Cure for ST. vltus' Dance.

DR.. jacques Loeb of Chicago has dis
covered that muscular and nervous dis
eases, such as St. Vltus' dance, paraly-
sis, locomotor ataxia and sleeplessness
can be cured by administering calcium
salts-that is, such salts as are found
in well water and many foods.
The announcement of this discovery
in scientific research has just been
made. In one of the publications just
issued by the University of Chicago
DR.. Loeb tells of his experiments on
lower forms of life and the conclusions
suggested in regard to human beings.
Simply stated, the conclusion is that
the presence of calcium salts is what
prevents muscular twitching; that
practically all nervous diseases are
caused by the absence of calcium, and
therefore to restore normal conditions
and effect a cure the treatment is to
dose with calcium salts.

day.
AS all the athletic events that will
be held during the year will take place
under the rules of the Amateur Athletic
union, whereby athletes who compete
must be amateurs and registered ath-
letes, the committee discussed at
length just how they would proceed
IN regard to the foreign athletes right
to compete without registration. After
long discussion, John j. O'Connor
and Fl. c. Garneau, representatives of
the Western association of Amateur
Athletic union, which controls this dis
trict, decided that their association
would register free of charge all ath-
letes from any foreign country who
have with them or send with their en-
tries a statement from the secretary.
or president, of the athletic associa-
ton governing sport in that country
to the effect that they are amateurs
and eligible to compete. This settles
what promised to be an intricate mat
ter to handle.
