Every Druggist in U. S. In
structed to Refund Price
While You Wait at Count
er If Relief Does Not Come
Within Two Minutes.
Delightful Taste, Immediate
Relief, Quick Warm-Up.

The sensation of the year in the
drug trade is Aspironal, the two
minute cold and cough reliever, au.
thoritatively guaranteed by the labora-
tories; tested, approved and most
enthusiastically endorsed by the high
est authorities, and proclaimed by
the common people as ten times as
quick and effective as whiskey, rock
and rye, or any other cold and cough
remedy they have ever tried.
All drug stores are now supplied
with the wonderful new elixir, so all
you have to do to get rid of that cold
is to step into the nearest drug store,
hand the clerk half dollar for bottle
of Aspironal and tell him to serve you
two teaspoonfuls with four teaspoon
fuls of water in a glass. With your
watch in your hand, take the drink
at one swallow and call for your money
back in two minutes if you cannot
feel your cold fading away like dream
within the time limit. Don't be bash
full, for all druggists invite you and
expect you to try it. Everybody 3
doing it.
When your cold or cough is re-
Heved, take the remainder of the bottle
home to your wife and babies, for
Aspironal is by far the safest and most
effective, the easiest to take and the
most agreeable cold and cough remedy
for infants and children.-Adv.)

there are limitations of cost, and also lim-

the field Of radio engineering, it seems to
me, should receive the warmest commenda-
ton of all those who are interested in
American, we'll in human, progress"
The de Forest audon is discussed as
follows by James H. Collins in "The
Saturday Evening POST:
"Some of these days it will be your turn
to listen to the wireless telephone of the
type developed for airplane use in American
war aviation And when it is you will hear
telephone talk at its best for it will be
telephone talk transmitted through the new
vacuum tubes perfected for this purpose, in
stead of the coils and relays of the wire
telephone system. These tubes look like
incandescent electric lamps, about half size
with a complicated arrangement of wires,
grids and plates, instead of the familiar
flament. They give transmission of re-
markable harmonic range and purity.
"'Some day telephony will all be done by
glass bottles,' say the engineers who devel-
oped these vacuum tubes-that is their shop
term for them. And they look forward to
the day when the tubes can be widely ap-
piled to wire telephone systems, eliminate
ing all the relays and like apparatus now
necessary.
This glass bottle is a true Aladdin's
Lamp. 1t grew out of the Crookes tube,
then developed as De Forests audion first

raphy, and presently making wireless tel
ephony possible. 1t is receiver, a trans

with wire telephony, your piano is of

densers. coils, and other semi-mechanical
devices which work imperfectly and hinder
transmission while trying to help. With
these new glass bottles, however, all that

talk by means of the elcctrons and ions.

How Many
Hours a
Day?

-<HE perennial question Glow
many hours a day should be de-
n voted to work." is the topic dis
cussed by writer in "The Lon
aon Illustrated News" who afirms
..Ast from the scientific point of
.:..v much is to be said for the further
,;r,;+ation Of the hours Of work" He
.,.o contends that the kind of work in
au,ped in should more or less govern the
number of hours to be spent at it. AS
he remarks:
where the same manual operations have to
ss gone through over and over again, the
.s,entou of the keenest workman becomes
aulled after time, which varies with the
Individual; and thereafter, without any nee
.ssary consciousness of the fact on his part,
the pace slackens or the work becomes less
accurate Hence, when rapidity Of output
had to be combined with scrupulous accuracy,
as with the turning Of shells during the last
three or four years, it was found that better
results could be obtained by employing three
shifts Of eight hours each than by working
men or women, however willing, for spells
II ten or more hours on end. Taking six
working days in the week, and making no
allowance for Saturday afternoon, this works
out at forty-eght hours per week for each
shift"
Citing occupations that could bear a
longer working period without fatigue,
the writer mentions woodcarving and
painting, which could, he says
aurobably be carried on for a longer period
than eight hours without actual physical
fatigue supervening; because the constant, if
slight, change of attitude and finger play
necessary would prevent any one set of
muscles and nerves from being exercised IN
duly; and, although this could not be re-
peated daily, the difficulty would arise from
the giving out of the workers Imagination
rather than of his muscles. Moreover, in such
a case, the artist is buoyed up with the pleas
ure which attends the execution of all Gre
alive work, SO as to feel fatigue less quickly
than one who is merely repeating mechani-
cal process every minute"
On the other hand, occupations such
as those of engine driver, motorman,
tramcar driver, or craneman should not
be for too long period at time-in
fact, reasons this writer, "an eight-hour
day would be impossible':
ITO take an instance that will be familiar
to most, no captain in his senses would dream
Of keeping q steersman at the wheel for
eight hours at stretch, except in some
extraordinary and unforeseen emergency
Therefore, the conclusion arrived at is
that mo hard and fast line can be laid
down for all trades, and that the hours
Of work which would be light for one
would be excessively hard if always en-
forced for another"
