SUICIDE OF RATTLESNAKES.
Why Scorpion or Venomous Animal Can Not
Sting Itself to Death.

The venoms OF ssrpents, fishes,
SCORPIONS. centipedes, spiders, bees.
etc, as well as the blood OF the eel,
owe their yiruience to the presence Of
toxins similar to those which are Sc
creted by bacteria. In both cases the
TOXINS are specific products Of the ac-
tivity Of living cells. They are very
oisonous, non-erystallizable colloids,
Of unknown chemical constitution.
The venom toxins are very sensitive
to the action of heat and light, are
easily destroyed by digestive ferments
and consequently are innocuous when
swallowed. There is great variety
Of these toxins. Snake poison alone
contains half dozen distinct toxins,
each Of which exerts specific action
on the nervous system. the red or the
white blood corpuscles, etc.
1t is possible to produce in any ami
NAL an artificial condition of immu-
nifty to the effects Of any animal
venom. This is accomplished by the
repeated injection of the venom in
doses, each OF which is too small TO
cause DEATH After a larger or small
er number of injections the animal
acquires the power to resist the action

that would suffice to cause death II 1t
were injected into the veins of non
immunized animal. The blood Of the
immunized animals now contains
new substance, an antitoxin which
has the property of neutralizlng the
toxin Of the venom. and this blood

may be employed to combat the toxic

PICTURES OF IMsnGRANTs.


The street camera man who takes
your picture in one minute for one
cent has found new and profitable
field. Instead Of roaming around the
streets looking for trade. he has sta
toned himself down in Battery Park
near the immigration Bureau.
He waits until boatload of immi-
grants come over from Ellis Island
and when they have come out on the
street he gets busy. He knows that
there are always some friends of the
immigrants down to welcome them
and he also knows that the friends
like to have pictures to show the new
comers in later years. how they
looked when they first landed in New
York
So when the immigrants begin to
come out on the street in tow of their
friends the camera man bawls out in
loud voice: Have your friends pic
lures taken. Next year YOU can show
them how they looked when they
were greenhorns.
Some of the immigrants are shy of
the camera, but enough of them are
caught to make the photographer

action of the venom IN a non-immuu-
lied animal.
The ichneumon. the hedgehog and
some other animals which devour ven
omous serpents exhibit an extraord,,.-
nary resistance to the effect of th0r
bites. This natural immunity is ex-
planned by the presence Of antitoxins
in the blood Of these animals. Ser
Pents are also little affected by their
own venom. In general it is almost
impossible to kill venomous animal
by inoculating it with the venom of its
own species. o. which 1t can support
very large dose with impunity.
These facts demonstrate the absur-
dlty OF the stories of rattlesnakes and
scorpions committing suicide by
means of their own venom. 1t is as
serted that a scorpion or a rattlesnake
imprisoned in circle of red hot Goals
will sting or bite itself to death. This
is a physiological impossibility.-The

Success of Crusade Against
tuberculosis Shown in the
Way Homes are Built
BUILDINGS ARE MADE SANITARY

One of the most encouraging signs of
success in the work of the Wisconsin
Anti tuberculosis association for the
prevention of consumption is the wide
adoption Of the new idea in residence
construction. Hundreds of homes built
in Wisconsin this year make ample pro-
vision for open-air sleeping, the foe
not only of consumption but of many
other diseases that result from close
confinement, bad air, ill-ventilated
chambers and lack of sunlight.
Architects and builders have recog-
nized the demand of the day for dwell
ings which will not shut out pure, fresh
air and will admit plenty of sunlight.
The number and area Of porches has
increased in response to the demand for
sleeping quarters that make for health.
Perhaps at no time in the history of
civilization has so much attention been
paid to the general sanitary features
of the home.
"Were all these things done simply
and exclusively for the benefit of the
tuberculous, or those who are pre- dis
posed, or those who wish to keep con
sumption far from themselves, they
would be Of incalculable value, but
while doing this, they strike at prac-
H
tically every disease that mankind is
heir to, again proving that the anti
tuberculosis crusade is the greatest
boom to the general health of the gen
eral public, says bulletin issued by
the state society.
i" For at the same time that the root
of the tuberculosis evil is being struck
at, the preachments of sane, sanitary
living apply to all other diseases. It
is. truly said, therefore, that the anti
tuberculosis crusade, by influencing eff
fort for the prevention of other dis
eases and conditions inimical to health:
making for a marked uplift in living
and working conditions of the masses,
and proclaiming the gospel of fresh air
and right living, is rendering to the
world a greater service than the most
important movements of the ages.

BOWS TO STEWART
Thomas KearneyNo City
Attorney He Will Not Be a
Candidate for Congress
NOT SEEKING ANY CONTEST

Hopes of the Democracy of the First
District to send man to Congress
next year went glimmering today when
it became known that Thomas M. Kear-
ney Of Racine who was regarded by the
Democrats as very strong candidate
for the office had declined to enter the
race for the nomination. Mr. Kcarney
had consented to 60 into the race If
there was no opposition for the nomi-
nation but City Attorney Calvin Stew
art Of this city notified Mr.. Kearney
that he would remain in the race. In
answer to this letter the City Attorney
received note from Mr.. Kearney to-
day in which the Racine man stated
that he would not oppose Stewart. In
his note which was entirely courteous,
he stated that he had consented to en-
ter the race only on account of the be-
lief that there was 10 other Democrat
ic candidate and that if Mr.. Stewart
was seeking the nomination he would
get out of his way. The petitions for
the nomination of the Kenosha man
are now being circulated. 1t is under
stood that the Racine democrats will
seek to have Kearney change his mind
but his letter would indicate that the
decision is a final one.

LILLIAN SAILS Fastest RACE
Five Yachts in First of Series of Races
for Kenosha Club Trophy Break Re-
cord for Six Mile Triangular Course
Sunday.

In the fastest time ever seen in a
six mile race among the yachts of the
Kenosha Yacht club the yacht Valryke
sailed by Otto Bauer won first honors
on her time allowance on Sunday after
noon. The Valryke had the largest
time allowance and the time awarded
to her by the handicap committee made
it possible for her to- win the race by
large margin. Her corrected time for
the six miles was 1880. The Karoline
H., with time allowance of 81 min
utes finished second and Dragon with
time allowance of "a minutes was
third. The Lillian sailing from scratch
while completing the course in the
shortest time was fourth in the race
and the Viola second in time was fifth.
Viola also sailed from scratch.
The race was one of the prettiest
ever pulled off under the auspices of
the Kenosha club and with perfect
weather conditions the boats covered
the course in the shortest time ever re-
corded for such triangular course in
a race for Kenosha boats. The boats
got away at 2 O'Clock with the Val
ryke in the lead and the Viola second.
Viola and Lillian the two scratch
boats soon drew away from the smaller
craft and they rounded the first leg of
the triangle in less than twenty min
utes. Here they struck the strong
winds and the second leg was made in
record breaking time.
The Valryke, Karoline H. and Dragon
were always contenders in the race and
even without time allowance they
would have finished close to the scratch
boats. The race was run without any
accident to any Of the boats or their
crews and it went off SO smoothly that
it proved to be decidedly interesting
race for the crowds of people who
watched the yachts from the beach.
The following is the record for the
race. az

A BOARDING HOUSE REGISTER.
Y. M. G. A. to Have Complete List

Steps are now being taken to add to
the list of boarding houses on the Y.

in the city where man can secure
either room or board will be included
in the list.
Nearly every day men are helped
to find suitable homes but the list has
been incomplete and the people who
conduct the places do not always CO.
operate in keeping the Association in
formed as to what their accommoda-

small fee will be charged. Hundreds
of notices of the Register will be
placed in the factories, public build
ings and other places where they will
be likely to be seen by men.
