ELECTRIC NEEDLES AS CURE
English Physician Thinks He Has Dis
covered Remedy for Cancer
Called Ionic Surgery.

London.-Dr. G. Betton Massey of
the Chicago theological hospital. ia
the first surgeon who has performed
an operation for cancer in England by
what is known as the new ionic sur
gerry, and SO far as observations go at
the present time the operation looks
like being successful 1t was a scri-
Gus case. too. which had been battling
the staff of the London cancer hos
pital
Very soon after the cancerous
growth was pierced by the three nee
dies coated with mercury the cancer
became blanched and shriveled up un-
der the electric current. The growth
was eventually killed and a zone of
reaction was formed round the seat
Of the disease. The entire absence of
bleeding was notable feature of the
operation and DR.. Massey considers
that recurrence is prevented.
Before DR.. Massey was permitted to
OF crate he had to appear before the
authorities at the hospital and explain
to them fully the aim and scope of his
work, which he has been studying for
many years.

Health Departments New Sys-
tenn of Milk Inspection.
Just How Well Dalrymen Follow the
Rules VIII Be Posted by Means
Of Cloth sign-Departmen
Means Business.

Chicago.-"Never indulge In loud
talking in the presence of the cow"
This is not a maxim copied from
textbook on polite behavior. 1t is. on
the contrary, the import of just one oi
set of exacting regulations which 49,
900 milk producing farmers within $50
miles of Chicago are to be required to
post on their barn doors by order of
the Chicago health department.
The rules are printed on stout linen
cloth calculated to defy wear and
weather. Mailing them on the barn
door is only the first requirement of the
health departments order. Thereafter
they are to be obeyed. Inspectors from
Chicago will call around to see how
the farmer is succeeding and on the
bottom of the cloth poster there will
be marked in indelible ink the score
which the dairyman has reached.
There the score will stand, where
neighbors and customers may look at
1t, until the inspector calls again and
adds another percentage mark that
will boost or lower the farmers stand
ing In the community.
The import of all OF which is that
the Chicago health department means
business. and farmers in Illinois. Wis
consin, Indiana and Michigan who
have dealings with the city are finding
1t out.
That 4.900 of the 5000 dealers in
Chicago are obeying the city ordinance
which requires the safeguarding of
milk against tuberculosis contamina-
tion either by pasteurization or
through tuberculin tests was an
nounced the other day by Health Com
missioner w. A Evans
That means that only 100 are not
complying with the ordinance said
DR.. Evans. Fifty of that 100 will be
made to comply within week. Twen-
ty-five more will be brought in line
within another week. BY that time
the number of law violators will be
pretty small. and we shall exhaust the
means of the department to make 1t a
negligible quality"

There are many women who smoke
cigarettes, although I do not think
that the majority Of these women
smoke them to excess. OF course, ex-
cessive smoking greatly injuries the
lungs and weakens the heart action.
Every one knows that.
Excessive cigarette smoking, like
anything else excessive. Injuries the
physical condition of the body and
there are many women In society who
are inveterate smokers.
"Of course. do not mean to say
that all society women smoke cigar

not care for them. That is their rea-
son for not smoking them. They SIM
ply do not wish to.

Coyotes and Wildcats Are Captured
Alive by caiifornians and
Domesticated.

Los Angeles. Cal.-Hunting Wild
cats, coyotes and coons with fox
hounds has become the sport de
rigueur of the smart set of Burlingame
and Hillsborough, which has taken this
means to rid the estate of the William
H. Crockers of undesirable providers.
With Walter H. Hobart acting as
the instructing nimrod. the women of
Burlingame and Hillsborough have
taken lively interest in the sport and
have invested 1t with novelty by ma
king captives of the hunted animals
instead of killing them.
Miss Jennie Crocker has trapped
two wildcats that she is endeavoring
to domesticate and tutor in deport-
ment according to the accepted Hills
borough standards. and Mrs. Oscar
Cooper and Mrs. Laurence Scott ex-
pect to bring about the social reforma-
ton of two plebeian coyotes and make
them CONNIE II faut in the most ex-
elusive circles. The William H.
Crockers number two coyotes and two
wildcats as trophies OF the chase, and
the w. B. Bourns two Wildcats. So
far the coons have found no social
sponsors.
The Crocker estate extends over 500
acres, and the hills to its rear, in the
direction of the ocean, recently be-
came infested with an unusually large
number OF coyotes, wildcats and coons.
Walter Hobart was asked to bring his

ing the lariat promises to develop in
to an accomplishment at Burlingame

THE DIETZ CASE.

Judge Reid returned home from
Hayward during the week, where he
had been called to try the case of the
State of Wisconsin VS.. John Dietz for
the killing of Oscar Harp. A stay in
the proceedings was granted to allow
the defendant to produce witnesses
and dig up evidence. Mr.. Reid states
that Dietz is not vicious looking
fellow but has a defiant air. He is
muscular man and at times is given
TO sneering at court proceedings.
Since the Oscar Harp case was brought
up two other cases have been brought
against Dietz and his family, that OF
the shooting of Bert Horal and a Mil
waukee man of the name John Rogich.
He was bound over for trial in both
cases, his bail being fixed at large
amount.
The defense committee has turned
down the offer of Clarence DarroW
as an attorney for Dietz. The noted
attorney, 1T appears, asked retainer
of $4,000 and $3.50 per week salary
while on the case.
1t is reported in Wausau that
Dietz broke out of Jail yesterday
and went to his farm near Winter
and shot and killed all his pigs
When recaptured and asked why he
took the lives of the pigs he laconical
ly answered, Because when they are
dead they can't squeel on me-"

AN OLD CUSTOM.

Editor Pilot
This being the oh-be-joyful seas on
of the year, when everyone is figuring
or buying present for him or her or
it, and is living in expectancy of get
ting something in return, it brings
US to the origination of this fad, for
fad it is. The custom appears to be
as old as Rib hill, but was not car
ried out with such vigorous effort in
its infancy as it is today, for there
were no trusts TO help out in early
times. Winter scene post cards with
Clipped glass frosting on them, bear
ing the words, "Merry Christmas"
had not been invented then, nor
were there such things as scrambled
celluloid toilet sets, Stinkadora, I'm
perfecto cigars, red neckties, Eau de
Polecat perfumes and such truck,
that finds such ready sale in these
piping modern times.
To the Greeks is given the credit of
originating the custom. They had
one of the requisites of a horse trader
and in the exchange of presents with
other people had the faculty of get
ting the better end of the deal. Thus
originated the expression, 'Beware of
the Greeks bearing presents" 1t
was one Christmas day when the
Greeks were displaying what they had
gotten in return for their presents
and were boisterously laughing over
it, that Diogenes started out with
his lantern in search for an honest
man. At one time the Persians re-
sorted to arms to get their presents
back. but were so decisiyely defeated
at the battle of Marathon that they
never gave trouble afterward. This
historic event supplied name for
this county of ours.
But the custom of making presents
finally got the Greeks, and reduced
them TO the financial state they are
in now-at least we never saw one
who is not obliged to resort to ped
ding, or conducting a banana or
shoe shining stand to make living.
We, of the white race, feel like doing
the same thing after making settle
ment for our presents.
We know of but few things which
