HARD TASK FOR CAM0yS
His Lordship Starts to Reform
England's Pure Food Laws.
IBy cable to The Tribun,.1

London. June 12-Lord Camoys who
married Mildred Sherman, of New York
last November. has been aroused by his
wife to q desire TO do something. The
young man has never given his attention
hitherto 10 anything more important than
skirt dancing. but is now imbued with
the purpose TO live an active and useful
Gus a Iield for reformation as the food
and drug laws of England. He takes the
country wife as a model, and says he In
tends to secure new laws in England on
lines American. He has already been
elected chairman of the executive com
mittee of the Food and Health Society.
England is far behind America in the
matter Of pure food and drug laws" he
said yesterday. I'VE intend to get Par
lament TO pass bill modelled along the
lines OF the American law. ! observed
the working of tie law in America. one
Of the things that struck me most was
that milk was delivered in America In
sealed bottles. Here you get milk
poured from a dirty can. measured in
dirty measure and all handled by men
with dirty hands Our bread, too, is de-
livered by a bakers boy, who hugs it TO
his dirty bosom and handles it with un-
clean hands. The bread is not neatly
wrapped. as it Is in America. where 1t
comes TO the table clean and wholesome
After seeing the American butcher
shops ours are disgrace. Meat here is
spread on old and dirty tables, and no
attempt is made TO keep anything In the
shop clean. I wonder that the whole
nation is not poisoned. Meat IL often
snoiled long before il is offered for sale
whereas i'm American shops the meat is
uroperIv inspected and model methods
nc kcepjng meat fresh and pure are fol-
lowed. America is years ahead of Eng
land
Another thing with which ! was I'M
pressed while in America Is that the IN
Gradients Of sauces, patent medicines
and patcnt foods are printed plainly on
,hc labels. Such thing is unknown
bore and would be most beneficial. Eng
land is years behind America III this' TOO

10 PROLONG SPAN OF LIFE
Death from Old Age Is To Be
STAYED Off by This Microbe.

Paris. June 11.-There is considerable
discussion among scientists in France
I'm regard to the announcement by Pro-
fessor Metchnikoff, of the Pasteur Insti-
tute, that he is studying the effective
ness of microbe called "glycobacter'
as a preventive Of the effects of age.
Professor Armand Gautier. who is d
member Of the Academy of Sciences, as
well as the Academy of Medicine. and
Professor Berillon, while admitting in
terest in Professor Metchnikoff's study,
are inclined to doubt its practicability.
Professor Metchnikoff says he has
found beneticient microbe in the intes-
tines of a dog, which, if implanted in
the intestines of man, would probably
generate sufficient sugar TO destroy the
human intestinal microbes which are re-
sponsible for the maladies of old age.

The FInancier will say:
The statement of the New York clear
ing house banks for the week ending Au-
gust 10 was decidedly favorable, al
though the changes in various items
We're not strikingly important Chief in
terest conferred around the report of cash
changes, and the exhibit based on actual
conditions showed that the banks had
gained SI,S44,OO0 in cash which was
slightly less than had been anticipated
earlier in the week. There was a small
increase of $!stl00o in loans. while net
deposits rose $3,S9i.oOo The latter in
crease called for additional reserve re-
heavy enough to wipe out the effect
of cash gain, and the clearing institu-
tons increased their cash reserve by
$:.sy.3H, making the present excess over
the - per cent minimum, So, 70S. $50
The statement worked out on the system
of averages was even more favorable
excess reserve standing at 81 .436, OOb.
The summary of trust companies, made
independently, showed that these institu
lions are also strengthening their posi-
ton by the eXpedient of curtaiing loans
and reducing deposits, their reserve on
