THE HUMAN BODY AS AM ELEC TRICAL MACHINE. One does not fancy the human body as an elecliic dynamo, but if llie heat ..ml muktular energy are expended by an average man of sedrntary habit were converted into elect tic unit, he would find himself in possession 01 (Mine a valuable as-et. It is proved that a man tisrs up about two and one-half kilowatt hours of el-.ctric en ergy in a working day. Approximate ly one hall of t)i:s amount it u d to l.crp tlie temt'rraturr of the body ciiw -taut, white the other half ts expended in niiiM-ular energy This amount of electric1'" may not ccm great, but w hen one enntidrrs the things that can be done wlun tt i efficiently applied, the power 01 thr Liiman body 1 clearly seen. Two and one-half kilowatt hours of electricity tit siifiicit-nt to maintain four 25-watt tungsten lamps of 20 caudltpowcr each for 25 hours; or heat an electric flatiron for 6 hours: run a newing ma chine motor fur H'r hours; beat an electric toaster for 4 hours; an elec tric beater for I hours; an e!:ctrir curling iron for 100 hours; run a large (an for 3- hoursv or warm a chafing dith for hours. All t!ii is accomplished withoti' voluntary effort, and merelv comet in tt e course of the day's work, and floes not rcpre-eut the energy of a I 'boring man. It is an atounding revelation r the eifictrticy and endurance of the human machine. Now when one sers a fat n toil rg along on a hot day, hr can real ize that electrical energy is being gen erated and think of ti e many tilings to which it tui'ht be aoplied. Mm 11 the fat man were aware of his own ibdily as 4 an electric dynamo, he would ardently wish that he could be used to run a large fan that would yive him relief from the heat of the city pavement.

A rnarshniallow roast appeals to every woman with a swee.t touth. An electric toaster stove affords the most convenient .nd s;ifest method of pre paring such a fca-t. Nearly every one remembers the burned fingers or flushed face one alwavs acquired try ing to brown the marshmallows be fore an open fire, but with an elec tric stove there are no burned fingers. Here the heat is localized, and this is a great advantage. Instead of send ing a goodly proportion oi the heat into the room, all the heat is concen trated, leaving tlie surrounding atmos phere cool and pleasant. Eudgr may also le just as easily made on an electric toaster stove. Boil one cup of milk and two cups of siuar in a saucepan placed directly 0:1 the toater stove heater. Add twj squares grated chocolate or five table spoons cocoa and boil until a few drops of the mixture will harden in water. Turn off the current, add a tablt-spoonful of butter, and flavor with vanilla. Then beat until the fudge begins to sugai. and pour out into a buttered pan. Mark into squares. A horse power is a mechanical term and is the energy required to raise .1.1,UX pounds one foot in one minute Expressed ,iu electrical terms it is equal to 74V) watts or approximately :liree-foiirths of a kilowatt. To get the best lit: lit at the least cost utilize all the li jht you have, not wastiiiK any of it. , In an experimental plant Hamburg will try to obtain power from the ebb and flow of the North Sea tide.
