Dfsfeveries by E~tAnoloEfst Of ths
JcsssD Expedition Shows origin
% Indlans and Asiatfes.

Vladimir Bogoras, ethnologist Of the
Jessup exploration party, who will
return to New York shortly to re.
port upon the results of his invests
cations in kamchatka and neighbor-
Ing regions, says that he found indis-
putable connection between the
American Indians and the Paleo-Asi.
attic races on the Behring sea. cost in
Kamchatka, and on the headwaters
Of the rivers which Else in the STAN.
ovol mountains.
"This result" says Bogoras,
SHOULD be sharply distinguished
from the discovery of close resem-
blances between the American and
the Asiatic Eskimo. The Indian and
Paleo-Asiatic languages are similar
in structure. and their mythologies
present additional proofs of common
origin. The Paleo-Asiatic languages
are OF American structure.
II believe the japanese to be q
mixed people-Mongols and Paleo-
!Asiatics. Concerning the peopling
of America, I have formed the n.y.
pothesis that this occurred at a peri
cd when the Malay archipelago, the
Philippines, Formosa, and the Japan-
csc islands either formed a continent
tai peninsula connected with Kam-
chatka or an unbroken series Of is
lands, and when Asia and Alaska
were connected"
Bogoras will report upon all these
matters more fully to the American
Museum Of Natural History.

NEW CURE.
DR.. Herbert Clapp, n Boston Expert
Says Cod Liver OIL 10 Not q
Necessary Agent.

In the fifth annual report Of the
trustees of the Massachusetts State
Sa~natorium at Rutland, Mass, an in.
stitution maintained by the state for
the ARE and cure of consumptiyes
free of expense, or ut a nominal cost
where patients are able to pay, DR..
Herbert Ciapp, an expert on tubers
culosis. made some interesting OBJ.
servations regarding the use Of alec.
mol and cod liver oil by consump.
tives.
His views indicate a change OF
views among medical men regarding
these supposed aids in curing the
dread disease. He says: st is in.
teresting to note that in the three
years during which our state sana-
torium has been in operation prac-
tically no alcohol whatever has been
used in the treatment of patients,
and yet our success has been phe.
nomenal.
"Our experience at Rutland for
three years would also seem to show
that cod liver oil is not. as many
practically believe. an indispensable
agent in the successful treatment OF
phthisis."
