WITH BROKEN NECK AT S.

Baltimore Sun.
 In aIvillage of Pawcatuck, Conn. Ethan Clarke Burdick Is approa ching his eighty-fifth birthday notwith. standing the fact that his neck was broken fifty-five years ago. His case Is one of extraordinary interest to physicians everywhere.
 In his thirtieth year he had growth in the hand. of the nature of q fel- on, known locally as a spider" One day, when the pain from 1t was more intense than usual, he consulted A doctor in attendance upon a patient In a nearby house. The doctor, said the sore should be lanced.
 Sitting upon the back doorsteps of Ethan's home. the doctor made three vicious digs at the sore with his lance Anesthetics were not used s in those days for operations less important than the taking off of an arm or a leg, and as the third incision was made the pain and nausea caused Mi he tumbled down the steps.
 After being picked up and carried into the house, the swoon continued an inexpIicably long time, and tho attending physician, becoming alarmed, summoned MT. Burdicks family phy- sician. who helped. to revive Ethan At length 1t was obsered that the patient was unaDie to move ms neau from side to side. After fuxther ex- animation the physicians made they found that some of the vertebrae in Ethan's neck were fractured and dis placed, but that 1t would be, unwise to attempt to get the broken and mis- placed bones.
 In time Ethan was up and at work again, but he has never been able to crane his neck or to look behind him to see who was following him without swinging his body around.
 MT. Burdick Is of short stature, with an aureole of white hair completely encircling his face-whiskers below and hair above. He is slightly deaf. and his vision is impaired, but if 1t were not for his neck he would be an excellent example of good preservat- ton at an advanced age.
 He is cared for by & married daugh- ter and enjoys the company or ms grandchildren, which few men with broken necks live to see when they are eighty five.

SEEKING OIL CUSTER
BIOLOGIST ENDEAvoRs TO LOCATE
 sUBTERRANEAN WE'LL.
Find Blocks of Asphaitum--Outlet of Stream Thought to he Near Padre Island, on the Coast
 or TexaA.
Brownsville. Tex. Special.

Brownsville. Tex, Special.
 Professor W. F. Cummins, a geolo- gist, is going to Padre Island, on the State of Texas. in the Gulf of Mexico, April to find the subterranean well which is coating the gulf with petroI- cum.
 Somewhere in the gulf off Padre Is- land an oil we'll is working overtime Scientists have often attempted to To- cate this spring of great riches, but none has been successful. All the time, however, the well continues to flow. The search has been like that for the Golden Fleece.
 Several days ago party of motor fists ferried large touring car across the bay from the mainland to Padre Island and started on tour of discov- cry up Tarpon Beach. This beach Is 11o miles long and extends from . point nine miles north of the Rio Grande to Corpus Christi.
 When about fifty miles from their starting point the tourists discovered oil on the incoming rollers. A little further along they found pools of petroleum on the shore. Still further on they came upon huge blocks of asphaitum which had been cast up by the sea-,
 From time to time vessels have come
 
 with tales of how, in the midst of rough seas on the gulf. they had sud- denly reached a spot of glassy smooth ness through which they sailed peace fully, while around them the waves were piling high under the friction of the wind. The presence of this oil on the Gulf of Mexico has been re- ported for years, and it has been gem orally. accepted as fact that the de- posits which underlie wide area of Texas extend under the gulf. During the time the Beaumont field was in its glory no oil was reported on the gulf.
 The finding of large and small blocks of asphaltum on the shores of the Gulf of Mexico has also been frequent ly reported, but never in such large pieces as those found by the Browns vile motorists. The immense size of the blocks found and the actual sight of the petroleum so near the beach seem. to indicate that the outlet of the subterranean oil stream may be somewhere near this coast.
 Professor Cummins will go to the island equipped with boats and all needed apparatus for the finding of the oil we'll. He is thoroughly famil- far with the geological formations of this section of the country.
 Padre Island is long, narrow strip of sand. On the upper part. toward Corpus Christi, thousands of cattle belonging to Pat Dunne, the Mayor of Padre Islapd,' have their grazing grounds. On the lower end of the is- land is a beach resort.

 cites with derision. Miss Christabel Pankhurst interviewed. however, says that the vastness of the demonstration will convince England that Votes for Women" Is now an active factor In political life.
 Scores of novel suggestions are being poured in on the organizers of the demon st ration. The most effective is that all suffragette women should go on strike during the fortnight preced- ing the event. Those who are married should refuse to attend to their house. hold duties, force their husbands to look after the housekeeping and ch;l- dren, and generally ignore their hus- bands.
 Another suggestion is that the dem constructors should march upon Parlia- ment on the day after the meeting and absolutely refuse to disperse. One hundred and fifty thousand women say the advocates of this scheme could not be dispersed by any force short of rifle shots.

MEAT AND VEGETARIAN DIET.
Middle Course Recommended By
 French Authority.


 French Authority.
 Chicago Tribune.
 The most rational scientist who has yet ventured to suggest what people shall eat in order to be healthy is pr. Armand Gauthier, of the French Acad- emy of Medicine. AS between meat diet and vegetable diet he takes a mid dle course. He argues that as man always has eaten meat 1t Is 8 natural food of man, and yet it is not ab- like 1t He says: "Vegetarianism pre- supposed perfect health. It is not to be recommended at all to persons de- bilitatad by age. excesses, or sickness. It is not appropriate either to the whose habits are irregular, who eat quickly and when they can, to whom the siesta Is unknown and the period of sleep limited But vegetarianisn. init igated by the addition of milk and eggs, constitutes a rational diet which in many cases Is of the utmost value" " The only discouraginE effect of vege- tarianism, according to him, Is that the consumption of alcohol increases as the consumption of meat decreaseR.
 The statement of Drl Gauthier. in a nutshell. is that If meat eating agrees with a man, he should be a meat eater. and If vegetables best agree with him, and he doesn't care for meat. then he take the risk of a growing desire for alcohol. But is this not a correct rule for general application and one by which every individual can regulate with you and avoid what does not agree with you" is pretty sound ad- vice. 4 strict adherence to this rule would save much discomfort and leE- sen the doctors bills.

 Fat as a general rule comes from the failure of the digestive organs to do their work properly. It may come also from over eating. In these cases there is always some part of the food eaten which is not eliminated as 1t should be, but Is made up In the form of fat and sent by the blood to various parts of the body. This accumulation continues constantly until within a comparative ly short time the heart becomes in- cased In a layer or coating of fat The heart seems to be one of the first vital orEans to be affected in this manner.
 The food. therefore, in cases of fat, ts not properly assimilated--that Is. part of the food is retained by the body which should not be retained. and part which should be retained Is thrown out. This does not always mean dys- pepsia or indigestion. for one may have c very healthy stomach and yet begin to grow fat, through no appar- ent cause.
