As I am a children's

wonderfully. I was
hardly able to do my

began taking it, and
now I am a strong

able to do all that
and go out nursing besides. I have
also used the Saqative Wash and found
it beneficial."— Mas. G ertrude L. S tew ,

Great writers have had “ artistic con
science" to a degree that sometimes
caused them painful labors. In 1706,
when Joseph Addison, the English
poet and essayist, was undersecretary
o f state he was given as a matter of
official business the task of writing to
Hanover that Queen Anne was dead.
He found It so difficult to express
himself satisfactorily that the lords of
the regency were obliged to employ
Southwell, at thnt time one o f the
clerks.
For hours Addison had
struggled In attempts to draft a suit
able message, but the last one seemed
as Inadequate as the first, and In de
spair he cast It after Its predecessors
into the waste basket.
Southwell stated the simple fact, as
he was ordered, in the ordinary lan
guage o f business, and It Is said he
then boasted of his superiority to Ad
dison in having readily done that
which Addison atte'mptlng to do hud
failed.— Kansas City Times.

Broadcasts at W ill.
By C A R L H. B U T M A N
In the Chicago Dally New«.
Washington.— I f a new crystal de
tector recently patented as a tele
phone attachment is put on the mar
ket, many funs may return to the
delightfully cleur reception and sim
plicity of operation afforded by the
first type of radio receiver, Literally
it amounts to a pocket crystal receiv
ing set or, if desired, an adjustable
and perhaps more efficient tube receiv
er which may be attached to any desk
telephone and used to listen to local
broadcasts, utilizing the regular tele
phone receiver.
Patent No. 1,622,355, Issued to G. F.
Mitchell of Washington, and as yet
unassigned, covers a* simple means of
constructing a crystal radio receiver
readily attachable to an ordinary tele
phone. Its use may depend, however,
upon securing the permission from lo
cal telephone companies. An exam
ination of contracts may prevent its
general use, although it is said not to
interfere with the ordinary use of the
phone.
Device Is Compact, Simple.
The device Is exceedingly Interest
ing, compact and simple. It curries
out the scheme of using the lines of
the telephone company as an aerial
for broadcast reception, but in addi
tion permits the use of the telephone
earpiece Itself. Its adoption elimi
nates, therefore, the need for an
t ¿rial, head pliones, extra wiring, or
any modification of the telephone cir
cuit beyond simple connections with
the conductors. It Is portuble and ad
justable to any phone In a few sec
onds.
The apparatus consists of a hollow
box or housing, about the size o f the
vertical piece of ordinary telephone
standard, to which It Is attached by

A vuriuhle condenser having 43
plates can be easily made Into a tan
dem condenser, compost'd of two 17-
plate sections, says a writer In Radio
News. The com/enser used for this
purpose should be one of the type
which Is held together by three bolts,
so It can be taken apart. Remove
these bolts, being careful not to bend
the plates, and cut the long bolts In
half with a hacksaw.
Before the condenser Is taken apart
It Is best to measure the exact dis
tance between the two end plates, so
that the bakelite strips can be cut to
the exact length. This 's necessary
because the distance between the bear
ings of the rotor must be kept the
same. In 17-plate condensers there
will be 9 stator plates for each sec
tion. Since the rotors o f a condenser
In a R.F. receiver are connected to
the “ A—" lead, the rotor need not be
separated.
Assemble the two end plates and
place them on the table, at the same

are bolted on each strip and then to

Aurora Affects Radio

Tandem Condenser and
How the Part Is Made
During the Arctic expedition with
MacMillan, Austin C. Cooley, radio
operator on the Bachetn, had ample
opportunity to ohserve the effect of
the northern lights on radio reception
"A t limes." he says In Radio Broad
cast Magazine, “ signals seemed fall 1 y
good, and then they would fade out
completely. On one such occasion I
went on deck to Investigate. Never
before had I seen such a violent and
brilliant display o f northern lights
Sometimes we were completely sur
rounded by the bright blue hnnds of
aurorn. and slrenmers from all around
the horizon would shoot up to the
zenith, making a complete nmhrella of
aurora
In places the bands were
fringed with dark red.
"For three hours or more I kept
running up and down the companion
way taking notes on the aurora and
then listening to the radio. Later 1
made other observations. I am thor
otighly convinced, after going over
these notes, that a definite relation
does exist between tbe aurora and
radio conditions. All these tests were
made slightly below the 40-meter
band. In the data collected, there np
peared to be a rather definite rela
tlon between barometric pressure
mirages, aurora, magnetic storms, and
radio fi.dfng. The data are by no
means complete, but the observations
aubstnntlate tbe following stafementa:
1. Mirages and aurora only occur
with heavy air pressur®.
2. The relation between the aurora
and radio fading depends upon the
following: (a ) Formation o f aurora
and Its location in respect to the ap
