It was found that two eggs could
be amalgamated to form one gigantic
creature.
Professor Dawson Turner proceeded
upon the plan Of applying the degree
Of radio activity, which had already
been useful In stimulating plant
growth, to the body cells of the frog
embyro which had shown themselves
susceptible Of great abnormal devel
opment IN Rou1's experiments.
After many thousands of expert
ments Dawson Turner succeeded In
obtaining combination that greatly
stimulated the body growth Of the
frog. This process also appears to
be one that may be continued inded-
nitely.
Each cell Of the embryo has the In
telligence to enable it to develop into
normal part of the adult organism
But when certain cells are activated
by radium they acquire a different
character and assume a dominant
force like a man inspired by some
extraordinary ambition.
In theory 1t appears possible that
this discovery may be applied to
man. There would, of course, be
little advantage to be gained from
producing an enormous man, who
would help to gobble up the avail
able food supply. The desirable OBJ
iect would be to breed a man Of in
creased brain power.
The stimulation Of the body cells
Of the frog would be replaced by a
stimulation of the brain cells Of the
man.
Perhaps the discovery that
healthy animal can be bred with two
heads on one body may eventually
prove applicable to man. There Is
an old saying that two heads are
better than one, and this ought to
be all the more true II we could
combine the two heads compactly
with one body!
What might we not expect IL We
could breed man with two heads,
one containing the brain Of a Shake
speare and the other Of an Abraham
Lincoln!

portant results for humanity. Per
haps its first, or at least the most
obvious, value Is that 1t Will furnish
US with a means OF increasing the
food supply and thereby keeping
down the ever-increasing cost OF
living.

 CONCERT BRINGS
 LARGE AUDIENCE

One of the most enjoyable concerts of the year was that in the ball room of the Strathe1d, last night, when a distinguished assemblage heard Ear nestine Coburn Beyer in a number of selections which showed the wide range of her talent, the pleasing qual- ity of her personality and the culti- vated beauty of her voice.
 The most interesting features of the evening, however, were two readings by Rev. p. J. Craft, rector of Christ church, and among the most eloquent cIergymen of New England.
 The general opinion of those who heard MT. Craft was that when he en- tered the pulpit the world lost a great actor.
 There are few men upon the stage or in the pulpit, who have a richer speaking voice than Mir Craft, or who use it with finer tona1 effects, more dramatic power, or more temperance

Emergency Hospital Cases.

 Suffering from a Collis fracture of the left wrist as a result, he said, of being pushed to the pavement at East Main and Jane streets, 13-years- old Charles Fadus of 599 Berkshire ave- nue was a caller last night. The frac- ture was reduced and he was advised to go to a hospital for an x-ray photo graph.
 Eleven years old William Vansise of Sl1 Broad street gave the ambu- lance corps a run at 9:O5 o'clock last night to Gilbert and Broad streets, where he was found suffering from a lacerated right hip that required 14 stitches to close. He said that he ran against a projecting piece of iron but the authorities believe that he was walking on a picket fence and fell.
 About an inch of the tip of a ypo- derm1c needle, that had broken off in his arm about two months ago, was removed from the elbow of John Wright of 37 Bank street by pr. John J. Macdonald, last night. Not only had it travelled about six inches but had reversed it's position.

 Why is New York afflicted by a theatre ticket ring that exacts tribute like the robber barons of old?
 The amazing muddIe at the Metro
 politan Opera House has again most forcibIy directed attention to a mat
 ter of theatergoers. Why is it that in this greatest theater center in the country, or the world, the p1aygoer must pay a premium of from 50 cents
 up for the privilege of buying theatre tickets in hotels and other places ex- cept the box offices, where they should be sold, while a few privileged persons grow wealthy at the business? Why the box office at all, when the best seat that one can get there (for | a. successful play) is about the six
 teenth row, even if ne were to ask now for St. Patrick's Day?
 The speculator, whether he be of the hotel kind or the aniab1e pirate
 who has store next door to the theatre, probably has driven more
 persons away from the legitimate theatre than has the motion picture 1 machine or any other one cause. The sooner the managers decide to keep their tickets in the box offices, where they belong, and say First come first served,'' the better.
