WOMEN need SWAMP ROOT

Thousands of women have kidney and
bladder trouble and never suspect 1t.
Women's complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in a healthy con-
dition they may cause the other organs
to become diseased.
Pain in the back, headache, loss of

symptoms of kidney trouble.

Naturally. all on board were agog to
learn what the envelope contained.
Bess was especially and admittedly
excited.

She found the book, but she also found.

dressed to herself in a handwriting
that she did lot recognize. 1t ran as
follows:
Warn Captain Bunker to keep spe-
cial watch over his Instructions. An
effort is likely to be made to find them
out in advance. probably today"
The note bore no signature. Bess
read the words again. Then she sat
down and stared at the paper. Was
1t a hoax? she asked herself. Why
should any one ant to learn the
contents of the instructions in advance
of their formal %opening2 Who could
want to do such a thing?
Warn Captain Bunker" said the
note. But should she do It? Would
she not make herself ridiculous by do
ing 1t? Would the writer be watching
TO laugh Mt her? Such a note seemed
like Harry's idea of fun.
After a while she decided TO go on
deck and see If she could find any
clew in the expressions Of her fellow
passengers. AS she passed Harry's
stateroom the sound of a mans and
a woman's voice within 1t, engaged in

The Fundamental Principle of the
WHyemeter.

The wavemeter performs most
important function both in reception
and transmission of radio waves.
In transmission it enables the op-
orator to tell the wavelength to
which his transmitter is adjusted
thus making it possible for him TO
within his wavelength band while
In reception IT enables the receiving
operator or listener-in to tell the
Wavelength of the station which he
Is receiving, or to set his receiver
to given wavelength.
The principle Of operation of the
wavemeter is one of the simplest III
radio theory.
IL is based on the law of relative
transfer of energy between resonant
and uOn-reSonant circuits.
i is we'll known chat if two cir
cults consisting of induCtance and
capacity are placed near each other
and high frequency oscillations are
generated in one of the circuits, oS-
citations of the same frequency viii
be generated in the other circuit if
the coils OF both circuits are placed
in inductive relation to each other.
The amount of energy transferred
from the circuit in which the osciI
lations are generated A to the second
circuit l. depends on the distance
between the two circuits or coils;
that is. the amount of coupling be
tween the circuits and also on how
closely to the same frequency the
two circuits are tuned.

substituting adjustable inductances
such as tapped coils or variometers
and variable condensers for the
fixed constants.
If the two coils are placed close
together in inductive relation to each
other and oscillations are generated
in circuit a, energy will be trans
ferred to circuit B and the ammeter
connected into circuit Il will show
IL reading, indicating the strength
Of current flowing in circuit B. AS
the inductance and capacity values
Of circuit Il are adjusted the read
ing of the ammeter will vary, show
ing that for different adjustments of
the constants, the energy transferred
to the circuit varies. The constants Of
circuit should be adjusted to the
point that gives the greatest reading
on the ammeter. When that point Is
reached it shows that circuit b is IN
resonance with circuit A. The usual
method is to use q fixed inductance
and variable capacity or Il fixed ca
pacity and variable induction, so that
the wave length reading can be OBJ
tanned with d single setting OF the
dial TO the point which gives the
greatest reading.
Circuits in Resonance.
When this resonance point is
reached we know that both circuits
are set to the same wavelength or
| frequency setting.
If we know the frequency OF the
trauSmitter circuit A we can then
determine the frequency Of the re-
! cciving circuit L or vice versa; if We
are using a standard elaborated cir
cult Il. we viii be able 10 tell the
frequency or waVelength to which
the transmittcr circuit IS adjusted
Circuit + then serves as wave
meter to determine the frequency or
wave length of u transmitter circuit A,
Willie n circuit of the 4 type can be
used to determine the frequency or
wave length to which circuit b is
tuned
In many commercial wavemeters
! the two circuits are combined in one
| instrument so that it can be used to
measure the wavelength of trans
mitter or of Il receiver.

him from 286 meters to 27O.
Result, the telephone wires were
