In the summer of 1902, for the first time, the whir of reaping machines was heard In the grain fields of the ancient land of Syria. The machines came from Chicago and when, little later, -thrashing machine, made in Indiana, was set to work in ele-Syria, there was some excite ment among the native farmers. Be fore the reapers appeared on the plain of Esdraelon American windmills had been introduced. and later in the year a flour mill, with machinery and an oil-motor engine from Indianapolis be- gan grinding wheat in Lebanon. So the year 1902 is a notable one in the advance of practical science over the old Bible lands.

Professor Redard of Geneva, Switz- erland, successfully empoys music to soothe and tranQuilize the dreams of persons who have taken ether or chlo- roform In order to undergo surgical op- erations. The music Is begun as soon as the anesthetlc begins to take effect, and Is continued until the patient awakes. It Is said that not only does this treatment prevent the hysterical effects sometimes witnessed, but the patient, on recovering, feels no nausea or illness. Professor Redard also uses blue light to produce anesthesia. The light from a 16-candle-power electric lamp, furnished with blue bulb, is concentrated upon the patients eyes, but the head and the lamp are enyel- oped In a blue veil, to shut out extrane- ous light. Insensibllity Is produced in two or three minutes

for McGovern, but without success.
Aside from notifying the police, a
watch was kept at the railroad stations
ut Glenbrook and Sound Beach In the
belief that McGovern would board
train for New York.
The fact that McGovern escaped
from the sanitarium was not made pub
lie until an hour and a half after he
disappeared. as Il was thought that he
would soon be found.
McGovern had expressed desire 10
go TO New York. but II was believed
that he had become reconciled TO stay

playing tennis for a time he suggested
a walk and was put in charge of one
OF the regular keepers. The keeper
and McGovern had been gone but
fe0 minutes when the former ran back
to the sanitarium and told OF Terrys

McGovern. according to the sanitari-
um physicians. is suffering from ner-
vous, mental and physical exhaustion.

here several months.
