WE MAY WELL
FOLLOW EXAMPLE
WHY FRANCK IS THE BANKER
OF THE WORLD
A sort of paradox is the fact
that thousands of people who make
no effort to make a dollar when
times are mighty prosperous will
develope and practice economy when
work and opportunity are less plen
tiful, writes H. H. Windsor in Pop
liplar Mechanics. The best way of
course, is to try and save a little
all the time, putting by a larger
amount when earnings are at their
height. As a nation we are not
taught that economy which makes
France the banker of the world, and
whose accumulations come not from
vast exports of natural resources,
but from the combined small sa
vings, persistently continued year
after year, by the French jteiple
as a whole.
If the people of this co<ntr.T
would save during the year I‘Mb
an average of $10 per capita, ti.e
grand total at the end of ths firs
twelve months would be the iv.r.g
nificient sum of one bilbon dollar..
The French save, partly because it
has become hereditary and chiefly
because- the children are brought up
i .■>->» way and are taught the d’g
■iit.v of accumulation. We, on the
contrary, in a spirit of false pride,
are inclined tfl scorn the necessity
of saving, as though it were some
thing of which to be ashamed. If
our present experiences shall tes>eh
us thrift it will be a strenghtening
of a great national weakness.
JtADIUM WATER IS AS
COSTLY AS CHAMPAIGNE
The patient who starts taking
radium water usually has to con
sume about one hundred dollars’
worth before its benificial effects
are preceived, says the Scientific
American in summing up the latest
report of the Radium Institute of
London.
At this institute, where they prob
ably have more radium than any
where else, and where the greatest
physicians and surgeons in England
are administering it, they use, be
sides the water, flat varnished “ap
plicators” of various shapes and in
sizes ranging from 0.7 square centi
meters to 28 square centimeters.
These are made in three strengths,
from 7 milligrams to 150 milligrams.
They use also minute glass tubes
filed with radium sulphate.
The water, which i seithe^ drunk
or injected, is prepared by bubbl
ing radium emanation through dis
tilled water, which is then slowly
drawn off into bottles. The appar
atus at the institute is designed to
give,solutions with an activity from
1 to 2 millicuries per litre, an ac
tivity much greater than the best
of the radioactive water from
natural sources.
“As a drink radium water would
prove an expensive luxury, since a
very moderate sized bottle costs
two and a half dollars.” continues
the Scientific American.
“The present writer on being ask
ed to sample the radium water, did
so before learning its cost, and after
ward estimated that he had drunk
about a dollor’s worth.
“Radium water has the flat taste
one rssociates with distilled water,
tope Ixr with a curious faint salty
flavor, and its effect, so far as the
writer’s experience goes, is to rend
er one extremely sleepy for the
rest of the day.
“For these reasons alone it is
not probable that radium water
will • ever rival John Collins or any
similiar preparation as a beverage,
even for millionaires.”
CLAIMS PRIORITY FOR HIS
FORGERY-PROOF PEN
Dr. Dinshah P. Ghadiali of Sturat,
India, now living at Hillsdale, N. J.,
sends to this maganize a copy of
the Model Engineer of London,
England, for Sept. 30, 1909, contain
ing a description and illustration
of an electric pen for writing
checkes that will be forgery-proof—<
a pen that is the same in Its es
sential features as that invented
by J. W. Martin of Red Rock, Cal.,
to which the Technical World Mag
azine awarded a first prize and
which was described and illustrated
on this page recently.
As Dr. Gahadiali’s pen won the
doploma of merit and bronze medal
at the Model Exhibition in London
in 1909 and was patented in the
United States in 1911 (Patent No.
983,703), it would seem that he is
right in claiming to be the original
inventor.
