Beeman’s Original Pepsin Chewing Gum

“That attack of dyspepsia of which you are complaining is due to one of two causes:

“Either you have overeaten or you have been working under a nervous strain. For food will not properly digest when you go to your meals with nerves on edge.

“There isn’t anything serious about this form of indigestion and the simplest sort of treatment should bring immediate relief.

“For years I always recommended the use of pepsin in such cases until, in later years, when I had put pepsin into chewing gum, I suggested to my patients that they chew a stick of Beeman’s Original Pepsin Gum for ten minutes after each meal.

“Pepsin is good for stomach ailments, while the chewing of the gum acts as a nerve tonic.”

Surfboards of Cloth
RIDING the ocean breakers on surfboards made of cloth is a novel sport that is becoming popular at a California beach resort. Looking like a giant’s pillowcase, the “boards” are made from four yards of good-quality muslin, which becomes air-tight when wet. The cloth is doubled lengthwise and sewed along both sides with a triple row of fine stitches. Around the open end a strong hem is stitched. In use, the bag is first thoroughly soaked, and then filled with air by holding it open to the breeze or running a few paces with it. With a quick downward motion, the open end is pushed under water to trap the air and twisted shut like a paper bag. The rider then grasps the twisted end and takes off into the swells.

THRILLS and CHILLS for Your HALLOWE’EN Party

113,597 DOCTORS FROM COAST TO COAST WERE ASKED!

According to this recent Nationwide survey:

More Doctors Smoke Camels THAN ANY OTHER CIGARETTE!

This is no casual claim. It’s an actual fact. Based on the statements of doctors themselves to three nationally known independent research organizations.
THE question was very simple. One that you . .. any smoker . . . might ask a doctor: “What cigarette do you smoke, Doctor?”

Emergency Shower Bath Puts Out Clothing Fires
Laboratory and industrial workers, exposed to the hazards of inflammable materials and dangerous chemicals, will benefit by an emergency shower of new design. A tug on a hanging chain releases a torrent of water from an oversize head, to extinguish burning clothing or wash off spilled acid, as shown in the view at left.

Britain’s Walls of Fire

Awesome flame defenses protected Britain against Nazi invasion in 1940

FIVE years after Britain’s darkest days, when invasion threatened hourly, it is revealed that a barrier of flame would have met the Nazis if they had attempted to storm the English coast. The coast and adjacent waters would have been set afire. Oil tanks were sunk in hillsides; pipelines ran out under the sea.

I’m really interested to find out how this “graphometer” on page 7 works. At several points the graph seems to go backwards, which is a bit odd.

YOUR COLOR TYPE and how to live with it

Step right up, folks, and select a color to fit your personality. The correct hue will make you sparkle, says Louis Cheskin, top color expert, who offers tips on redecorating your home.

By Clifford B. Hicks

IF YOU ARE emotionally normal, your favorite color likely is a particular shade of blue and your wife feels a strong attraction for magenta-red.

Your small children — given a choice — select bright-red toys. If you are a farmer, you prefer a great many colors other than grass green, but if you work in a steel mill, grass green likely is one of your favorites.

You may not realize it, but you probably find a strong-blue room depressing, a vivid-yellow room head-splitting, a bright-red room nerve-wracking and a leaf-green room boring.

I’m really not sure how this microphone is supposed to vanish. Is it just small? Or made of lucite? Or does it come with skins so you can match an outfit? Or is it really some sort of super sophisticated active camoflauge system the military developed to hide…. um…. microphones?

Vanishing Microphone lets the starts shine

Now you see it, now you don’t!
RCA’s new “vanishing microphone” is plainly visible when standing alone—but let a television performer stand before it and it seems to disappear.

Am I the only one who thinks this looks like a floating bordello?

Floating Automobile Trailer Cruises Lake Under Own Power

When it’s not rolling down the highway, a trailer owned by a West Berlin woman is likely to be found cruising around a lake.
A pontoon raft turns the amphibious trailer into a houseboat. A small gasoline engine propels it when it’s in the water.

Fountains of Flame Played Like a Pipe Organ

By KENNETH M. SWEZEY

WATER, light, flame, music, and fireworks, synchronized into a vast extravaganza, are providing new entertainment thrills nightly as one of the most spectacular outdoor attractions of the New York World’s Fair.

This Lagoon of Nations display centers in a giant fountain which rises from an oval lake two blocks wide by four blocks long. Water, geysering in beautiful patterns from 1,400 nozzles, is painted in constantly changing rainbow hues by batteries of powerful electric lights from below. At climaxes in a performance, towering gas flames roar through the columns of scintillating water, from more than a hundred jets. Showers of fireworks burst overhead. Stirring music thunders an accompaniment to the display from the heart of the fountain.
