Subject Of Prime importance.

Weather is the one topic of CONVEX
sation that never grows out of date.
We are almost as nearly at the mercy
Of the sunshine, the rain and the snow
storm as we were a century ago.
Therefore we always scan the sky
when we get up in the morning. 1t is
almost instructive, even with the city
dweller. No farmer fails to take a
long look at the sky when he first
rises, for on the weather will depend
his activities during the day.

Experiments have been made with
frogs which tend to show that those
animals rapidly absorb water through
the pores of the skin. Emphasis is
laid by certain authorities upon the
fact that frogs never take water by
the mouth. On being exposed for sew

on the street lighting problem and

Hon. r. c. Walker was the last

of the needs of the city at this mo-

said, in part. but the important
thing is to do the right thing at the

The need of Grand Junction now is
larger trade territory-a bigger
feeding ground and the way to that
desired end is good roads. The peo-
pie of the ParaoX are clamoring for
us to come and get their trade and
we must do these things at once,
lest our neighbors realize on our
neglected opportunities. Roads 10

ILLINOIS RAILROADS "DRY."
Eleven Cease Sale of Liquor on Trains
RUNNING In State.

Eleven railroads operating in Illinois
have ceased the sale of liquor on din
ing and buffet cars or any other part
of their trains.
The roads voluntarily took this ac-
tion because of the question as to
whether they had the right to sell
liquor in certain territory.
The roads are the Monon, Wabash,
Rock Island, Illinois Central, Chicago
and Alton, Chicago Great Western,
Chicago and Eastern Illinois, Chicago
and Northwestern, Chicago, Burling-
ton and Quincy, Atchison, Topeka and
Santa Fe and Chicago, Milwaukee and

The railroad officials explained that
while the law permitted the sale Of
liquor while the trains were IN motion
they passed through much local option
territory, and there was doubt as TO
the propriety Of selling intoxicating
drinks in this territory.

He Declares That the Effect Of Serums
on the Little Animals Does Not
Provo Results In the Case of Human
5einss-Eis Experiences.
DR.. Doyen, the noted French sur
geon. has caused surprise by taking
the stand that the yearly slaughter in
the laboratories of thousands of guinea
pigs. rabbits, cats, mice and dogs pro-
duces practically no advance in the
science of treating human disease. His
statement was caused by the present
lack of guinea pigs, about which the
Partisan scientists have been complain
ing. Some departments of the Pas
teur institute are almost at a standstill
because they cannot get animals for
experimental purposes.
DR.. Doyen has discovered many heal
ing serums and antitoxins and is not
influenced by antivivisection opinions.
His position. he says, is based entirely
on the belief that the way diseases
act on the lower animals is no certain
criterion as to how they will affect
man.
Opposes Use of Pigs.
"Guinea pigsr' he exclaimed when
approached ON the subject. "Why,
their scarcity does not bother me at
ALL l haven't the slightest use for
them in researches. consider it n
grave error to study human therapeu-
tics through little animals. The tuber-
culosis of guinea pigs is no more that
of man than is the cancer in mice the
same as cancer in a human being.
"It is just because such masses Of
animals are killed uselessly in the
laboratories that therapeutic researches
of late have been sterile. l, like the
others, have made hecatombs Of guinea
pigs and have ascertained positively
that the results in animals are inap-
plicable to man.
'For example, 1 can inject twenty
doses of atropine into a guinea pig,
but the same amount would kill man.
Studies the Patient.
"My discoveries in cancer were made
purely because my laboratory was con-
nected directly with the operating
room. l always try my antitoxins on
myself. Diseases must be studied un-
der natural conditions so that their
natural evolution can be followed.
This was Pasteur's theory, and con-
formally thereto it was on man that
studied and discovered a treatment
for pneumonia, grip, erysipelas infec-
ton, measles and spinal meningitis. l
applied the method to a certain num-
Der of superior animals and hence was
enabled to cure numerous maladies of
dogs and horses.
"Let fewer guinea pigs be immolat-
ed. The sterility of laboratory re-
searches since the discovery of sero-
therapy by Behring and Roux shows
that we are on the wrong track"

POSSIBILITY OF

Present Situation the Most
Serious In the Industry
In This Country.

KWYHILE England has on lis
W hands a gigantic strike of
Wv coal miners, in which more
than 100000 men are idle,
the United States faces the most seri-
Gus situation in the coal industry that
it has yet had to consider. Although it
is by no means certain that a great
strike wili take place in any one of the
coal fields in this country, the danger
is sufficiently great to cause appre-
hension on the part of the operators
and workers alike.
Just how serious a strike in any field
would be can be seen essily enough
from a simple statement of the number
of men involved. A call from the la
Dor leaders for the anthracite miners
to walk out would in the event of a
protracted strike bring out from 150,-
600 to 175,000. A general strike in the
bituminous fields might even take 300,-
600 men out of the mines in several
states.
