the guileless victim Of villain and all
his sense Of manhood was stirred with
in him.
His life held little Of hope or COM
fort, for he was an invalid and had
been for years. Money and social
emlnence at his command, existence
had become vapid, profitless, well-nigh
uncomfortable. He was no physical
match for the burly scoundrel who
was about to elope with the daughter
of q humble resident of Rockton, yet
Evans was resolved to thwart him.
He hurried from the restaurant.
1t was quite dusk, and 1t was With
In half an hour that willard had ar
ranged to meet Lilias Deane at GER
tain spot at the edge of the town.
Evans proceeded In it's direction. He
consulted his watch and calculated
that he would reach the place In ad-
vance of willard. He was none too
strong, however, and his gait became
tagging and slow under the strain OF
the unusual exercise. Half an hour
later he entered little grove. Look
ing back he saw willard few hun
dred yards behind him. Looking
ahead he made out the girl Lilias, a
satchel In her hand, shrinking to the
shelter of great tree.
He lifted his hat as he neared her
and she bowed in return in flutter-
Ing, embarrassed way. He halted.
The movement was unexpected on the
part of the girl. Casually several
times in the past he had thus recog-
nized her, but they had never spoken.
He spoke now.
"Miss Deane," he said hurriedly,
with a glance back to assure himself
Of the distance away Of willard, "will
you kindly walk on with me? I have
something Of great Importance to say
to you."
I--I-yes, certainly" she stammered,
but her gait was reluctant as she kept
pace with him.
She had always considered Evans
far above her humble family in the
way of wealth and social position. AS
a friendly neighbOr, as a hopeless in
valid, as she had heard, she could not
very well decline his suggestion, al
though her mind was entirely with the
man who must soon overtake them
"You must trust and believe me-"
went on Evans, gravely and insistent-
ly. "By chance, but beyond doubt,
l have learned that the person for
whom you are about to abandon home
and friends Is scoundrel."
She came to dead standstill her
face white, resentful and unbelieving.
"There is no time to discuss this"
proceeded Evans rapidly. "You have
been grossly deceived, as l can prove
to you. You must not meet this man.
Go home, and l will later convince
you of the truth Of what l say"
His earnestness held her, his SUI
perlor willpower drove back pervers-
ity. She swayed as If about to faint.

Good Year for Doctors,

'"This is certainly great year for
DOCTORS" remarked an inferno, accord
Ing to New York correspondent.
"Only few years ago there were SO
many NJ. DIS with their shingle out
here that some of them had to take up
other business, to keep the wolf from
the door, But now there Is dearth
Of these professional men. In fact,
they are so scarce that almost every
day editorials or advertisements are
printed calling for 10000 doctors for
the French army or 10000 doctors
wanted on the British battle 'front.'
The figures are growing all the time,
and very soon it is likely, unless Rus
sia RECEIVERS quickly from her political
and social delirium tremens,' we shall
receive a demand for 10000 alienists
for the Russian revolution. 1t Is a
great pity governments don't really ap-
preciate what Doctors life Is worth
over there"

Helmets Save Soldiers Lives.

A British medical correspondent
commenting upon some recent French
statistics, says: "Out of 30 cases Of
head injury it was found, for exam
pie, that AZ occurred In soldiers who
wore no helmets. Among the AZ there
were % fractured skulls. The remain
ing 10 cases suffered from severe scalp
wounds. Among the 13 cases which
wore helmets there was not single
fracture Of the skull; eight showed
some concussion effects, and five had
slight wounds. A considerable num-
Der Of the unprotected cases died;
none Of the protected died. The most
significant fact which has emerged
since the helmet was introduced was
emphasized by Doctor Roussy at the
Academy of Medicine last year. He
said that the percentage of cases show
ing wounds in the head had increased.
The reason was, of course, that the
number of sudden deaths from the
cause had markedly decreased"

Scientists War Service.

Dr. Alexis Carrel, one of the great
est of living surgeons, head Of the
Rockefeller Institute for Medical Re
search and winner of the Noble prize
for science in 1912, is forty-fOur years
old. Doctor Carrel, who is native
of France, is now wearing the "horizon
blue" field uniform of French lieu
tenant, having been sent by the Rookie
Teller institute to the front at the out
break of the war to conduct an exten-
sive inquiry into modern war surgery.
For his invaluable services to the
French wounded the French govern
ment has bestowed upon him the cross
of the Legion of Honor. Doctor Car
rel looks upon America as his real
home, and after the war will return to
New York to resume direction of the
Rockefeller institute.

Use Wireless In Storm.

BY means Of about FIVE hundred feet
of wire strung around wooden frame
work, some experimenters in the cleo
trical department of Union college,
Schenectady, N. Y, are said to have
been able to receive messages during
violent storms and determine the direc-
ton from which they come. The wire
less waves are received by the wires
on this frame just as they are re-
ceived by antennae high in the air.
They are then transmitted to tuning
devices and a telephone receiver In
the usual manner. 1t has been found
that by turning the frame about until
it's axis is in line with the direction
of the sending station, the signals are
heard most distinctly. This direction
finding feature, it Is believed, will
prove of great value In many wayA

MOCKING BIRD SAVES FOUR
Awakened by ShrilI Whistle In Middle
Of Night, Family Escapes
Death by Gas.

The shrill whistle of a mocking bird
saved the family of George Daglish Of
st. Louis from asphyxiation early one
morning.
The gas cocks Of the kitchen range
had been turned on while the family,
consisting Of Mr.. Daglish and his wife,
a son, eight years old, and daughter,
aged nine, were asleep on an upper
floor.
The mocking bird began whistling
shrill notes and awoke Mrs. Daglish
about one o'clock. She was partly over
come by the gas, but awakened her
husband, who also was suffering from
the fumes. The children then were
aroused and Daglish carried them into
the yard, while windows and doors
were thrown open. The mocking bird
continued to whistle until Mrs. Daglish
went into the kitchen and turned of
the gas.
The bird, Jim, is twelve years old
and unusually large. He is kept In
a cage in the kitchen, but can open
the door and fly about. He never be-
fore was known to make a noise at
night, and the Daglishes attribute their
escape from death to his vigilance.

New Medical Marvel.

OF all the remarkable medical in
novations, probably the most marvel
GUS is new antiseptic solution per-
fected after ten years work by DR..
Wilfred Fralick of New York DR.. Os-
car Eckstein of the University of Ber-
lin, and DR.. A. G. Allen of the Univer-
sity of Chicago.
1t is superior to the famous Carrel-
Dakin solution because, in addition to
everything that preparation can do, 1t
can be used on the brain and in the
abdominal cavity and can be injected
directly into the blood without dam
ger.
The last named quality makes 1t Of
startling significance in the treatment
of blood poisoning.
While to put the Carrel-Dakin solu-
ton into the veins of patient would
mean certain death, the new prepara-
ton, a chlorinated solution of per-
manganate of potash, can be run di-
rectly into the blood stream without
disturbing anything there except the
evil elements meant to be attacked.

mentality, a demonstration of emotion
alism which is of no value whatever.
The test of real patriotism is the merg-
ing of personal with social interest.
Neither does patriotism involve laying
ones life down when a country's mo-
tives are ignoble. The only time when
war can be justified is when it involves
the welfare of it's people for the preser-
walton of union with lofty ideals, not
for satisfying the greed and ambition
of wealthy minority who hope to in
crease their own finances through the
sacrifice of the submerged.

BNAI BIRTH PATRIOTIC MEETlNG.

Reported by Miss Sarah Schanfeld.
Some one has aptly said that great
men really never die, for their memory
dwells so wildly in the minds of pos
terity because of their ennobling quail"
ties and great achievements for hui
mainly that nothing can efface them.
This was clearly evidenced on Lincoln's
anniversary at the St. Paul Bnai Birth
open meeting. DR.. Moses Barron of
the University of Minnesota, acted as
chairman of the evening and introduced
the two speakers, Mr.. Emanuel Cohen
of Minneapolis and Prof Todd of the
State University.
Mr. Emanuel COhen's subject was
Abraham Lincoln. In a very able and
eloquent way he sketched the we'll
known vicissitudes of Lincoln's early
life, dwelling on his use of opportunity
which eventually led him from the
backwoods of Kentucky to the White
House in Washington. Then his great
responsibility as president of the United
States was emphasized, not merely to
free the slaves but to preserve the un-
ion from disruption. The four years of
burdensome war which this promise en-
tailed with it's many discouragements
are very familiar to us.
Today our country is in grave posi-
ton, too. Just as Lincoln was beset by
criticism which he wisely ignored or
skillfully lodged through his great gift
of story telling, so our president today
is receiving all sorts of promiscuous in
structions. Mr.. Cohen's plea was OBJ
viously to place more confidence in the
executive instead of being dictatorial
to a man of such breadth as President
Wilson.
-4Following Mr. Cohen, the chairman
introduced Prof. Todd of the sOciOlogi-
