Representative Albert F. Dawson, of
Iowa, the office of secretary to the
president. 1t is understood that Mr..
Dawson is considering the tender
and that the indications are that he
will not find it feasible to accept the
Office.
Mr.. Dawson voluntarily retired
from the race for reelection in his
district long before the primaries
were held, with a view to becoming
president of the First National Bank
of Davenport, Iowa, his home town,
when this congress expires on March
4. His salary as bank president
would be much greater than that OF
secretary to the president. II he
should accept, the acceptance would
not be made until on or after March
4. Mr.. Dawson's friends say that the
banking career more strongly at

the discovery OF DR.. August Francis Schafer
country practitioner of Bakersfield, California. II
Dr. sehafer had been in Paris, instead of an oil
town in the depths of California we would have
oeen electrified by his discovery two years ago.
AS 1t is, he waited until he could bring 1t forth
with Its record Of two thousand cases before he
even took into his confidence the nearest medical
society. Without those two thousand cases doc
tors would have been free to doubt With them
he has met the professional requirement of an in

How has he done it? How could a country doc

have failed to reveal? These are natural cues.

not made by accident. DR.. schafer studied dis

| The Pneumonia Test.
| No more severe test could have been given the
anti-toxin than Bakersfield has afforded in the
past two years. In that district pneumonia accom-
panes most diseases, often in the duplex form.
In ten per cent. of the assesses develop in
the lung, or pus accumulates in the peural cavity.
Moreover, 1t comes swiftly and strikes suddenly.

most of the physicians in that part of the country
have been inoculating their patients with serum
provided by DR.. Schafer, and, contrary to the
perience of all previous rush settlements, there
has been no epidemic of pneumonia.
Extreme cases have been the rule in DR..
Schafer's practice. Even after all hope has been

no time to waste, in his Bakersfield prac-
t1ce DR.. Schafer worked out rough for
mula which was found to be effective in local
cases. He prepared what he termed mixed in
fection, which is worth knowing about for the
lives 1t has already saved. AS far as experiments
nave gone it might be called the pneumonia anti
toxin. 1t is composed of equal portions of the
counterirritants to the three germs predominant
IN pneumonia. This mixture the result of
long experiment and is unquestionably certain
remedy for pneumonia in Bakersfield.
1t Is made by stimulating the artificial growth
OF the three germs by ordinary laboratory methods
until the metabolic fluid thrown off has progressed
sufficiently when the cultured mass is incubated,
macerated and disintegrated. The mixing of the
resulting vaccines requires great skill.
This stock anti-toxn will probably prove to be
valuable anywhere. In the first few days follow
ing the announcement of the remedy in January
of this year, when San Francisco physicians could
only believe it the work of quack, Dr. Henry
Spro took chance with it in desperate situa-
ton, with astonishing results.

First 1t became known in the surrounding coun-

cured. Then the news gradually spread, and cure
after cure made the light burn brightly under the

attracted the attention of San Francisco physi-
