SHOWS SIGHT AND

Two Senses Are Related, Spec
 iaLSt Demonstrates

Montreal Que, June LP-Takng the principle that there is some re- lation between the sense of touch and hearing. Dr. Max A. Goldstein. director Of the Central Institute For the deaf at St. Louis, Mo. today demonstrated how the sense Of touch, which is applied to the blind in the interpretation of braille print ing, may be applied to the deaf. The demonstration was before the Amer ican Laryngological, Pathological and Geological convention here.
 Taking for the demonstration a young deaf girl, Dr. Goldstein used a megaphone, stretching an ordinary wet paper over it to make a dia- phragm, in which sounds were ut tered By her sense of touch the child analysed the sounds produced by the human voice through her finger tips, and then reproduced them.
 As rapidly as the normal person receives the sound through his ears, the girl received the sensation through her fingers. She felt what a photograph needle feels and in- terpreted it in sound" it was stated.
 The system is still in the experi- mental stage, Dr. Goldstein stated.

Reasons Why You Should Install a Quiet May Automatic Oil Burner
 In Your Home
SIMPLICITY


 The Quiet May is distinctive in it's sim plcity, high quality and dependability. Elimination of non essential parts such fire pots which burn out, trip buckets which are a tremendous fire hazard, and other troublesome devices.
 SAFETY
 The Quiet May Automatic oil Burner is absolute ly safe and is carefully designed heating unit and scientifically built by financially responsible manufacturers It is listed standard by the Underwriters Laboratory, Inc, Chicago and is ap- proved by the board of standards and appeals of New York city. Satisfactory installations in thousands of homes, apartment buildings, thea ters. hotels and hospitals testify to the Mays quietness and economical system of heating. The most rigid investigations have been made by architects and engineers and Is highly recom- mended by these organizations.
 ANOTHER IMPORTANT
 FEATURE
 The Quiet May is one of the few Automatic Oil Burners that is made in various sizes to fit the wide range of heating plants. Each installation is individually fitted to its particular furnace boiler from the smallest to the largest building.
New Britain herald., 1926-06-02
OUIETNESS

 The Quiet May Automatic Oil Burner is the quietest high grade oil burner or the market making no more noise than electric fan. The quietness of the May Burner does not sacrifice efficiency.
 EFFICIENCY The Quiet May is the most efficient because it burns fuel oil, using the American and British Naval method which has been in use for over forty years and offers q saving of % high price distillate oils. Of course the Quiet May can also burn the high price dstillatc oils, but why burn the high price oils when you can get higher efficiency at lower cost by burning fuel oils The burner you will eventually buy will burn 2S de- grees Baume oil because there is an abundance Of this grade of oil while the scarcity of the dis tillate oils will make the future price prohibitive for home heating.
 ODOR
 There never has been and will be the slight est trace of odor soot inside Or outside a Quiet May heated home burning the fuel oils

they would stand back of him with

ties and Spreckels and Smith will now

Failed to Shake Him.
The adverse decision in Tacoma was
the first blow at Carson's hopes, but
1t failed to shake him. There came
the day when the United States Cir
cult Court of Appeals awarded him
$5,O00,00O in royalties on his patent,
with possibly $150O0,000 more to fol-
low. The desert rat" and his story
appeared on the front pages of the
newspapers. Callers fiocked to his
lodging and such welter Of mail de-
scended on him that he was unable to
read it. All the luxuries of the world
lay before him. Then abruptly they
were thrust over the horizon once
more for the company petitioned for
retrial of the case. Carson stayed
on in the sailors lodging house.
When the news came to Carson that
the petition for a retrial had been de-

best medicine for him, and to the in
Vulnerable questions that once more
showered on him he returned CHEEKY

the money into charitable works?

ThrashIng Turned Fortunes Wheel
for Henry 0'Reilly, Who Wishes
to Shake Tormento's Hand.

New York. Having made $175,0O0
in three years selling real estate,
Henry O'Reilly Of New York city has
begun an unusual journey with his wife
and baby son, Donald. He has sailed
for his old home in st. Johns, New
foundland, to shake the hand of the
man who kicked him into the lap Of
fortune.
Fourteen years ago, when O'Rellly
was an honor student at st. Bonaven-
lures college at st. Johns, his Irish
blood rebelled at hazing, and he sliced
his hazer across the face with cary
ing knife. For that he received such
a beating that he could not leave his
bed for Two weeks.
That beating, administered by one
OF the students at the college proved

friends and at night went to bed in
their little two-room apartment at
1851 East seventy-sixth street, Mr..
Scrofani in his cot on one side Of the
room, with his beloved banjo on the
wall above his head, and Mr.. Ferraro
on twin cot on the opposite side Of
the narrow room.
In the morning it was learned that
death had visited the room in which
the two old men had lived for ten
years and had taken them as they had
lived together.
When Joseph Scrofani, son OF the
elder man, broke in the door. the room
reeked with gas that continued to flow
from stove that many times had
warmed the two aged companions.

desert Rat Is
Victor in Fight

He would construct a smelling fur
mace which could be charged from the
side. The dream remained with him
for years while he wandered here and
there in the deserts and the mining
settlements, but it was not until 1906
that he was able to perfect his plans.
While working as a chemist and
metallurgist in Denver he invented his
famous "reverberatory furnace for
smelling copper The next move was
to get it patented, but for nine years
this protection was not forthcoming.
In the meantime, filed with the GER
tainty that he had invented something
that would revolutionize the process
of copper reduction, he went from
smelter to smelter, interviewing Of
ficials and mining engineers and plac-
ing before them sketches and plans.
Carson was frank about the inven-
ton, for which no patent had yet been
granted, although his application was
In Washington. He told its inmost
secrets and explained its workings.
And still he was turned away from the
smelters,, unable to interest anyone in
purchasing his rights.
His Patent Granted.
In 1915 his patent was finally
granted and a short time afterward
Carson found himself In New York at
tending a meeting of the American
Society of Mining Engineers. Here
his fortunes took an upward turn.
Some one was reading a paper on
new process for the reduction of cop
per ore. Carson stirred in his seat on
the instant, all his interest aroused.
The process described as already in
operation in the big shelters was the
invention which he had perfected and
unsuccessfully tried to sell for years.
The moneyless, friendless inventor
went out and found that everywhere
his furnace was being used. The
companies refused to recognize his
claim for patent infringements. A
court in Tacoma ruled against him
when he brought suit for royalties.
Carson only smiled quietly and pre-
pared for the next battle.
In the meantime, as he tells it, he
had gone to the offices of one com
pany and had been permitted to see
an official. who shook his head when
Carson explained his motive.
Your patent is absolutely worth
less he says he was told The Off
cial, however, offered him $1,000 for
it, says Carson, who turned down the
offer with promptness, as well as sub
sequent bids of $1,000 and $1,000.
NO" said Carson. ut would be
blackmail for me to accept your money
if my patent is without value. We
shall settle the worth Of it In the
courts. intend to prove to you and
to the world that my process is all
that have dreamed it to be-"
There, in word, is the inside story
of Carson's long fight. He was strug-
Cling for the ideal, the dream of an in
ventor, and he meant that nothing
should check him. He picked up q
humble living In San Francisco as a
mining and metaIlurgical engineer
while still he carried his battle through
the courts. In San Francisco he met
