Weather Conditions.

CHICAGO, March A piano
contains nearly 700 feet of highly
tempered strings screwed up to
exert a pull Of eighteen tons, Charles
A. Deutschmann, National Associa-
ION OF Piano Tuners, declared.
1.-The 290 or more steel strings are
stretched over a sounding board Of

to 2,400 square inches, according to

mann. Every atmospheric change
affects the sounding board.
When windows stick in wet
weather and rattle in dry, people are
not surprised, but they seem to
think the piano sounding board and
strings are above the laws Of
physics. Wood and metal are
affected in different degrees by cold
and heat so that atmospheric
changes alter the relationship be-
tween sounding board and strings
"A large proportion of the ap-
proximately 100000 pianos in

Your Health in 1926


Use the helps offered by medical
science to prevent disease. You need
never fear typhoid. incubation will pre-
vent it. Your children need never have
diphtheria. Toxin-antitoxin treatments
will safeguard them. Smallpox will not
touch your family if all are vaccinated
when necessary. One by one, dread
diseases are being conquered. In ten years
the tuberculosis death rate has been re-
duced more than one-half. Five years
ago the diphtheria death rate alone was
higher than that today for diphtheria,
scarlet fever, measles and whooping
cough combined.
