A dispatch from New York says:
Here, at last, is that carefully
guarded secret of the Friedman tu-
berculosis treatment. Dr. George Gil
bier Rambaud, head of the Fried
mann laboratories and also of the
Pasteur Institute, following his
statements chat he did not believe in
the Friedman policy of secrecy, yes
terday revealed the component ele-
ments Of the turtle vaccine which
has thus far been kept secret" Here
it is:
THE vaccine consists Of a homo
genous emulsion of virulent live
tubercie bacilli in sterile distilled
water. The germ was isolated seve-
raj years ago from turtle and
maintained ever since by transplant
tation on culture media, according to
the usual procedure. The vaccine Is
administered to patients in doses of
from &C. (cubic centimetres) 10 to
&C. 80 at intervals OF from four to
six weeks. Injections are made in
travenously in the case of joint tu-
berculosis and intramuscularly in
cases Of lung tuberculosis"

some particulars as that furnished
the board of health by the Elsner-
Mendelson Company following the
action of the board prohibiting fur
ther use Of the vaccine until full par
ticulars concerning it had been fur
nished and until the board had had
time to investigate and decide upon
the merits of the vaccine.
"It does not mean anything to
me-" said Dr.. John Van Doren
Young, secretary Of the County Med
ical Society, after reporter had
read DR.. Rambaud's statement to
him. Cali that is stated in the analy-
sis was already known before. 1t
gives us no new knowledge. Take
the first sentence, 1.-The vaccine con-
sists Of a homogeneous emulsion of
avirulent live bacilli in sterile dis
titled water" This Is absolutely
meaningless. What kind Of ho-
mogenous emulsion?
Regarding the dosage, the state
ment simply indicates that the dos
age is most unscientific. 1t Is not
standardized. AS Is we'll known, a
dosage Of &C. 10 might contain at
one time four times as many living
micro-organisms as at another. A
most unscientific method.
when vaccine containing dead
micro-organisms Is administered the
dosage is measured in cubic cent?
metres, and this method of measure
ment, according to medical authori-
ties, insures standardization, because
If 1t takes so many dead micro-or-
ganisms to make one cubic centime-
tire, 1t will take double that number
to make two. But 1t has been re-
peatedly proven that in dealing with
live micro-organisms, the rule will
not apply. Live hac!i!i grow and
multiply according to no fixed rule.
dosage of &C. 40 may contain two
million live micro-organisms or it
may contain four million.

DodsOn's Liver Tone Gets "a Four
Square Guarantee from Bells
Drug Store.

When an article is sold by q drug
gist who Is willing to give 1t his per-
sonal guarantee, it's mighty strong
proof of real merit.
That s exactly the case with Dod-
sons liver Tone. 1t Is a pleasant
tasting vegetable remedy for a slow
and sluggish liver. Since Dodson' s
Liver Tone came on the market the
sale of calomel has gone way down.
The reason is simply this: Dodson' g
Liver Tone is safe and harmless and
guaranteed to be satisfactory. Cal
omel Is often uncertain, sometimes
dangerous, and no druggist wants to
guarantee that 1t won't knock you
out OF a days work and maybe send
you to bed. %
Bells Drug Company sells Dod-
sons Liver Tone and guarantees It.
For you and your children, it's a
good thing to keep bottle always
in the house.
Bells drug company will give you
your money back IL you think Dod-
sons Liver Tone Is not worth the
price. "Keep your liver working and
your liver will not keep you, from

Now Are the Days
Children Need Care
SUMMER HEAT DANGEROUS TO
LITTLE ONES WHOSE BOW
ELS ARE NEGLECTED.

A mother cannot do better for her
children than to teach them from
their earliest days regularity Of the
bowels. Regularity can be promot-
ed without the child knowing it by
watching its food and by so varying
the food that all the elements Of di-
gestion are used, when nature will
do the rest. The future health of the
child depends upon this.
But try as you will there are times
when the little one will become con-
stipated and bilious. In hot weather
immediate attention Is necessary, as
many serious diseases result from
stuffed-up bowels. Don't give salts
or cathartics or purgatives, as they
are too harsh, but give Il gentle,
pleasant-tasting bowel stimulant like
Or. Celdwel,'s Syrup Pepsin. 1t has

son, who, had accompanied him az

Their aeroplane capsized from an

Transporting Live Fish Frozen I'm Ice.
(East and Vest

Fish belong to the class of ami
mails that have variable body tenn
perature, depending on the temper
ature OF their environment. In ex-
treme cold they ASST me a rigid con-
dition, in which all of the vital func-
tions are suspended, while life still
remains present. During several
mt nths of each year some of the
gre, rivers of Siberia are frozen
sol' to the bottom, but many of the
ashes imprisoned in the ice retain
their vitality and resume their active
life when the ice melts in the spring
This fact has suggested expert
ments in the freezing of live fish for
transportation, which are discussed
in the Fischerei Zeitung. Many years
ago the celebrated physicist Pictet,
of Geneva, put fresh-water fishes into
tub of water, which he kept LIQUID
at the freezing point for twenty-four
hours, and then allowed to freeze
slowly into solid block of ice, which
afterwards was cooled gradually to
20 degrees. centigrade-(4 degrees
Fahrenheit. When the ice was
melted, month or even two months
afterwards, the fishes began to swim
as briskly as they did before freez-
i
health.
Similar experiments have recently
been made in France. The fishes are
placed In water, which is kept near
the freezing point for a few hours,
then at the freezing point for fifteen
TO eighteen hours, and finally frozen
by immersing the vessel in freez-
ing mixture, producing a cake of ice
few inches thick, in which the
frozen fishes are irrbedded. This.
cake Is wrapped In cloth and sur
rounded with n Notwithstanding pack
ing TO prevent melting during trans
portation. 1T Is necessary to thaw
the ice very slowly and to keep the
water near the freezing point several
hours In order to preserve the life of
the fishes. Even those which do not
survive are In a perfect state of pres
ervation.
