on the grid of the first tube, thereby
eliminating the usual potentiometer.
The switch does not vary the fnduc-
tance of the loop. The frequency Is
only varied by the condenser, which Is
shunted across its terminals, the low
er one of which Is connected to the
f1lament and the upper one to the grid
of the first tube.
Other Kinds Of Loops.
Another type Of loop, of the pancake
type, which will afford interesting food
for thought is shown in Figure 3. This
loop was experimental with by 81. G.
Silbersdorff of Jersey City, N. j., and
has the added feature of being able to
not only rotate on its axis but can be
tipped to any desired angle as we'll.
Experiments with the use Of reson-
ance wave coil led up to the loop in
It's present form, and it was found to
have certain defined advantages over
the average loop. 1t seems to at least
partly solve the great summer question
Of signal to static ratio. When tipped
at certain angles the static Is weaker
and the signal stronger. The theory
is as follows: If radio waves travel
parallel to the surface of the earth
and static disturbances travel in a
more or less perpendicular path to 1t
the adjustment Of the pickup coil can
be so arranged to pick up most radio
waves, which is at such an angle that
1t will pick up q minimum of static
waves.
The crossarms of the loop measure
18 inches each and the outer frame
work pieces measure 131a inches each.
Thirteen turns are made, which are
spaced three-eighths Of an inch apart.
C-shaped brass angle pieces are
fastened into the corners Of the outer
frame, which serve to support the inner
crossarms. The entire loop Is tuned
by means of .001 variable condenser.
Still another form Of loop Is shown
in Figure 8. This Is known as the box
type and, while 1t requires more room
to set up, Is claimed by many en-
gineers to be more efficient than the
ordinary spiral or fiat pancake loop. A
good size to use for the broadcast
waves measures four feet on the arms,
the ends of which are provided with
bakelite or other insulating material
in the slots on which are wound 10
turns of loop wire, five on either side
of the lower upright support Like the
other types, 1t is tuned with variable
condenser and is recommended highly
for use with supersensitive receiving
instruments, owing to its large dimen-
sions.-New York Evening World.

Swamp-Root a Fine Medicine

Thousands upon thousands Of women
have kidney or bladder trouble and never
suspect it.
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.
You may suffer pain in the back, head
ache and loss of ambition.
Poor health makes you nervous, irritable,
and may be respondent; it makes any
one so.
But hundreds of women claim that Dr..

remedy needed to overcome such condi-
tions

makes the purchase of more than two
or three transformers unnecessary, no
matter how many different receiving
sets the experimenter may use.
The scheme, as can be seen from
the drawing, consists Of mounting the
transformers upon separate, identical
bases Of bakelite or formica on which
four contacts made from switch stop
pins are fastened. The contacts are
wired to the terminals of the trans
formers. If different makes Of trans
formers are used, be sure the G P B-t
and F terminals are wired to cor
responding contacts on the bases to
prevent reversed connections as the
transformers are moved from socket to
socket.
The sockets consist of pieces OF
formica or bakelite cut slightly larger
than the transformer bases. On each
of these are fastened four binding
posts and four "Rasco Societies.
(small size). If the "Sockettes" can
not be obtained. cord tip jacks which
will accommodate stop pins or the ar
rangement shown in Fig. may be
used.
To avoid placing the transformers in
the sockets incorrectly, do not arrange
the contacts in square or rectangular
formation, but place the primary con-
facts closer together than the sec
ondary contacts.
This Idea is also useful in making
comparative tests between different
transformers, and also the best posi-
ton in the circuit for different radio
transformers,

in the opposite direction from
that of the tram, and thus it
clears each truchload in time
to receive the next load.
The conveyors are from so
to 100 feet in length. They
travel 40 feet a minute and
carry all the precanceled mail
going through the building.
The width of the belt is AZ

capacity af Is pounds per
square foot. This would
amount to approximately 25,-
600 pounds, or 1914 tons per
hour. Two main conveyors
deliver to inclined convey
ors which in turn deliver to
two primary separation units
on the second and third
floors.
The separation unit on the
third floor, which Is 130 feet

ana, Michigan. Wisconsin, Il
linois and Ohio. The sort

Receivers Should Have
Variable Capacities

In sensitive radio-frequency receiv-
ers of the neutrodyne type it is hard
to neutralize them over their entire
tuning range. They will be neutral
lied as a general rule ut about the
middle range, around 300 meters.
When a station is tuned in around
400 meters the naturalization is not
exact, and there is slight tendency
toward oscillation, causing the receiv-
er to be rather noisy-much the same
as regenerative receiver just before
spilling over To be really efficient
these receivers should have variable
capacities, which can be varied with
each and every change in the tuning.

EuIogy of the Dead

The custom of funeral sermons, to-

back to antiquity. Even the primitive

In ancient Greece and Rome the GUS

popular.
