WHEN HEART ACTION STOPS
Not Always Easy to Assign q Reason
fer That Particular Form Of
Life'5 Ending.

Departments Of health and medical
statisucians rightly refuse to recoe-
nize heart failure as a definite cause
of death for their mortality lists, The
term having come to be q ready refuge
for ignorant or INDECENT Physicians
looking for an easy explanation of am
unexpected death There seem, how
ever, to be some cases left in which the
expression finds a proper place ana
supplies a lacuna in present-day med
iCal knowledge.
Occasionally there is apparently no
good reason in the heart condition to
expect that it may suddenly cease It's
activity, ana yet it actually stops APP
paroutIy the effect OF even some slight
irritation becomes 80 multiplied I'M
heart tissues as to bring about a
definite disturbance or rhythm, and
cardiac action ceases for good and ALL
Not infroquouty such cases come TO q
climax shortly a&er food has been
taken into the stomach; then there
seems 60 re some connection between
The gastric condition and the sudden
heart stopp2ge.
Long ago Or. Oliver Wendell Holmes
suggested that the angel OF life sets
this living pendulum going ana that it
goes on and on until the angel or death
breal~ into the ease and rudely stops
it. The expression is highly dsua-
tive and yet contains in it the germ Of
the thought that sometimes life's pro-
cessos seem TO nave approached q
terminus, which they may reach uncN-
pectedly rs the result Of some iulta-
ton that would iu itself presumably
not be sufficient to produce any such
far-reaching elfect.-New York Her

An antagonistlc influence 20 reading
exists i'm Some quarters In the curious
ly mistaken idea that It binders the
development Of individuality, making
copiers instead of originators. Any
knowledge of the history of great men
and women proves the absolute falsity
Of this; moreover, the conscious de-
sire TO be original which such an
attitude on the part of grown-ups
lends to in children is very bad. one
never heard of great men being pre-
occupied with the endeayor TO be orig
inal. Observation, again, is increased
rather than the reverse by the habit
Of reading. Those children into whose
lives books other than as enforced
lessons never enter are as a rule singu-
arly unobscryant--proof that the
brain must be behind the eyes ia OBJ
seryati0n, just as 1t must be behind
the hand ia technical work.

200 SUITS OF PAJAMAS
IN ATTACHES WARDROBE
Won Bernstorff's Party Also Carries
Much Cotton Clothing and Gold. of
Which It Will Be Relieved

HALIFAX, y. s, February a2.-Oue
OF the German embassy secretaries re-
turning to Germany with former AM
bassador Won Bernstorff on the steam
ship Frederk VIII, which is being ex-
zrained here by British authorities on
her voyage from New York to Copen-
hagen. is reported TO have 200 suits of
pajan1as in his possession. In the bag
gage OF nearly all the other members
Of the party, cotton goods, known to be
scarce In Germany, are plentiful, the
customs inspectors have discovered. In
view OF the close association between
cotton and explosives. it is understood
that the examiners will take some of
the excess clothing from the Germans
and make an allowance for it.
1t Is learned also that the Germans
are we'll supplied with gold. AS this
is contraband, it is believed 1t will be
exchanged into some form of currency
less useful TO Germany.
The care with which the Frederik
WITS passengers are being watched is
shown by the fact that the customs
guards are kept on the ship SO as to
avoid any possibility of messages be-
ing taken ashore. II has been learned
that the customs men themselves
are kept under surveillance by secret
service agents and are forbidden to
converse with passengers.

here and a rest OF two hours taken
Following this the group divided into
TWO parties, one going south and one
north. Ten OF the walkers chose TO
remain and rest around the campfire
however. 1t was evening when the
return was made to Washington.

RELIEF SEEN IN ESCH BILL
FOR BAD FOOD SITUATION
Author to Publish Report on Meas
ure Designed to Prevent Car Tie
Ups. Such as ut Present.

Representative Esch of Wisconsin is
about to publish the interstate and
foreign commerce committee report on
his bill giving the interstate COM
merce commission full powers to act in
the case of congested freight cars, and
the difficulties attending the exchange
of freight cars between railroads.
Members of Congress are free to say
that if the Esch bill could be enacted
today, with the penalties attached for
failure to keep the roads clear of
stalled "empties," the railroads would
make every effort to relieve the very
bad situation confronting the shippers
of food and fuel.
Already the interstate commerce COM
mission has assumed power to act, but
it is believed at the Capitol that rail-
roads would step ivelier" If they
knew Congress is about to enact a law
carrying penalties for failure to keep
the freight cars moving.
