Shipwreck Victims Msjr “Walk"
to Land
A one-man life-saving device with which
rilipwreck victims may “walk" to land
has recently been produced. It consists
j W two pontoons that slide back and forth
I alternately in s rigid frame, the operator
I placing a foot in each one, standing erect,
! of course, and grasping the handles at a
i steering device. As the pontoons are
' worked, paddles on the bottom .gid the
walker, folding up so as to offer no resist
ance on the forward slide. • In windy
weather a sail assists the walker. f
VVJ
i fl Street cars equipped with roller bear
j ings are soon to appear in St.^Paul and
' Minneapolis, Minn., and it is expected
] that this departure will make the opera
tion of the cars almost as noiseless as
eight-cylinder automobiles. In addition
| it is believed 12 to 15 per cent on power
Will b« saved and service speeded up.
All Is Not Ice That Glistens
Among the many ingenious methods of
producing “atmosphere” in motion pie
j lures, one of the most novel is using
paraffin in taking scenes that call for
Seating ice. The paraffin is spread over
the water in hot melted form, and when
it cools—which is almost instantly—it
looks at much like ioe as that substance
itself, especially in the motion pictures
a

with sails. This novel

Burning Out Stumps PflKtircly
A good mot bod of clearing land of
stumps is to burn thorn out with the aid
T
of saltpeter. Saltpeter, if so applied as to
penetrate into the heart, of a st nmp proper
ly, wtl ib a year's tune re* eh dawn to the
wery ends of the roots. Dunn* the sum
rasr, when the stumps are thoroughly
dry, drill a IMrin- hole, a! out 3 or 4 in.
deep, in the center of the stump, as indi
cated . Into this hole put 3 laid spoonfute
of saltpeter; then close the hole, with
decayed wood and dirt During the fol
lowing summer, dig out the dirt, fill the
hole with kerosene, and sel the stump on
fire. It will burn slowly but surely,
and will keep on burning under the
ground until every piece of root is con
sumed. The action of the saltpeter makes
a slow-burning match of the fibers of the
roots, and carries the fire wherever it has
penetrated. This method eliminates the
possibility of roots being left in the ground
to oatch os plowshares.

NEW TAXES IN
TURKEY AROUSE
MUCH CRITICISM
CONSTANTINOPLE. Juno 8.—(By
Associated Press.)—The Grand Na
tional Assent Idy slits in its capital
at Angora, barred front contact with
'he outside world, almost inaccessible
even to foreign diplomats whoso in
tercourse nnfsT be through the me
dium of Or. Adnan Bey, its repre
sentative in Constantinople. The
government thus lives in an atmos
phere of its own cro.iii.on. unaftacted
by foreign comment on its actions,
and to this condition is attributed
some recent governmental actions
which have aroused a measurable de
gree of foreign criticism.
Until recently the duty on flour
into Turkey was one per cont. On
March 1 the rate d'.ts adv tno.ed to
5 per cent, and made retroactive on
all stocks still in warehouse and
which had paid the old duty of 1 per
cent, it is recognized that the ques
tion of this diutiy 'is clearly a mat
ter of Internal administration, and it
is accepted as such; only with the
retroactive aspect laavo foreigners
found fault.
A decree has been Issued increas
ing the income tax five fold, and to
'Include foreigners, and retroactive
to the date of the foreigner's arrival
in Turkey.
Another law increases the cousump
tioon tax on a certain fat product
from 6 to 80 piasters, and it affects
large stocks at present in' transit
contracted for whe.a the levy was
only five piasters
In local business circle.s these awk
ward and unusual proceedings are
ascribed largely to tlve ignorance of
a popular government as yet unused
to the intricacies of economic legis
lation. It is felt that the deputies
do not -realize the far reaching ef
fects of such measures, nor their
reaction in Wesiern lands.

ODIC RAY MAY
BALK GRAVITY
PASAURN-A. Juno 8 — Gray im
tSon will be revolutionised by the j
Odic ray. believes Edgar L. Mailings-!
bead, inventor and investigator in
the field of electricity, who says that .,
t.is twenty years of experiment hove
0 trim i nailed in the discovery that
orlid. in the path of^this ray are
not subject to the pull of grajrity.
Mr. Hollir.jfJuad declares that the
Odic ray discovered by him effects a
change in i he direction of the^min
t.:c whirls of ether within any solid ■
1 spoil which it is focused, with the
result that gravity cannot "take
hold.”
The theory upon which Mr. Hol
ilngfhead works, briefly staled, is
this:
Ii is impossible to conceive of a'
force except as something that is
Iviovlng. If it is something moving
t muss be a substance in some form,
'and if it is a substance it must be
| govern men 1 by the same principles
! net control all substance or matter
I :n the universe. It must be made
I op of an aggregation of eddies, sini
I ilar to those in the field of a mag
Inet. Furtfier, there must be two
polarities to each force. If this
were not true there would be an,
i in-balanced condition In nature
Therefore tiie force of gravity'
j must have its opposite polarity a'
Impelling instead of attractive force.,
I “Thus I reasoned,” Mr llollings
head explains, "and since have prov
en it true, and if 1 increase the
speed of the eddies of force-compOs
i ing matter 1 would set. up a re-1
instance to the force of gravitation.;
;o force traveling in the direction
; opposite to gravitation.
"M.v next problem was to find aj
way of releasing a force sufficiently
powerful to affoet the speed of mat
ter. This I have accomplished by
regarding the amperage cf electric
ity as a eubotanes having a definite
energy and by developing a process
by which a portion af the energy of
the amperage, or substance part of
electricity, can bo released.
”ln ray experimenting I have
changed the rpeed of this released j
energy from that of a rav wlch af-1
fects the photographic plate as ordi
nary light, to one with power In
stantly disintegrating any solid sub-;
stance within Its scops of radiation.”

CARE OF EAR IS DISCUSSED
IN RED CROSS HEALTH HINTS
^ n
HEALTH HINTS
iBy Marie E- Falldine, Public Health j
Nurse, Juneau Chapter American
Red Cross )
THE EAR
While the ear'ia one of (he most
delicate organs, 'it Is less susceptible1
to disease than met organs of the
body—that 4s to primary Infection!
and most of the diseases of the ear
ere secondary to other diseases or
to tonsllltis or nasal trouble. A
large percentage of middle ear trou
ble is due to lnfocted adenoids.
Noises, ringing and crackling In
the ears, etc.. aro Invariably caused
by nabal or ton-oil trouble. Thicken
ing of the Eustachian tube causes j
tingling in the cars.
Often diseases of the ear follow'
the acute infectious diseases, such'
as scarlet fever, measols, etc-, and
many cases of deafness may be
traced back to some preventable dis
ease.
When thoir is real 'functlonable
trouble with the ear It la very dif
ficult to got results from treatment.
Swelling or redness behind the
oar should always be ireJ>orted to a
physician as this very often denotes
inflammation of the mastoid bone,
which usually requires prompt sur
gical attention.
When a baby cries as If in pain
and when there are no digestive die
turbanco oarache should always be
thought of.
Sometimes the dropping* of some
warm oil or glycerine lolo the ear'
will relieve the pain. If tlvis Is not
successful consult your physician as;
often much harm Is drm* through J
experimenting and often total deaf-j
ness may result from lack of prop**-!
care.
I
Care should be exercised in wash-i
Ing out the ears with the syringe,
as too much force may be used and
If there Is any discharge it might
be forced bark into,the mastoid pro*
cess.
Never use hairpins or sharp point
ed Instruments of any kind In the
ears to iromovo wax, as there is
danger of Injuring the drum. In re
mowing wax nothing should be used
except tho finger over which should
bo placed a towel or handkerchief.
Even then caution should b« used
not to crowd the finger Into the
ear, but wipe tho ear gently.
Nearer allow a discharging ear to
go without consulting a physician.
This Is a serious condition and un
less cared for permanent deafness
often results
Inserts in the ear may be re
moved by dropping a Ititle warm
oil into the ear and tilting the head
to nllow the oil to run In—then
