SOLVES DISEASE MYSTERY.
British Officer Finds Cause Of 1000 Year
Scourge.


acknowledgements Colonel Leiper
of the London School of Tropical Med
icine has just returned from Egypt,
where he had been investigating bill
harziosis, and has communicated an i'm
portant discovery respecting this dis
ease to the Royal Society Of Medicine.
The disease. which has been a
scourge to the Nile delta for thousands
OF years. has been discovered to have
been the cause Of death in mummies
dating back to 1000 3. G.
In his report Colonel Leiper cited a
village where 90 per cent of the chill
dren are infected. 1t has long been
known that the disease was transmit
ted by water, but the life and history
Of the parasite have remained unes-
tablished.
1t has been discovered that the dis
ease is started in a worm which lives
in the human body. The eggs Of this
worm pass from the body into canals
and pools, where they enter molluss
and there undergo certain evolutions.
They emerge from the molluss in a
form enabling them to enter the hui
man body through the skin. In this
way the disease is commonly contract
ed while bathing and washing.
Colonel Leiper contends that the dis.
ease can be exterminated by filling the
pools during the dry season.

Europe Lose. Sweet Tooth.

The girls they left behind them,
the British Tommy, his French col
league and his German enemy went
off to the war, suffered a good deal
more than has been supposed up to
this time.
The candy export figures from this
country prove it. Europe curtailed the
bean supply of the United States when
Austria's exports were stopped. Now
America has retaliated by reducing
the quantity of candy sent to the old
world.
The first five months of the war
caused a decrease of S153,S23 in the
value of candy exports from the
United States, as compared with the
same period of the year before. The
value of the total exports of candy
for the calander year was s1,1S5.S94.

REALLY NOT A FAIR BET
Young Man Made Wager Which II
Was Almost impossible for
Him to Lose.

There was no sound except the faint
and regular tick of watch. Other
wise silence and gloom pervaded the
elegantly furnished drawing-room.
In one chair sat a beautiful girl,
her lips tightly closed. her eyes star
ing straight before her and her every
muscle tense with a powerful effort
of self-control. In another sat
young man whose face expressed Sc
riousness but confidence. In his hand
he held an open watch which he OBJ
served closely. only raising his eyes
now and then to glance at the beauti-
full girl, who seemed to be in such
agony.
Five seconds. ten. fifteen, twenty
seconds passed The position OF
neither the young man nor beautiful
girl had changed.
Suddenly her eyes cleaned with
wild light: she clasped her hands con-
vulsively, and
Il must speak," burst from her
bloodless lips.
"Twenty-four seconds" said the
young man, as he closed the watch
and put it back into his pocket. You
lose the pair of gloves by exactly six
seconds"
He had bet on sure thing.

we go on letting the men represent us?

inquired sternly. For a few minutes
the little blonde sat very silent. Then
she spoke. Why, ] never thought of
that before. If you have a misrepre-
sentative man in the family, l suppose
you do need the vote" Her voice sank
in whisper. But please don't say l
