Cancers That Cure Themselves.

In the annual report OF Doctor Bash
ford OF the Imperial Cancer Research
fund an announcement OF great i'm
portance Is made. II is to the effect
that transplanted tumors fall into two
categories. a very small group that
grow progressively because they do
not produce resistance TO their own
growth, and large group that tend to
disappear spontaneously because they
induce in the body a powerful resist.
ance to their growth.
While this remark Is applied only to
tumors artihcially produced in animals
for experimental purposes, Il may be
that some at least OF the apparently
extraordinary cures OF cancer in hu-
man beings have been due TO this
power OF the body to resist the growth
OF the cancer. II further experiments
shall result in the discovery OF the
method by which certain resistant
bodies throw of the cancerous growth.
II will be long step toward finding a
way OF comforting this power upon
those who do not possess II.

Noted Austrian Wit.

Sarah Bernhardt is raging at the
Germans, but never again will she be
as infuriated as she was once upon a
time, many years ago. when she Wis
tied Vienna. says the Philadelphia
Evening Ledger. At that time the
Austrian capital boasted OF a wit
named Saphlr. who edited a weekly
and wrote all its contents. Then Nine.
Sarah was as thin as the proverbial
rail fence. The day she arrived
Saphir's paper contained the an.
nouncement:
AN empty carriage drew up to the
hotel entrance and out stepped Nine.
Bernhard"
The actress threatened all sorts OF
dire things. but the worst was yet to
come, for when she announced that
she was learning to play the flute
Saphir came back with:
Mime. Bernhard is learning to play
the flute. In order to distinguish the
instrument, she has decorated II with
a blue bow"
But 1t was as an impromptu wit
that Saphir shone. Once when he
turned a street corner he bumped into
q stranger.
Donkey" Numbered the stranger.
And my name is Saphir." replied
the wit, politely bowling.

Literature Of Poverty.

In this age Of print, the literature Of
poverty has swollen to an enormous
bulk. Statistical books, explicit and
contradictory. Hopeful books by So
cial workers who see salvation in
girls clubs and refined dancing. Hope
less books by other social workers
who believe-or at least, who say
that the employed are enslaved by the
employer, and that women and chill
dren are the prey of men. Highly col
ored books by adventurous young jour-
nalists who have masqueraded (for
copy's sake) as mill and factory hands.
Gray books by casual observers who
are paralyzed by the mere sight of
slum. Furious books by rabid social
lists who hold that the poor will never
be uplifted while there is left in the
world man rich enough to pay them
wages. Imaginative books by poets
and novelists who deal in realism to
the exclusion Of reality. All this pro-
fusion of matter is thrust upon us
month after month, while the work
ing-man reads his newspaper, and the
working-girl reads "a Coronet OF
Shame. or Lost in Fate's Fearful
Abyss."-Agnes Repplier, in Atlantic.

How They Bathe In Vienna.

Previous to the outbreak of the war
Vienna was building a municipal bath
which will be the largest in the world,
being 800 feet long by 1877 feet wide.
Yet 1t is only quite recently that
Vienna has abandoned what was the
most primitive and curious bathing
custom. Instead Of going to your
bath, the bath was brought to you by
agreement with one Of the purveyors
Of private baths.
Their huge wagons with tanks of
hot and cold water and heavy wooden
tubs used to be familiar sight in the
streets of the Austrian capital down
to little more than a decade ago.
They went the round Of their Gus.
toners, delivering baths and hot wa.
ter at private residences and calling
for them again after the ablutions had
been performed.

YEARS DIGGING OF COAL
Greater Than Total Excavation for
Panama Canal.

II has been estimated that the
amount OF coal which will be dug out
Of the ground In the United States
during the present year will be great
er by far than the total excavation for
the Panama Canal.
Experts for the United States geo
logical survey have estimated that
originally there was enough coal In
this country TO make solid block 10
miles long, 10 miles wide and 10 miles
high. A block OF this size would
weigh more than $500, ,000, 900 900 tons,
and up to the present time the coal
that has been removed amounts only
to something like $1,000, 100000 tons.
The coal mined during 1914 will
amount to about 600, 100000 tons, con.
tanning about 300,000,000 cubic yards.
The total excavation for the Panama
Canal from start TO finish is computed
at some 262,000009 cubic yards.
The comparison indicates in n strik.
ing way the extent OF the coal mining
industry in the United States. The
output OF coal is enormous, but Il Is
increasing year by year. The amount
OF coal so far taken out is only frac-
ton OF what remains, according to the
estimates OF the geologists. The peo.
pie OF this country. however, are us.
ing more coal every year. and with
the exhaustion OF some OF the Euro
pean coal fields already In sight, the
foreign demand for American coal
will Increase enormously.
The history OF coal mining In the
United States covers only a period OF
about century. There was some
mining OF anthracite In Pennsylvania
as far back as 1890. but the records OF
the anthracite coal trade usually be-
gin with the year 1920. The first nc.
.tual mining is believed to have been
In Virginia, though the records OF pro
duction In that state date from 1922.
The presence Of coal In Ohio was dis.
covered as far back as 1855, but the
record OF output begins with 1897. The
history OF conl mining In Kentucky
begins In 1927. but In 1S40 the produc.
ton had reached only 23,527 tons.
Kentucky's coal industry suffered
greatly during the Civil War. In 1860
the production had reached 1885,
tons. but In 1864 Il was under 1000
tons. and in 1870 II was only 150,5s2
tons. Since that time progress has
been continuous until last year max
imum output OF about 20,000,00 tons
was reached.-Loulsville Courier.Jour.
nal.

A RoYal Quarrel.

England has never been at war with
Prussia before. but she came near II
In 1929, when some Prussian soldiers,
travelling through Hanover, were de-
tained by the kings order. Frederick
William l and George II had long
hated one another. on personal
grounds. so the former seized upon
this incident as pretext for challeng.
Ing his royal cousin to fight duel.
Matters went 80 far that each king
named his seconds, but, owing to the
exertions OF the diplomats, a meeting
was averted. Thereupon Frederick
William modified $4,000 troops on the
Hanoverian frontier, and George also
made show OF warllke preparations.
Eventually a settlement was reached
by exchanging the Prusslans George
had detained for some Hanoverians
impressed by Frederick William for
his army. and the troops massed for
combat were disbanded-Pall Mall Ga.

WENT BACK FOR KNIFE
FRENCH SOLDIER RlskED LIFE
FOR VALUED MEMENTo.
Incident Of the War Of 1870 Recalled,
When Bravery Amounting to Fool
hardness Was Exhibited to
Little Purpose.

Great bravery Is rarer on a retreat
than on charge, for obvious reasons;
the excitement and thrill of attack is
then lacking, and the necessity of
haste in order to get away is often
real. This fact makes interesting an
incident related concerning a soldier
In the army of the Rhine in the war
of 1870.
A battery Of mitrailleuses had made
a stand against the advancing Ger
mans near Metz 1t was on the 18th of
August, in the brave fight made by the
division Of General Picard. The fire
of the enemy was terrible, and seemed
to be sweeping away the whole French
division.
In the midst of the final firing of the
French, prior to their inevitable re-
treat, one of the mitrailleuses ceased
to work on account Of the sticking of
a shell in the barrel. A. lieutenant
looked about for something with which
to remove the shell, and a soldier Of
fered him his pocketknife. The lieu
tenant had just removed the shell
when the order came to fall back. In
the confusion the officer dropped the
soldiers knife on the ground. When
they had withdrawn little distance
the soldier came up to the lieutenant
and said, saluting:
"Will you please let me have my
knife?"

SOLDIERS BAPTISM OF FIRE
Average Mans Most Terrifying Po-
sitlon oh Field Of Battle 10
When Still.

EveryeHe of us must have wondered
how he would feel in battle for the
first time. We may get some idea of
how the average man feels in such cir
cumstances from study of the psy-
chology Of battle, just published in
Italy, says London Tit-Bits. Lieuten-
ant. Colonel Mangiarotti of the Seven
ty-seventh infantry carefully examined
more than two thousand soldiers who
first faced fire in the recent war be-
tween Italy and Turkey, and he sum-
marizes their statements in the Ri
vista Militare. He questioned them
one by one.
Out Of 1000 men 100 confessed
that their most trying moment in the
whole campaign was when they first
heard hostile bullets whistle about
their ears. But almost all of them said
they were much less frightened than
they had expected to be, and that the
scare diminished with each battle.
The average soldier finds the most
terrifying position to be that Of stand.
ing motionless in the front rank, ex-
posed to the enemy's fire without be-
Ing able to reply. The order to ad-
vance or to charge with fixed bayonets
Is then received as a release from
agony. Movement, even into greater
peril, distracts the mind and greatly
reduces the mental anguish.
Soldiers are seriously affected by
the trembling of their superiors. An
officer who shakes in his shoes is a
coward in the eyes of the rank and
file, although the men know that many
military heroes-Henri w, Turenne
and Frederick the Great, for instance
-trembled on going into fight.
Colonel Mangiarotti says that Off
GERS must understand this feeling. This
is especially true of lieutenants, fol
this inquiry reveals the fact that in
battle all officers from captains up
ward are nonexistent so far as the
common soldiers are concerned. They
keep their eyes on their lieutenants
exclusively. This was brought ou
when Colonel Mangiarotti asked the
men what sentiment animated then
when the bullets were falling al
around them-was It love of country
religion or their oath of fidelity t
their king? II went ahead" they re
Piled, almost unanimously, "becaus,
my lieutenant went ahead"
1t seems that once battle is on ant
the first feeling of terror has vanished
soldiers feel as II set free, The feve
Of combat takes possession of then
