Prof. Schenk, of the Vienna univer-

DIR. Schenk for more than 80 years has
been absorbed in studying the develop
ment OF the human and lower animal
embryos, and Is the recognized leading
authority In that branch Of science. He
published in 1867 the first essay upon
the development of the embryonal
heart, and since then has written a
whole library on the development of
man and beast from the oyum or egg.
He is a thoroughly serious scientist,
who does not exploit his discovery for
money. He refuses to treat patients for
fees, however tempting. The CORE
spondent asked:
Can you give me positive, direct in
formation Of your discovery with re-
gard TO the treatment of women aRx-
