Made From Yeast Thousands finding new health and vigor through Vegex—richest of all foods in Vitamin B Vegex is a delightful pure food which builds nerve and gland power through vitamins. It has a rich, appetizing meat flavor, although entirely vegetable in ori- gin, being made from an especially rich quality of yeast. From twelve pounds of yeast but one pound of Vegex isextracted, leaving the health-building soluble pro- teins and rich mineral salts—with an enor- mous concentration of Vitamin B. If you fzel listless, or want more energy, or wish to overcome mental fatigue, indigestion, constipa- tion, gas on the stomach, fermentation, or general debility, eat Vegex. Nothing in biological science is more astounding than the almost instantaneous effect upon the system, especially upon the glands and nerves, of eating a minute quantity of any right food containing Vitamin B. Within from three to five days of starting to use Vegex, richest of all foods in Vitamin B, you will feel results in more ‘‘pep’’ and vigor, better digestion, normal bowels, clearer skin, and new vital energy. A Few Interesting Letters 1t is only a few weeks since Americans were first told of Vegex, and the sale was pushed. The response has been instantaneous. Already Vegex is being sold at an enormous rate yearly. Letters of ap- preciation are pouring in. Here are a few: “Vegex is a wonderful builder. It practically saved the life of my little nephew. People need something like this to build them up and bring back their pep.”" “Several weeks ago 1 bought a jar of Vegex. 1 have for years suffered with stomach trouble, and found this very helpful, and am desirous of getting more.”” A physician writes: *‘I have prescrib- ed Vegex to several hundred patients during the past few months. The re- sults obtained from all have been ex- cellent, with many extraordinary, and & few almost unbelievable.” (Names on request) Hundreds of other such cases are being reported constantly. Vegex is bringing new life, new strength, new energy, to thousands through its vitamins. Used by British Government During the war the British Government used millions of pounds to keep the armies healthy. Taste Vegex and you’ll want more. 1t can be served in many appetizing ways, especially as a drink or spread for sand- wiches.

June 21.— Senator ‘Guglielmo Marconi, wonder man of wire- less, 1ast njght annoynced the invention of What might be'termed a radio search- light, by means of which radio waves, Wwhich can be reflected like light waves, may be sent in a given direction in a beam, instead of being scattercd to all points of the compass. The famous TItalian said he believed this invention could be utilized in such a manner as to rid the sea of some of its terrors, for with a revolving reflector, the transmitter would censtitute a radio lighthouse, capable of flashing guiding beams nearly a hundred miles. Addressing a joint meeting of the In- stitute of Radio Engineers and the American Institute of Electrical En- vm;;‘n;ss::_-dm: Intest discoveries, the in- id of the proj i - Ronos: proposed radio light ‘By means of the revolving beam of electrical radiation, it is possible for snips, when within a certain distance, to ascertain in thick weather, the bear- ing and position of the lighthouse Advantages of Device. . It reems to me that it should be pos- sible to design apparatus by means of which a ship could radiate or project a divergent beam of the short wave rays ! in any desired direction, which rays. if coming across a metallic object. such as| | another steamer. would be reflected back to a receiver on tie sending chip and thereby fmmediately reveal the presence and bearing of the other ship in fog or thick weather. One further greater ad- vantage of such an arrangement would be that it would be able to give warning of the presence and bearing of ships. even should these ships be unprovided | with any kind of radio.” arrangement of wires on towe masts. During his lecture Ma exhibited pictures of reflectors, re- sembling the weird apparatus pic- tured in imaginary tales of the con- quest of the world by Martians Through the use of these reflectors at both ends clear speech was ex- | changed during experiments over a distance of ninety-nine miles, be- tween London and Birmingham, he | announced, establishing a record in long-distance radio transmission and reception with short waves, { Sends and Receives Together. Marconi stated that the reflectors make jt possible for the receiver to reproduce a radio telephone song or speech about 200 times louder than | is ordinarily possible. What is more. | speech is transmitted practically without distortion, and the transmit- ting aerial can be used both for send- | ing and receiving at the same time. | “In these days of broadcasting itj may still prove to be very useful to| nave a practically new system, which | will be to a very large degree secret | when compared to the usual Kind@ of | radio.” he added. 1 Marconi expressed belief that inj the development of radio communi- | cation, the longer wave lengths have | so much absorbed the attention of inventors and engineers that the time has come to conduct research in short-wave-length radio. Of nround-| the-world wireless., he said, he had; obtained results “which go far tol show the relative facility with which radio, signals can now be sent from England to Australia. and seem to: indicate that there is something in the idea of the wireless waves trav- eling around the earth by various ways and reuniting at the Antipodes. Sometimes these radio waves, tra cling around the earth in different di- rections, reinforce each other when they meet at the receiver, said Mar- coni, and sometimes they interfere with each otherr He declared that the great station built by the radio corporation of America at Port Jef- 1{rrsnn. Long Island. the most power- ful on this continent, sent waves that |“preferred to travel three-quarters| of the way around the earth, rather than to come by the shortest way round.” Further Discoverfes. - Marconi discovered that when short waves are used, disturbances caused by static can be said to be almost non-existing_and the only interfer- ence come from the ignition appa- ratus of automobile and motor boats. “Incidentally,” he added, “I might mention that one of the short wave receivers will act as an accurate de- vice for testing whether or not one’s ignition system is working all right. Some motorists would have a shock it they realized how often their igniters and spark plugs are working in a deplorable irregular mannes” To overcome static, Marconi first determined the strength of the signal sent by a measuring apparatus and then makes the signal strength equal to that of the distance transmitting station. “If the signals are unreadable, due to static,” he explained, “the measur- ing apparatus is used to send to an operator at a standard rate of twenty | “Excellent,” Says Secretary Wal- lace of Middle West.
