FRIEDMAN CURE NOT HE.
New York Physician says 81. Pies.,

Paris, May 7.-Dr. william j. Beat
Tie Of New York and New Hampshire,
who has spent three months in Beriia
investigating the tuberculosis serum Of
Dr. Max Piorkowski, while enthusia s1ic
over Its good effects in incipient cases
OF the disease, says that at presen, It
Is almost criminal TO tell persons in
advanced stages Of the disease that
they can be cured.
Dr. Beattie says it is pathetic in
Berlin to see hundreds OF Americans
who have mortgaged their homes and
theirs farms and everything .,se.
hanging about DIR. Friedmanns csIab-
ltshment in the expectation OF being
cured.
DR.. F'riedmann's claims to being tho
discoverer of the turtle bacilli are eM-
phatically disputed by DIR. Beattie. He
said yesterday the real discovercl was
DR.. Piorkowski the German bacter-
iologist, in whose laboratory DR.. Fried
mann worked, and he, ridicules DR..
Friedmann's contention that nc alone
possesses the secret of the production
Of the bacilli.
DR.. Beattie said he will take ,if-
ficient amount Of the turtle baciJN tu-
berculin to treat 1000 patients when
he sails for New York, Saturday. He
has also arranged to get continuous
supply from DIR. Piorkowslli.
DR.. Beattie is enthusiastic over the
results of the turtle bacilli cure in the
first. and beginning Of the secondary
stages of tuberculosis.
by cure ! do not mean the disc
ease is simply arrested but that an
absolute cure accomplished by abso-
lutte immunity from the return Of the
disease is established. The use of the
turtle bacilli is still in it's infancy but,
judging by the progress Of the last few
months, am hopeful the day will come
when it will be possible 20 cure even
advanced cases."

Cattle.
steers were steady but the cattle
market on the whole was dull. Butcher
stock was little more in demand
than were other grades.
Bulk OF business Wednesday was
easily - cents lower than the close
last wceI, and 15m25 cents lower than
one week ago yesterday. In a good
many cases the plain and medium
steers sold down within 10 cents OF the
low spot shown ten days ago. a level
which the trade had recently been en-
Il ii
materialize this month. Too many
cattle turned the trick, however. and
now there is going up in the trade the
same old cry of Hold en- back 1t is
d situation as has been constantly
pointed out in these columns, when a
few too many steers can easily effect
sharp price breaks, and unless the
country hceds present day warnings
return to the recent low-price basis

a high market, when the dead COST OF
beef is concerned, and they will well
come opportunity to break the values
a whole lot more in the belief that fur
Their decline for steers will enable re-
tail prices to go lower and thus effect
a broadening Of the consumer outlet.
That the decline was not entirely
logical was sellers argument and they
pointed 10 the week to date run, when
totals only 1880, a supply balancing
the crop here in the same three days
last week and $500 less than year
ago. Shippers have taken practically
as many cattle as last week and thus
the supply for local distribution ba
noes with that Of a week ago. Still
the distribution has been Il little too
uneven. Had there been 2l.Oo0 cattle
here Monday and 5000 to $4,000 Wed
nesday, conditions doubtless would
have been better from sellers stand
point. since the shipper demand yes
terday lacked the urgency shown Mon
day, and packers having things their
own way went after the crop at wide
declines.
Sheep.
Sheep and lambs were slow out
steady. Sheep sold better than lambs
and some attempt was made by puf-
chaseYs to get lower quotations on COL
oraGo wooden stocks.

SANTA CLAUS SAYS

About two-thirds of all the cloves
come from a little island named
Pemba that lies about five degrees
south of the equator, just within sight
of the mainland of Africa, between
Mombasa and Zanzibar. The island
of Pemba is only 35 miles long and
ten wide. 1t is a low, jungle-covered,
fever-haunted spot, surrounded by
coral reefs and inhabited by indolent,
unintelligent and improvident natives
and small handful of Europeans.
The Glove tree is singularly deli
cate and must have a combination of
climatic conditions that exist in few
places on earth. Where it will grow
at all it will grow wild and in pro-
fusion.
Capt. j. g. e. Craster of the Brit.
ish Royal Engineers has just publish
ed an account of a survey he made of
the island. He estimates the average
yield of a tree to be 35 pounds of
cloves, and says that with little at
tention to the plantations this could
easily be doubled.

Time for Reflection.

An old negro parson in southern
church was denouncing theft to his
congregation, when he said:
"If there is any member of this
congregation who is guilty of theft
he had better repent at once and be
saved"
On his way home he was stopped
by Old Rastus, who had listened to
the sermon intently.
Don't you think, parson, that next
Sunday will do just as we'll as tonight
to repent?" asked Rastus.
"But, Rastus, why not repent to.
night and be saved, man."
"Well, parson, it's this way" ex
planned Rastus. II want just one mo-
chicken TO- tomorrow dinner, and ]
know wha' I can get dat chicken wild
out bein' caught tonight"
We'll" said the parson, hesitating
II don't know what to say, SO / think
will take dinner with you tomorrow
and then talk the matter over with
you."-National Monthly.
