successfully applied to natural SCI
ence research, microscopy, electrical
and physical phenomena, medical sci
ence. chemistry and anthropology.
and latest of all to a native devil
dance in Borneo. The march of civili-

for placing them on record. And In
this work the moving picture is the
IDEAL agent. for by it's aid is obtained

New Medical Science

Medical climatology, medical
writer tells us, is developing into a
science. 1t is an American science,
for 1t is in America, where the many
types of men are out of their natural
habitat. that the habit of seeking a
change of climate as general cure.all
has become almost universal. The
kind of change needed is gradually be.
coming understood. A dry and brac.
ing climate is not adapted to all per.
sons and sunshine is too stimulating
for many, while damp and fog seem to
be necessary for certain nervous peo.
pie and perhaps all blends. An eaua.
BILE, relaxing climate acts as a sedatiye
in disease of heart and kidneys.
