During this Rolf Pratt, as Thaddeus, an exiled Polish officer, appears. ha been pursued by Austrian soldiers but escapes, and overtakes a bunehjtf gypsies who at first attempt to rot blm and later find out that they like him and persuade him to Join their company. In that way by changing costume he elude the soldier who are searching for him. Devllshoof, captain of the gypsies (played by Carl Christensen) like Thaddeu and promises to stand by him. Shrieks are heard in the forest near by and Arllne (Maurln Gamett) the daughter of Count Arnhelm who is in the forest with her nurse is wounded by a buck deer the hunters have. driven to bay. She Is rescued - by Thaddeus. - ; . The Count is grateful and invite Thaddeus.to the castle to partake of the festival and drink to the health of the Austrian Flag and emperor.

DOES AWAY WITH THE HISS Raeent Invention Alee Capturee Harmonics Har-monics Which Hitherto Have Been Completely test A new uxe has been found for the remarkable device- which photograph sound on motion picture film and then reproduces the sound from the" film. C. A. Uoxle, the Inventor, has now devUed- a pick Bp er microphone; using the principle of the pallophotophone reproducer. The microphone Is the link between the artist or Instrument In the studle end the electrical circuit;' It converts er transforms the variations of tone Into corresponding variations of current. cur-rent. Microphone now In general use are. constructed on the principle of th telephone transmitter In" which the compression or expansion of granular carbon affect the electric current. In the pallophotophone pickup a very sensitive diaphragm is set vibrating vibrat-ing by sound. The movement of the diaphragm Is communicated to a mirror mir-ror three sixty-fourths of an Inch square. A strong light strikes the dancing mirror, which reflects the light beam at a sensitive light cell The variation In the beam of light, caused by- the vibration of the mirror, varies the effect on the light cell and thus produces a corresponding variation In the electric circuit Amplification 1 then obtained In the ordinary way by means of pllotrons. The new pickup eliminates the his which accompanies th use of the ordinary ordi-nary microphone ; It I more sensitive nd responds more readily and . acenr rately to sound waves, capturing harmonics har-monics which would ordinarily be lost, -Exchange. . ( PRINCIPLE IS NOT "MODERN' Ancient Egyptians ,. sVutlt' Chariot . Whesle That Correspond t These Used en Autoe Today. Speculation n how many ages ago the basic principle of the modern motor ear wheel was discovered has been revived re-vived sharply by the find of several richly ornamented chariot wheel In the tomb of King Tut-Ankb-Amen at Luxor, Egypt - ' Expert scrutiny shows remarkably "modern" notions In these '' wheel which carried Egypt' Pharaoh thirty-five thirty-five hundred year ago. Th hnb, spoke and rim construction have 'graceful outlines combined with great strength. The wheels were nsed on chariots probably designed for war, which Involved In-volved driving at top speed across rough ground and often crashing Into other war chariots. One way the motive engineer of the ancient king's time gained the desired wheel strength wss by using an excessively long bub with a small diameter to reduce friction and help In holding alignment.: Motor car hube today make use of the principle. In the bronze nsed for spindles and bear Ing the Egyptians had a bearing metal modern workers never have been bl to duplicate. The tempering of bronxe to marvelou hnrdnees Is regarded re-garded as a lost art King "Tut had "puncture proofs," too, but their construction hardly would be practical for the average modem motorist Several of the richly ornamented chariot wheels unearthed had tires of gold.
