lat? circuit. The limit ts readied hen the plate current reaches the miration point. After this point is <c!ied, further weakening of the uupling cannot inctease the plate curent variations so that the transfer of nerg.v from the plate to grid circuit ow decreases, and any further reducon in coupling will cause such a reaction in excitation that finally the itf>e will cease to function. There is, then, a certain degree of sapling at which the tube will start »oscillate, a certain degree of couHng which will produce maximum osillation in the plate circuit and anther degree of coupling at which the obe will cease to oscillate. Front the foregoing short discussion i can be seen that a three electrode acuum tube can be made to function a a seif excited generator of an unamped alternating difference of postal at radio frequency, or by excitng the tube externally by, for examk, an Incoming radio slifnal, the mplifled plate circuit variations in Wntial can be fed back into the grid rd held to further increase the ampllode of the plate circuit var'iivftbns.

either magnetic or electetutic coupling. In Figure XXXVI the tube was made self exciting by coupling an Inductance C connected In the grid circuit to L, an Inductance Ln the tune plate circuit. A development of this circuit is shown In Figure XXXIX. Here the energy, instead of being directly coupled from the plate to the grid circuit. Is first necessary to an intermediate circuit, M-N, and then to the grid circuit. It Is necessary of course, that the circuit X-Y and M-N have the same natural period, that Is to say, they must be tuned to the same frequency. If the frequency is relatively high, the condenser 0 can be dispensed with, and the capacity of the plate to filament used as a portion of the oscillation plate circuit. The circuit ns shown in Fig. XXXIX is inherently the circuit used in low power undamped or continuous wave radio telegraph transmitters. By substituting in the oscillating circuit M-N the capacity of an antenna with respect. to the ground, we have the con- ' tlnuous transmitter shown In Fig. XL. By placing a key In the ’’B" or plate battery to turn the plate battery off and on the start and stop, the tube oscillating dots and dashes can be sent out by varying the coupling between the grid and plate colls I and L and the antenna circuit, the transmitter is adjusted for maximum power output. To adjust the wave length the value of the antenna Inductance Is varied. SUMMER SLUMP IS BENEFIT Both Manufacturers and Dealers in Radio Apparatus Are Learning a Needed Lesson. i "The slump In the radio business ' during the summer months Is a boon to the entire Industry," declares Joseph D. R. Freed, In an Interview pubi lished In Radio Merchandising. "Both the radio dealers and the more stable and serious manufacturers are learning a well-needed lesson from this ■ slump,” he says. “For example, deal-

ers are beginning only now to realize the truth of the fact that they cannot afford to carry a large and heterogeneous lot of odds and ends in radio apparatus In the hopes that they will be able to dispose of it. They are learning now, by a stern process, that hysterical overstocking of apparatus in an effort to meet the spasmodic demand of radio ‘faddists’ Is not going to prove profitable in the long run. They are beginning to realize that dependable apparatus, bought to meet the varying radio conditions, is more to be relied upon than unknown apparatus that looks good in the catalogue, and is merely an ornament upon the shelves. “Manufacturers, too, are learning their lesson from this slump. They are realizing that the time of ‘order taking’ is past and that the time of ‘order here. They are learning now, if they didn’t know It before, that in order to sell radio apparatus, they must give good value, serviceable merchandise, attractive prices and real service and dealer co-operation.” SPARKS It is reported Doctor Marconi lias obtained a speed of 200 words a minute in transoceanic radio messages. Utah telephone companies are fighting the use of radio for commercial purposes. The old story of trying to sweep back the waves. A San Francisco paper prints a funny picture of a young woman suing for divorce on the ground of “radio.” She told the judge her husband hadn’t noticed her for three weeks. It is said the youngest licensed radio operator lives in Los Angeles, In the person of Bobbie Garcia, aged eight years. He is the son of an electrician and it is claimed helped to build the first radio station on the Pacific coast. Three children were recently burned to death at Aiken, S. C., In a fire resulting from a short circuit in a radio transformer. The national board of underwriters is sending out warnings of the necessity for protecting radio wires from lightning and light and power currents. Radio Is co-operating with the farmers’ granges in the East, giving the latest prices for fruits and vegetables, which are posted for ready reference. The farmers claim false quotations have been given them heretofore by unscrupulous dealers In the big cities, and they have in this way been defrauded of large sums. A

TAKE SALTS IF 1 SIDMACH ISN'T ACTING SIGHT Says Indigestion Results From An Excess of Hydrochloric Acid Undigested food delayed in the stomach decays, or rather ferments, I the same as food left in the open air, I says a noted authority. He also tells us that Indigestion is caused by Hyperacidity meaning there is an excess of hydrochloric acid in the stomach which prevents complete digestion and starts food fermentation. Thus every-1 . thing eaten sours in the stomach much like garbage sours in a can. forming acid fluids and gasses which inflate the stomach like a toy balloon. Then j we feel a heavy, lumpy misery in the chest: we belch up gas; we eructate sour food or have heartburn, flatu-1 lence, water-wash or nausea. He tells us to lay aside all digestive aids and instead get from any pharmacy four ounces of Jad Salts and take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast and drink it | while it is effervescing, and further-; more to continue this for a week, i While relief eften follows the first ■lose, it is important to help neutralize the acidity, remove the gas-mak-! ing mass, start the liver, stimulate the kidneys and thus oromote a free , flow of pure digestive juices.

SAYS AMERICAN WOMEN ARE SELLING THEIR BEAUTY TO THE STYLE MONGERS

By LINCOLN QUARBERG United Pretz Staff Correspondent Chicago, Jan. 15. —American women are selling out their beauty to the style mongers. Dressing to the dictates of fashion is ruining the feminine figure. Charming busts are given to undulating hips and the Venus | woman has become the faddist femme, i This was the substance of an interview today with Ralph Moni, instructor in women’s dress designing at the ! Chicago Academy of Fine Arts. “The American woman has fallen I prey to the French dressmaker and is sacrificing her beauty to the fads and foibles of fashion,” declared Moni, • who teaches that dressing is an art, , and each woman a canvas to be made or marred by the right strokes of design. "It is not for the fashion arbiters to say what a woman should wear,” according to Moni. "Each woman has her own problem of dress to solve, depending on the shape of her figure,” declared the style expert. “Fat women, for example, should never wear bright colors or tight i clothes," he said. "They accentuate their fatness. But when the fashion HOOSIER POTATO SHOW Plans Made For Big Potato Show During Farmers' Short Course At Purdue University Plans are all complete for what promises to be the biggest potato show ever staged in the corn belt to be held January 8 to 12, at Purdue University under the auspices of the j Indiana Vegetable Growers’ associa- ' tion and the extension department. The show will be in connection with the farmers’ annual short course. Classes for commercial growers and farmers, who produce only enough for i their own use have been arranged and substantial premiums are being offered for those entering exhibits at the show. While the main classes call for Irish cobblers, early Ohios and rural New Yorkers, open classes i have been arranged and ample opportunity will be afforded to show new varieties of merit and introduce them i to Indiana farmers. Nor have the boys been neglected for the Baltimore & Ohio railroad and • the Indiana Horticultural society are ] offering a special trip to the potato ] club member who makes the best i > showing in his or her class at the show. ] Aside from the regular show a section will be devoted exclusively to certified seed potatoes of all the varieties best suited to Indiana conditions.
