Chronic Constipation.

Perhaps you have never thought Of
it, but this disorder is due to a lack
of moisture in the residual matter of
the food. If you will drink an abund-
ance of water, eat raw fruits and take
lots of outdoor exercise, you may be
able eventually to overcome it entire
ly. In the meantime use the most
mild and gentle laxatives. Strong and
harsh cathartics take Zoo much water
out of the system and make a bad
matter worse. Chamberlain's Tablets
are easy and pleasant to take, and
most agreeable in effect. Give them a
trial.

TreatiseS on Religion, Astronomy; in
fact, the whole constituting library
that ran the entire gamut of human
knowledge.
On Shelves; on top of his desk;
srewn about ON the window sills,
and the table, were wonderful geo.
logical specimens, scientific instru-
ments, motion picture machines, as
Economical instruments and things so
wonderful that my average intelli-
gence could not grasp their signifi-
canoe. Just moment we stayed in
the study and then he took me into
the shop below. l was amazed. There
were lathes as small and as fine as
jeweler uses and others large enough
to turn a moderate sized cannon, bor
ing mills, punching machines; in fact,
everything that goes to make up the
necessary equipment for modern

An individual power plant in the
rear, operated the dynamos for gen.
Grating electric power. In the base
ment was handy brass and alum
mum foundry and a complete photo
graphic laboratory. There were bars
of iron, steel and brass, ingots of
aluminium and copper, coils of wire
and castings large and small stacked
in orderly array.

master introduced as mice man"
We returned to the study-Mr. Bull
lock waved me to chair, sat in his
own swivel chair; benightly smiled at
me across the table and asked: "Well,
what do you think of it," tried to
tell him what l thought, but the only
question: What do you manufacture?
and still smiling, he answered,
Nothing" tried to wheedle out
of him just what he was working on,
but was unsuccessful.
He always countered with the sug-
gestion that we talk about something
of more interest. Then, asked him
about himself-to give me sketch of
his life. What he gave me, l would
not call sketch, because it was mere
ly, so to speak, a line,-"I was born
in England, brought up in Trenton,
have lived in Cleveland twenty-five
years, am forty-one years old and an
inventor; not very enlightening to
say the least
He is not discourteous; in fact, he
is just the opposite. He is wonderful

with illustrious scientists who have
come thousands of miles to view this
appliance. They came as scoffers and
left proclaiming the wonderful pos
sibilities of the invention itself and
declaring that its inventor, Arthur R..
Bullock, is one of the greatest living
scientists.
1t has always been claimed. by the
most eminent authority, to be abso-
lutely impossible to accomplish what
he has done. and yet he has accom-
plished it. 1t has taken nine years Of
strenuous work, but he has done it.
1 have talked to him since and to
his chief assistant. His assistant
tells me of times when Mr.. Bullock
worked for seventy-two hours at a
stretch, of others when he barely ate
for days with the exception of MUNICH
ing on cracker: of other occasions
when in the wee small hours of the
morning he has awakened obsessed
with an idea and rushed to his lab
oratory. and called his assistant about
him and started experimenting along
this new line of thought.
Sometimes he ate his Tuesday
breakfast at Friday noon, and oft
when engaged in some intricate ex-
pertinent or calculation he has worked
the clock three times around and
then slept for few short hours
crumpled in chair or thrown full
length upon work table.
That any man could have crowded
into forty-one years, the work that he
has done; or acquired the knowledge
that he has, seems absolutely miracu-
lous. Few people know; in fact, I
didn't know myself until I was told,
that his is the man who invented the
spark plug-the first man to CONNER
cially ignite gasoline engine. For
that the entire world owes him
thanks, because without the present
electric ignition, the internal com.
bustion engine could not have been.
The acetylene gas light that you
used to use on your bicycle and is
still used by hundreds of thousands
Of miners and the enormous gas
search lights that used to ornament
the front Of your automobile were
conceived in his brain. He was large
ly instrumental in developing the pres
ent method of acetylene welding and
loaned his aid to the development Of
the artificial ice making machine,
and yet he is no different than the
ordinary mortal. He loves a good
story and he knows how to tell one
and he laughs heartily. He finds time
for the vaudeville show, for the grand
opera, for the finer drama, to fish,
hunt and to boat; the only difference
between him and other men is
that while they are willing to work
eight or nine hours day, he is will
ing to work twenty-four, and IL neces-
sary to forget that there are such
things as days and nights.

OuI Ou Ldhc dNcuuS, III OlcNelduu,
in the midst Of the finest residential
district, half hidden in grove of oak,
stands house about which there
hangs a shroud Of mystery. In fact,
the newspapers for years have dubbed
it "The House of Mystery" and the
owner of it as "The Wizard of Lake
wood" 1t is of solid concrete con-
struction, reinforced with steel; the
windows are heavily barred and a
veritable net work of electric wires
enmesh it.
Nobody is allowed even to ap-
proach it at night. 1t is guarded by
a pack of vicious bull dogs. You can
stand across the street in the day
time and see several of these dogs
peeking inquiringly over the parapet
of the roof. At night, as you pass, re-
gardless of the hour, a light is shining
in the upper window, and if the cur
tains are raised you will see young
ish looking man bending over and
intensely studying some mechanical
device. No noise emanates from the
building excepting the chug chug of
the gasoline engine that turns the
huge dynamo which generates the
electricity that seems to be needed in
vast quantities.
The house is shrouded in silence
as heavy as the mystery that sur.
rounds it. There has been a great
deal Of speculation as to what is 60
ing on within it's four walls. There
are numerous employees, but they are
silent as tongue-clipped Malay
slave.
Numerous attempts have been made
to interview the master of this in
stitution and but few have been sue
cessful; in fact it is very hazardous
to attempt it. If you are successful
in running the Gordon of bull dogs,
your approach is Immediately sig
nailed within the building by the ring
ing Of bells. You mount the front
steps and press the electric button
and automatically the massive steel
door swings open. You smile and be-
gin to congratulate yourself at how
easily it all has been, when you Ae
confronted with another steel door,
upon which is neatly printed sign
telling you to push button at your
right hand-you do; and presently a
slide in the door opens.
Nothing is seen, but face as un-
concerned and as non-committal as
that Of the Sphynx.
You are curtly asked to state your
business. If you say that you wish to
interview the owner, you are politely,
but firmly informed that he grants NO
interviews. If you have something to
sell. you are requested to leave your
card and mail your catalogue. If
your merchandise meets with their re-
Quirements. they will probably pur-
chase 1t.

nate, as carried with me letter of
introduction and other credentials

was cordially and courteously re.
ceived. AS stepped within the inner
portal, Mr.. Bullock met me; shook
hands warmly; smiled graciously
and led me upstairs into his private
study. Here l found myself in a

walls stacked high with scientific
volumes intermingled among them
