weeks. 1t is good policy TO keep the
hogs in a dry lot while they are being
treated for worms, SO that when the
treatment is over the litter containing
the segments and eggs OF the para
sites, may be raked up and burned,
thus preventing one source of re-in-
lection of the pigs. II the hogs do not
appear to be doing well, the treatment
should be repeated in six weeks or
two months time.
Farmers. as rule. do not give
enough attention to the treatment of
their pigs for worms. 1t is very low
estimate to say that the farmers of
Iowa annually lose more than S1,o00,-
600 from this source alone.

openly anti vice and lawlessness. He
said he wanted two years as mayor to

splendid patriotism and political truth
was quietly put into the cook stove
because it bore the sign manual of the
great "infidel." Argument and explain

Tho Uncle and Aunt One.


Mrs. Hollingsworth Andrews, of
Philadelphia, is, one OF the best whist
players in America She will not, how
ever. play for money. She holds that
no mother should gamble.
Mrs. Armstrong, at the end OF a dis
cussion on gambling, said the other
day:
Never play for stake is you have
children, and never say to your partner
in any case at the end of The game, IT
you had done this or that the outcome
would have been different Whenever
I have partner of the II you had

"Cavendish, the famous whist ex-

you had done so-and so, we'd have
made so-andso, always replied:
Ibid you ever hear the story of
your uncle and your aunt?
IF the player had heard it he would
at once become silent, not wishing to
hear it again. If he had not heard it
he would nause in his post-mortem OF
the game, and say:

"Then Cavendish would frown and
say in solemn voice:

Medicine in Ancient Egypt.
(Records.of the Past. J


There is much evidence in inscrip-
tons and manuscripts that the ancient
Egyptians practiced medicine and SUI :
gerry extensively. Probably their prao-
tice was based on little knowledge OF
anatomy. Each physician treated only
one or two diseases. The sick were
exposed in public places so that others
who had suffered similarly might tell
them of helpful remedies. Diseases of
the eye were best understood and re-
ceived both medical and surgical treat
ment. The most important medical
manuscript found in Egypt is the
Papyrus Ebers, written 5000 3 G., and
discovered in Memphis. Disease, acc
cording TO the Egyptians. was due 10

al the intercollegiate regatta for the
eighth time this evening II the mo- t
exciting contest ever rowed over the
four mile Poughkeepsie course. Cor
nelrs time was 20:02 20. Columbia
was second, the Naval Academy third,
Pennsylvania fourth, Wisconsin fifth
and Georgetown sixth Syracuse did
not finish, her shell being swamped
half mile from the finish.
The Ithacans won by the narrowest
margin from Columbia and until the
finish line was crossed and the judges
announced that Cornell had won, the
spectators were in doubt as to which
crew won.
Cornell and Columbia fought for
honors of the race over the whole
four miles and at no time during the
entire distance were the two shells
more than twenty-five feet apart.
Columbia Led for Three Miles.
Columbia led for over three miles
and Cornell took the lead only to lose

mendous spurt shot the nose Of her
shell out in the lead and swept over
the finish under the glare of the
searchlight ON board the United
States monitor Arkansas. five feet
ahead of Columbia. The Annapolis
crew rowed a magnificent race and
finished two lengths behind Columbia.

vainly TO cut down the slight lead but
could not and Cornell slipped over the
