BURNED SKIN A DEADLY POISON

For many the deaths which resulted from severe burns attributed shock Such burns are among the commonest accidents that befal Workmen, and their treatment has been grave problem with the medical profession. Women and children, too, because of the fimsy and nfam mable character of their clothing, very often victims such burns.
 Dr. Pels-Leusden made some researches upon the theory that these burns produced other inuri- ous effects in addition to the shock he system His theory that the sudden destruc- ton of the skin generated a violent poison which was absorbed by the blood this played a lead ing part in causing death. He experiments in which he inserted portions freshly burned skin into the flesh of animals where they be rapidly absorbed These animals present. ed the symptoms that they would have shown if their own skin had been burned
 This discovery seems likely to revoutionize the surgical treatment of burns Instead of merely ap- plying germieides and excluding the air by sooth- ing oils and powders, place patient at under anesthetic and scrape away all the burned tissue. The exposed surface Is then dressed with absorbent cotton take up the discharges, and the heart kidneys are stimulated to throw off whatever poison has been absorbed before operation could be Derformed The Worlds Work.

THE ARMY OF UNMARRIED

According census bureau information IT. GOO of population unmarried, which means thirty o every 100 The number divides thus: Men of 20 years of age and upward S1O20O0; 15 and upward. 9O0Ooo0 At least 5,O00,0OO of these capable of assum- ing the responsibilities of matrmony. It IS argued that married live longer and better lives than unmarried whole, and surely woman in land will tell you that the fair are always fair e if welded.
 Since the married state is the normal condition of life perhaps it may not be necessary to resort statistics prove that the married men as a rule lives evenly, more soberly, and, there better than the unmarried. When the census bureau official attempts, however, to lure men into marriage with the argument that there never a time when the comforts and luxures of life easily within reach of all as now he must take his case and fight it out.
 In all seriousness, most people realize. this very question of the with which the forts and luXuries of life reached enters into the economy of the matrmonally inclined man. Seventeen million unmarried and may be too many for our nation. and there is small doubt that the number would be less if could only the practical side of that old theory that two live cheap one.'-

WHEN YOUR TEETH ACHE
In a recent discovery of human
remains in England said to belong to
a long past and very obscure pre-
historic period it was noted that the
teeth were much worn and that most
of the molar teeth had been lost pre-
maturely through disease. The dis
ease, however, was not that which
affects the teeth of modern civilized
races, namely, carries, but assesses
formed, at the roots, as result from
overwear of the teeth with exposure
of the pulp cavities.
Up to the 18th century, which
marks the dawn of dental science in
Britain, the extraction of teeth was
undertaken by BARRIERS and loqUa-
cious charlatans who were to be met
with at every country fair exorting
sufferers to have their teeth pulled
out free of pain
Dentistry was first alluded to, how
ever, as distinct vocation by Herod-
otus $500 B. c., but at an earlier
date the Egyptians and Hindus at
tempted to replace lost teeth by at
taching wood or ivory substitutes to
adjacent sound teeth by means of
threads or wires. Not even the crude
instruments of torture in use in the
18th century were known to the cave
man of ancient Britain who had to
content himself with the doubtful ex-
pedient of knocking out the offending
molar with a f1int-or grin and
bear it.

COLOR PHOTOGRAPHY.
The Ingenious Process That Was Per.
fected by Lumiere.

The Ingenious Process That Was Per.
fected by Lumiere.
Perfection of color photography
has long been the dream of those
who work with shutter and screen
and plate and have seen the image
thrown upon the ground glass of
the camera with it's perfect colora-
ton. Today the making of such
photographs direct from the object
is possible by the Lumiere process.
In 1910 A. Lumiere of Lyons,
France, perfected a Photographic
plate which, exposed in an ordinary
camera and developed, showed the
picture in color as the eye sees it.
For ten years the greatest ex-
perts in scientific photography had
been working on the problem. Lu-
miere, experimenting alone in his
laboratory in France, discovered
the secret early in the year 1910.
His method was to coat the glass
plate with a varnish upon which he
placed thousands of microscopically
small starch grains, dyed the three
primary colors. These small specks
of starch were sptead over the plate
in such proportion that they pro-
duced white, yet seen through a
powerful magnifying glass they
showed the COMPOSITION of the three
colors.
Next a coating of waterproof var
nish was put over the starch grains,
and the Photographic sensitized
emulsion over all. The plate was
placed in the camera with the glass
side next to the lens, so that the
image formed by the lens when the
shutter was opened passed through
the grains of color before recording
on the sensitized coating. The plate
was developed in the ordinary man
ner, producing a negative.
Here again the ingenuity of Lu-
miere came to the task, and he solv-
ed the problem of turning the mega
tive into positive by chemical
process. In the negative the colors
are complementary to the true col
ors of the object. To convert the
negative into positive Lumiere re-
duced all the black in the various
densities by a chemical process and
darkenea all that was light, revers-
ing all values completely and allow
ing the light to illuminate the true
colors.-New York Post.

No blotch can be seen at the time OF

TERSONS operating land for profit
E% need to study such questions
IL as these: !.
What commodities are easiest
to produce and sell in nearby markets.
To what line of production is the soil
best adapted?
Suppose there are good cash markets
close at hand, which crops or products
pay the best?
What line of produce will distribute
the labor most evenly through the year!
A practical arrangement Is to keep
one hired man for every dozen dairy
cows and to have such a diversity OF
work summer and winter as will keep
the help profitably employed through
the day as we'll as at milking time. A
good poultry plant balances the pro-
gram nicely. Twenty four cows are
none too many for place of fifty to
eighty acres. 1t Is not the best kind Of
farming to allow cattle to roam at will
in large pasture. 1t is more profitable
to give them merely a few acres OF
range that may afford pasture through
May and June and depend on the cult
waited land to raise most Of their fod-
der.
As a rule pastures become dry In
midsummer and the supply of milk can
not be kept up without silage, hay or
soiling crops. By the LIST Of July
farmer should have vetch. alfalfa or
combination like oats and peas. An ex-
cellent kind of summer feed Is pro-
duced by sowing rye and clover in the
fall. This can be cut for hay in June.
There ought to be corn silage all the
year round for any kind Of cattle. but
particularly for dairy animals
With well managed little dairy like
this the owner can clear 500 to $3.50
q month above the cost of labor and
the rental value of the land. The prod
uce may be handled liz the form Of
cream and butter. and this system
leaves large supply of skinned milk
for pigs and poultry. The dairy should
clear at the least $1,000 q year, be-
sides paying ali the wages and other
operating expenses, and 5000 ought to
be made In hogs and 5000 In poultry,
besides something from vegetables and
fruit
