RAISES A FArHlRLEss FROG
Work Of q Scientist Seems to Pre-
sage Discovery Of an Entirely
New Life Principle.

The "fatherless frog" raised" By
the eminent biologist, Prof. Jacques
Loeb, was one of the many interesting
exhibits at the recent international
Congress OF Hygiene and Demography.
The frog, or rather the frog and a tad
pole raised in the same manner. ap-
pear on exhibition in a glass Jar, and
attract a large amount OF attention as
presaging the discovery Of a new life
principle which. II It could be ap-
piled to other animals, would have
startling results.
According to Professor Loeb's expia-
nation Of the frogs birth" the ami
NAL was made to exist by submitting
the egg of a female frog to chemical
process.
The egg was what is known as a
sterile" one, and could not have de-
veloped naturally. Under Doctor
Loeb's treatment, however, It passed
through all the rudimentary stages
and became tadpole, then a full
developed frog, perfectly healthy and
possessing all the senses of natural"
animal Of the same class.
The process by which this frog was
developed Is known among scientists
as "parthenogenesis," and is radically
different from the process by which
German scientist recently claimed to
have developed life by chemical means
without aid Of the male Of the species.
Professor Loeb, in speaking before the
Hygiene and Demography congress,
said that he hoped to carry his secret
process still further and predicted
startling developments In the new
science within few years.

In a poor school in Bermondsey,
England. the master was dealing with
the subject of the Prodigal Son. He
described to the boys how the young
man insisted upon having his share
OF wealth while his father was sim
alive; how he went away to a far
country, and how he spent his money
in riotous living. Now" said the
master, what does that mean-spend-
ing his money In riotous living7"
Going rarnd abart drinking from one

one scholar. HEM" said the teach
er. What do you say7" And he

Shortage of cattle and a lack OF rain

own. are the highest they have ever been
During the last ten days the price Of
beef has risen about 5 cents a pound.
and vegetables have also scared to prices
that have soldom been eqGaled. Several
Of the dealers. even though the whole
salers have chargd them more for their
products. have refused TO raise the price
when retailing their purchases
Porterhouse steaks, which few weeks
ago sold for 3 cents per pound, have
been raised to 40 cents, and round steak
has advanced from IS to % cents per
pound The price OF ham has SCARED
from 20 TO g cents per pound during the
last week. and bacon has risen from Is
to IS cents per pound.
The dry weather has caused white po-
tatoes TO sell for IS cents per peck, when
they formerly sold for Is cents per peck.
Sugar corn, which a short time ago sold
for 80 cents a dozen. is now bringing ~
cents a dozen. Canteloupe is one COM
modify which has not advanced in price
with the other foodstuffs. It's cost has
decreased about 30 per cent.
Complaints are being heard In all the
larse cities in the country over the high
prices being exacted for meats and vege-
tables. Pittsburgh faces the most seris
Gus meat famine in the city's history.
Prices have risen there to about the
same rate they have in Washington.

William B. Wilson asks for an appro-
priation of $500 to- supply the Dcpar.'
ment OF Labor with three automobiles.

his department should be provided with

5000: an electric runabout, at an esti-
mated cost of $500. and an electric
truck. at an estimated cost of 5000.

money to provide the Speaker with an
automobile and the machine was pur-
erased. When It arrived, however. Mr..
Clark refused to accept it. declaring that
he was satisfied TO ride in street car
whenever he was unable to walk.
