Abbey's Salt

Effer- vescent ea

The disagreeable features of travelling can be overcome when you have a bottle of Abbey's Salt with you.

A change from the daily routine of living brings Head- aches, Biliousness and Con- stipation, which are so fre- quently incidental to travelling

Abbey's Salt will almost instantly relieve you of these disturbers of pleasure by its soothing effect on the Stomach, Liver and Bowels.

Sold in two sizes by all Chemists and Stores, and by Watkins, Ltd., and A. S. Watson, Lt., Hong Kong.

that these currents are due to the notion of the an and the earth with its atmosphere as A gigantic dynazas, the sun being the mugnatio indnetor and the earth the rovering armature with the atmosphere and the superficial crust na two windings, The earth's rotation develops a contrary, or east to west, curren in the atmosphere, which induces a contrary, ar west to east, eneront in the ernst. M. Gearini believes that a large amount of par- rent could be passed through a motor of low resistence, and made to yield a large amount of power for industrial use.

The low efficiency of the steam engine tempts inventors with great possibilities of earing fuel. M. Cantor. a Europant engineer, has bit upon an altogether now form of heat engine, and proposes to use for power the expansion of the gas produced by the burning of liquid fuel- like petroleum and nicuhol-when sprayed upon In white-bet oxidizing material, like oxide of copper. The oxygen removed from the copper oxidu would be restored by an airejet. Perding a practical test, it is claimed that this highest possible rate of expansion, would be produced in the working gas, and that a greatly increased thermodynamic afficiency would be secured,

The celluloid wind screens of automobiles give great risk of fire. Very fine copper ganze is ait to have proven a satisfactory substitute, belag easily seen through and non-inflammable, while it does not crack like celluloid.
