The phonopher, as this device is called, consists mainly of a small earpiece or receiver, weigh- ing less than half an ounce and fitting almost Invisibly into the outer ear passage, a small trans- mitter, measuring 2 by 4 inches and a little over a quarter of an inch in thickness, a switch and a small light battery of high storage capacity. It is claimed that this instrument enables the deaf to hear the most subdued musical sounds as well as con- versational and public speaking, without the faintest suggestion of that tiny tone usually no- ticed in sound-transmitting in- struments, The idea of electrical hearing aids is not new. Various con- trivances have made their ap- pearance for the last 15 years or so, but have bad many draw- backs, such as the roaring and hissing sounds, caused by the ex- cessive vibration of the large diaphragm, coupled with the general appearance of these con- trivances with the large black box receiver held to the head by the heavy steel headband. In the phonophor the earplece fits into the ear and, but for the slender silk connecting cord, is almost Inperceptible. Even the transmitter, that part which col- lects the sounds, {s carried com- pletely hidden in a pocket with- out materially impairing its func- ‘ ‘ , ’ ‘ ‘ ’ ’ ‘ ‘ ’ ’ ’ , ’ ‘ ’ ’ ’ ‘ ‘ ’ ’ , ‘ ‘ ’ ’ ’ ‘ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ Beem we wmmwmeenmemeweeneenennnnnnencass uon, The elimination of the metallic tones from the transmitted sounds has been accomplished by substituting a thin membrane in place of the metal diaphragm, an idea based upon the action of the human ear drum. we teweees SS cTcccrrere | GOD OF FIRE How Peculiar Religious Observance is Carried Out in Islands Ruled by the Mikado. prsweeece A religious observance in Japan pe- | ee erertet ttt ttt tts TREE!

The ceremony is out of respect to Fudo San, the god of fire, primarily. Those observing the custom carry a lantern and jingle a small bell as they go along the street. The sea- son continues for 30 days. The first 15 days of the season is ealled the daiken, or great cold, and the second 15 days the shokon, or small cold. Most of those who go through the ceremony are young men, apprentices in some trade, who | run to and from the bath, repeating go. The principal temple and bath is the one in Fukawaga Ku. The cold water bath there is open for women only until 6 o'clock in the evening, but at all hours in the day for men. Among the women are many young actresses, who pray earnestly for success in their profession. How Deadly Gas Is Made Useful. By mixing tear gas, developed for war use, with deadly but odorless hy- drocyanic acid, a powerful disinfect- | ant, the chemists of the chemical war- | fare service have made a combination }that can be used safely in sanitary work.” Since the hydrocyanic acid gas | | kills the eggs of vermin as well as the | | vermin, it is one of the most effec- | tive disinfectants known. As it has no taste or sme}! and produces no dis- comfort when breathed, the first indi- cation of its presence in the atmos- phere is the collapse of the person breathing it. Tear gas is detected In- stantly by its Irritant effect on the eyes even when the air contains only minute amounts, and the combination of the two can thus be escaped be- fore the cyanide has a chance to act.
