This, according to her husband, the
Rev. C. V. Sheatsley, is the solution
of the now famous furnace mystery
which came into being last Monday
night when the pastor found his
wife's remains smouldering in the
furnace fire box.
From his experience as mission
airy in India, where it is the custom
for Hindu women to cast themselves
upon the burning funeral pyres of
their husbands the minister believes
that it would not have been physical

miniature inferno.
"Those familiar with violent in
sanity tell me-" he said, "that GER

from religious zealotry, often leave
the body totally insensible to pain.

Asked for further details of his
theory, Rev. Sheatsley

strength for loud-speaker operation
at the time the signals are detected.
1t is necessary, therefore, to use
some means Of building up electrical
impulses to the required strength be-
fore they are made to actuate the
loud speaker. which changes the cleo
trical Impulses into sound impulses.
The best means which has been
found thus far to accomplish this end
has been that OF step-by-step or cas-
cade amplification in which the re-
ceived electrical impulses are passed
from one step or stage to another, in
order to be amplified a certain degree
in each succeeding stage until the
required strength is obtained.
Action Of Transformer.
The device which actually accom-
pi1shes the amplification Is the vacuum
tube of each stage; the transformer
merely acts as what might be termed
an "introducer" in that it takes the
current flowing in the plate circuit Of
the preceding stage and introduces it
into the grid circuit OF the next stage
of amplification.
The procedure, however, is not as
simple as 1t might seem at first sight,
since the action is not accomplished ID
merely by tapping off tho current in
tube and leading the current into the
input circuit of the next tube.
In accomplishing this transforms
tion Of the current from the plate cir
cult of one stage into the input cir
cult of the next stage, several i'm
portant functions are performed by
the transformer. These functions and
the manner in which they are per
formed will be taken up in tomo:-

The Theory. Selection and Use Of
AudfO Frequency Applying
Transformers. Part L

There are many instruments which
can be inspected and whose good and
bad points can be determined to some
extent upon careful examination of
the construction of the instruments
Audio frequency ampIifying trans
formers, however, do not fall in this
class and the only way in which a
ciencies of various types Is to use
around.
Since it is impossible to give
comparative statements OF the rela-
tive merits of various makes OF
Instruments in these columns, it is
well for the radio buyer to consider
several well known facts about
transformers and transformer manu-
facturers before investing in any
given make Of transformer.
In the first place, regardless of all
the knowledge you may have on the
theory and operating OF transform
ers. it is rather difficult to see, espe
cially now when many such trans
formers are neatly encased in metal
shells, whether or not those good
points of design and construction
have been incorporated in the instru-
ment.
Buying q Transformer.
The first thing to consider, then, in
the selection of a transformer is the
reputation of the manufacturer. This
is not very difficult to do II you have
been reading the advertising columns
of the newspaper radio section and
the advertising columns OF the va
rious radio magazines.
The largest advertising campaigns
are not always carried on by the
manufacturers Of the best devices,
but the general rule of good material
begets volume of business and great
er possible expenditures for adver-
tising purposes generally holds good
and you may use that as a guide.
Now let US consider the function
Of an audio frequency amplifying
transformer, the characteristics re-
quired to make it perform that runc-
tion and the manner In which it
should be used to have 1t perform
that function to best advantage.

sibie to get signals of the required

authors, aroused little enthusia SIN
