CURE FOUND FOR LoCKJAW.
Calcium and Potassium Salts Will Do
the Work

Chicago, August IA cure for lockjaw
has been discovered by DIR. S. A. Mat
thews, of the University of Chicago, and
has been successfully used in treating
George Newman, South Chicago.
DR. Matthews method OF treatment Is
the injection OF a solution Of calcium ana
potassium salts. The injection was given
Newman a week ago while he was suffer-
ing from extremely severe tetanus
spasms and he is now declared to be we'll
on the way to health.
The new cure is diuretic. The problem
which DR. Matthews has worked out is
to get the proper combination of salts to
bring about the effect desired Now that
1t has been found the doctors say that
the same principle can be applied to cure
snake bites blood poisoning and other
diseases caused by toxins In the body.

Something Of What Vast Clouds AS
cend From Hazard.
Everybody There Smokes, and the
Amount Is Thousands of Dol
lars Year.
NOTHING DAN STOP

st. Louis, Feb. IA Cambridge,
Mass, telegram said few weeks ago
Carrie Nation paid visit to Harvard
for the purpose of convincing Harvard
men of the error of their ways-espe-
cially as to smoking.
Little she understood the hopeless
ness of her task. Little she understood
that the Harvard man is reared in to-
bscco from his freshman infancy; that
he takes TO cigarettes as easily IS a
duck does to water; that the atwos-
phere of Harvard is as pro-pipe, pro-
cigar, pro-oigsrette as it is anti Yale ;
hat even the instructors, sauntering
through the college yard, give their ST.
lent appreciation of the "vice" by
putting away at anything from a Re-
gala to q cigarette.
Il would take 4 thousand Carries TO
cure Harvard of the smoking habit.
Il would take new faculty, . set Of
more serious minded instructors, and
an uphesvsl in the social customs Of
the university that would go far in
blotting the crimson from the college
mp. Ii would mean the going out Of
business of any number Of tobacco
dealers who live on student trade. IL
would mean big cut in the annual
profits of cigarette manufacturers. 1t
would mean few less tens of thous-
ands of twenty five and fifty cent Gig
ars, shipped from tropical isles for the
wealthy young nabobs of the wealthy
clubs. And it would mean the de-
struction of that strong bond Of social
intercourse which tobacco now forms
between the student and the professor
over him.
The, Sunday school papers every
now and then moralize about the
homes and barns and stores and tene-
ment houses that are burned each year
in the mouths Of men. Doubtless II
they turned their metaphorical eyes
toward Harvard they could see cloud
Of smoke, vast and black and porten-
tious, rising to the heavens, as though
department stores and public Libraries
and museums buildings much more
valuable than wooden-framed houses
were passing away in smoke. And
whether they saw this or not the fact
would still be that Harvard men each
year smoke money enough to keep the
poor in many q large city warm and
comfortable during the bitter winter
months.
Smoking at Harvard is an all-day
process. IL is also a varied one. The
man whose smoking has become an art
gets up in the morning and reaches for
his cigarette case. His next move II
for match; his next for his bsthrobe,
his slippers and his towel. Then he
makes for the bath room. where, with
head thrown back, he let's the shower
play over his chest and legs, putting
calmly away the while. The shower
bath at Harvard thus can be termed
one Of the greatest institutions of that
university.
