SENATOR LEA GIVES
BLOOD TO SAVE
WIFE.
TRANSMISSION Adopted AS A
Last Alternative to Stay
Ebbing Of Life.

Washington, June 19.-United
States Senator Luke Lea of Ten
nessee, to save the life of his
stricken wife, heroically sacri-
feed a quart of his blood at
Georgetown Hospital today and
tonight hope for Mrs. LEAFS re-
covery, which had almost been
abandoned, is practically as
sured.
The youngest Senator of the
nation lies near the bedside of
his wife, recuperating his
strength.
Mrs. LEAFS condition, serious
for some time, became alarming
Saturday after an operation the
day before. Her strength be-
cause of lack of blood was gone,
and vitality was fast ebbing
away. Senator Lea demanded
that a TRANSMISSION operation be
performed and prepared at once
to submit to the ordeal. At
tending physicians and surgeons
made arrangements Immediately
and the operation which followed
was declared to have been sue
cessful. Senator Lea withstood
the operation we'll. though it left
him so weakened that for hours
he could not stand alone, but
qualification over the revivifying
effect on his wife was inexpressi-
BILE. Surgeons assured him that
without the sacrifice Mrs. Lea
would have lived buta few hours.
It will be two or three days be-
fore Mrs. Lea is altogether out
of danger. At present her symp-
toms are favorable. It is ex-
pected Senator Lea will be able
to leave his room in a few days.
When the heroic effort in Mrs.
LEAFS behalf became imperative
and TRANSMISSION was determined
upon, Senator Lea, athletic in
stature, would not consent to
anything but that a sacrifice of
his own blood to renew her van
ishing strength be made. But
because of a prime factor in
TRANSMISSION operations is that
bloods be fusible hasty tests were
made. Before the analysis was
complete the surgeons, fearing
that death might be swifter than
they thought, became alarmed at
Mrs. Lea's condition and decided
to try the operation anyway.
Just as the Senator's arm had
been barred and a tube inserted
word came that the bloods Of the
and wife were fusible.
The other end Of the tube was
connected with an incision in
Mrs. Lea's arm and the blood
to flow from his veins to
of his wife.
The TRANSMISSION continued for
about an hour and a half. The
patient responded to the treat
ment from the first. Gradually
the color was restored to the lips
and cheeks Of the frail sufferer,
but as Mrs. Lea's color was re-
stored the flush faded from the
cheeks of her husband. His
thought was not of himself and
the TRANSMISSION had con-
for an hour and a half, he
.mportuned the surgeons not to
the operation while there
was the possibility of a doubt as
% the outcome in Mrs. LEAFS
Ease. But the surgeons realizing
she weakening effects of such a
train on the Senator's system,
eventually staunched the flow.

Not the eastfavorable element

Small Tools ON the Farm.

If the average farmer were
asked, How much money have
you invested in the small tools on
this FARM" it is probable that
after a moment of thought, dur
ing which he would have a men
tai picture of an axe, a hand saw,
a grind stone and rather a con-
fused idea that there was a lot
of stuff of one sort or another
somewhere about the farm, would
reply that from $25 to $50 would
cover the cost.
A recent investigation, con-
Quoted in Ohio, discloses the fact
that this is far short of the mark.
Careful inventories were taken
on thirty-three farms, and in
every instance the total amount
was many times what the owner
had guessed"
The fact that these small tools
are bought, one at a time as
needed, and are not cared for
systematically, leads to a very
erroneous idea of their value.
Summarizing the inventories of
these thirty-three farms, it is
estimated that to completely
equip a general farm of 160 acres
in Ohio with small tools will
probably cost from $500 to $500
or in excess of the farmers guess
by more than 500 per cent. An
error in judgment of this amount
particularly when the error is
against the farm, is serious
enough to challenge attention.
Even on farms where inven-
tories are habitually taken those
tools Of minor equipment are
usually included as ''other small
tools' and given a guessed at
value, somewhat after the stereo-
typed expression appearing on
sale bills: "other articles too
numerous to mention"
Farm requirements differ very
greatly, the highly specialized
farm not needing nearly so many
tools as the general farm. The
necessity of a fairly complete
outfit is apparent if the farmer
would avoid expensive trips to
town or to the neighbors to meet
some immediate need, thereby
stopping teams and laborers
until the repair is affected. The
advantage of some systematic
arrangement is also apparent, in
order that the exact tool may be
at hand when wanted and thus
avoid loss and delay by reason Of
mislaid, borrowed, stolen or lost
tools.
Some of these tools can be
charged to special farm enter
prises, as tothe horses, the dairy,
corn, hay, grain, ETC., but by far
the great majority constitute an
overhead charge against the
farm. The connection between
an auger bit handle and a bushel
of wheat may not be at once ap-
parent to the miller, but it re-
quires the auger bit handle to
turn the bit to bore the hole in
the plank to make the wagon
jack, to grease the wagon that
hauled the grain to the machine,
and that brought the wheat to
the mill. Before the bushel Of
wheat can yield a profit it must
help pay for the auger bit handle
and the other minor tools which
total a hundred or more dollars
in value on any we'll managed
farm. The item is small, but it
is a part of that great overhead
charge which exists On every
farm and which goes to help
up the difference between
what the farmer gets and what
some people think he gets. Elk.

Hygiene In American Schools Is
Improving Students Progress
Efforts Made Children Well Their
Minds, Prove Success

to the temperature and air OF the school
room During the past year, series Of
interesting experiments Ia school room
temperatures was made. 1t was indi-
Gated by these that a highly heated
room is productive Of many bad re-
suits Children do their best work in a
cool room. Dust in the school atmos-
phere also has been pronounced inju-
rious in many ways. and for this reason
floor oil. vacuum cleaners and mary
other devices for the abolition OF dust
have been introduced into the public
school
Providing Cheap Lunches.
1t is found that many school children
suffer from malnutrition and means OF
supplying the lack in this respect are
being provided in many schools. New
York City provides three cent lunches
for school children. In cases where
the child has not money to pay for the
Punches and his condition indicates the
need of additional nourishment, 1T may
be provided by the school authorities.
An experiment recently made in this
connection developed the fact that chill
dren taking lunch every day for three
months gained 10 pounds in weight
and that children without the lunch
gained only three pounds in the same
period. In many cities the penny lunch
has been introduced with good results
While the amount of food furnished for
one cent would necessarily provide but
little nutriment, 1t was at least better
for the average child to have this small
quantity than to spend the penny for
something more detrimental to his
health.
One of the newest innovations in
school room hygiene is the individual
or sanitary drinking cup. which has
now been introduced into great many
schools throughout the country. Kan
sas CITY has gone one step further in
providing sanitary paper towels to be
used throughout the public school
building.

RAGGAGE-EXPRESS
HANDLED JOINTLY
Express Companies Now
Look After It For the
Railroad Companies

That the Wells-Fargo company viii
handle all baggage on the Texas & Pa
cific and International & Great North
ern after September Is, Is the sub
stance OF report current in railroad
circles. 1t is said that the original
contract Of the Gould lines with this
express company, which took over the
business OF the Pacific Express COM
pany August !, provided for the hand
ling Of baggage, but that an agree
ment which the Gould lines had with
their baggage men prevented that
clause from going into effect at the
time. The Pacific held the express
business concession on the Gould lines
Baggage employees OF the railroads
will not suffer as result OF the con-
tract with the express company, It is
claimed, as most OF them viii get en-
p1oynIent with the express company.
The Wells-Fargo company has con-
tracts with the s. P, the Santa Fe and
the Frisco systems 10 handle baggage
on those lines The American Express
company has a similar contract with
the Missouri Kansas & Texas, also
This arrangement was deemed best
by the railroads and the express COM
panies. as 1t did away with joint re-
sponsibiifty in car-one man for
baggage and one for express Where
the work Is too much for one man,
he Is given an assistant, but one man
alone is responsible for both express
and baggage. The move enabled tie
express companies to pay their men
better salaries and resulted IN the saw
ing of salary to the railroads.
