A DRY CELL VACUUM TUBE. Undoubtedly the greatest drawback to the continued use of the vacuum - gix-volt storage battery and the con- handling of thie unwieldy object ital to recharging, to say nothing of the cost of this gperation. ‘The tubes general use to-day draw from 3 to 5 watts, making the use of dry cell tteries Almost prohibitive because of Sau short service period. There is, of course, the alternative of stepping down ba house Heh! current by means of trasformer, which is just about as the storage battery and presents some problems that may prove in es with the to my high prices to be incidental of pr nalts get to work and new tube, This tube will ity gf the expensive gnd rectifying trana- Wotecent economic fi icga with the ordinary ordinary tube wet fe ry cell bat 528: mn age el attempted with new tube which makes the we ie + hig tubd is similar mhape to the radiotron UV203, but is considerably smalior than most tubes, and is filled with a “fool-proot” base. base ts designed to prevent it be- Ing accidentally placed in a socket sup- plied by @ 6-volt current and thereby having ite filament burned out.

Two No. 4 dry cells in parallel under the same conditions will give service fer, about forty hours, and one No. 4 dry ceil battery will serve for about fifteen houfa, This will give you a good idea of how long a battery will last in service with the new tube. The foregoing gives ar idea of the possibilities of the adaptability of this tube for a portable receiving: set. There is already evidence that thousands of radio sets are to be taken to camp dur- ing the coming summer in spitc the limitations imposed by a beavy volt storage battery. The “dry cell’ tube now makes it possible and prac+ tieal for a camping party to carry & receiving set of small dimensions and weight, and ot sufficient range to In touch with the outside world thro the present rediopho: broadcasting which hes me general. home a dry cell is Preference to a storage battery, not only from the standpoint of economy but because the dry cell may be conveniently in any place and in ad~ dition does away with the objectionable fumes which are fore diffusing from the acid of « storage battery. It is logical to ask how this great @ecrease in filament power consump- tion has been accomplished. The de- sign of evety essential elenient in th tube contributes to this end. ‘The fl ment is of platinum about one-elgh’ as thick as the finest tissue paper, and | oxides with the result that a spsclal form of Wehnelt cathode formed. This filament is welded to a sup- ports for easy assemblage and is kept in position by the aia of a specially constructed ‘and very flexible spring. ‘The spring enables the filament to move freely In case of severe jar, but other- wise to be held firmly in place, This forms an exceedingly rugged structure for so delicate a atrip.

Doctors are now agreed that proper elimination of waste matter Should be brought about by food. One doctor comes right out and states plainly that the indiscriminate use of cathartics is one of the causes of constipation. Physicians all over the country are Tecommending Fleisch. mann's fresh yeast because it is a fresh food, rich in those ele ments which keep the intestines healthy. ‘Try it out for yourself, Begin today by adding 2 or 3 cakes of Fleischmann’s Yeast to your everyday diet.
