InfantiIe ParaIy.i. Germ.

In lengthy report to physicians
the Rockefeller institute announces
the discovery Of germ in the brain
and spinal cord Of monkeys inoculated
with infantile paralysis. The organ
ism is said to be very minute, the
difficulties attending Its artificial cul-
tivation and Identification being 30
great that the discovery Is as yet Of
little value for the purpose of early
diagnosis Of suspected cases. Mon
keys inoculated with the micro-organ-
ism, developed disease correspond
ing to infantile paralysis in human be-
ings. From these experiments 1t was
determined that the mucous mem
branes of the nose and throat of per.
sons not sick with the disease may
become contaminated with the virus
and that without falling Ill themselves
they may become carriers of the dis
ease. 1t was found In monkeys that
the virus could be discovered six
months after incubation, and that dry
ing and mixing with dust did not de-
stroy 1t.

EATING PAPER is NOT HARD
How Fanny Murray outdid Feat Of
Won Der Goltz, the Ger
man Spy.

It Is with a mitigated commiseration
that one reads the story of how Won
red Goltz, the German spy. finding him
self recognized in Petrograd, spent
some hours eating two parcels Of In
eliminating papers which he dare not
burn In the grate."
As feat Of mastication. says the
London Observer, Won der Goltz by no
means holds the record. Paper is cas-
lily reduced to pulp and swallowed
(the ink acting as an appetizer), and
the only difficulty in this case was the
quantity. Leather is another matter,
but apart from meals of hard-pressed
explorers there are authenticated in
stances Of meals Of the kind.
What may be described as paper
meal de luxe was that of the famous
