Investigating New Serum.

Scientists in the Johns Hopkins uni

will eventually be able to restore a
person to life after a~sphyxiation or

upon animals in a number of instances
restored them to life after they had
been to all appearances dead for sew
eral hours. A few days ago an ami
NAL was brought back to life four
hours after its apparent death by the
injection of this serum. In this case,
however, the animal died shortly after

HERE'S A USEFUL ARTICLE
Dressing Case That ls Acceptable
Gift for Mar Who Travels
Much.

Our sketch shows a useful. little mr.
ticle that would form a very accept
able gift to make for a man who has
much travelling to do.
The size of the case to a certain
extent will depend upon the size of
the articles II has to contain. For the
exterior of 1t macintosh is used. and
for this purpose, as not a very large
piece will be required, plenty of good
material may be CLEANED from an old
macintosh that has become too
shabby to wear. The macintosh is
lined with strong linen and bound at
the edges with narrow ribbon, but
prior to doing this the pockets must
be sewn in place.
They, too, are made of strong linen
and bound at the edges with narrow
ribbon, and the pockets for the brush
and soap must be made full enough
to enable those articles to be easily
slipped into them.
The case is rolled up loosely from
the bottom, and tapes are sewn on at
