warranted sufferings of animals. But
they are fighting a monster that does
not exist"
The speaker said that one of the
main causes of distrust of medicine
and doctors, which, he said, had exist
ed since ancient days and was still in
force, was "the appalling ignorance
which people possess of their own
bodies and bodily processes.
"The ordinary man feels certain
symptoms" said the lecturer, but he
does not understand their real sig
nificance. He knows not whether they
are important or unimportant, or
whether or not they demand a doc
tors knowledge. He trusts blindly to
the hope that if he neglects them they
will pass away. If they persist, he
diagnoses his own case and attempts
to treat it. If, at last, he is forced
to appeal to the doctor he learns that
of the real significance of his disease
he knows nothing, except what the
doctor may tell him"
After the lecture, 1t being the con-
Guiding one of a series, there was an
impromptu reception to Doctor Lee.
Doctors and medical students, as well
as lay members who were in the audi
ence, greeted him One woman told
the doctor she was seventy-four years
old, but, in spite of that, had not
missed one of his lectures.

Real "GoId Bricks"

Gold bricks, real ones, may be the
means of restoring the ancient fame
of Golconda, near Hyderbad, in south
ern India, once known all the world
over for it's gold mines, but now a de-
cayed city. The natural pits from
which many centuries ago the precious
metal was extracted have In course of
time filled up with water. A contrac-
tor recently obtained permission to
make bricks near the place and ten
kilns were erected. The first finished
bricks aroused curiosity by their yell

they contained gold dust. On the ba-
sis of the yield of the sample bricks,
the ten kilns will aggregate in weight

to the Nizam, or native ruler, whose

over the moving picture screen at the
American Museum of Natural History

S. Lee, professor of physiology in Co
lumbia, showed his audiences how the
germs of the sleeping sickness thrive
amid the blood corpuscles. He also
had pictures showing how the move
ment of rabbits heart is studied, and

brought to this country to illustrate
Doctor Lees address, which was the
last of the Jesup lectures on scientific
features of modern medicine, under
the auspices of Columbia university.
Pictures of the germs working
among the blood corpuscles, and, ap-
parently, feeding on them. were re-
ceived with astonishment by the audi
ence.
In speaking of his animal pictures,
Doctor Lee, who is a leader in con-
futing the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. made
tempered remarks concerning them.
'In view of the great extension of
the commendable humane movement
of the past half century said he, ut
is. perhaps, not surprising that opposi-
ton to the use of animals for scientific
purposes is holly maintained by few
individuals. This opposition some
times wilfully denies the value of anil
NAL experimentation in scientific adj
vances; it sometimes assumes the ex-
IRENE and officially indefensible atti-
tude of denying the right of man to
use animals at all as experimental OBJ
jects, and it has as its practical aim
the establishment of legal restrictions
against the practice. These vary in
degree from slight limitations to total
prohibition.

he became popular, owing to his serv-

His life has not been spent in the

the veranda, with its trellised vines,
and receives the care of wife and
