SCIENTIST DISCOVERS
TUBERCULOSIS SERUM
American Declares Vaccine In
surfing Immunity Is Not
Dangerous.

CHICAGO. May 20-A serum which its
discoverer believes gives immunity from
tuberculosis has been announced in Chi
cago. The discoverer Is an American
scientist. DR.. Karl Won Ruck of Asheville.
y. c. First reports Of the experiments
on which he bases his contentious were
given to the Chicago Medical Society in
a paper prepared by DR.. Won Ruck.
An elaboration OF the paper appeared
in THE Journal Of the American Medi-
cal Association and is to be followed
by additional information which DR.. Won
Ruck hopes will revolutionize the world
wide warfare against the white plague.
DR.. Won Ruck has found a vaccine
which he says will kill the germs Of
tuberculosis in a latent stage and make
ages of the disease Experiments made
on children and counter experiments
made on animals are said to have de-
Inonstrated the value of the discovery.
DR.. Won Ruck does not yet assert 1t will
cure consumption in its advanced stages.
First to Gain Success.
"An I feel justified in claiming" says
the physician. in his statement to The
Journal of the Medical Association" rs
that am the first to have made sue
cessfui advent In this most important
and promising field of specific prophy-
laxis. in a disease that leads the NOR
tally statistics Of the human race"
The hint that DR.. Won Ruck has given
to the scientific world Of the composition
OF his serum Is IN the following words:
THE preparation that have made and
used contains all the solubl, proteid con-
stituents of the tubercule bacillus, with
the addition of a small amount Of fatty
extractives. 1t would require far too
much space to describe the mode Of prep
aration at this time. but this viii ap-
pear at an early date"
DR.. Won Ruck says his vaccine Is alb
solutely free from real or even supposed
danger. powerful enough to act on one
or two applications. uniform In action to
a degree that results need not be con-
trolled in practice. and so simple that
any physician can apply 1t.
Dr. Won Ruck has vaccinated $50 chill
dren since July 1, 1911. including such as
had already acquired a tuberculosis In
fectlon. but in latent form. In none
OF these children has there been any dis
agreeable effect as result of the vac
cination. he asserts.

All this led to the famous Central

tens Of thousands OF acres Of grazing

deplorable state. There has been no new
infusion OF blood in their cattle since the
days OF Spanish dominion. and they usu-
ally reverse the ordinary procedure in
selecting their breeding stock. Elsewhere
tho best cattle are reserved for breeding
purpose. Here the best cattle go to the
butchers block, and the result has been
a great deterioration in the character OF
the cattle on the ranges. The cattle
mature slowly. Bullocks are not ready
for the butcher until they are about Ave
years old. Butchering consists In the

Philatelists Express Doubt.
The announcement that Abdul Hamid
II. the ex-Sultan Of Turkey. has sold
his collection Of postage stamps to an
Englishman for 100000 is regarded by
expert philatelists as arising from
some confusion of facts.
When Abdul Hamid was driven from
the throne the new government FOUND
q vast collection Of remainders and
quarters In Constantinople. These
numbered some 100000. What to
do with them puzzled the authorities.
but at last they decided to dispose OF
them. The stamps were sold at auc-
ton and scattered over the world:
Their value from a collectors point OF
view was not. however, very great.
An authority at the Strand offices OF
Stanley Gibbons bore this out, and
Young Turk party commenced the sale
of the private property Of the late
sultan, the firm bought what there is
every reason to believe was the only
private collection made by Abdul
Hamid. 1t is contained in Ave volumes.

to take his hearers into the speculative

he said directly to the lefties:
Lets don't give up hope. for we are

AS they all sat there. there was no pos

left handed ones until they arose to sing.
Then 1t was easy, for the sons and
daughters Of Ehud, the original biblical

This was on the card handed to members

The doctor went right after his topic
and said that q man is no more RESPONSE
BILE for being left-handed than for being
red-headed. This was good opening for
the redheads In the congregation to APP
plaud with the right hand. but they
couldn't because 1t was in church.
All life Is on the left hand" said the
preacher, and the evidence bore out Che

and most Of the mosquitoes that drifted

NEW YORK, May 2O.-The Knights
and LAdise Of Ehud, more readily rec
ognixed in the everyday world as LEFT
handlers, southpaws. daubers or port
wheelers. had their innings last night.
The field was the Methodist Episcopal
Church In Orange. where a meeting for
loyal left-handers had been planned by
the pastor. William Frye. D. D.
The doctor, who talks considerably
with his left. pitched forty-fve-minute
sermon on the virtues and advantages
Of his fellows. and handed out some
original left-handed data that had es-
capped his advance notices. AS he stood
facing his large congregation there were
left handlers to the left of him. left
handlers to the right of him and left
handlers In front Of him.
There were southpaws from all the
Oranges and adjacent parts, from New
Brunswick, from Hoboken and Jersey
City, and even from Brooklyn. to say
nothing Of those absent ones who were
represented by letter-the woman In
Flushing who devoted her life to being
left-handed and who consequently al
ways did right, and the carpenter from
Elizabeth who thought the fact that he
could use his right and left hands equal
ly well had something to do with his
being ambidextrous.
