ELECTION RULING CANNOT
Be NULLIFIED, IS CLAIM

TRENTON, June 9-Beneft of
three months notice before tenants
can be elected by their landlords,
provided for in a 1920 law, cannot
be nullified by the inclusion of a
waiver of the right in the contract
of rental, according to a decision OF
the supreme court. The case decid-
ed is that Of Bella Chauser. who
dispossessed Max Blaux, Of Newark,
in the first district court of that city.
The eviction is reversed on the
ground that although the contract
between the parties stipulated that
only thirty days notice was neces-
sary. under the 1920 law. Blaux
could still insist on three months
notice.
The decision is apparently directly
opposite to one rendered by Chief
Justice Gummere in January. 1921,
when he affirmed a judgment OF
ejectment in the Newark court, when
the same case was presented. That
case was that Of Maria l.. Dana, the
landlord, against Willis L.. Dixon,
the tenant. The chief justice upheld
the lower court in granting eviction
although 1t was assigned for rever-
sal that only n month notice was
given. The contract called for 80
days notice. and the court then
seemed to think that this provision
of the contract amounted 10 a waiv-
ed OF the added protection of the
new law.
The more recent decision is by the
whole court, the case being heard
however, only by Justices Trenehard,
Bergen and Minturn.

Walks a Mile to Work and Can
Eat Anything Set Before
Him Now

when I began taking Tanlac. two
months ago. | only weighed one hun
dred pounds. but ] now balance the
scales at one hundred and twenty
seven pounds and am still gaining"
was the remarkable statement made,
a few months ago. by Daniel Kelly,
Monroe and 10th streets. Kenilworth.
n. J.. Mr.. Kelly has been employed
by the Papyrus Paper Mill Company
for more than fifteen years and is
highly respected by all who know
him.
My stomach had been giving me
trouble for two years and last No.
vember ! went to the hospital where
l was treated for ulcers of the
stomach. On coming out / did not
pick up much and when spring came
on / was still in a miserable con-
dition. / went to work, but was all
in all the time. l would ride back
and forth to the mill and wanted TO
lie down as soon as 1 got back home.
l simply had no energy at all and
didn't even feel like reading the
newspapers. 1 had no appetite and
a little cereal was what kept me
going, so one can imagine how deli
ate my stomach a
THAT tired, draggy feeling was
on me all the time and l had such
terrible heaoaches and dizzy spells
that 1 would have blind staggers.
My family and friends thought I
would never get well. My wife be-
ing a graduate nurse, waited on me
constantly and managed to keep me
going. Finally she read Of the won
derful results a lady whom she knew
received from Tanlac and bought me
a bottle.
well, sir, it just seemed 10 act
like magic. BY the timc the first
bottle was gone I began to feel new
life and energy. l became more
cheerful at my work. My appetite
increased and I began to eat good,
substantial food with no distressing
after effects. 1 have not had a head
ache or a dizzy spell now in two
months and am just brimful OF new
life and energy.
81 walk a mile every morning
and another every evening. and work
in my garden, besides doing my
days work at the paper mill. / have
gained twenty-seven pounds and
people often remark about the won
derful change that has taken place
in me. 1 used to imagine my con-.
was due to malaria and
1t on the place where l lived,
but 1 know now II was all on ac-
count of my stomach. | am as well
now as a person could ask to he
and it's all due to Tanlac and the
care my wife gave me. 1 will rec
ommend Tanlac to anyone suffering
from stomach trouble and a run
down condition. To my mind there's
nothing like it."

The Antcnna
Build your own.

Build your own.
It's the best way TO get on the in
side of wireless.
But instead of working from the
ground up. the-radio enthusiast who
starts to erect a receiving set. must
work from the air down.
As the waves go flying through the
ether, they have to be intercepted.
The anterna-or aerial-does the
trick. 1t reaches out and plugs in
on the wireless line.
The best kind of antenna for re-
ceiving purposes is one employing a
single wire 100 to 1875 feet in length
strung as high as possible. For dur
ability and c~onductivity seven
stranded phosphor bronze wire No.
is is recommended although hard
drawn single copper wire either bare
or insulated. may be employed.
Aluminium wire may be used, but
the other wires are better.
Do not use galvanized iron or
steel on account of the resistance or
fered by these metals.
Your antenna cannot be too high.
The higher you get ii the better. n
good height is 100 feet.
Run the wire between any two OBJ
iects-between the top of your house
and an outbuilding, or from the
house to a tree.
The lead-in should be part of the
antenna.
The ~antenna itself should be well
insulated by porcelain, electrose or
hard rubber i~nsulators.
If you run your aerial between
two buildings. erect poles on each
roof. Run a short piece of durable
cable or strong wire from the poles
to the insulators which are attached
to the antenna. These insulators
should be from four to six inches
long of hard rubber, porcelain or
electrose.
String your antenna between these
two insulators, allowing a little give
for the wind. Make a few turns of
your antenna around the insulator
near the house, and then run the
wire into the house as your lead
in" Be sure that all parts of the
are kept clear of all objects.
Be sure that the lead-in is proper
" insulated as IL is brought into n
house. The first object the antenna
should be connected with is the re-
ceiving set.
If you run your aerial between
the house and a tree attach a ball
anced weight to a pulley between
the tree and insulator.
This is to prevent the swapping
of the a%ntenna during severe wind
The weight should be sus-
pended SO that it will take up a
maximum of Is feet.
With such a construction the
tenna may be connected to any OBJ
ject liable to f1exibility.

YOUR POWERS

Lulu NJ. Cargil, clerk in the New York post office, takes
from Nina E. Holmes of Detroit the title of champion letter
sorter of the world"
Miss Holmes attracted attention by sorting 20,610 letters
in eight hours, or nearly 43 a minute.
Miss Cargill sorts 30,215 letters in eight hours, which is
better than one a second. And she sorted the first $500 let
tiers without pausing. Then she stopped for a cup of tea
Sorting a letter means picking it up, reading the address,
recalling the postal route to reach the address, then tossing
the letter into the proper bag.
Miss Cargill is &c years old. She has been a postal clerk
only three years.
ton of body and mind. A brain that works with lightning
swiftness has automatically perfect teamwork with a body that
perfectly obeys her rapid brain.
The body is a collection of machines, each trying to work
comparatively for the good of all. 1t S a more perfect sys-
tenn of government that man has been able to devise.
Miss Cargill, judging from her work, has what sclen-
lists would cali IAN extraordinary well-balanced system of
endocrine glands"
In the so-called "efficient'' person, the body glands speed
up when needed and slow down when the energy OF the body
is required by the other glands.
In a boy who is growing too rapidly, as a result OF abb
normal activity by the pituitary gland in the brain, the other
glands slow down and surrender part of their share OF the
body's energy. With most of his energy devoted to growing,
the lad is apt to be otherwise languid.
Or, for example, you suddenly are IN danger, which re-
quires a quick use of reserve energy. The word is teie-
graphed through the blood. The message is sent out by the
adrenal glands, which stand guard as a moblllzer OF reserve en-
ergy. Other glands slow down, as If saying, " Ii the adrenais
fail in this emergency, we all perish"
The heart responds to the adrenals and rushes blood to
the arms or other parts of the body that have to meet the
danger. This rush of blood is why ''the face goes white" in
a time of peril.
The crisis met and conquered, the blood rushes back to
normal distribution through the body. The other glands
scome to life.' The sudden change makes the person, calm
in danger, halfcollapse latter it's all over
