A 10-year-old girl, he said, would have

Surely the test was not a fair one,
and Mr.. Gregson has a right to receive
back his presents. There is hardly a
man living who would endure bad
dinner, however much in love he might
be. Did not even the love-lorn swain
of Solomon's Song ask to be stayed
with flagons and comforted with ap-
pies? Fate cannot harm mel have

to account for her desire to keep Mr..
Gregson's gifts after treating him SO
abominably. His failure in patience
was a small fault compared with her
fiendish ingenuity in tormenting him.

BILE to the eye, or the microscope, are
rendered apparent, and the actions Of
putrefactive bacteria, may be studied
with comparative ease. Large complex
molecules, such as occur with proteids,
potato starch, etc, are rendered visi-
BILE.
The early experiments with this new
microscope indicated that it was
adapted to use only with liquids, and
studies of glycogen, proteids, etc, of
great exactitude were reported. Re-
Gently 1t has been found that the focal
illumination is particularly adapted to
the study of living organisms, such as
bacteria. 1t is claimed that micro
organisms one-fourth of a micromilli-
metre in size can be readily distin-
guished in form without tedious pre-
liminary incubation, staining or other
processes.
Practically all the work with the
ultra-microscope has been done abroad.
In applying the method to proteid So
buttons glittering moving particles are
observed which vary in number with
the concentration or strength of the
solution.
These particles are believed to be
protein molecules or molecular groups.
Several German investigators conceiv-
ed the idea of diluting the solution I'M
der observation until minimum
number, say three or four, of these
glittering particles could be observed
at any one time within a given field
of vision. The amount of dilution
gives a cumulative value of their de-
termination, and this has been desig
of course, with different substances
all the way from $50 to 100000 In
other cases, horse-serum, which had

value of 100000.
AS an example of how studies in di-
gestion and similar chemical combina-
tons may be carried out the follow
ing abstract is quoted Twenty cubic
centimetres of fat-free milk diluted
with distilled water to 100 cubic CEN
timetres, had an ultra-value of 100000,
and showed large particles and parti-
cles which were smaller and less gilt
tering. Treated with a tenth gram
of pepsin and fourteenth gram of
rs per cent. hydrochloric acid, this
quantity of fat-free milk had an I'LL
tra-value of 100000 after standing in
the incuba ting closet two hours and
an ultra-value of 100000 after stand
ing twenty-four hours. This remark
able increase in the number of visible
particles was confirmed by control ex-
periments. After standing sixty-two
hours the value decreased to 100000
and none of the large particles was
observed" In a diastase solution the
glycogen particles were visible in a
dilution of one to 100000, and had a
size of about one 500, 000th of milli-
meter, or less than "a ten-millinths Of
an inch. This enables the medical in
vestigator to observe albumins in so
luton with the certainty of the guam
titative determination of sugar by the
polarization method. one of the most
sensitive and delicate determinations
known to physical science. The de-
termination of the form of bacteria
without staining or culture media con-
stitutes an enormous advance, as it
not only expedites such work, allow
ing the determinations to be made in
stantly, but 1t permits the observer to
watch the effect of bactericidal and
antiseptic substances and electric cur
rents on micro-organismS.

two worked across the island to the

microscope May Make 1T Possible to

From the Philadelphia Record.
The microscope has been improved
recently by simple invention to such
an extent that it seems probable par
ticles the size of the theoretical MOLE
Guile may he rendered visible. The ad-
dition to the microscope that accom-
plishes this wonderful visual achieve
ment is based on a simple and we'll
known principle. Every one has OBJ
served that a beam OF sunlight in a
darkened room renders visible the
notes in the air that are too small
to be perceived under ordinary con-
ditions. Two European savants, Sled
entopf and Zsigmondy, worked out
microscope attachment which would
collect light into concentrated beam
and then throw II in a horizontal di-
rection across the field of vision and
at right angles to the line of vision
through the microscope. The result
ing transformation. in the field Is in
credible. Astronomers are fond of tell
ing Of the million Of stars visible
through their powerful instruments
which are not visible to the naked eye,
and still countless other millions that
are too faint 10 affect the retlna OF the
eye, but which are strong enough to
leave a lasting impression on the sem
sitive photograph plate. The illurni-
nation of the focal field OF the miscro-
scope by a horizontal beam OF concern

the same impression as the astronomer
receives when looking through his most
powerful Instruments.

he was, to rise to the surface and
stay there long enough to breathe.
Yet he dared not drop the weight,
for he knew he could not get down
to the bottom again. So he worked,
with Watanabe paying out the rope,
until he felt the bottom rising and
knew he was beyond the middle Of
the stream. Almost senseless, Taxa

out the letter of his orders and reach

Japanese nature could stand such a
test, and Watanabe, waiting on the
bank, felt the long, steady pull on the

soon had the unconscious sergeant
major out of the water.
A brisk rubbing and the contents of

and started back with the corporal
across the island. But when they
reached the place where them had left

CONSUMPTION IS
EASILY CURED
Discovery Has Been Made
by Prof. Benson.
No Drugs Used, but Cure Is Made by
the Use of Medicated Air
in Lungs.

The Georgia State tuberculosis Con-
vention which convened in Macon Ca
Oct. IS, agreed that tuberculosis could
be cured and a committee was organ
lied to devise means of stamping out
this disease. The committee is COM
posed of prominent physicians from
every part of the state. 1t seems that
the sentiments of the Georgia conVen-
ton are the same as those of the In
ternational tuberculosis Congress-
which convened in st. Louis in the
early part of the month. While the
Georgia convention said nothing per-
tanning to the Bensonizer System the
action of the international congress
placed great stress upon it,
1t seems that there have been many
remarkable cures of tuberculosis made
by the use of the Bensonizer system.
This treatment is a. new one and when
scientifically applied is said to effect a
permanent cure The theory Is to
breathe a medicated air into the throat
and lungs. BY deep breathing this
medcated air seems to permeate every
part of the lungs and to destroy the
tuberculosis germ. 1t stands to reason
that an instrument like the Benson1zer
enabling consumptives to cure them
selves at home and at little expense
should be received with much Joy by
the large number of people more or
less afflicted with pulmonary diseases.
Prof. Benson, who discovered this sys-
tenn of self-treatment by the means
of medicated air, has already won
fame throughout the civilized world
While the medical fraternity is slow
in taking up anything that is not
eff v,ictIxF nf the
most distinguished physicians both in
America and Europe have thoroughly
tested the Bensonizer System and pro-
nounce ii one of the greatest discov-
cries of the present century.
The tendency among the medical fra
ternlty nowadays is to get away from
the use of nauseating drugs. The Ben
sonizer treatment is an application OF
practical, common sense directly to the
lungs of people afflicted with consump-
ton.
Everyone who is at all familiar with
the physical life knows that 1t is the
oxygen in the air permeating through
the lungs that gives vitality to the
body. The Bensonizer enables one to
breathe the largest amount of oxygen
possible and at the same time to get
the benefit of its use in every part of
the lungs.
This article is simply to call the at
tention of people afflicted with con-
sumption to the Bensonizer treatment.
The Bensonizer Company can furnish
you with special instructions about the
matter. If you are afflicted or know
any one who is afflicted with Tubercu-
losis, either write or have them write
