Power of Sea Tides Harnessed to Yield Electric Current Dreams of engineers to harness the <*3 are approaching probable realization in the construction of the first big hydro-elrrtrie plant to be opcrvcd by the rrie and fall of the tides al West Mersea, Essex, England. The unit is so arranged rliat at high water, a tidal basin is filled and drives turbines as the water flows out during low tides. This furnishes power and dso pumps water into an upper basin for use at high tide so that the opera- , tion of the generators is practically continuous. The first section of the plant will produce over 4.000.000 kilo-watt-hours of current a year and the completed works will have a capacity of nearly four times as great. » ♦ ♦ Scale under Freight-Car Wheels Gives Weight of Shipment Eliminating the time and expense required in hauling freight ears to a rail-bridge scale, a portable weighing outfit that can be slipped under the wheels has been devised for checking overweights and shortages. The weight is registered automatically on a sheet of paper on the dial. The total weight is determined quickly by ^^23//W WOISgS multiplying by four the result Am under one truck. The seals is used also for weighing locomotives and is (•i special service in making quick esimstea to see if there has been loss r>t<r'w»fr th a

Coaster Chair Steered with Feet Is Safe and Easily Carried Said to be more easily operated and safer than an ordinary sled, a coaster on which the rider sits upright and which he steers wholly with his feet has been devised. It is strongly constructed of hardwood, shod with steel and braced with iron. The usual style has only one runner but two are furnished in those made for smaller children. * * * Thawing Water Pipes After several fruitless attempts had been made to thaw out a frozen water pipe by pounng hot water on it, the use of lime was found very effective.

Artificial Teeth Made of Steel Teeth made from enameled steel have been added to the products of the Krupp plants at Essen. The metal is from the same mixture formerly used in making German cannon. Eight dentists have been employed in the department at the start, and Krupps hope to expand it later. ♦ • • Stretching Poultry Wire Stretching poultry wire on frames is a difficult task if attempted with the fingers. The tool shown in the illustration, which can be made in a few moments, will save much time and work and prevent sore fingers. A 3-ft. length of 1 by 3-in. board, a piece of No. 9 iron wire and two small staples are the only materials required. Form a hook on each end G ( the wire and then bend the wire around the 3-in. side of the board, about 4 in. from the end, tacking it in place with the staples.

Too Much Inspiration A poet at a window, a brunette came along. The poet liked her looks, began to pen a song In jnet another s moment a blond came Into view. She i was so very pretty she got a line or , two. And then there was a red-haired ( girl, and she was nnt so worse. She gave a lot of color to the ensuing . verse.

Weakening Night Coughing Banished Very Simple Way It is really astonishing how a persistent exasperating cough that has kept you awake night after night, and I is rapidly wearing you down » usually stopped . thc< by a very simple method. Hundreds have found that they can sleep the whole night through undisturbed often the first time they try it. The method is based on a remarkable pre- > script ion known as Dr. King's New Discovery for Coughs. You simply take a teaspoonful at night before retiring and bold it in your throat for 15 or 20 seconds before swallowing, with* j out foliowing with water. The prescription ■ has a double action. It not only eootbes and heals soreness and irritation, but it quickly loosens and removes the phlegm and congre* tion which are the direct cmm of thecoughing. Getting at the cause like this, in a perfectly ;litr.ple way.* stops the spells almost instantly, you get your best night's rest perhaps la r eeks and in a very short time the whole ccugh condition is gone. This simple treatment is splendid not only for coughs and chest colds, but also for bronchitis, bronchial asthma, hoarseness and alrr.ost every kind cf throat irritation, including children’s spasmodic croup. Very economical too, as the dose is only one teaspoonful. On sale at all good druggists. Ask for kCpiscovery^sl Phone ED.
