According to United States Consul

attention has been given to a treatise
read by DR.. Fournol at the May session
of the Paris Academy of Medicine, rec
ommending hypodermic injections of
sea water against tuberculosis. DR..
Fournol, together with another physi-
cian,, has prepared a sea water serum,
which possesses the property of in
creasing the blood pressure He treat
ed "a patients at Paris hospital with
it. Some of these suffered with recent
tuberculosis of the lungs, others for
old tuberculosis of the bones. In all
cases distinct improvement was
noticeable in the local as well as in the
general condition. 1t is stated in Ger
man papers that the results appeared
SO important to the members OF the
academy that it was resolved to notify
the tuberculosis commission, SO as to
make further experiments.

thriller-so thrilling that doubts nat
urally arise. Did you count them?
Did you measure it? Did You weigh

this season just the same as other

with doubts, misgivings-a suspicion
that is byYgno means carefully con

have been tempered with To brand
any narrative as "a fish story" is to
discredit ut thoroughly i and COM n
pletely.
Many ingenious methods have been
employed, says the Baltimore Amer
lean, to circumvent the doubters and
to clear the stored achievements Of
fishermen from disparaging queries
and ungracious innuendoes. In recent
years the camera has come into gen.
eral use as the fisherman's friend

truth-teller. that reveals the facts just
as they were. On the desk in the office
the photograph shows up To the

the background there is a glimpse OF a
boat and some water The picture
ought to be convincing to anybody, to
everybody, but somehow it is never ac-
cepted as unimpeachable evidence.
The camera, it is well known, can be
made TO prevaricate in several differ

Ingenious as it is, photographing the
catch has failed to carry conviction to
