When an animal presents an abnor-
NAL condition of health there must
exist cause, but too often the ener-
gies of the keeper are bent so much
on finding a cure that the disturbing
cause is entirely neglected.
For scours in pigs there must be a
cause. Scours being merely a symp-
tom. The condition exists inside the
digestive tRct. 1t is doubtless a con-
dition of qualification resulting in the
generation of poisons destructive to
the food before it can be assimilated.
To find a cure potent enough to kill
and expel the germs of qualification
from the digestive tract, and still not
injure the animal, is necessary, but by
all means the keeper should endeavor
to discover what caused the presence
of the germs in the first place.
Everyone has heard of cases of pto-
maine poisoning and doubtless all
have experienced cases of sour stom-
ach; between these extremes there
are many types of fermentation that
may infest the digestive tract.
Ptomaine poisoning implies and
demonstrates a heterogeneous article
upon which to work What is called
sour stomach is simply common fe
meptation of the sugar.
1t is well recognized among ply,
clans and chemists that when orgar.t
heterogeneous compounds break up the
simpler compounds are much more
noxious as a rule than those given of
by the disintegration of a carbohy.

From what has been said 1t may be

ONE IDEA OF PHILANTHROPY
Carmen sylvia Says II She Had a
Million She Would Build Vast
Cathedral.

What curious ideas some people
have on the subject of philanthropy.
Carmen Sylvia, queen of Roumania, is
the latest to answer that ancient
question, What would you do IL you
were a millionaire" She would build
vast cathedral with chapels in It
for every religion. and she would also
build an art school. AS 1t is only a
very small minority Of people who
ever go to church or chapel, and those
that do go are usually Of the more
comfortable classes, 1t is to be feared
that Carmen Sylva's million would not
go very far to lessen human misery.
Most people have asked themselves
what they would do II they were mil
lionaires, but the wiser among them
have contented themselves with say
ing what they would not do. A reso-
luton to give nothing to any religious
or charitable organizations. with a
very few exceptions is a fairly safe

Fran tells Gregory she wants a home
with him. Grace Noir. Gregory's private
secretary. takes violent dislike to Fran
and advises her TO go away at once.
Fran hints at a twenty-year-old secret
and Gregory in agitation asks Grace to
leave the room. Fran relates the story
Of how Gregory married young girl at
Springfield while attending college and
then deserted her. Fran is the child OF
that marriage. Gregory had married his
present wife three years before the death
OF Fran's mother. Fran takes a liking TO
Mrs. Gregory. Gregory explains that
Fran is the daughter of a very dear friend
who Is dead. Fran agrees to the story.
Mrs. Gergory insists on her making her
home with them and takes her TO her
arms.

Lace Designs From Spider Webs.

Missionaries in Paraguay more than
200 years ago taught the native In
dams to make lace by hand. Since
that day the art has greatly develop
ed, and in certain of the towns lace
making is the chief occupation. Al
most all the women, many children.
and not few men are engaged in this
industry.
A curious fact with reference to
the Paraguayan laces is that the de-
signs were borrowed from the strange
webs woven by the semi-tropieal spi-
ders that abound in that country. Ac-
cordingly this lace is by the natives
called nandui, which means spider
web. Weekly.
