At the meeting of the American Public
Health Association in Denver last week,
DR.. Valiere, director of the National
School of Medicine of Mexico and DR..
L4iceaga, president of the supreme board
of health of Mexico, read interesting pa
pers on the treatment of yellow fever.
DIR. VALERIE announced the discovery by
him of certain cure for the fever, which
he says he has already successfully used
in hundreds of cases. The treatment is
by incubation by the simultaneous in
lection in the cellular tissues of the arm
of urine taken from patient between the
fourth and fourteenth days of the fever.
The fever, he says, can be guarded against
in this manner, just as smallpox can by
vaccination. DIR. Liceaga claimed that
the disease must be combatted by inocu-
lation with blood serum from persons al
ready attacked, or with blood serum from
animals that have acquired immunity.

A Real Hustler.

An amusing story comes from the stu
dos of Paris, says the Pan Mall Gazette.
In many Of the impressionist schools of
artists washing blue is largely employed
to produce the tints which will best con-
Vey mysterious and aesthetic effects. =
young artist lately took two of his new
est inspirations, in which starch had been
largely consumed, to one of the we'll
known dealers in Paris and the latter.
plying, rather than admiring offered q:
small sum for both pieces and consented
to place them on show. The next day a
tall American presented himself in the
shop and, drawing out his check book
eagerly demanded the price of one OF
the pictures.
For a moment the dealer was tempted
to believe in the whims of his protegt,
and the wisdom of his purchase But the
American was no illusionist if the artist
was. He said
Il guess, sir, it doesn't matter much to
me what this picture does or does NOT
represent this noble blue comes from
my own factory in Chicago. l knew ii az
once by the azure tint, which is a secret
of our firm. We call it Freshness ana
Beauty Starch, that's what we call it.
He then obtained the address of the ar

large picture with the inscription: This
