A benefit Is always experienced from the first bottle, and a perfect cure is warranted when the right quantity is taken.

He produces a light bv simply revolving a vacuum tube In a constant electrical field between two charged plate*. He can even produce the light by rotating thu tube and hold trig a rod of gins* or eb- , onite electrotied by friction near it. If the rod la simply drawn once through a piece of dry flannel, «uillcient electricity Is developed to make the rotating tube luminous at a distance of a foot from the rod. The tulie in this experiment is simply a ! st night glass cylinder about live feet long, with a Imre similar to that of a spirit thermometer, and a bulb at e u-h end. A T piece, or projection, allows it to In- exhausted by an air pump and then sealed, tieside* forming an attachment to the motor which revolve* it.
