show that DR.. Hupp's statements were
conflicting. and that when he first
was called in to attend to Mr.. Schenk
he found, upon examination, that he
had arsenic poisoning, but later dis
covered that he had sugar of lead or
lead acetate poisoning He says DR..
Hupp is prejudiced. He says the ply
sician changed his report to sugar Of
lead poisoning because DR.. Gregory

and surgeon, diagnosed Mr.. Schenk's
ailment as that of sugar of lead
poisoning.

Life is 50 arranged that there is
close resemblance between infancy and
old age. By this Is not meant the men
tai but the physical faculties. For ex-
ample, the organ of digestion is the most
difficult thing the child has to contend
with, as It is tnat OF the old person.
When a person gets past middle life
his power Of digestion decreases, and
continues to grow weaker. and for that
reason so many old people are habitual
ly constipated. They try everything
recommended from hot water TO strong
cathartics without avail. Now, II there

years should not take II is a cathartic.

time thereafter there was every indi.
cation that the occupation was going
TO be n very peaceful and easy affali.
This was especially the case at Tri.
poll. where, although there were night
attacks from the Arabs and the Turk
ish tribes without, yet they were at.
tacks that we're easily repulsed and
indications were that there was little
thought of very serious opposition.
AS a consequence. Italy gave its at.
tentoin largely at this time to the
carrying out Of the implied promises
1t had made in occupying the two ter.
ritories-namely the promise of their
moral and material development.
here had been a crop failure in Tri.
poll for the three years previous. and
the Italian officials at once began the
distribution of grain and seed for the
coming planting period. Food wus
also distributed to the natives, the 10.
cal currency was changed into Italian
money. tho Italian system of posts
and telegraphs was established, and
Italy seemed on a fair way towards
carrying out an extensive and instan.
tnneous system of benevolent assImF:
%lation..
She vas well prepared for this
phase OF the occupation and develop.
ment of the territory, for the reason
that for months previous, following
her determination 10 occupy the ter.
ri5ory. every department of the gov
eminent had devoted practically Its
entire time 10 studying the country.
its needs, and its possibilities, so that
when actual occupation took place
every detail had been perfected for
doing the country the utmost possible
amount of good in the smallest posi-
BILE amount OF time.
1t was. however, at this point, that
Italy was made suddenly and forcibly
to realize that Tripoli and Cyrenaica
were not to be here until she had con-
Quercd them fully and completely. and
her efforts at benevolent assimilation
was forced to give way at once to
measures first for SELF defense and
protection and then for subduinG the
entire country.
