Pump the surface water into a fireless "boiler" and it will boil if the alr is exhausted from the boiler. The steam given off the turbine is condensed to form a drives a turbine and the exhaust from vacuum by means of cold water drawn from the depths. Hence we have a kind of sink into which heat units flow, driving a turbine in the process. ; ie they read of projects such as those of Claude and Tesla, engineers ---- 'their pencils aftd begin to fig: ure, Suppose the turbine were of 85," kidowatt size. The rotating por- mn, or "ortor," would have a diameter pipe leading from the "boiler" to the ot 100 feet. The diameter of the steam throttle would be about 25 feet. The very largest power houses would be plgmies in comparison with a Claude or Tesla plant of small capacity.

A man can swallow snake venom, but it will kill him if he gets it into a scratch. He can acquire the parrot disease by way of the mouth, but certain monkeys yield to it only when the blood is directly af- fected. These facts were presented by Pro- fessor Wilder Bancroft of Cornell Uni versity before the American' Chemical Saclety to defend and elaborate views that a famous French physician, Claude 'Bernard; advanced over sixty years ago on the subject of insanity. All poisons, anesthetics and drugs that interfere with the brain or the sensory nerves prcduce mild insanity, because they affect thinking and ac- tion. Thus anesthesia causes a coagu- lation or puckering of the proteins in the brain and sensory nerves, with the result that emotions and reasoning are influenced. If the affected pro- teins are made mushier normality is restored. This actually turns out to be the case when ephédrine or sodium * thiocyanate is administered to anes- thetized men, dogs, rabbits and gold- fish. All this means that chemistry is gradually discovering how the tissues of the brain and nerves can be chemi- cally affected to treat the insane. Not to the physician but to the chemist must we look for much of our progress in medicine.--W. K.

"Nurmi is in physical constitution an ideal athlete," Dr. Gottheiner sald.' "But Hempl is so far from it--in fact, he is asthenic; his extraordinary per- formance shows what a man can do when hé las the wil] for it." Dr. Gottheiner said he had started as a pathological anatomist but on the basis of his X-ray researches had come to the conclusion that mere knowledge of the organic structure was almost meaningless: - "When a heart has been cut out of the body," he sald, "it is just a chunk of meat.

London Dally Telegraph (Ind. Cons,): Serious difficulties in Aus: tralia and New Zealand led to a post- ponement of the Imperial Conference to an unfixed date in 1932. These exist no longer, and in both those Do- minions the Governments' desire for an early meeting has been made known. In this country the position has been magically changed; the strong Government of modern times has been given what is asked for--a free hand for the reconstruct- ing of our economic fabric by any means that shall be deemed effective; and that mandate has been sought and obtained with a specific insistence that a tariff policy is not to be ex- cluded from the methods of adjusting our economic life to the altered con- ditions of world commerce, Thus, armed, the Government will take part in the Economic Conference complete- ¥ ~"1 thought yon ana Foozello were acquainted" = Howe--""We are."
