cEYLoN's MANY ANIMALS

The island Of Ceylon, which sent
peacocks, monkeys and baby ele-
plants to King Solomon, for that
monarch's zoo, is remarkable for a
varied and interesting fauna. One
of the oldest of its animals is huge
lizard, called the cabrogoya, which
attains a length of four and one-half
feet. The cabrogoya is a very hand
some reptile, beautifully marked,
and its skin when tanned affords a
tough leather Of excellent wearing
quality and waterproof. 1t is used
for making women's shoes and, with
the idea of introducing it in this
country for that purpose, specimen
hides have recently been sent to our
Department of Commerce by the
American consul at Colombo

chairman Of the section on economic
and social science at the associations

OH Of sassafras, Commercially Vslu-
able, Extracted From Roots
Otherwise Worthless.

Oil Of sassafras, formerly much
used as a blood-purifying medicine,
and now used as hayoring extract,
is Enthusiastically American
product, as are birch and winter
green. About $4,000 pounds of it
are produced every year.
1t is prepared from the stumps OF
sassafras trees, which the southern
farmer is anxious to have removed
from his land. The distillers fur
nish stump-pullers, and the farmers
only expense is the labor of pulling
from the ground and delivering the
stumps at the nearest railway sta
ton.
At the distilleries the stumps are
chopped up with axes and the pieces
are fed into 'shogs" which cut them
into small chips. These are placed
in the distilling tanks. Distilling
takes from forty-eight to fifty-fve
hours and the yield is only slightly
in excess of 1 per cent. The ex-
hausted chips are ground and sold
for use in sweeping compounds.

and one-half times as many, or say
thirty-eight to forty-five on the second,
and twice as many on the third as on
the first, or from fifty to sixty, VIII be
somewhere near right. Then. by re-
moving or adding few turns, as you
adjust your receivers you can finally
secure the very best results. To
mount this coil so II may be used,
the coil or disc with the least turns
or, In other words, the primary coil,
should be mounted rigidly and Inn
movably and should be connected by
means of binding posts to the aerial
and ground wires. The secondary
coll and the ticker coil should then
be fastened to brass or metal strips
about two or two and one-half inches
long, one-sixteenth inch thick and half
an inch wide. One end of each strip
should be attached by small bolts or
screws to the coils and the other end

attached to movable peg or bolt with
a fibre or bakelite knob at the opposite
end. Fig. 48 shows clearly how this
is done. In this way, the secondary
and ticker may be swung back and
forth to cover more or less Of the
primary: but great care should be
used that the ticker does not touch the
primary coil. When the coil is thus
mounted on proper panel or stand,
II should be wired as shown In Fig.
40, and when the whole set is in good
working order and final adjustments
made, 1t should all be enclosed in
neat wooden case with a hinged top or
cover, Fig. so, although, of course,
this Is merely protective measure and
does not affect the working efficiency
of the set. 1t must be clearly under
stood, however. that this type of coil
can only be used In connection with
a vacuum-tube outfit as shown. When
all wiring is complete and adjustments
are ready to be made, connect the
storage battery, as shown; place the
lamp or tube in it's socket and gradual.
ly turn on the rheostat to see If the
tube glows properly. Never turn on
the current to the bulb quickly or to
full power, or the filament will be
needlessly burnt out and wasted long
before its time. Next, connect the
B, Cor dry) battery, the ground and
aerial and, finally, the phones.
In using this outfit, turn on the
bulb slowly adjust the knobs carrying
the coils so that all three are In line |
and then adjust or tune the variable
condenser until the signals you wish |
to hear are clear. Then, by gradually |
adjusting the movable coils, you can
cut out interference and also make the |
signals, music or other sounds louder |
When the two movable coils are entire. |

not difficult to make loose-coupled

MOVING WITH A MOTOR

One of the interesting applica.
tions of the self-moving motor is to
the lawn mower. This ingenious
machine rests on three rollers,
which serve both for carrying the
engine, the cutters and the driver,
and for smoothing and leveling the
surface Of the lawn. A four-horse-
power gasoline engine is employed,
and all the movements of the ma
chine are controlled by means of
two hand-wheels placed in front of
the drivers seat.
