Show V LAMP QUITE HANDY saves much wasted light and un eyes glow needed r u W uil chief claims made lor the new electric con man 1 are that it eliminates waste ot light and savea a great deal of eye strain by directing the light lis useful electric lamp where it Is needed the lamp Is fixed on an upright standard and has A hemispherical reflector which throws the raya out horizontal at the top of reflector Is a shade in turn deflects the rays ta the took pr alece or bowene or whatever it Is that the light Is deeded on thus there Is no waste light thrown in a on the floor or in all corners or ther ooin chere it Is not needed and there Is no glare or strain on the eyes M will readily be understood it should la possible to get all the illumination one or two re quire with much less

in a tank on the roof of a building Is time eaver says the popular the lamps are wired as shown and located in the engine room upon a slate slab on the tank Is a row of four contacts and one long brass strip over this moves a copper slider con tolled t by guides and fastened by a rod to a ball float in the water As electric light indicator the water rises and falls the slider moves up and down lighting the arpp er lamp to show the water level effect of ultra violet rays the ultra violet rays hav e a fatal effect on bacteria and as these raya are abundantly developed by the mercury vapor lamp a device has been designed abroad tor the sterilizing ol 01 milk which Is accomplished effectively in a few minutes it Is said thi milk flows in a thin stream along an electric light demonstrations were first made with water infected with different kinds of bacteria and it Is said that the water was in a few minutes without appreciably in creasing its temperature the result Is attributed to the ozone formed un der the influence of the light but tha demonstrations must be conducted condu cled inhere there is sufficient room for ahe light to burn freely this method ol 01 sterilization without heating or idd tig preservatives Is believed to tiava great hygienic value in respect to nursing children |
