How to Build Attic Aerials for Your Radio "
TTF' aerials arc easy to construct,
/A anil when properly made, the results
tbtained with them are nearly as good as
those obtained with outdoor aerials. At
tic aerials should not be confused with
loop aerials, as they have no directional
■ Sects. They also have an advantage
aver outdoor aerials in that they do not
lieed a lightning switch.
The end-to-end type of this aerial eon
Rsts of a number of lengths of No. 14
Stranded copper wire, strung parallel to
rach other, and attached to the uprights
at each end of the attic by means ol ordi
nary aerial insulators. The total length
of the wire used should not be less than
160, nor more than 200 ft., and the wires
aboutd be spaced about 1 1 2 ft. apart.
One end is left, dead; the wires are then
connected in series, as shown, und the
other end is soldered to the lead-in wire,
tvhicb is brought down to the instrument
through a length of flexible loom
In attics where less space is available,
Such as those with hip roofs, the aerial
ran be strung along the rafters, as shown
In the upper right-hand drawing. One
length of No. 14 wife, 150 to 200 ft. long,
Is strung in four parallel rows as indi
cated, the wire being attached to the
rafters by means of rouud porcelain in
sulators. which can be purchased at any
rlectrieal-supply store. One end is left
dead, and the other is connected to the
lead-in wire, as before.
The flat-loop aerial, shown in the lower
iwing, is designed fur small attics.
Two lengths of rope are strung across
the attic from corner to corner, and are
tied together at the point where they
troaa. The aerial wire is attached to the
topes, as shown in the drawing, being
tied firmly at every point where it touches
the ropes. The inner end is the dead
one, and the outer end is connected to
the lcad-m wire. The turns should be
spaced shout 1 ft. spurt.
In apartments where there are no at
tics, «n inside aerial that gives good
results with a tube set can readily be

insulator
made by running several turn*
of annunciator wire behind
the picture molding, leaving
one end of the wire dead, and bringing
the other down to tho receiving set.
With such an aerial an amateur has rer
eeived stations 1.000 miles distant, using
a two-step spider-coil receiving set.
To obtain the beat resulta with any re
ceiving act, just as much pains must be
taken to secure a good ground as to con
struct the aerial. Number 14 wire should
be used, and one end soldered to a watt •
or radiator pipe. A clamp can also bn
used, the pipe, of course, being scraped
where the clamp is attached. Gas pipes
*>■
are not so good for grounding purpose?,
as they are often insulated from the
ground by the meter. However, this can
be remedied by shunting a wire around
the latter.

Women Need Swamp-Root
Thousands of women have kidney
and bladder trouble and never sus
pect it.

to be nothing else but kidney
trouble, or the result of kidney or
bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in a
healthy condition, they may cause
the oilier organs to become diseased.
Pain in the back, headache, loss
of ambition, nervousness, are often
times .syjrlptoms of kidney trouble.
Don’t delay srtlrting treatment.
Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Koot, a physi

needed to overcome such conditions.
