a dramatic way to publicize his
invention. The idea for a spec

him. Why not light up !

To get permission to do this,
he had to sell the idea TO skep-
teal New York City officials.
Edison invited a group to his
laboratory. When they arrived,
he ushered them into q dimly-
lit room, which was illuminated
by a single lamp. For several
moments. he kept his puzzled
guests In the semi-darkness.
Then he called out:

An assistant threw a switch
and instantly the room was
flooded with light from a score

You can't be bothered with

your advice about the elec-
trical machines so highly adj
vertised for the removal Of
inches around the waist,

they safe? Mrs. X. X. N.
I have never questioned their
safety. And I don't see where
the passive exercise they con-
fer by giving you the electrical
shakes" is-under ordinary cir
cumstances-harmful. AS for
their efficiency, that is another
matter. Personally, I have

Dear DIR. SteincrOhn: 1
have been going to a doctor
for eight months for treat
ment of my prostate gland.
So far the results are very
good. The treatments are
massage, irrigatiOns and cleo
trio pads. Will shots or other
medicines help a permanent
cure? l am IS. l am wonder
ing il all these treatments
will prevent my having a
prostate operation later.
Thank you. J. w.
I know of no injections,
local treatments or other medi-
cines that are guaranteed to
prevent an operation. That
will depend upon the condition
of your prostate gland in the
future. Rely upon a good urol-
ogists's opinion.
