Yet the United States government is

Snake Venom Cures Epilepsy
Texas Reptiles Furnish Sequence Years of Experiment for
Relief of Dread Malady

Following closely upon the announce
neDt Of the discovery OF cure for
tuberculosis comes the information that
the venom of the rattlesnalse has a
destiny to fulfill as cure for epilepsy.
The discovery Of this use for deadly
poison is credited to DR.. Ralph II.
Spangler, whose experiments seem to
have proven the benefit Of the venom
In these cases. The story VI this dis
covery is told by A. Sc. george Joyce
III the Technical World Magazine, and
presents an interesting phase Of the ef
forts Of science To combat this dread
disease.

dueed. One instance il told Of an

character clause in the bill, which was
eventually stricken out. The clause
provided for the presentation at the
port of entry of character certificate
from the home government. But this
provision would have worked to de-
prive us of the more desirable immi-
grants, for in Russia, for instance,
every Jew is considered undesirable, al
though many of them are worthy of
the best this country affords. Russia
could, by an exercise of the character
certificate power, withhold those who
would make good citizens and issue
certificates of character to those whom
nevertheless, a fallacy in our system of
handling immigrants in that we have
prevention of the assembling of for
thority given for restraining undesir-
ables at the port of embarkation.
The bill further provides for inter
nal immigration offices with view to
a distribution of immigration to the
farming districts of the country and a
no power of elimination except at the
port of entry. There is very little au-
eigners in the large centers of popula-
ton in the Atlantic regions. The
opening up of the Panama canal will
go long way toward settling the dis
tribution question, for at present the
Pacific coast gets only the Chinese,
Japanese and Hindus.
Medical men in Europe are watching
with professional curiosity this flood
of low-class humanity from the densely
populated and disease-laden sections of
Europe. They freely predict that the
effect will very soon show itself in the
American people in the form of a
plague that will rouse US into action.
The United States government is be-
ginning to wake up to the same fear,
and the immigration laws are due for
radical changes in the very near future.

Regularly and had suffered only three
minor attacks in several months. II
is stated that In every case treated
there has resulted not only decrease
or complete disappearance of the at.
tacks but building up Of mind and

The discovery Of the effectiveness Of
this venom came about through acct.

with the substance In the treatment OF
other diseases when he heard Of an al.
legged cure Of Texas epileptic after a
rattlesnake bite. The experiments be-
gan and he noticed an appreciable eff

attacks decreasing almost at once. The
venom IL secured from Texas rattlers
mt considerable danger TO the collector.
The snakes are usually selected when
torpid from heavy feeding, and a
leather lasso Is thrown about the neck.
While one man holds the thong another
prizes the mouth open with spoon or
small cup and the pressure Of tho fangs
In the edge Of the cup forces tho venom
from the sacs.
Scarcely less important from scien.
tific standpoint is the discovery by M.
Dissand Of "cold light, which very
nearly approaches the long desired
light that the name implies. Science
has as yet been unable to produce
strong light directly from mechanical
power without employing heat, and the
discovery Of the new light is step to-
ward that most important end. M.
Dssaud applies electrical energy di
rectly to a single point and diffuses
the light thus concentrated by means
Of lens. II Ii said an ordinary water
faucet win supply sufficient power tC

purposes win be served by the new
flight. Electricity will be brought
within the reach Of many who cannot
now afford TO use it for lighting pur-
poses, for the simple use Of water from
q lancet furnishes the minimum of
cheap power. In its replacing Of the
kerosene lamp in the rural districts il
will be q boon to the farmer both from
the standpoint Of cleanliness and
greater convenience. Furthermore, the

assassin in his prison cell IN 1883.
Prior 10 this date, when tho powers

constitution was revived and interven.

happened, the constitution proving nm
effective remedy for abuses time after

always brief. Talk Of the partition Of
Turkey frequently was rife. But the
powers found in Abdul. Hamid clever
