Some Iodine Facts

The general family or garden"
idea or tincture Of iodine is that
it Is a dark fluid, rank Of odor and
making brown stains on skin or
garments, but useful to relieve severe
pain in the chest or chilblains, for
which purposes 1t is painted on
with a camel's hair brush, which
usually gets lost after one using! It
has also the property of rotting out
the cork Of the bottle containing it.,
and of evaporating itself wickedly,
SO that when used without caution
it will be strong enough to take the
skin off the unwary patient!
These things are true; but some
thing can be added to them. The up
todate druggist will now sell tine
ture of iodine put up in bottles with
rubber corks, so that the rotting does
not occur. But it is always wise
to dip the top of the bottle, stopper
and all, into melted paraffine, or
seal 1t with sealing wax freshly,
after each using, if evaporation Is
to be entirely prevented and leaking
made impossible.
But 1t was very skilful dentist
who opened his patients eyes to the
value Of iodine in certain ways hav-

His Fathers Son
Is Young LafOllette

Madison, Wis, Oct. 4 (AP)-Rob-
ert M LaFollette, Jr. 3o-year- old
Republican nominee for United
States senator, enjoys campaigning
as we'll as his late father.
Already experienced in the steer
ing of political campaigns, he
takes a delight in the tours that
candidates make, particularly by
automobile. If young Bob has a
hobby, it is driving an automobile.
Young Bob followed his fathers
career closely. Characteristic La
Toilette mannerisms are employed
to some extent by the son, although
his platform style differs somewhat
from that Of the senator
The first important appearance OF
young LaFollette in the political
spotlight was at the Cleveland con-
ference in 1924, where he delivered
his fathers speech accepting the
presidential endorsement of the Con-
ference for Progressive Political Ac-
ton.
Unusual bonds existed between the
father and son. In 1918. when Bob
Junior was critically i'll. Senator La
Toilette familiarized himself with
the dietary and other treatments
and helped administer them. On one
occasion, at least, the senator held
Young Bob in his arms until the
crisis was passed.
Illness, from which Bob apparent
ly recovered with robust health. was
responsible for the interruption of
his university education, and re-

to disinfect and to check bleeding of

lutte 1t one-half with pure grain al
chohol for use at home on the gums
or the inside the mouth. 1t is a
clear germicide and puts a stop to
Inflammation almost magically. To
apply to cankersore, or a spot ac-
cidently "bitten," use a tiny swab,
made by twisting a bit of absorbent
cotton around the end of a clean
wooden toothpick or matchstich. Sat-

and touch the sore spot well with it
every half hour or SO. For the

will have a label, For external use

with the little swab, as described, for
no appreciable amount can possibly
be swallowed. If it is desired to use
the iodine without dilution, get the
dentists assent to it first. And new
er forget that iodine which loses
bulk by evaporation (from standing
partly or entirely uncorked) loses no
atom of it's strength, which is, there
fore, concentrated in the liquid that
does remain.

In God Lies Secret of
Happiness, Says Minister

Chicago, Oct. 4.-(AP).-The Sc
cret of carefree life Is to put II
in line with Gods purposes, declared
DR.. Henry Howard of Melbourne
Australia, In an address on Don't
Worry" opening the nineteenth sea-
son of the Sunday Evening Club.
"Christ's cure for a worried life
is explained in His words: Seek We
first the Kingdom of God and His
righteousness and all these things
(what you eat and drink and weary
shall be added to you,'" DIR. How
ard said. Everyone who has stood
up to life has felt it's worry, stress
and strain. But the way out from
worry does not lie along the line OF
escape from work.
1.-THE birds and flowers to which
Christ referred as carefree, are
among the busiest of Gods crea-
lures. The word translated toll
does not mean work but work plus
worry. First of all stand right with
Him. This will swing life into har-
mony by putting it on the rails of
Gods permanent way, and every
thing life needs will come along the
lines of fulfilled relations to Him as
Master and Lord"

Sturdier And
Better Craft AS
Catastrophe Result

Washington, Oct. (AP)-De-
struction Of the Shenandoah will
point the way Immediately to sew
eral important changes in dirigible
construction, in the opinion Of Ralph
II. Epson, former international bal
loon champion and now chief
engineer of the Aircraft Develop
ment Corporation.
He and others Of the Corporation
told government officials they were
prepared to build a dirigible of
lessons which he said should be
learned from the story of the Shen-
andoah. The next dirigible. he said,
should be covered with thin. light
metal instead of fabric. should have
a much greater diameter compared
to it's length, and should have its
control car fastened more securely
to the frame.
1.-THE Shenandoahs loss Of life was
not large relative to the total num-
Der on board, and the fatalities
would have been almost eliminated
had the control car been more rigid
ly attached to the hull said Epson.
THE fact that the airship broke in
two Is an equally direct result Of its
excessive slenderness. 1t used to be
thought that a long pencil shape was
necessary for speed. but recent
studies and experiments show con-
clusively that air resistance can be
reduced with more compact shapes.
The most improved hull shape has
only one-third the Shenandoah's
length, compared to its diameter
Experiments also show that it is
possible to make an airship COM
pletely stable.
Improvements in stability alone
would greatly reduce the require
ments for safety-valve capacity. al
though there Is no good reason for
not having plenty of safety valves.
Another important requirement is to
allow plenty Of pressure range from
valve operation. The Shenandoah
could stand safely a pressure of only
10 millimeters of water or about one
one-thousandth of an atmosphere.
Airships can now be built to stand
many times that pressure.
Perhaps the greatest disadvant-
age of the Shenandoah was its fabric
cover-easily torn. inflammab BILE,
loose and tapping when dry. strain
ing the framework when wet. soak
ing up thousands Of pounds of water.
and soon worn out. Before long this
kite construction will be thing of
the past, replaced by metal clad air
ships, with rigid metal covering.
1.-THE faults of the Shenandoah are
no discredit to the men who design
ed and built her. They took the best
that was available at the time"
