Scientists Listen to "Conversation" of Ants

Two scientists Of the University OF
Pittsburgh recently perfected an ap-
paratus for detecting the sounds Of
underground communication among
ants.
A block OF wood was placed upon
the diaphragm Of an ordinary tele
phone transmitter, which In turn
was connected through batteries and
amplifiers to a pair Of earphOnes
When the termites crawled over the
block of wood the transmitter was
agitated, resulting in sound vibrations
which were clearly heard by the lis.
teners at the 1leadset.
When the ants became excited over
something or other their soldiers were
found to hammer their heads yigor-
ously on the wood This action could
be clearly seen and heard ut the
same time.
The investigators found that the
ants could hear sound vibrations In
the air very poorly or not at all. but
: were extremely sensitive to vibrations

OLD DOCTORS IDEA
IS BIG HELP TO
ELDERLY PEOPLE

In 1885, DR.. Caldwell made dis
covery for which elderly people the
world over praise him today!
Years Of practice convinced him
that many people were endangering
their health by a careless choice of
laxatives. So he began a search
for harmless prescription which
would be thoroughly effective, yet
would neither grippe nor form any
habit. AT last he found it.
Over and over he wrote it, when
he found people bilious, headachy,
out of sorts, weak or feverish;
with coated tongue, bad breath, no
appetite or energy. 1t relieved the
most obstinate cases, and yet was
gentle with women, children and
elderly people.
To-day, this same famous, efec-
tive prescription, known as DR..
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, is the
worlds most popular laxative. It
may be obtained from any drugstore

 No clews and nothing else, eith- er,p retorted the inspector. Jack Winslow's so-called workshop hadn't a stick of furniture in it, not even a chair.

 Did he have a stroke?"
 NO AS soon as he got some whiskey aboard he was all right. Lambert also declared that Jack S laboratory was fitted up for experi- mental work. It's damned fishy to my way of thinking, Thorne."
 Tt is agreed Thorne thought fully. Why put a lock on the door of an empty room?"
 And some one damned the lock
