Merville, was playing baby and dislo-
Gated his hip. says a Bowling Green,
Ohio, special in the Cincinnati Com
mercial Tribune He was watching
his little child put its great toe in its
mouth, and the ease with which the
youngster did the trick astonished the
father, who became so interested that
he put away his tools, and. sitting
down on the floor of his shop. took on
his shoes and. tried the stunt. He
found his joints rather stiff for such
fun, but at length. with tremendous
effort, he triumphantly seized his big
toe with his teeth, and just then his
hip slipped out of joint.
The doctor was called and matters
adjusted, but pa will miss a few
weeks work. While the limb was be

tinued placidly to suck its toe.

Sunshine the Foe of These Enemies OF
Man.
Half the deaths in the world are
now known to be caused by microbes
In normal health about ~ distinct
species are ordinarily present in the
whole body. Local or climatic con-
ditions might lessen the number some
what or increase il to several hundred.
The entire mucuous membrane OF
the body is infested by microbes. The
eye is, however. comparatively free,
because it is constantly washed by
tears. The digestive organs, next TO
the skin, contain the most microbes.
Thirty species inhabit the mouth, 80
the stomach and As the lower part OF
the interior of the body.
The tonsils in the throat are often
found to contain germs of all sorts.
The lungs, windpipe and bronchial
tubes are always likely to contain a
few tubercle bacilli-diphtherla, in
fiuenza or pneumonia. The liver and
kidneys harbor germs of cancer, tu-
berculosis, malaria. typhoid fever.
Sometimes all of these are present
at the same time along with many
harmless germs.
If a section Of the ordinarily heal
thy forearm were placed under the
microscope it might show here and
there tubercle, tetanus Qockjaw), ma
larial or blood-poisoning bacilli, but
they would be rare.
Natures great and unfailing weapon
against microbes is sunshine. Some
| time it takes a few minutes, some
times weeks. but in the end direct
ray of sunshine will kill any microbe
What are microbes? They are very
low orders of animal or vegetable life
The majority of those which inhabi'
the human body are believed to be
vegetable.

in the air of a living room from 81
to 100 microbes will fall on one square

Der of Americans jumped into Cuban
farming, as they called it, and select
ed the Guines country for the scene OF
their activities. A few of them leased
lands, while to others were given the
use of tracts by some of the large
planters substantially for nothing. Few
of these early corners made success
The trouble was that they knew little
of farming and had no capital of their
own. When they miscalculated on the
potato market in>New York and when
too much rain spoiled part OF the crop
they were at the end of their resourc-
es. Others who came in later and
who had some capital are doing bet
ter, and are greatly encouraged at
the prospects which the Guines dis
