Sev- eral lives are lost annually by acci- dental electrocutions which take place in bath tubs. In sante instances these deaths have been popularly attributed to faulty insulation. But it has been shown that a bather standing in a tub of water, by turning a switch with his wet hand may cause enough moisture to penetrate the electric socket and establish a circuit , thereby permitting the current to pass fra,n the_ wires, through his body into the water and thence to the ground. Thus the body acts very much as a lightning rod, Electrocution may occur if one hand in a washbowl of water and the other, being wet, is used to turn a switch. If only the key is touched and no mois- ture penetrates, of course no ill effects will fellow. Fatalities are believed to have resulted also when a bather in a tub has accidentally struck Isis head against a projecting light socket. --- Popular Mechanics. LAR LIME COUGHED UNTIL.
