Million-Dollar Idea.

November -, 1907. there appeared in
the San Francisco Chronicle a cartoon
comic strip portraying racctrack ad-
ventures of one "A. Mutt" Thus was
born million-doiiar idea. Fisher had
been going to the races regularly and
had spent interested hours in watching
men tear around to lay down bets.
Racing was at its heyday in San Fran
cisco just then. and Fisher figured that
if he could pick out composite type of
man and run his racing experiences in
a daily comic strip he would make a
hit. He did. The idea caught on like
wildfire, and December 10 of the same
year the Examiner people made a
mighty attractive offer to the kid whom
they had turned away in 1905. Fisher
accepted the offer.
Soon after he entered upon his new
job, "A. Mutt was Joined by little
Jeff" who was destined to be his com
panion through countless comic adven-
lures. Il always liked Mutt better. for
he was my first friend said Fisher
when asked which of his two charac-
tiers he preferred, but as some of NV
readers have a weakness for little left
! let him get the better of it some
times"

answer should be found as to how the
dietary conditions of the population
of the south changed previously to the
great increase in pellagra. We believe
this problem is quite complex. inae
much as several factors must be taken
into consideration. These are: Changes
in the economic conditions of the popu-
lation; changes in food production and
food supply; changes in the method of
cooking food"
The bulletin was prepared by Carl
Voegtlin, professor of pharmacology;
NJ y. Sullivan, biochemist, and c. NJ.
Myers. technical assistant of the pub
lie health service The conclusions are
the result of extended investigation
and laboratory analysis.

ARTILLERY STILL HAMMER|NC
 AT THE GATES or VERDUN
Republican A. p. Leased WlreJ

The German armies at the gates of Verdun are hammering them hard with heavy artillery but at latest accounts had suspended infantry attacks. In the last fighting reported the initiative was on the side of the French, who des perately drove back at the Germans in a counter attack that gained them ground. The German thrusts in the new phase of the titantic struggle are being delivered with heaviest force at present on the salient to the northeast of the fortress in which lies the Douau mont plain. Here the French last week were driven out of Fort Douaumont and just now from Douaumont village, to the west.
 In and around the village the battle has been raging with violence and with heavy losses on both sides. Unofficial accounts assert that there has been nothing on the western front to equal the ferocity of the attacks delivered by the Germans, while the French infan- try is declared to be Ndisputing every inch and in their latest effort to have forced the Germans to rest on the laurels so far won and leave the con tinuatiOn of the battle to their artillery.
 Paris advices show that no doubt re- mains in the minds of the French that there is nothing in the nature of feint in the German effort, the belief exist ing that the crown prince has determ- ined to capture Verdun, and if possi- ble break through the French line and open up the way to Paris.
 
 There has been some fighting furth- CT south on the line in the west. the Germans reporting the repulse of d French attack in Lorraine, in which the French had some initial success, but were forced to relinquish the ground taken. Elsewhere there has been com paratively quiet, while from none of the other European war fronts is events of moment reported.
 The Russian occupation of Bitlis, in Turkish Armenia is regarded in Petro- grad as development of first rate i'm portance opening further the way to Bagdad for the Russian armies. That goal is a long distance away yet from the Russians headed southward toward MesOpotamia, but the military observ- CTS already have mapped out the prob able routes for Grand Duke Nicholas armies, in the 400 miles stretch to a junction with the British on the Tigris.
 In addition and of more immediate interest is the bringing out of the point that the Turks now will be greatly hampered in bringing up reinforce ments for their army that met defeat at Erzerum, and is Tetreat;lg westward while the southward thrust by the Rus sians has driven a wedge between the Turkish forces around lake Van in Ar menia and those operating to the east in Persia.
 On the naval side of the conflict the German admiralty has reported tho sinking of two French auxiliary cruisers and British patrol boat, while iron the Mediterranean comes the report ol the sinking of the Italian steamer Gia- va 2600 ton boat by an Austrian sub marine. Unofficial denial of the Ger man claim to the sinking of two French warships is madt: in Paris.

It was decided that not before Tuesday would a vote be taken and a wearing day of conferences and maneuvering left more doubt than ever as to just what form the house action, when the time finally came, would take.
 Supporters of the president in his stand for the right of Americans to safety aboard merchantmen bearing arms reiterated tonight that there was no uncertainty that the house sooner or later would follow the lead of tke senate in killing the warning proposals. Some representatives pro- fess to see in the arrival in the capi- tol of William Jennings Bryan, who
