PROTECTION AGAINST
BLOOD POISONING
**:.........................s,

Deaths from blood poisoning ap-
pear to be on the increase. Almost
every day the newspapers record
such fatalities as the outgrowth in
many instances of simple causes.
Not long ago it was reported that
Mrs. Kate Agnew. a resident of Nor
wood, Pa, was dying from gangrene
induced by tight shoes. They were
the same size to which she had been
accustomed, but of different shape
After wearing them day or two she
discovered a slight abrasion of the
skin. The next day her foot was con-
siderably swollen and a few days
later gangrene developed.
Elizabeth K. sixteen-year-old
Philadelphia girl, one day pricked
with her finger nail pimple she
had discovered on her lip. In few
days blood poisoning developed and
within a short time she was dead.
A farmer living near Norwich. N.
Y, died recently from blood poison
ing produced by scratch from his
pet cat, and Anton Wallace, after
suffering untold agony. passed away
in La Crosse, Wis, from the same
cause, but in his case it was brought
on by an liberated tooth.
In every household bottle of some
antiseptic fluid should be kept for
use in such emergencies. If the two
women mentioned had applied hot
water freely to the injured surface
and then applied peroxide of hydro
gen, listerine, solution of carbolic
acid or some other antiseptic, it is
not impossible that they would be
alive to-day. There are gummy prep
arations for sale by druggists to take
the place of court plaster and which
will not wash of. Such plasters are
excellent to apply to cuts or burns to
protect the injured cuticIe against in
lection until the new skin grows.

Senator 0ryden's Modesty.

Senator Dryden of New Jersey has
fully established reputation for
modesty and courtesy since he has
been a member of the senate. AS the
president of one of the greatest life
insurance companies in the world and
a man of affairs, who is Hnown in the
business world as hustler" the
New Jersey senator might be expect
ed to have a bearing indicative of
hurry and importance. The fact is
exactly the opposite. Until the door
keepers of the senate became well
acquainted with the New Jersey sena-
tor the latter always politely In
formed them of his identity as he re-
quested the privilege Of entering the

WHERE LIFE BEGINS.
Question That is in Many Respects
UnansWerable.


Unanswerable.
At what point does life begin? So
far as regards space or time, the
question is unanswerable. Only few
weeks ago it would have been said
that in regard to that seemingly es-
sentiaI condition of life temperature
we did know pretty nearly superior
and inferior limit. Little of life Is
there below the freezing or above the
or below these critical points we
should expect even germ life to be
destroyed, says the London Telegram.
When our greatest physicist. in 1871,
suggested that seeds of plants might
have been borne to this world in a
fardistant age. the hypothesis seem
ed Incredible. because the tempera-
ture of space, being at least as low
as minus 140 degrees Centrigrade.
would be fatal to life in any form.
This is not so. Recently at the Jen-
ner Institute bacteria have been fro
zen in liquid air and even in liquid
hydrogen. and on the application of
heat and placed in proper media
have germinated. The processes of
life were arrested. but the nascent
life-energy was not destroyed at 200
degrees Centigrade, say. 800 degrees
Fahrenheit of frost. Experiments are
now being made to find whether long
continuance for months or years In
such cold takes away the vitalism of
these lowest forms of life.

ABOUT TURIN HOLY sHRoUD.
Remarkable Photographs OF the Mi
raculous Winding Sheet.

IaSu'oub winning Sncet.
M. Vignon read a most interesting
paper at the last meeting of the Aca-
denny of Sciences and exhibited
some photographs which he had taken
OF the winding sheet preserved at
Turin and traditionally said to be that
OF Christ. This winding sheet has on
1t certain markings printed in
brown color which when photograph
ed give a white imprint. as does a
negative when printed from. These
markings, therefore, act as a true
negative. and NJ. Vignon has shown
by certain and very careful expert
ments that cloth impregnated with
OIL and aloes, as was the winding
sheet in question, will receive an i'm
preston when in contact with am
moniacal vapors such as would be
given Off from sweat very rich in
urea, as is the case in the sweat of
person dying lingering and pain

Any idea of fraud need not be con-
sidered, for no one has touched this
winding sheet since 1853. and no
painter at that date had the skill to
impression of the head is excellent.
The wounds produced by the crown of
thorns and the marks of the blood
drops are quite obvious. The wound
in the side and even the marks of the
stripes produced on the back by the
fagellation are also quite evident.
Each of these stripes has at its end
its enlargement such as would be
produced by cord with ball of
lead at the end. 1t is well known
that this form of scourge was en-
ployed by the Roman soldiers and
such one has been found at Pompeii.

arms are not in the palm OF the hand.

On the fourth morning the camp
was astir with a new alarm. The ma
tives had surprised the camp with an
attack. There was hurry and con-
fusion on all sides: there had been no
indication that the natives would at

Halls heart sank as he listened to the
sounds of battle from the plain below.
He stood at the door of the tent ana
his anxiety grew with every moment;
presently the stress of the situation
drew him down the slope. to point
from which he could watch the move

Davids intent gaze was upon the
natives as they steadily advanced;
the defense was breaking. losing
ground with every moment. There
was an effort on the part of the men
to hold together and close around the
hospital tents. but the suddenness of
the attack made even this movement
uncertain.
Suddenly from the hill road came
signal of pistol shots; then Dave
heard the clatter of horses hoofs
on the bridge above. and single
horseman was seen rapidly crossing
the open stretch OF road along the
hill slope. The rider disappeared. as
the downward curve of the road
wound under the trees, but his appear
ance had a magical effect on the all
but defeated men.
"Walton! Walton!" come the en-
thusiastic cry, as the men drew to-
gether again.
Walton! Walton!" The plain rang
with the name, and the natives, in
confusion. broke and fell back, scat
tering as they ran.
"Walton!"
David Hall had taken up the cheer,
and he ran up the road to greet the
dashing horseman whose picturesque
heroism had made him famous in the
island warfare.

Here is the brief history of Logan.
His name was Tah-gah-jute. He was
the son of Cayuga chief and assumed
the name of Logan to do honor to
his friend, the acting governor of
Pennsylvania. He lived in Pennsyl-
vania and on the Virginia frontier from
1920 to 1870, when he removed to the
shores of the Ohio with his family. He
was brave chief, of noble presence.
always friendly to white people. and
endeared himself to them by his many
noble qualities and sturdy friendship.
He was favored CD with unlimited
quantities of liquor, and became very

white men assassinated every mem

WHITE PATCHES ON THE MOON
Thought by an American Observer
to Be Snow, But English Scien-
fist Says Not.

From a series of photographs taken
in Jamaica few months ago, Prof. W.
ii. Pickering has concluded that
small amount of snow may exist on the
moons surface. He noticed in particu-
lar that the great walled plain of Plato
shows a regular progressive change
during the lunar day. White patches
are seen upon its floor. which, as the
sun rises higher above it, diminish in
size and vanish; and these, Mr.. Pick
ering believes to be snow. In an article
entitled: Changes on the Moon-Real
and Apparent" in the Pail Mall Maya
zine, Mr.. E. Walter Maunder states his
reasons for believing that Mr.. Picker
ing is mistaken, reports the ST. Louis
Republic.
The observation itself may be ac-
cepted. Indeed, there is nothing novel
about it. Such changes in the illumina-
ton of the floor of Plato are described
in all the textbooks, and, so far as his
observations have yet come to hand,
they appear to contain nothing new.
For to have snow we must have an
appreciate atmosphere, capable of
sustaining water vapor; and that the
moon has no such atmosphere we
