ried unduly over them have hard
ening arteries and are killed or dis
abled by apoplexy.
In their hardened blood vessels
there may be softening spots which,
bulged by the hydraulic pressure of
the blood, form little aneurisms. A
little extra strain on the vessels,
caused by some violent emotion or
the lifting of a heavy weight or run
ming to catch a train may then rup-
ture one or more of these little an
eurisms and so let the blood pour
into the brain tissue.
If the blood escapes rapidly and in
large amount it causes immediate
loss of consciousness and paralysis;
if the blood escapes gradually and in
small amount it causes either severe
headache and tingling and numbness
in one or more of the limbs, or pro-
.gressive loss Of power, gradual dull
ing of the mental faculties mad ulti-
mate unconsciousness.
ApopleXy is not always fatal; in
deed complete recovery without any
paralysis sometimes occurs. The suf-
ferer's immediate fate is commonly
decided in two or three days-either
he does without regaining conscious
ness or his mental faculties gradually
return. He is then seen to be par
alyzed in either one arm or in one
leg, or in one side of the fact, or in
all three.
In less serious cases the paralysis
lessons, the facial expression becomes
normal and the limb regain their
power. Even when the paralysis is
permanent there is almost always
more or less improvement for some
weeks. after the stroke.
Apoplexy can be treated only by
the physician, but those who fear an
attack can do much to avert it. Quiet
and calm should for them be the
rule of life. They should never make
any severe muscular effort. They
should never run for cars or climb
stairs quickly. They should avoid
hearty meals and the drinking of
much fluid, even water, at any one
time.-Youth's Companion.

REASONS WHY YOU MAY BE
A VEGETABLE AFTER ALL

You may be a vegetable.
There is no certainty that man is an
animal. Scientists are now endeavor-
ing to find out just what is animal life
and what is vegetable life and to de-
fine the difference between the two.
The scientist Haeckel is the most in
terested in this discussion. There is
some doubt about life cells being ami
NAL, as heretofore believed by man
AS man is constructed of these minute
life cells, he thus is not certain but
that he may belong to the vegetable
kingdom.
Great as is now the accumulated
knowledge of the bacteria, the ques-
ton of their ALLEGATION to the vegeta-
BILE or to the animal kingdom grows
constantly more complex. Unless the
suggestion Of Haeckel be adopted, ii
begins to look to some authorities on
the whole subject as if the world Of
science must fundamentally modify its
idea of the real difference between a
man and a vegetable. 1t is along this
line that the discussion tends to pro
long itself.
If some Investigators have found it
difficult to decide whether bacteria are
plants or animals, others find a grow
ing difficulty in classification. Never
theless, the form of bacteria is exceed
ingly simple.

MACHINE TRAWL THREATENS
THE NEW ENGLAND FISHERIES

present Of a brand new trust Fresh |
Fish Trust, controlling not only the
market, but the supply.
The schooner fisherman are the last
of that race OF Yankee seamen who
fought the rafting sea-hghts of the
Revolution, who won the war Of 1912,
who helped on the water to rush the
Rebellion, and who, as lately as the
war with Spain, were officially recog-
Rized for their physical superiority to
the rank and file of enlisted men from
inland These men do keep alive the
old maritime traditions of the nation.
They navigate a type of schooner
which is declared by foreign shipmas-
tiers to be unmatched for grace, speed
and seaworthiness. They fill our eyes
and ears, through the daily press, at
least once a month, with some Off
shore exploit of daring or gallantry
which belongs more to Legendary
period than to ours. They are all that
remain of the men who made possible
the halycon days of the American
merchant marine; and, indeed, they
are the children of those men, with
salt water in their blood, driven into
the fishing fleets as the last resort on
| this coast of men who desire to deal
directly with the sea.
A nation of sailors is not trained in
year, nor in ten years. By piece Of
incredible folly, which has only begun
to be recognized by the nation gener-
ally an invincible merchant navy was
allowed to decay. These men, and a
few coastwise shippers, are all that
remain from it. But until that mer-
chant navy can be revived, they are
perpetuating the tradition-or prom
ised to, until confronted with this
latest enemy, the steam trawler. Off
GERS of the navy have frankly con-
fessed that they would count on" the
men of the New England fishing fleet
in an emergency.
Meanwhile, what of the Bay State
Fishing Company, which has launch
ed this fleet of steamers? 1t sits tight,
saying little: It's attorney, Billy Gar
celon, who, in times Of peace, pilot
the Harvard Athletic Association
through truublous waters, has issued
a statement blandly to assure the
public that scientific men are almost
unanimously opposed to further restric-
ton" It is, perhaps, superfuous to re-
mark that most scientists know rath-
er less about such matters than the
practical men who are catching the
fish. But for the rest the silence OF
the company is mysterious and taken
generally to mean that it's arguments
are to be conducted in the Hobbies OF
the national capitol. Admiral Bowles
is said to have invested heavily in the
! enterprise. Incidentally, the Fore Riv
er Ship Building Company, at Quincy
T of which he is president, has just
completed two new steamers for this
, industry. The Admiral, also is saying
=. little.
. But everywhere along the coast
!. from Nantucket to Nova Scotia, the
: ports, large and small, and even thu
newspapers of places further inland
are one in their alarm at this recog
! nized peril of the fisheries.
