In order to meet more nearly the demands of readers for a certain few expensive books of non-fiction, the Public Library announces that in the future, in addition to the regular copies of such books which are circu- lated free of charge, they will pur- chase duplicate copies of such books to be loaned on the payment of small fees. These fees will go toward pay- ing for the books. and when this is ac- the books will be made free copies.

All four of them are designed for operation at 3 volts filament voltag> and use a G-volt storage battery as the source of filament current, al- though the low current requirements of 0.25 amperes at 5 volts makes it possible to use dry batteries as the filament current source. A 4-ohm rheostat is sufficient to reduce the 6-volt source to the required 5 volts, but in some cases, especially when used as a detector, better operation of the tube is obtained at a lower voltage than the rated voltage of 5 volts, so_that a 20-ohm rheostat will be found suitable for use for better control. These tubes can be used as detectors, as osclllators, as radio fre- quency amplifiers and as audio fro- quency amplifiers. When used as de- tectors a plate voltage of 45 volts is recommended; when used as oscilla- tors and radio or audio frequency amplifiers a plate voltage of 40 to 100 volts gives best results. For detector use a grid condenser of .00025 mfd. and a grid leak of 2 megohms should be provided.

Creomulsion is a new medical discovery with two-fold ||| action: it soothes and heals the in- flamed membranes and inhibits germ growth. Of all known drugs, creosote is recognized by high medical author- ities as one of the greatest healing agencies for persistent coughs and colds and other forms of throat troubles. Creomulsion contains, in addition to creosote, other healing elements, which soothe and heal the infected membranes and stop the irritation and inflammation, while the creosote goes on to the stomach, is absorbed into the blood, attacks the seat of the trouble and checks the growth of the germs. Creomulsion is guaranteed satis- factory in the treatment of persist- ent coughs and colds, bronchial asthma, bronchitis and other forms of respiratory diseases, and is ex- { cellent for building up the system |after colds or flu.
