CARD OF THANKS. We, tlm undenlgned, desire in this I manner to thank all who so kindly assisted us with the funeral and burial | <>f our beloved little daughter and granddaughter. The singers for their beautiful songs, the Rev. Ttnkham for his consoling message. And for the I many beautiful florial offerings.—Mr, and Mrs, Frank Allen, Mrs. Mary j Gault. In Memorlam. God took our baby home, We do not understand; Rut we know it will be, better far, To follow His Guiding Hand. H’Tls hard, to say: ‘Thy will be don,’ When we miss her baby face; And long to clasp her in our arms, No one can take her place. ' But we know, she Is safe in Jesus arms, J And that He holds her near His breast; She can’t come back —we'll go to her, And find that Rest, Sweet Rest. —• TRI KAPPA NOTICE. The meeting at the Masonic hall on Tuesday has been postponed until Thursday at 7 o’clock. Mr. and Mrs. Gustave Relnking, daughter, Hulda, and son, Otto, of Union township, were in the city doing Christmas shopping today.

TALKING MOVIES Photo-Phone Latest Invention in Movie World-Sei-entitic Discovery Made ILLINOIS UNIVERSITY “Photo-Electric (’ell’’ Made in Physical Laboratories by Professor Kunz. Urbana, 111., Dec. 17. — (Special to Daily Democrat). —Will the moving picture industry receive a revolutionary addition through a scientific discovery made at the University of Illinois, basic patents for which are held by that institution? It seems possible that his discovery will make the movies of the future talk, so that there will no longer be ‘‘the silent drama.” The scientific discovery is that of an extremely sensitive and relialbe “photo-electric cell,” made about two years ago in the physical laboratories of the University by Professor Jakob Kunz. The incident is a good example of the unexpectedness by which some great discovery may be made years in advance before it can be practically used. The photo-electric cell is a device or turning flashes of light into electric pulses and Is so sensitive that it reacts to light from stars which cannot be seen with the naked eye. Because of this extreme sensitiveness, the photo-electric cell promises to displace the selenium cell which has been used up to the present time in experiments carried on to produce speech accompanying moving pictures. A Swedish scientist lias developed a device which he calls the “photophone” by which such speech is more or less perfectly produced. This is done by having a second film on the same spindle as the moving picture film on which are photographed various curves and openings corresponding to the words which are to accompanying the pictures. A beam of light sent through this film falls upon a selenium cell. The selenium cell depends upon a discovery made many years ago that the metal selenium changes its electric resistance when light falls upon it. It is thus possible to get variations in an electric current by letting the beam of light from a speech photograph film fall upon such a cell. These variations act in a telephone to produce speech. The selenium cell is much inferior to Dr. Kunz’s photo-electric Cell in transforming light waves into electric pulses. The photo-electric cell is not only much more sensitive, but it has no lag; that is, it responds immediately to a light wave even after hours and days of use. The selenium cell is not only not as sensitive, but it has the disadvantage of having this lag, or fatigue. “Dr. Kunz has been working for several years on the effect of light on certain of the alikali metals, such as potassium and sodium,” said the head of the department. “A layer of any one of these metals when in a vacuum or certain low pressure gases gives off negative electricity; that is, a current of electricity can be produced by letting a beam of light fall upon a film of potassium which is properly prepared inside of an exhausted glass bulb. The current passes across the evacuated space to a loop of platinum wire and thus to the outside circuit. While this electric current is very small, it can be amplified by methods which are well known today in elec-tro-technics, and so the size of the current is no detriment to the use of the photo-electric cell. “Just as the little currents, which were set up at Arlington Cemetery on Armistice Day by President Harding’s voice were magnified and reproduced thousands of miles away, so can these little photo-electric currents be magnified and produce sounds in loud speaking telephones.” It is therefore logical to expect that the scientific discovery of a sensative i and reliable photo-electric cell will be used to give us the perfect jihoto-phone > of the future. One large company is j said to be already developing such a I use of this photo-electric cell. TOASTS THE RED HEADS I nit rd I’rexM Staff Correspondent London, Dec. 17—“ The red-haired woman gets them, while the others sniff or go after the henna,” Dr. Josiah Oldfield told the Society of Philology. “A woman, to attract a man, must be a little different from the crowd,” Dr. Oldfield said. "She must be wicked, distinctly talented or must strike some color note. Red hair is the best color note. Os all colors, the shades of copper and red are the most beautifully uncommon. Other women, recognizing the advantage of the red-haired woman in the matrimonial market, either enviously disparage her by calling ‘carrots,’ or I corp her by using a henna dye.’’

PUBLIC PLEASED AND DOCTORS MARVEL AT RESULTS Investigations at One of Our Great Medical Colleges, Prove the Efficiency of a Wonderful New Tonic Food. The Public Health Departments, Health Clinics and the great World War have made startling disclosures of statistics proving that large percentage of children as well as adults who are under weight, run-down, anaemh —no strength, no vitality—are simply under-nourished; or In other words, suffer from malnutrition. Os course they get enough food —but it lacks the vitumines necessary to sustain life. Therefore Dr. Philip B. Hawk, Professor of Physiological Chemistry at Jefferson Medical College, Philadelphia, Pa., was employed by a wellknown firm of Boston Chemists to perfect a Vitamine Tonic Food, known SUSTO, which contains in conventrated form the needed Vitamine* of Rice, Eggs, Milk, Yeast, Beef and Iron, which are lacking in our daily diet, because of scientific milling or overcooking of food. Dr. Hawk made most rigid tests with SUSTO as to its efficacy as a Vitamine health-building Tonic Food The results were marvelous. His report shows that under-weight children as well as a adults increased their weight to normal and strength, energy and health replaced weakness and run-down, debilitated, anaemic conditions. Our local druggists, Smith, Yager & Falk have been fortunate enough to secure the retail selling agency for SUSTO, this remarkable tonic food, for Decatur and this is really the first opportuunity offered to the people of Decatur who need strength and vitality, are under weight, rundown, anaemic, who have under-nourished children or feeble old people, to call at the store of Smith, Yager &. Falk and get a guaranteed strength and l>ody builder that has been proved by the nutritional expert of one of our greatest Medical Colleges, after the severest tests extending over many months. Anyone who will try SIiSTO for a month at a cost of 10 cents a day —and does not feel better in every way—they will return their money. s_s_s_WANT ADS EARN—s—s—S
