Radio Terms Defined.

Element-as used in radio this
means one OF the parts inside
vacuum tube. The three-element
tube is in most general use today.
The three elements are plate, grid
and filament.
Primary Circuit-The aerial or
open circuit This circuit in the
simplest receiving sets consists Of
the aerial, primary inductance coil
and ground connections. This cir
cult. IL tuned, oscillates with the
same frequency as incoming radio
wave trains.
second Circuit-The closed cir
cult. This circuit must be tuned to
resonance with the primary circuit
for the best reception of signals.
The primary circuit being tuned to
the frequency of the incoming wave
train. and the secondary circuit in
whole receiving system Is in reson-
ance WIN tn6 uistdnl tTdnsiHlNNei'
The practical effec. of this on the
radiophone set is the reception of
music or signals The operation of
tuning to a particular wave length
involves both primary and second
ary circuits, in a double circuit
system
Tuning Cola single coil COM
bining the primary and secondary
windings on one core. Such a coll
is used in a direct coupled circuit,
where the aerial and what is ex-
planned above as the secondary CIR
cult have a direct wire connection.
Tuning with such a coil Is made
from taps lead off the upper and
lower halves of the coil or by slid
ing contacts which cut In or out
a certain number of turns of wire.

lead-in to one end of the antenna not
to the middle. for such connection
gives the advantage of greatest ef-
fectlve length.
Where They May BE Put.
4. The antenna may be put up be-
tween two houses; from chimney to
chimney; from chimney to roof door;
between wash lines on roof; from roof
or window to tree or fence; from
one window on the top floor Of an
apartment house to another win
dow lower down: from one win
COW at one end of a flat to an
other thirty or forty feet or more
to side.
Some radio enthusiasts have had
very good results by connecting to a
metal bedspring, to the electric door
bell wires, to wires run around the
moulding near the ceiling OF a room.
In fact, almost anything may be used
for an antenna, II your set is suf-
ficiently sensitive and IL you are near
to a powerful broadcasting station.
With the usual small crystal set.
an outdoor antenna is. however. al
ways recommended. Sometimes, IL
your aerial fails to give satisfaction,
try changing its direction. This oc-
casionally helps considerably.

MRS. CASE TALKS ON new
WAY TO STOP BAD COUGHS

Wonder Capsules-a good. strong
laxative-and a bottle of Hypo-
Cod. The Capsules I'd take at
once to relax the muscles In my
throat and Bronchial tubes and
thus stop the cough in a iny-
and they will surely do that, az
proven in hundreds OF. cases where
nothing else would. Then tonight
I would start taking the tonic and
a good laxative and go TO bed
and keep covered up SO l would
sweat real good. The Capsules
stop even the worst coughing mt
in about fifteen to thirty minutes
and keep the contracted muscles
relaxed for several hours, accord
ing to the many folks I've talked
with. and. you get a good nights
rest. The laxative cleanses the
system and the Hypo-Cod. which
Liver extractives, etc, is just what
the syste m needs to bui d,
strengthen and help throw of the
cause. A bottle OF the Adams
Wonder Capsules last several days
and they are harmless, so I'd take
them with a swallow of water
any time / had a notion. and es-
pecially each night before retiring
until the whole bottle was gone.
In my next talk l want to say
something about thin, skinny. frail
girls and women and about those
nervous. unstrung. weak folks
who drag around half sick all the
time.

Acoustics Fascinating Study.

Acoustic effects in studios main
tained for the artists appearing on
radio concerts has become a fasci-
mating study. AS was discovered
when the piano was first used in
making phonograph records. the
piano sounded tin-panny. This Is
true Of certain brass Instruments.
However. by properly equipping a
room 1t is possible to absorb over
tones and to amplify subdued tones
to the proper extent. In the larger
broadcasting stations studios are
equipped to take the maximum ad-
vantage Of all tones played Or sung
to the extent that the sound Is
transmitted, and received by the
distant listener-in with the same
effect as originally given. While
there are greater difficulties in the
way Of the radiophone broadcast
than the phonograph manufacturer
because Of the sensitiveness of the
acousticon or other apparatus
needed, the system now worked is
thoroughly efficient.
The Washington herald., 1922-06-15

Important as the correct connec-
tions of your radio set may be. Of
equal value for good reception is the
installation of your antenna in the
best possible manner. The accom-
panying chart explains some of the
more common and effective methods
of putting up your antenna.
Note that the antenna may be hori-
zontal. vertical or diagonal to the
earth. For average crystal receiving
sets the length may vary from rs
to 80 feet, with lead-in wires. which
will bring the sum total to not more
than lis feet. Note the following
facts:
Protect Your Wires.
1. Keep the antenna and lead-in
wires from to feet away from
the building. II erected on a roof
place the wires on poles at least six
feet high. II running from the house
to a fence or to a tree. connect your
insulators three to five feet away
from the building and fence.

for receiving. but IL this is not pos
