axle by pulleys, and the upper
socket is self-lubricated from a Gov
cred tank OF oil at the very top.
The turning wheel operates the
pumps through an eccentric at the
bottom OF the mast. This eccentric is
most ingenious but simple device
for regulating the speed of the pump
according to the strength of the

a purgative, eat plenty of nourishing
food, remain perfectly quiet and don't

the physicians directions to relieve
the aching. But there is no cure or

your strength. The chief danger lies
In the complications which may arise.

between the shoulder blades to open

rubbed in over the parts until the
skin is red, spread on thiekly and

HOW TO AVOID THE DISEASE.
Evidence seems to prove that this

by human contact, chiefly through
coughing, sneezing or splitting. Soavoid
persons having colds which means
avoiding crowds common drinking
cups, roller towels, etc. Keep up your
bodily strength by plenty Of exercise

all, keep free from colds, as colds irri-
( tate the lining of the air passages and
render them much better breeding
places for the germs.
Use Vick's yapoRub at the very
first sign of a cold. For a head cold,
melt a little VapoRub in a spoon and
inhale the vapors, or, better still, use
VapoRub in benzoin steam kettle.
IL this is not available, use an ordl-

Babes PHOTO FOUND
ON BATTLE FIELD
Returned to Sioux Falls BY the
Finder-Child's Father and
Uncle In War.

Sioux Falls, S. D., Dec. There has
beer sent to the Sioux Falls CONNER
clal club from France the photograph
Of a Sioux Falls baby. The photo was
picked up on the Verdun battlefield a
lew weeks go. The baby is the child
OF Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph Houts, of Sioux
Falls. The mother and babe are spend
Ing the winter at Oakland, Cal, while
Daddy g serving with the American
FORCES in France.
Just how the photograph got to the
place where found IN the battlefield
yet is unexplained. The officer who
found 1t was Lieut.. Thos. e. Cooney, Of
a headquarters company. He found the
name Of a Sioux Falls photographer on
the picture, as well as the baby's name,
and sent it with a letter to the Sioux
Falls Commercial club, in the hope that
1T might be returned to it's rightful
owner.
Last September, before going to
California, the mother took the baby
to the photographers and then sent
one print each to the father and to
Ollie Cannon, an uncle, who also is in
France. AS Houts, according to let
tiers, has not been at the front. but is
back Of the lines, and Cannon, when
he wrote last October 10, was in the
front trenches, it is probable that the
photograph was lost by the latter dur.
Ing the excitement Of the battle.
Joseph Houts, the father Of the baby,
left with the June draft from Sioux
Falls and went across in September.
The uncle, Ollie Cannon, enlisted in
Sioux Falls, October 13, 1917, went to
Fort Leavenworth, Kan, and in March
OF this year ven to France with other
American soldiers. In June he went to
the front. He is a member Of head
quarters company, 30th infantry, and
when last heard from was driving an
auto for a colonel.

We have been on the move. Were

was hard for us to keep up with them
with our balloons. l went over the
top once there. My parachute opened
only half way and consequently I hit
the ground with an awful bump, but
was fortunate enough to pick a soft
spot, SO got away all right. Then we
moved up here and we nave had some
very exciting times. l had the pleasure
OF solng up the other day and about 10
O'Clock l was attacked. The boche put
three holes in my basket, but I was
gone before he did it. Over the top
again. Then 1 came back and went up
again, as my balloon was not burned
n a time. But, what do you think? I
had not been up over 20 minutes when
l was over the top again, twice in an
hour. Guess that will hold me for a
While. Believe me, / am now getting
