POIsONs TRICK PHYSICIANS.

In the American Magazine IS an un- usually interesting article by a fam ous surgeon who has made study of the action of poisons and who comments on the faulty diagnoses of poison cases that are frequently
 made by physicians. "One day." he said, "a patient died on the operating table. The tentative diagnosis had been intestinal ob- struction, but a wholly different path ological condition was revealed. Un- doubtedly the man might have been saved. He had been suffering from lead poisoning, chemical eXamIna- tion revealing acetate of lead ln con- siderable quantities, which had been administered with homicidal intent
 "One morning I answered my bell in person and found a man standing there who was suffering great ab-
 dominal pain. He told me he had
 been to see two other doctors, both
 of whom gave the opinion that he
 might have cancer. AS soon as took him in and examined him sus- pected lead poisoning. Other physi- clans apparently hadn't been familiar with all the symtamatology of this
 kind of poisoning. Later l confirmed this diagnosis and cured the patient.
 "On another occasion a 1O-year-old
 girl was brought to me in serious
 condition from some ailment that sev-
 eral doctors had failed to diagnose 1 correctly. One of them had attrlbut-
 ed her disorder to ptomaine from can- l ned food It took me only little
 time to cit out the canned food the
 ory and to pin the trouble to over
 dosing with calomel. My poison rs-
 searches had led me into some inter
 esting studies of calomel, its legltl- mate use, and it's horrible posslolll-
 ties. In fact, under certain condl- tions-as on exposure to sunlight
 ;ts corrosive sublimate characteristics are deadly. "The mother of this child was away from home, and the nurse finally ad- ? mitted that she had been giving the } child repeated doses of calomel.
 ) 'T was called into consultation one f day by doctor who had case or g diphtheria, as he supposed l recog- nized mercurial poisoning
 'I have known cases where cnii- : dren have been sacrificed to various n noisons unnecessarily, as in one case where a small boy ate the seeds ol e the iimson weed and died from stra a monius poisoning. His allment was y attributed to something else until 'he e post mortem.'

To Keep Skin ill Fine

If would be much better for the skin if little cream, powder or rouge were used during the heated term. Mixed with per spiraton, dust and grime, these things are anything but hcautifying.

BOYS' BABY BEEF CLUBS.

Changes in the beef industry have resulted in the organization in vari- ous states of boys baby beef clubs. A number of state agricultural col leges are now arranging, in co-opera- tion with the department, baby beef shows and contests to be held in the fall. This movement originated in Texas. where it has proved so suc- cessful that the Texas Baby Beef club now has membership of more than 1,2OG
 This pioneer club Was organized to encourage the fattenlng of more cat tie in Texas. For many years Texas had raised feeder cattle. but instead of fattening them on homegrown milo, kafir and feterita. the farmers of the state had sent them to feed lots of the corn belt. This, it was felt, was a mistake. By the efficient use of economical feed to produce rapid gains in weight and by pushing high-grade calves without loss of milk fat into highly finished. mature ly formed yearlngs, known as baby beeves, it was believed that profitable returns could be secured to Texas cattle feeders.
 In order to popularize the produc- ton of baby beef, therefore, promi- nent breeder in Coleman county started a baby beef contest among the farm boys. The boys purchased their calves by giving notes payable when the calves were marketed as baby beef The idea proved success full from the first. and the annua boys encampment and baby beef con test, held at Fort Worth under tht auspices of the National Feeders aht Breeders show, has increased eacl year in attendance and exhibits Las March 300 boy feeders of pigs ant baby beeves gathered to receive Tn struction and to show their stock Over 100 well-finished baby beeve of excellent type were exhibited.
 In number of the classes the boy competed with their calves agalns older and more experienced feeders Twenty ribbons were won in thes classes by club members. Thre brothers from Clay county won tW tirsts and two seconds, and one :: these brothers also obtained tn grand championship in the compet ton among club members only.
 According to the custom at Ia stock shows, the cattle were sold the open market. The boys stoc brought a, price averaging above U top of the regular market. the extl price being justified by the quall of the carcasses. On the hoot u cattle weighed about So0 pounds p head, and the dressing percental WaG 60.8
