This complete respiratory 

 outfit, consisting of a lung 

 motor and o.vygen gener- 

 ator, is claimed to be sim- 

 ple in operation and excep- 

 tionally valuable for use in 

 cases of poisoning from 

 gases and fumes, mining ac- 

 cidents, electric shock, ap- 

 parent drowning, smoke

HOWARDS IDEAL BATHING CAP. 



The primary purpose of bathing caps, namely, to keep the hair 

 dry, is claimed to be achieved in an unusually successful manner 

 in the cap shown herewith, by means of a peculiar form of 

 construction. This cap is made of pure gum, with tapered in- 

 stead of the customary square-cut sides. It is meeting with 





approval among professional swimmers and divers, as well as 

 those frequenting swimming pools and the seashore for pleasure 

 only, since it affords complete protection for the hair and may 

 be worn under any form of fancy silk cap, if desired. [The Ohio 

 Rubber Co., 228-230 W. Seventh street, Cincinnati, Ohio.] 



THE HANDY RUBBER BAND. 



Advice to anglers is given by "All 'Outdoors" to the fol- 

 lowing effect: 



A half dozen rubber bands are handy things to have with 

 you when you start out to whip a stream and leave your rod 

 case behind. The bands are easily carried and serve nicely 

 to hold your rod joints together when your day's sport is 

 over and the rod is taken apart. String does not answer the 

 purpose as well, and a case is in the way. You certainly 

 need something to hold the joints together if you have any 

 walking to do. unless you wish to have them spreading out 

 and calling for your constant attention. 



THE "J. T." WIND-SHIELD CLEANER. 



In the wMnd-shield cleaner shown in the accompanying illustra- 

 tion the familiar "squeegee" principle is utilized. .A strip of rub- 

 ber is mounted on an arm which is connected through a pivotal 

 joint with a similar arm, or handle, on the driver's side of the 

 shield. To clean the wind-shield the ruljber is moved about in a 



circular direction by means of the handle. This handy accessory 

 is supplied in three styles, show^n herewith, two having removable 

 rear arms, so that attachment can be made through the glass or 

 the wind-shield frame, respectively, and the third being provided 



with a spring clip at the pivot joint to be sprung over the frame. 

 These cleaners are easy to apply and present a good appearance 

 on the car. [The J. T. Auto Devices Co., 3535 Euclid avenue,

THE "LEGAL" DATER. 



The new dater here illustrated is designed to combine a variety 

 of uses w'ith compactness of form, it is a self-contained type 

 dating device that can be car- 



ried in the pocket, and in- 

 cludes all the elements of 

 self-inking and type chang- 

 ing, thus facilitating its ap- 

 plication at all places and un- 

 der any conditions. 



The die is mounted on a 

 round, molded rubber air 

 cushion arranged with mor- 

 tise for the standard size 

 date. The dates themselves 

 are arranged in a grooved 

 cylindrical block wdiich forms 

 the core of the case, the other 

 side of the block being re- 

 cessed to carry a tub-e of ink and a pair of tweezers. The inking 

 pad. which is in constant contact with the printing die when the 



stamp is closed, is contained in 

 the cover or cap ; simply remov- 

 ing this makes the stamp ready 

 to print. 



A special modern feature is the 



provision for cancellation of rev- 



iNFLATABLt/ „T/ euuc stamps. [The R. H. Smith

This self-draining syringe is complete, sani- 

 tary and simple in operation. It is hand-made, 

 of thick, soft red rubber with a highly polished 

 finish. There are no water valves nor other 

 metal parts to corrode, and no hard rubber 

 attachments. The inflatable envelope surround- 

 ing the nozzle acts as an adjustable guard, pre- 

 venting injected fluid from es- 

 caping. By means of a small 

 inflating bulb, provided with 

 the syringe, the envelope is 

 easily inflated to the required 

 size, and this inflatable feature 

 conforms the nozzle into a 

 vaginal dilator of value to
