ONLY CAUSES OF DEATH

come into common use are obtained from
the domestic animals, and only a few of
the domestic animals are susceptible to
the diseases which human beings are heir
to.
'erhe anti-toxin for diphthera, for in
stance, is obtained from horses. The
process is this: A horse is inoculated
with diphtheria germs. He gets the dis
ease. More and more germs are inocu-
lated until finally they produce no effect
No signs of the disease show themselves.
That condition proves that the anti-toxin
has been manufactured in the horses
blood sufficient to make him immune.
Then an amount of the horses blood is
drawn and the serum is separated from
1t. for 1t is in the serum that the anti
toxin lies. This serum is then ready for
incubation In human beings afflicted with
diphtheria.
Now, this is all right for diphtheria,
but it is not so for many other diseases.
The horse is not susceptible to them. And
of the animals susceptible many die so
quickly when a germ has been admins
tered that the anti-toxin is not formed.
pig, for instance, will take typhoid
fever, but it kills him at once. This un-
susceptibility of animals to immunization
is the greatest obstacle might say the
only serious obstacle-that stands between
man and the quick cure of all germ dis
eases.
This great obstacle, nevertheless, can
be overcome by using the criminals In
our penitentiaries for the production of
anti-serums. law making the punish
ment for certain crimes optional with tina
convicted-imprisonme on the one hand;
incubation with certain disease germs on
the other-would solve the problem for all
time. With the work in the hands of ex-
perienced men, chosen for the medical
acumen, and not by political influence.
human-produce anti-toxin could be furn-
ished which would supply the medical pro-
fesison for all, or nearly all, the known
diseases due to germs. And it would not
be dangerous to the subjects, either.
IF the above suggestion is too radical
for adoption in the present state OF pub
lie opinion, much good can still be done
if the state and national governments
will cooperate with the medical pro-
fesion In the works of investigation and
manufacture. Anti-toxin produced by
corporations are placed at SO high a figure
that they are beyond the reach of the
poor. and are such a drain upon the rich
that a disinclination to their use is pro-
duced
This obstacle to the rapid develop
ment of the twentieth century medicine
could be overcome by generous state
and municipal aid. Not such as is now
provided for the production of vaccine
virus, but large and generous appro-
priation that would induce competent and
capable men to establish an institution
for the production Of anti-toxin that
could be sold well within the reach of all.
THE state now gives many thousands
to the college and experimental station
in order that methods for forcing spring
onions may be found. or means to kill a
plant louise discovered. Why not give
as many thousands TO an anti-toxin in
stitution TO protect the lives of its chill
dren?"

A WHoPPlNG WHALE STORY.

Amaganset Dispatch to New York Times
The antics and depredations of Indians
in olen times round and about Amagan-
sett were tame in comparison with the
excitement here today, when at 10 o'clock
this morning the Edwards brothers sight
ed another monster whale coming up the
coast.
FIFTEEN minutes later the five brothers,
all whalers of reputation, were chasing
the whopper in separate boats With six
men in each boat, Capt. job. Capt. Gabe.
Capt. Bert. Capt Dick. Capt Jess and
Capt. Sam Edwards, with Capt. George
Smith commanding another crew, set out
The whale kept going a forty-mile pace
making furious spout every 800 or 400
yards. But about three miles off Nepea-
que beach he disappeared beneath the
surface and the boats returned.

BOYS.

From the Houston Post.
Boys'll soon be playin' hockey.

DOM all tn stunts that we did
When we used to run away
From our schools away back Wonder
Or was 1t Just yesterday?
1t don't seem like way back wonder.
1t seems more like Just last week
When we'd start out, faces sl1inin'
And our hair combed Just as sleek

Til we turned the corner, then

When you've got your colt well broken,
Trained him so he'll gee an haw,
so he'll come when you shall call hin
So he'll brace himself an draw
For each pound that there is in him.
So he knows his home and stan,
Spite of all the care you give him
He'll be just a horse, that's all.
But boy-there amt no tellin'

So when your boy plays at hockey,
Runs away or has a fight,
Then's the time to get close to him,
Not turn from him with frowl

So when he comes home some evenin'
