A Peaceful -Looking Hat Which 

 Makes You a Walking Arsenal 



HANDS UP!" is not such a 

 disconcerting command 

 after all, provided one wears 

 the hat shown in the accompany- 

 ing illustration. When the high- 

 wayman gives directions as to 

 how he would like to have you 

 hand over your \aluables, you 

 look him calmh' in the eyes and 

 then shoot him b\' simply blow- 

 ing a tube passing from the 

 mouth to the trigger of the gun 

 mounted in the top of the hat. 

 Several cartridges are provided 

 in the magazine, so your aim 

 need not be perfect. Further- 

 more, the recoil from the explo- 

 sions will not unseat the hat. 

 It cocks the hammer for the 

 next shot and ejects the used 

 shell. The cartridges 

 areautomatically fed to 

 the breech of the gun 



FINDER 



TOR USE ONLY IN ACUUSTINO 

 HELMET- IT IS THEN PUT OLT 

 OF THE WAY AND 6UN IS 

 fIREO By_INSTINCTlVE VISIOM 



The suit Is provided with numerous tubes 

 through which air parses to the wearer 



The gun is aimed by turning 

 the head and fired by blowing 

 through the tube in the mouth 



and when the magazine is 

 empty the trigger can not be 

 operated. A new magazine is 

 then substituted b}' removing 

 the hat. The gun is aimed 

 with the turning of the head 

 and by blowing through the 

 tube a bulb is expanded which 

 trips the cocked hammer, ex- 

 ploding the cartridge. When 

 detached from the base of the 

 helmet the crowned section 

 may be inverted and used as 

 a cooking utensil, the elon- 

 hood serving as the handle. 



Mechanical Lungs for the Protection 

 of the Fire-Fighter 



ASMOKE-IVIASK suit has been de- 

 vised which operates on the princi- 

 ple of the human lungs. Two tubes sup- 

 ply the wearer with oxygen from a tank 

 carried in a pocket attached to the suit, 

 one for the mouth antl the other for the 

 nose. The suit is pro\ided with numer- 

 ous air-circulating tubes connectetl with 

 the nose. The mouth exhalations 

 are carried to the tank and come in 

 contact with the purifying oxygen be- 

 fore the air is again breathed.
