Reproduction Prohibited. t Goes on Behind the Scenes in a RHefiex Circuit, Part 1 The following is the action which takes place in some of the ordinary types of radio receiving circuits In the crystal detector circuit shown in Fig. 1. the signal energy, consist- ing of a radio frequency wave, which is modulated by the audio frequency received in the aerial circuit and transferred to the de- tector circuit where the radio fr, quency modulated current is stripped of the radio frequency current and r duced to an audio frequencx voice current, which is suitable for operat Ing the phones In a vacuumn tube detector circuit however, it is not the original signal energy which comes into the grid cir- cuit of tha receiver which is used to actuate the phone diaphragm. The signal energy merely acts as a con trol element to release energy of the B battery in the plate circuit of the tube, so that in its essential elements no current of the grid cirénit flows in the plate circuit except through t portion of the filament circuit whieh ix common to both grid amd plate cir- cuits In order to understand the working of the reflex cireuit it is necessgry to the action which takes the more common and sim- of the radio and freqfiency and dete types The functions of the various cir ts and the essential actions which be grasped very easily Wy studying a diagram known as a functional diagram.

Dental statistics prove that four out of every five over 40—and thousands younger, too are by Pyorrh Do you want to escape: It takes healthy gums to keep healthy teeth - If you neglect your gums—let them get in a “run-down’ condition—you may soon be numbered among Pyorrhea’s countless wvictims. Bleeding gums are Nature's first warning. Then \‘ge gums begin to recede, lose that rich, bealthy-pink color. Poisons collect in pus pockets and often drain through the en- tire system, causing indigestion, anaemia, rheumatism and other serious diseasesof mid- life. In the final stages the teeth loosen and fall out. Take no chances—use Forhan’s If used in time and used consistently, For- han's will prevent Pyorrhea, or check its progress—something ordinary tooth pastes are powerless to do. It contains just the right proportion of Forhan's Astringent (as used by the dental grofmsion in the treat- ment of Pyorrhea). It is safe, efficient and pleasant tasting. Even if you don't care to discontinue your favorite dentifrice, at least start using Forhan's once a day. Forhan's is more than a tooth paste; it checks Pyorrhea. Thousands have found it beneficial for years. For your own sake ask for and get Forhan's For the Gums. ‘At all druggists, 35¢ and 6oc in tubes. i Formula ofB.J. Forhan D, D..
