In 1911 / made my first tuie on a
new principle There was absolute
vacuum in the tube, and l got the cleo
irons out of the cathode by means of
applying heat to it. With the combi-
nation of the heated cathode and the
extremely high vacuum, the electrOns
would fly to the anOde, or target,
where they were given off as X-rays.
'In 1913. Coolidge, ~ this country,
applied the same idea to the tube now

New Method Discovered.
1.-TWO years ago l discovered a new
method of effecting the release of the
electr0ns from the cathode. This
method has nothing IN common with
either of the two cider ones. l start
ed the electrOns from cold, unheated
cathode in the presence of high cleo
tro-static field. This actually pulls the
electrons out of the cathode. The sc,-
ond distinctive characteristic of the
new method Is the shape Of the ca

edged one, on the theory that the lines
of electric force are concentrated on
the sharp point or edge OF The
cathode. This proved to be the case

Dr.. LilIienfeId Discovers Principle
That Puts RoentgenoIogy
on New Plane.
EXPERTS PLEASED With IT
Scientists Who Have Experimental
With New Tube Believe With Doc
tor LitienfeId That It Makes
Rcentgenoloay Exact Science.

New YOrk.-By the invention of an
X-ray tube based on comparatively
simple principle, rOentgenOlogy prom
ises, for the first time since R0entgen
discovered the mysterious rays that
bear his name, quarter of century
ago, to be an exact science. The in
ventOr Is DIR. Julius Lillienfeld, pro-
Leipzig. He is also inventor of the
A-ray tube that has been in general
use in Europe for the last decade, and
which from now on will be superseded
by his more recent discovery. Ex-
perts who have experimental with it
believe as he does.
Doctor Lillienfeld is in New York,
having arrived from Europe a few
weeks ago. He has already given a
public demonstration Of his new tube
in the presence of Prof. George Pc
gram and Professor Davis at the de-
partment of physics of Columbia uni
verSity and before the New York
Roentgen society.
Doctor Liilienfeld explained the
principles of his invention to a Times
reporter. He said his discovery was
not only of interest to the medical pro-
fessiOn and physicists, but to makers
of wireless and all audiOn apparatus
and simplifying devices.
In order TO explain the principle Of
this new tube" said Doctor LiIiienfeld.
1T will be necessary to recapItuIate
the history of X-ray tubes and to tell
the manner In which X-rays are gener-
ated.
What Elections Are.
Let us begin with the eleetron: 1t
Is the smallest known component of
matter and Is always associated with
an unvarying unit charge of negative
electricity. The atom Of hydrogen is
the smallest atom known. Yet an
electron Is but 10000 part of the hy-
drogen atom. These eIectrons are al
ways In motion. 1t is supposed by
some that chemical atoms consist of
collections of electr0ns having orbital
motions in a sphere of positive cleo
1AihNuLOh. OlllSIS dSCTlDS them 10
disturbance of the ether.
AN electron striking any matter,
target or surface produces X-rays.
The electrons must have speed, and,
indeed, they move with incredible "a
pidity. They are negatively charged
particles of electricity. There are
three factors, therefore, connected
with the production of X-rays. They
are electron, motion and the target"
Doctor Lillienfeld pointed to a knife
blade.
THE electrons associated with that
piece of metal" he continued, "are be-
meath its surface and are retained
there by some superficial force. To
produce X-rays we must get the cleo
irons out Of the metal through the CO.
operation Of some additional force.
ROentgen used gas molecules, which
were imprisoned In his glass tuae i'm
a partial vacuum, to get the electrons
out Of the metal, which, in this case,
was the cathode by which the electric
current leaves, in contradistinctiOn to
the anode by which the electric cur
rent enters, vessel. The molecule
OF gas impigned on the cathode free

And Lucy was very happy,
Susy Sore Throat was taking a day
or so about leaving. She knew she
had to GO but ii took her little time
to pack up her bag of horrible mean
little belongings.
And, while Susy Sore Throat was
leaving, nice visitors came to see Lucy.
A most attractive little toy wood
bunny came. His ears could be moved
up and down and most rOguiSh look
he would have when one ear was up
and the other down.
Lucy gave him chicken broth and
he was extremely pleased.
If he had not been afraid his wooden
face would have cracked he would
surely have smiled. For II was
pleasant indeed when one was only
q little wooden bunny rabbit to be
given chicken broth.
1t was most superior chicken broth,
too. Oh, yes, for It had been made
for Lucy and was made so as to give
her lots of extra strength.
Besides the toy bunny a rag doll
came to see Lucy. Yes, a very lovabIe
sweet rag doll came to visit her.
She wore a little knitted hood on
her head and a little sweater and q
knitted scarf to keep her warm.
And she had a pair Of warm knitted
shoes. She wore her outside jacket
too over her sweater, and she took
along her little apron, so she could
wear that when she played so as not
to hurt her good dress.
Oh, yes, the rag doll was going to
play with Lucy and have an excel
lent time.
Then many members of the game
family came to call on Lucy. They,
too, came ready for play. Yes, there
is nothing in the world that a game
Is more ready for than a good play.
Then people came to see Lucy, too,
and congratulate her on the fact that
the TOnsil Twins and Adenoid
Cousins had left.
A lovely gray felt bunny and a
brown felt monkey always were with
Lucy. They had always belonged to
her and, though new visitors came,
they did not leave her. The monkey
put his arm around the bunny and
with his other arm on the pillow by
Lucy he looked most comfortable.
He hadn't left her when she had
gone to have the Twin TOnsils out. He
had been such a comfort. OF course,
when they were actually to be taken
out he had to stay behind, but he
was with her just as long as he could
be and he joined her again as soon
as he could.
"Well," he was saying to the gray
rabbit, I'm laughing up my sleeve"
