sUccoRs A WOUNDED ANT
Lord Aveling Convinced That the
Tiny Insect Is Really Pos

Lord Eveling. better known as Sir
John Lubbock, the famous scientist
writes: In one of my nests was an
ant which had come into the world
without antennae. Never having pre-
yiously met with such a case. I
watched her with great interest, but
she never appeared TO leave the nest.
AT length one day | found her wander

After some time another ant from the
same nest came by. She examined the
poor sufferer carefully, then picked
her up and carried her away into the

anyone who had witnessed the scene

SAVES THE PUPILS TEETH
Germany Has Dental Clinics foI
Schools in Every One Of the
Larger Cities.

The dental statistics gathered in many
European cities have revealed such an
alarming condition Of affairs that Ger
many, at least, has decided to adopt
combatiye measures. In all large towns
dental clinics have been founded, con-
s4sung, as a rule, Of specially fitted-up
rooms In one Of the central schools.
Fully qualified dentists are appointed,
who devote their whole time to their du-
ties, but in Stuttgart the work is done
voluntarily by the local dentists. That
such a movement is necessary can
scarcely be doubted when one learns that
OF many thousands Of boys and girls ex-
amined from the ages Of eight to IS only
two per cent had a perfectly healthy
set OF teeth To give an idea Of the
amount Of work done in a year at Darn
stadt schools II is necessary to quote
the figures Of 1903. During the year
1876 children we're examined and 1861
teeth We're filed, while 1871 were ex-
tracted. In Strassburg 2666 children
were examined. 500 teeth we're filed and
1912 were extracted. Another interest
ing fact is that 40 per cent. Of all teeth
examined were bad. The method Of
work is simple; the teacher takes his
class TO the dentist, who examines each
mouth quickly and marks on the card
which each child has brought with it
whether treatment is necessary. II so
the child must come again on a Satur-
day. Russia is also joining In the
movement, and has already fitted up
nine such institutions in ST Petersburg
alone, while Moscow has also several.

PHYSICIANS FEE
WAS INCREASED
Will be Allowed S. for Ex-
amining and Committing
Insane Persons
Ivy COURT PASSES BILLS

By-a unanimous vote the Levy Court
this morning passed a resolution al
lowing physicians who examine and
commit insane persons to the Delaware
State Hospital at Farnhurst s. for each
person committed, instead of $3.50 as is
now the case.
The subject was brought to the at
tention Of the court by Drs. Peter w.
Tomlinson and Joseph p. Wales. and
was recommended by the finance COM
mittee. Several years ago physicians
were allowed IS for the examination OF
alleged insane people, no matter
whether they were committed or not.
Three years ago the court cut the fee
down to $3.50 with the proviso that
such sum should be paid II patients
were committed. In view Of the fact.
however. that the commitment of a
person TO. a hospital for the insane is
a grave matter the court felt that ply
sicians should be paid more for their
services than they receive at present.
