Electricity to Thaw Ground,

The electric ground-thawing device
used in Alaskan railroad building has
the form of hollow steel pile. This
has sharpened steel point at one end
and a solid steel driving head at the
other, and the hollow body contains
a suitable resistance coil. The point
ed tube is driven like any pile into
the frozen ground to the required
depth. Connection is then made with
q power transmission line through a
portable transformer mounted on n
sledge and a low-volt current of high
amperage is passed through the coil.

only one way to cure Catarrhal Deafness.
and that is by a constitutional remedy.
HALLS CATARRH MEDICINE acts

caused by an inflamed condition of the

When this tube Is inaamed you have

when it is entirely closed, Deafness Is the
result. Unless the Inflammation can be re-
duced and this tube restored to its nor

Madame Grouitch's parent had
broken with his West Virginia sires
when he took up arms for the
North. His own father fought
against him in the army of the
South.
Studied Early Paintings.
After the war, Madame Grouitchs
father wandered from one American
museum to another. At Baltimore
he made an exhaustive and minute
study of the Walters collection.
Afterward, his daughters flair for

These studies began TO reveal to her
the gradual development and per-

real appreciation of drawing came
to her.

Later, she went to University Col

classes of Prof. Gardner. With him
she learned Latin and Greek and
prepared herself for her subsequent

Mrs. Mussey is honorary dean Of
Washington College of Law. the
only woman's law college in the
country. She has started hundreds
OF young women on the road to
professional careers. Her own life
story is a striking example of difi-
culties overcome by hard work and
pluck. When she was admitted 70

lawyers in the country. She has
seen this number increase to $500,

Mrs. Mussey was forced to prac-

military secretary of President An

ing fever while campaigning for

between earning a living at the
customary woman's occupations
washing, mending and nursing-or
stepping boldly into the place her
husband left vacant.
She previously had assisted Gem
eral Mussey in the preparation Of
cases. The routine of an attorneys
once was familiar and she required
only short study period to pass
the District of Columbia bar ex-
aminations.
Instead of suffering through Gen
eral Mussey's absence. the business
grew. Nursed tenderly back to
health by his wife, the general Iounr
