JEFF DISAPPOINTS
BIG SUNDAY CROWD
Heavy Weight Contender Can
Not Be Persuaded to Give
Sparring Exhibition

BEN LOMOND, May SIN adhering
to his desire to make Sunday after
noon regular half holiday break in
his training routine, Jeffries today dis
appointed a large crowd of spectators
nasium for sparring match that did
not materialize. With the exception
of a short period in the gymnasium in
the morning, Jeffries spent the day
without exercise other than a tramp up
the stream for fish. With Jack Wooley
he spent the afternoon on the banks of
the San Lorenzo river
Manager Sam Berger tried to induce
his charge to hold to his original plan
to spar in the afternoon, but Jeffries
could not be persuaded He gave, how
ever. an ironclad promise that here
after he will do his Sunday work regu-
larly at o'clock in the afternoon.
Jeffries went through his usual rou-
tine at his mornings workout in the
gymnasium. He cut the roadwork out
of his days program and engaged in a
fast encounter with the punching bag.
Two games of handball followed, with
the usual allotment of rope skipping
and shadow boxing.

TENDENCY TO SLEEP is
A HEALTHY INSTINCT
intellectual Work Frequently
Causes Wakefulness

Why can some men sleep at will and
some nervous men. too, while others,
sometimes very heavy" men, with ap-
parently immovable nerves, are tor
tured by insomnia? Why. too, do some
men seem to obtain sufficient rest with
five hours sleep, while others require
nine9 The popular prejudice against
sleep works an nfinity of mischief
There are plenty of sluggards even
among the cultivated class, but the
sleep sluggard is in that class a very
rare specimen. The tendency of the
educated is to wakefulness, and the
man who does intellectual work and ex-
hibits what his friends think a disposi-
ton to oversleep is obeying healthy
instinct.-London Globe.

BEATING HEART IS
SHOWN ON SCREEN
Opening and Closing of Blood
Pumping Valves May Be
Seen Clearly

The heart beat is photographed in
many important European hospitals.
The patient is ushered into a pitch
dark room, from which every ray of
light is excluded. Without removing
his clothes or making any other pre-
liminary preparation he is invited to
sit down on an ordinary chair before
a large glass bulb. says the Chicago
Tribune. Then the operator switches
on the current and in response the
electric sparks hiss in the glass bulb.
filing il with a pale green light. Then
the operator holds in front of the pa
tient plate which has been prepared
with compound of barium platinum.
On this is thrown a clearly defined
image of the heart. and the electric
rays are so arranged that the shadow
OF the rib bones is scarcely percep-
tibIe and does not in any way inter
fere with the examination of the heart.
The image is SO distinct that one can
clearly observe the opening and closing
Of the valve as the blood is being
nothing Of this whatever. II is thought
that before long the action of the
heart as seen on the screen may be
transferred TO a cinematograph film.
At present the movements are recorded
on an electrocardiagra
IN order that this may be obtained
the patient has to place his bare arms
in two large vessels filled with water.
Into each of the vessels is led a copper
wire charged with electricity. Where
these wires meet a thin platinum wire
is attached TO them, resting within q
hignly charged magnetic field. As soon
as the contact is completed this plati-
mum needle begins to move, its move
ment being regulated according to the
strength Of the electric current pass
ing through it.
Since the human body is a conductor
Of electricity the contact circuit is made
when the patient places his arms in the
vessels Of water into which the wires
are led. The movement of the needle
follows the contraction and expansion
Of the heart. impelled by the electricity
generated through the action of the
heart muscles while performing that
function. When these contractions are
strong the scoring of the needle is
much greater than when the contrae-
tions are weak Under the moving
needle a Photographic film is slowly
passed and the light above it so ar
ranged that a faithful imprint of the
beating of the heart is recorded on
the electrocardiagram.

these:
