Classified advertising get, results 'orosion of pipe lines Hint carry oil has perplexed scientists for some time, but bureau of stan dards investigators, after a num ber of tests, have announced that they are of the opinion tho action is due lo electricity. Running thru noils where the ground is of differ ent chemical composition and of varying moisture content, the pipe is subjected to the results of a dis charge and a collecting of electri cal current at different points. The earth, in other words, becomes a sort of huge battery of cells form ed by the different soil sections. trie lamps direct their rays where j most needed when repairing tbo ; oar, are not in tbo way and need j no extra adjustment after once put ; on.

A new type of wheel having two ', tires, rum within the other, and said to lie adaptable either to tiki- tor or trolley Cars was exhibited recently. Tbo outer tire is of solid rubber, tho other, inside it. is pneumatic and is Incased In a steel : frame next to the bub. This ar rangement is said to take the strain from the outer tire While the inner one acts as a shock absorber. 1 Punctures are also eliminated. ew D and TO a glorious escape from obsolete fashions To test various theories as to the efficiency of radio waves in treat ing disease, a special apparatus has been devised in Krance. It is so arranged that the radiations may be better directed upon the affected parts and. at the same time, there is a means for measur ing the amount' of absorption. In a test, a coil of copper wire is wound around the arm. leg or other .part, acting as a radio re ceiver. One and one-half parts of borax to a thousand of water proved fatal to mosquito larvae, Cornell university scientists have found. They used it with good results on rainwater barrels, cisterns and other places whero the mosquitoes multiply, and discovered, also, that the borax holds Its larvae-killing powers for a long time. One ex periment lusted nearly two months but the solution did not lose its strength. The Investigators add, however, that the borax should be used only where its effects on- ani mals and on plant life will be of no serious consequence. Among tbo devices being tested by the army air corps for safer flying is an improved altimaler ; that registers the exact distance between the plane and the ground , objects beiow at all times. This I would give a pilot reliable infor j mation us to bis altitude even if1 jhe were flying through fogs or in jdarkness.
