Good Work of Wireless.

Broadcasting, which has become al
most mania in England, has been
applied to novel purposes in the last
few days. At midnight the Manches-
ter station sent forth an appeal for
volunteers for a blood TRANSMISSION to
save the life of man dying in hos
pital after the amputation of an arm.
Within an hour four men arrived at
the institution to offer their blood but
the patient had died in the interval.
One of the volunteers Travelled five
miles. A few evenings ago a woman
residing in country town which has
no telephone or telegraph service at
night, was brought to the bedside of
her son. who was dying in London
The woman's neighbors had heard the
call sent out for her by wireless.

MORE IN LIFE THAN MONEY
Writer Admits That His Rules for Liv.
ing May Be Odd, but He De-
fenda Them Ably.

Do you find your mind dwelling a
great deal upon money, upon the MAX
ing of money, upon the spending Of
money? don't know whether my idea,
my policy, my practice regarding this
matter is wise or not However, it has
worked out to my satisfaction and is
not going to cause any regrets at the
close of the chapter. very early
made up my mind how l would act in
regard to money making and money
spending. l said to myself: II am 60
ing to make all the money can hon.
estly, and shall spare no effort to in
crease my usefulness, and as a corol-
larry, my earning capacity. / am going
to spend what / need to spend and
spend it neither stingily nor foolishly,
but in rational, sensible way And
then am going to let it go at that
Whether / build up fortune rapidly
or succeed in saving only slowly, l am
not going to worry one iota."
The result was that rarely let my
mind dwell on the subject of money.
found myself becoming more and
more interested, as l grew older, in
what could accomplish, in what could
put into the world, and less concerned
over how much 1 could have in return.
To make the confession which follows
will probably damn me as a business
man, but the truth is that repeatedly
forgot to go and draw my salary, and
was surprised to find two or three
checks handed me by the cashier in
stead of one check-with the result that
the cashier finally hit upon the plan
of mailing me my salary weekly! Let
me make another confession, also
very unbusinesslike one, fear: / new
er kept regular tabs on how much
money l had in the bank. 1 knew. of
course, in general way about how
rapidly or slowly l was getting ahead
Of my expenditures and once in
while would inquire as to the exact
status. 1
1 don't like people who are contin-
ually thinking about money and con-
tinually talking about money. Money
isn't life; money is only by-product \
Of life. The main thing, as see it, is
to develop your abilities to the fullest
extent, apply them day by day with
all possible diligence and intelligence,
honestly earn as much as you can
spend prudently, and, as your circum-
stances improve, more and more gen
erously and unselfishly utilize the sur
plus as profitably as you know how.
Then forget the money end of life and
devote your mind to useful effort.
And the chances are it will all come
out right in the end.-B. c. Forbes in
Forbes Magazine

Accident Resulted in Invention,

A brick fell on the head of Charles
Fl. Brisbin during the great San Fran
cisco earthquake. 1t hurt. So Brisbin
invented the earthquake proof brick,
resolving that if he ever happened to
be around another earthquake the oc-
currence would not be repeated. His
brick, which is being manufactured in
California and AriSona, is concave on
one side and convex on the other. The
bricks fit into each other. Less NOR

BAD COMPRESSION IS
HUGE THIEF OF FUEL
Faulty Running Of Engine Wastes
Much Gasoline.

Thousands of gallons of gasoline are
wasted every day by motorists because
of the inefficient operation Of their
engines.
An important detail to watch to keep
the engine running efficiently is the
compression. A motor with faulty COM
preston may appear to run fairly well
when the car is being driven at rea'
sonable speed or when it is working
hard. Lost compression shows up
when the car is being driven at q com.
paratively low speed.
Under either of these conditions the
engine will run with an irregularity
that makes the car jerk or jump in
stead of running steadily, as 1t should.
This indicates that there is consider
able loss of power and that much more
gasoline has to Je burned than when
the engine is developing its full power.
In fact, gasoline mileage may be cut
nearly in half through compression
loss and still the engine may continue
to run fairly well, according to the
ideas of an amateur driver.
If an engine is not running well and
compression loss is suspected, the
simplest way to detect it is to use the
crank and turn the engine over by
hand, and thus feel the compression
on each individual cylinder.
You will nearly always find that
some pistons will go over compression
much more easily than others; and
this means that, somewhere there Is
leak in this cylinder.
The number of miles which car
should run without having the valves
reground varies greatly, depending on
oiling and other engine conditions.
With the average car under normal
running conditions, however, 1t is prob
ably wise to have the valves ground
at least once every 5000 to 10000
miles, depending on the operating con-
dition Of the motor.

Why Suffer From Rheumatism?

Do you know that nine out of every
ten cases of rheumatism are simply
rheumatism of the muscles or chronic
rheumatism, neither of which require
any internal treatment? The pain may
be relieved by applying Cha.nberlain's
Liniment, which makes sleep and rest
possible, and that certainly means a
great deal to any one afflicted with
rheumatism.
