No Other Place Would Do.

A dentist, who had been made nerv-
Gus by frequent burglaries in his
vicinity, was somewhat startled recent
ly by having man come regularly at
the same hour every evening and sit
on his doorstep. He finally suggested
that, if it would be all the same to
him, he would be pleased to have him
divide his attention and sit on some
neighbor's doorstep for while.
But it wouldn't be the same"
shouted the visitor" nor anything like
it. You are dentist and l have an
aching tooth that l haven't the cour-
age to have pulled out. / come here
every afternoon trying to make up my
mind to have it out, and as soon as l

aching, but when / sit on your door

DAMAGED Goods.

The little boy of the suburb who runs
errands for the neighbors when he gets
a penny for it stepped timidly up to the
counter of the hardware store.
II want a-uh, lock washer! You
know, one that goes on a bolt to keep
the nut from slipping, and is station

The hardware dealer pulled out lit

disks on the glass showcase. The boy
examined them. He found that they
were not only perforated in the center,
but that they We're split, and the two
ends bent apart, much like the clincher

He handed the washers back after
gravely examining them.

SERUM FOR RAT-BlTE FEVER
Japanese Physicians Declare Cure Is
Obtained From Veins of Persons
Who Have Recovered.

A group of eminent Japanese doc
tors has been busy studying rat-bite
fever ever since FutalN, Ishiwara and
the discovery of the microbe that
causes it. This is n spirochete, So
called because it's form is spiral or
zig-zag. Several types of this spiro-
chete were found in men who had been
bitten by rats, and in guinea pigs that
had been experimentally inoculated.
These were identified by Futaki as in
all probability identical.
Doctors Renjiro, Kaneko and Kikuzo
Okuda of the Imperial University in
Kyushu, FulSuoka, Japan. contribute
to the Journal of Experimental Medi-
cine confirmation of Futaki's belief !;
Doctor Ryokichi Inada contributes a
description of the disease; Doctors Yu-
TAXA lido, RolSuto Holt, Hiroshi Ito and
Hidetsune Wani describe experiments
that prove the rat to be the common
carrier of the Spirocheta icterohaemor-
rhagica, as the microbe of the disease
is called; and Doctors Yutaka lido, Hi
IoSlll lto, IliuetSuIle Wulil anu NlhuIo
Okuda discuss the possibility of pro-
ducing Immunity.
The latter go into details of their
experiments and come to the conclu-
sion that the "serum of persons who
have recovered from rat-bite fever con-
tains an immune body which destroys
the spirochetes of that disease"
The Importance of these articles lies
in the final proof that this spirochete
is the cause of the fever, that rats are
the carriers, and that the disease can
be cured.

Over the Fence and Out.

AT the Gibson county fair at Prince

must be guarded to keep boys and

"Got no money; guess I'll get out, :"
was the response. "No. on second

stay in on condition. You go wake that
policeman and tell him you climbed in
over the fence"
"Shucks, then eh'll throw me out. f"
"Try it. anyway" said the presi-

Long Boy did as hidden. II climbed

watchman.
"What!" exclaimed that individual.
"Then right out you go"
He dragged the youth toward gate,
but the youngster yelled Justify to Mr.
Murphy and he came up.

planned the policeman; "he climbed
the fence"
"He said he did" snapped back the
association head, "but l told him to
stay and have appointed him to keep
you awake. Turn him loose"
Long Boy saw the fair, but no more
of his kind got over the fence that
day.
