SMITHSONIAN GETS
WOOD B|SON'S BONES
American Explorer Sends in
Skeleton Which Sets at Rest
Long Controversy.

Harry V. Radford. the American ex-
plorer who has been for several years
In the barren lands Of northern Canada,
has discovered the only herd OF wild
buffalo in existence, according to reports
coming to the Smithsonian institution
Radford sent word back early In the
summer to the factor Of the Hudson
Bay Company at HerscheI Island that
he would winter in the north lands with
the Eskimos for two years longer. He
Is dressed as an Eskimo, and is living
in their quarters.
Radford has sent back to the Smith
sonian Institution a skeleton OF one Of
the wood bison discovered by him,
which. scientists say, Will set at rest
the question as to whether the Tood
bison and the American prairie bison
are the same or different races Ths
two are entirely different, It is declared
Specimens OF the wood bison are ex
tremely rare. The one sent In by Rad
lord Is from an amman weighing over
1000 pounds. The explorer discovered
the herd in the Great SlaY Lake district.
and he will remain there for two years
to study the species.
The first authentic news from Radford
Edmonton by Howard Alien, who is in
terested in two whaling outfits which
go out from Herschel every year. Rad
ford's message reached HerscheI BY a
half-b breed guide, who laid in supplies
for him.
Two years ago there was a report
that Radford had gone insane and that
his guide had deserted him on the edge
Of the barren lands. The latter part of
the report is true, but Radford secured
native guides. He spent the winter OF
lSn-iZ along the Trenton river, across
the barrens, after leaving Fort Resolu-
ton. He was seen by fur traders, who
talked with him.
Radford started into far northwestern
canada to make the first field study Tn
der natural conditions of the wood
bison. FOR many years hunters brought
in stories of the existence of this animal
in the far northwest. but its charac-
teristics were unknown to the scientists

IN addition to the above bits Of news

II may be Of interest to washingtonians
to learn that James Lackaye, of wash

Mr.. Lackaye is an exceptionally fina
actor, despite his great weight, which
Is somewhere near 800. and his name
cannot be mentioned without recalling
the story OF the time when he reached
a strange city on a hot day without
a clean collar. He went out to fnd a
haberdasher. and was directed to a
harness shop.
Neither can one forget the time he
insisted On being called Jimpton Lack

had been changed to Wilton, he was
entitled to the same privilege. Mr.

advice on what to eat, drink, and
wear in the summer time has been
given before. and doubtless will be
given again and always more or less
to the same effect" said Surgeon Gen
eral Rupert Blue, OF the Public Health
Service. today. Medical men are a
unit in advising that one eat plenty of
fruits, green vegetables, and as little
meat as possible during the days when
the sun beats straight down and makes
the individual sizzle.
Eat sparingly OF starchy foods, like
potatoes, but eat plenty of such vegeta-
bles as agree with you. The individual
may find that certain vegetables are
not easily digested. Carrots and tur-
nips, II has been said. are excellent
food-for sheep. They are not excellent
food for all humans.
Some persons must have some meat
in the summer as we'll as in the winter,
and an absolute rule to fit every case
cannot, Of course, be laid down. But as
a general principle heavy consumption
of meat Is bad when the mercury Is
flirting with the top OF the tube.
THE advice given by physicians on
drinks in summer haE not changed
nor will 1t be. Leave alcohol alone.
II you will drink alcoholic drinks,
take them with the greatest possible
Most of the soft drinks on sale at
the soda fountains are good. CarbO-
mated water is not bad for one. and
water is all right, also.
But buttermilk Is a grand summer
drink, and sweet milk II pure is eX-
cellent. To be certain the sweet milk
Is good get the certified kind.
White clothes are the coolest as
everyone knows, and that light suits
are being worn more and more in
summer is a good thing for the public
health as we'll as for the laundry
man and the dry-cleaner. Blue under
wear is really seriously recommended
by scientists who study the compost

is not a very general practice. so far
as | have heard.
Clothes that do not bind anywhere
are much the coolest and the most
table in summer time. Nom
clothes are a good thing in
winter also, but more necessary when
the sun is working its hardest. Wear
1 thick enough straw hat to keep the
sun from heating your head. No
summer time advice is more i'm
portant than this"
