of the practice of tain pettifogging
lawyers and irresponsible clients in
bringing damage suits against said
newspapers because of some fancied
grievance, and
Whereas, Such suits are almost
always tho result of personal spite on
the part Of both the attorney and client
inasmuch Is any newspaper is ever
willing to right any wrong it may have

How the Carnegie Foundation
Works.

A magnetic effect has all eady
been produced upon educational
work in the South by the official
announcement that the Randolph

in the South except Tulane Uni

Better Than the Mule.

Al a dinner the other night little
Algy offered toast to women. Said
Algernon: Here's 10 woman, beauti-
full, Fascinating woman. Made after
man, and has been after him ever
since. Ha, Ha," And here's TO man"
responded the ingenious debutante.
Man is the paragon of animals. On
his own ground he surpasses the lion
in magnanimity. the fox in acumen,
the parrot in wit, the monkey in versa
tility, the ant in thrift, the spider in
all that goes TO make il valued mem
Der of society. Briefly, man is more
of a success than the mule" She
vowed that, inspired by Algy, she
made ii up right of the wheel. At
any rate. none of the other women
present has as yet lauded it either
in the ladies home journals or Heart
to Heart Talks with Women" so may
be she did. She is clever enough about
other things, dear knows.

CHAOS IN A FERRY HOUSE.
Young Man Got Even with Crowd
Which Pushed Him Aside.

A big crowd was waiting in the St.
George ferry house, Staten island, for
the New York boat, all more or less
bored and listless. when a young man
came in and wandered idly about the
room, says the New York Press. He
finally stopped in front of a penny-in-
the-slot photograph machine and
dropped in a coin. A lively tune i'm
mediately started up. The crowd
woke up and several loafers collected
in front of the machine in order to
enjoy the strains more thoroughly.
More Of the bored ones Joined the
collection till, to the surprise of the
young man, he was elbowed out of the
way and stood on the outside. He
stared at the crowd in some resent
ment. Then a thought seemed to
strike him. He fished up a bunch of
change from his pockets and walking
around the room, calmly proceeded to
start every machine in the place go
ing. including two manipulating ma
chimes. The bedlam that ensued was
Undesirable. With grin of triumph
the youth left the scene of his villainy
and went outside to light cigarette.
He had his revenge.

as the now familiar bacilli. and one

That the human blood vessels

white corpuscles called leucocytes.
whose duty it is to battle with the
invading hosts of microbes. is a
truth that has been recognized for
many day. 1t has also been
known that in the battle between
microbes and scavengers the latter,
like a hearty lot of cannibals. sit
down and swallow up their foes.
But it was not known why the
leucocytes devoured the microbes,
and it is the discovery of the rea-
son that will make the name of
Wright celebrated. Prof. \. f.
Wright is London physician, a
bacteriologist, and he has found
that the white corpuscles do not
devour the microbes because of an
everlasting hunger. To the con-
trary, the scayengers refuse to eat
at all unless their food and our
poison, the microbes, are properly
prepared for the feast. They de-
mand a sauce piquante.
This appetizer is the opsonin-
the word is adapted from the
Greek and means feast-preparer-
a substance found in the watery
plasma of the blood. If the blood
contains the proper amount of OPP
sonins to season the microbes, the
leucocytes devOur them and we
keep well. If the blood is de-
fcient in opsonins. the leucocytes
refuse to come to dinner, the mi
crobes multiply and we fall i'll.
But DR.. Wright has not only
discovered this; it is of infinitely
more importance that he has dis
covered how to supply the opsonin
deficiency, how to tickle the scav-
enger palate: and it is with the
practical application of this discov-
cry that the world will soon be
throbbing.
