In pneumonia OF in snake bite, when
recovery takes place, an invasion Of
the parts affected by a large number
of leucOcytes or white blood corpus
cles is invariably observed. Delcarde
insists that this invasion is essential
to recovery. Massert and Bordel dem
onstrated that alcohol, even in very
dilute solution, drives away the white
corpuscles or leucoytes, and If alec
hol is circulated in the blood, even
in very minute quantities, the ieuco-
cytes cannot push their way into the
blood at all readily, and therefore
cannot be transported to the seat Of
the disease Alcohol thus prevents
the white cells or %leucocytes FROM
coming up to attack and repel the in
vading organisms. The leu
cocytes act as a kind Of sanitary po-
lice. They appear wherever dead mat
ter is to be removed, they attempt to
prevent the invasion of the body by
disease producing organisms, and
once they come to grips with their
opponents they die rather than give
way. Disease producing or
ganisms getting into the tissues dur
ing the time that alcohol is holding
back the l%eucocytes, and meeting with
no resistance from them, entrench
themselves strongly, so that the leu
cocytes cannot drive them out, and a
severe, often fatal, attack of disease
is the result.-Dr. Sims Woodhead.

many hundred years ago. Like the

My land was the west land, my

never think of my land but it
makes my heart to thrill;

But old desire is in my feet and
dreams are in my eyes.
Ny home crowned the highland,
it had stately grace:
! never think Of my land but l
see my mothers face.
never smell the west wind that
blows the silver ships
But old delight Is in my heart
and youth is on my lips.
My land was high land; my

But l am at my mothers knee

Of Vancouver, b. c. Nelson and II
friend. Frank X. Thacker of st. Johns.
N. f.. who believed himself familiar
enough with Newfoundland to venture
into the wilds without a guide, went
there in the dead Of winter to hunt
moose. They supposed they were well
enough equipped for all emergencies
but they did not count on Thacker
tumbling down Il mountain side and
breaking his leg when their ammun
ZION and food supply were exhausted
The plans of the hunters were upset
by the accident to Thacker. They
were then far from any settlement
but they recalled a mountain cave that
they had passed. and Nelson put his
friend on his back and carried him
frequently resting, for half day
After their arrival mt the cave Nelson
made splints and put the broken bones
In place.
