Sometimes this effect is very mark- ed, so great, in fact, as to be a great inconvenience, and readers will be in- terested in knowing how this detun- ing effect may be minimized. The main cause of all such tickler trouble is that the tickler is coupled to the grid side of the secondary coil, as shown in Fig. 1. You all are familiar with the so-called hand-capacity, effect In this case, if special precautions are not taken to avoid it, the presence of your hands in close proximity to parts of the set--notably the coils and tun- ing condensers--will have a -decided tuning effect. In fact, many listeners are in the habit of using hand-capacity as a sort of vernier adjustment, chang- ing the tuning slightly one way or the other by varying the position of their hands with respect to the set. Now the tickler can be considered as a "hand" as far as capacity effects are concerned. The "grid" side of the secondary is extremely sensitive to any capacity effects, and if we couple our tickler to this grid side it can easily be seen that movement of the tickler is going to affect the tuning in much the same fashion as though you put your hand down' in among the coils. The remedy is shown in Fig. 2, Here the tickler is connected in the plate circuit in exactly the same manner as it is in Fig. 1, but we have coupled it to the filament side of the secondary coil instead of the grid side. This fila- ment side is grounded, and therefore is not particularly sensitive to capacity effects. Movements of the tickler, then, will have far less effect on the tuning of this coil, and in some cases the tickler can be adjusted without af- fecting the tuning in the slightest. Tomorrow we will give some more information as to the correct installa- tion ofthe tickler.

Perhaps you wonder why your cel- lar stays so damp in summer, and why it often fails to dry out, even when the doors and windows are opened wide on hot, sunny days. Where does the moisture come from? Of course, after heavy rains, water may leak in from the ground, but most of the dampness is condensed out of the warm outdoor air, which ie introduced to dry the celiar. On hot, muggy days, the dewpoint of the air may be 60 degrees Fahren- heit, or even 70 degrees, well above the temperature of the cellar walls and floor. Dew, then, will form on the floors, walls, and particularly on the cold water pipes, just as it would on a glass of cool water. A certain bank, one hot day, found its safe deposit vaults, ventilated by a sys- tem of fans, getting very damp. On this day the dewpoint was 70 de- grees Fahrenheit, and the tempera ture in the vaults about 65 degrees. To dry the vaults, the, fans were speeded up, which onl¥ brought in more warm air carrying more mois- ture. The safe doors rusted and the floors became slippery and wet. If you would have your cellar as dry as possible, keep it tightly clos- ed on hot, moist days, though the sun may be shining. . But on a cool, dry night, or cool, cloudless day with a northwest wind, ventilate it tho- roughly. A WHOLESALE CLEAN UP. Hotels at Alexandria Bay., Raided for Liquor.
