THE STORY OF
ASBESTOS"

A great number of people are under
the impression that asbestos" is
manufactured material
Asbestos is a mineral that is mined
in open rock quarry fashion and is
found in vast quantities in Canada and
some parts Of the United States, but
the Canadian asbestos is found to be
OF the longest fibre and greater strength
and best for commercial purposes than
that found in this country. Compared
with other minerals the aggregation
Of unique properties possessed by as
bestos is unparalleled. Wood burns,
asbestos is unchanged by flame or by
temperature Of 1900 degree fahrenheit.
Stone disintegrates--asb defes ero-
sion. Steel rusts, asbestos is immune
Asbestos resists wear and the action OF
oxygen and acids, is a non-conductor
Of electricity, and insulates against heat
or cold
Today an audience sits in a. crowded
theatre. 1t faces curtain with the
word Asbestos" on it, spelling to them

Had someone championed asbestos ear

sight to realize the possibilities Of this
mineral, the world today would be
further along. The Chicago fire might
never have happened, indeed, It is
possible that a few years hence the

FREEDOM FROM
LAXATIVES
Discovery by Scientists Has Replaced
Them.

Pills and salts give temporary re-
lief from constipation only at the ex-
pense of permanent injury, says an
eminent medical authority.
Science has found a newer, better
way-a means as simple as Nature
itself.
In perfect health a natural lubricant
keeps the food waste soft and moving.
But when constipation exists this nat
ural lubricant is not sufficient. Medi-
cal authorities have found that the
gentle lu~bricating action of Nujol most
closely resembles that of Natures own
lubricant. AS Nujol is not a laxative
1t cannot grippe. 1t is in no sense a
medicine. And like pure water it is
harmless and pleasant.

of the air between the airplane wings and

1t is estimated that as great as 10 per
cent. can be added to the speed of the
plane if you are within ten feet Of the
ground, so the logical thing to do is to
fly as low as possible without actually hit
ting. 1 flew the Pulitzer race at approx
imately ten feet. On the other hand the
lower you get the greater the danger of
hitting and crashing and you have but
to close your eyes to imagine the re-
at this tremendous speed. To add to the
danger the plane will not fly level. If
you could control the plane at this speed
all would be well and there would be no
danger, but the controls must be so sersi-
tive in order to control the ship and whip
it about the turns at high speed that when
travelling along horizontally it is impos-
sible to eliminate the slight up and down
movement or weaving" This is so
marked that it can be readily noticed
from a half mile away, and while ten feet
makes no difference if you are two thou
sand feet high it literally makes "a
worlds difference when you are but ten
feet high.
Then. too, all your time cannot be given
to maneuvering the ship. In driving your
automobile you must occasionally glance
at your dashboard to look at your instru-
ments, and in the plane you have almost
the same instruments as well as few
extra ones. Your air pressure must be
kept at three pounds, your oil pressure

SAN Francisco, CAL. Oct. 30.-To pilot

flying new and extremely fast planes;
