He was deliberately risking his life
for the child, as surely as the soldier
goes back to rescue a wounded COM
ra6e under fire. +. 49,.
That his splendid sacrifice was in
vain was the bitterest thing of all.
though it does not in any way de-
tract from the heroism of the deed.
His own life was undoubtedly in dan
ser afterwards, as that night he was
very i'll. ...>.. -.
Il went through the South African
war, and have seen brave acts, but the
bravest / saw anywhere, was that
which was enacted in that little Itch
ell. & -r..,
The memory of the dying child on
the Scotch bed in front of the fire, and
the. beautiful courage and devotion of
the doctor, will never fade.
He was an entire stranger to me,
and shall probably never see him
again, but count myself proud and
fortunate even to have known for so
short a period an unknown hero"
The doctor was Dr. John Munro

SCOTTISH DOCTORS
SUBLIME HEROISM

GLASGOW, Nov. 23.-Exceptional
heroism does not need battlefield or
a sudden calamity, as setting. Its
merit is the same If it be achieved
amid the ordinary happenings of
everyday life. = III.
Such tale of quiet, splendid hero.
ism comes from Scotland.
The scene was the humble cottage
of laborer and his wife, in one of
the outlying districts of Glasgow.
Their boy of five years was dying of
diphtheria. The crisis had come with
terrible raptdity, and the doctor was
in all haste. 60
What happened is told in these
words by the witness:
Il shall never forget to my dying
day the scene in the little cottage
kitchen with the dying child lying on
the bed in front of the fire and the
parents, grief-strickent, sitting in a
semi-dazed condition.
There was gas jet burning. but
the room seemed to be lit by freight
l could only see this, and the child.
When the doctor arrived its con-
dition was critical. The disease was
as, advanced as it could be without
actual death. Directly the doctor saw
the boy, he saw that it was ease
fol instant action.
Without moments hesitation he
decided on the last desperate remedy.
Making an incision in the child's
throat, he knelt down and proceeded
deliberately to suck out the virulent
poisonous diphtheria matter in the
windpipe. -. 49,.
mot once, bu two and three times
he put his mouth to. the little boys
throat, with apparently not the slight
est thought of the terrible danger he
vas himself running.

DEVELOPING THE FRUIT
INDUSTRY OF MEXICO

Consul William w Canada at Vera
Cruz, Mexico. a late report says:
On July there arrived on the
La Navarro at St Nazaire. France
consigned to the Mexican consul gen
eral, 10 sample punches of bananas
OF various varieties. They had been
shipped by the Camara Nacional de
Concrete, of Vera Cruz, in an Ell
deavor to find a market for the out
put of this district The bananas
were distributed by the consul and,
although no arrangements were made
for future shipments. the consul ad-
yises that the fruit was well received
and commanded good price. He ad-
vised that, although a demand ex-
listed for such fruit in the cities of
Nantes with 100000 inhabitants, An
ceres with $4,000, Rennes with $4,000,
Tours with 10000, Mans with $1,000
and st. Nazaire, no Mexican bananas
came to that promising market.
Bananas to Hamburg
With view of extending the sale
OF Mexican fruits in Europe, the
Mexican government, through it's pub
lie improvement department, made
trial shipment OF. bananas to Ham
burg on one of the direct steamers of
the Hamburg-American Line. They
were consigned to the Hamburg-C Co
lombian Banana Co, which is said to
be shipping bananas, from Central
American ports and from Frontera,
Mexico, in it's own vessels. This ship
ment was transported in the cold
storage of the ship at temperature
Of 6 degrees to degrees C.. On ar.
rival at Hamburg the consignees ex-
amined the shipment and, although
they advised that the storage tenn
perature was too low, they were salts
lied with the quality and agreed to
lake the output of the growers here.
The steamship line agreed to handle |
the fruit on consideration that on
ZACH, bimonthly trip not less than !
200 to 1880 punches would be sent |
depending on the size of the ship and !
storage capacity. The consignees |
gree to. start their own ships as |
;oon as the output reaches $4,000 to
10000 lunches weekly. This fruit /

ions as to time of cutting, classifi,

Fruit Growing Rewarded
Every inducement has been offered
by the Legislature of Vera Cruz TO
anchors in an attempt to encourage
he growing of fruit An act of the
legislature, passed on July 3, 1912,
provides for monetary remuneration
and prizes TO those who shall make
the best Roadway in fruit growing
Prizes of 500 to 1000 will be award
ed to hacendados who shall plant and
be the first to harvest crops from or
chards of oranges, mangOes, and
pineapples.
The orchards must have 1000 to
10000 orange, lemon, cocao or Manila
mango trees, 10000 to 100000 pine
apple plants of the Cayenne or Esmer-
aldo variety, or 5000 to $4,000 banana
plants Of the Roatan class. AS a
special inducement, all companies or
private owners planting a part or the
whole of their land to fruits will be
exempted from land taxes for 10
years and viii be given 10 per cent
of maritime or land freight to the
nearest port or railway shipping sta
ton where they can market their
products for 5 years. Commercial
companies win also be offered special
inducements to establish businesses
in the state and will be granted spec
ial tax concessions for years All
capital invested in irrigation projects
will be exempt from taxation for 10
years
Vera Cruz is the first state to take
such marked action for encouraging
industries favorable to development.
Several states have offered conces-
sions to companies at times. but none
have passed law providing for a
permanent and definite incentive.
In addition, the new law provides
for instruction in the American sys-
tenn of dry farming and rotation and
of crops for those in
This state assistance, in
conjunction with the efforts of the
National government, to develop a
market for Mexican fruits should
mean an area of prosperity for the
fruit-growing districts of Mexico, of |
which this is one 49,.
