sicians of Minneapolis have introduced a
new system of physical examination.
Chief among the newjdevices for this pur
pose is an X-ray camera for taking pic
tures of a child's heart while he is engaged'
in pedaling a stationary bicycle.
By means of a metaLiraniew-ork the
body ef the child is made to support the
picture-taking apparatus, so arranged that
the box containing the X-ray tube hangs
on his back, whereas the film holder is
suspended in front of the heart region.
The child is then directed to “ride” the
bicyde ss fact and hard as he can, and the
picture of the heart is taken while he is in
action. Changes in sise and shape, which
help to tell the Story of health or disease,
are thus easily recorded. The bicycle is
also used to measure the child’s capacity
for physical work, and to determine the
effect of exercise on pulse rate and blood
pressure.

Monster Locomotive Pivots on

“Double header*,” “helper*” end
"pushers”—the first named of whieb, in e
railroader’s language, means two loco
motives at the fiont end of a train, and
the last two designating the locomotives
coupled on the rear end, to move trains up
steep grades—probably will become only
memories, if monster locomotives like this
one illustrated are to be generally used.
When this big Mallet-tvpe locomotive
takes a curve in the track, it cannot make
the turn as its smaller brothers do, as it
is 108 feet long—one of the largest ever
built. Its b .filers swing on pivots inde
liendratly of the wheels. It has 12 driving
wheels, weighs 850.000 pounds—428 tons
—and carries 12,000 gallons of water and
4,000 gallons of oil. Its use has largely
been confined to freight hauling on a
western road, and it easily handles a hun
dred cars through the Rocky Mountains.

“HUMAN HEARTS” IS
AT PALACE TONIGHT
There are two standards by which
to judge “Human Hearts" before see-,
tng it at the Palace Theatre tonight.
One of the elements that went
into its making.
House Peters, the star, a favorite
with all who appreciate real dra
matic ability.
The cast including such noted
players as Russell Simpson, George j
Hackathorne, Mary Phtlhln, Edith
Hallor, Gertrude Claire, Ramsey Wal
lace, Snilz Edwards, H. S. Karr.;
Gene Dawson. Uucrelia Harris, Geo. j
W. West and Emmett King.
The story the greatest play that'
ever ruled the stage; for a decade j
the most popular play in the world,
having more road companies out at
one time than any other piece.
Written tiy Hal Reid, Wally's father.
The director, King Raggot, no only
competent as a director, but famil
iar with the story through having
played tlie lead in the first plctur
ization years ago.
Sum ui> these “making*" and add
the quality of Universal-Jewel fllrtK
ing, the top calibre of pictures.
The other standard is previous
reception.
Critics in the metropolitan cities
acclaimed in a real addition to the
list of exceptional pictures of the
I year. II lives up to every claim :
made for it. The action of the piecej\
proceeds with the utmost smooth
ness and the manner tn which the
dispense is sustained is a positive
triumph for Director King Daggett.'
