Insects Carry Disease.

Our knowledge of the connection of
insects with disease is a very modern
acquisition. In his presidential adj
dress to the Washington Academy of
Sciences, DIR. L. o. Howard noted that
standard medical works of a score of
years ago made no mention of the sab
ject, but recent literature records 226
different disease germs as known TO
have been carried by insects to man or
animals, 81 organisms as known to be
parasitic in insects but not known to
be transmitted, and 2S2 species of in
sects as discovered causes or carriers
of diseases of man or animals. The
transportation by wind of the body
louise, the carrier of typhus fever, is
among late discoveries to which many
writer's have given attention. Tick
paralysis is another novel subject, the
disease occurring in Australia, Africa
and North America, and Is cases have
been reported by a single Oregon physi-
clan. Progressive paralysis of motor
but not sensory nerves follows the at
tachment of the tick. The disease is
not infectious, and it has not been de-
cided whether it is due to a specific
organism or to nerve shock Infantile
paralysis is believed to be one of the
diseases not carried by insects.

USE CHoPsTIcKs IN JAPAN
Old Custom Prevails Among Poorer
Glasses, While the Rich Have Eu-
ropean Knives and Forks.

The use of chopsticks is general in
Japan, except among the richer classes,
who have adopted European knives and
forks, and, to some extent, the Euro
peans cuisine, London Tit-Bits says.
Small bowls of china or lacquered
wood are the usual table equipment.
After the various solid portions of the
food have been lifted to the mouth
with chopsticks the liquor remaining
is slipped from the bowl. In the case
of rice, which would be tedious to pick
up grain by grain, the bowl is often
raised to the mouth and the rice SHOW
eled or pushed in with the chopsticks.
It is also customary to pour a little
tea into the rice bowl after it has been
nearly emptied and in this way the
few remaining grains Of rice are
washed down as the tea is drunk.
At public places the chopsticks at
each meal must be new; this is indi-
Gated by the fact that the chopSticks
IRE made from one piece of wood and
are left joined together, as we're
matches at one time. These new chop
sticks are incased in thin paper en-
velope, sealed at the end, and bearing
Japanese characters advertising either
the hotel or some firm that has fur
nisbed them free to the proprietor for
the sake of the publicity thus gained.

ever part of China the japanese exert political
control influence there does American and Eu-
ropean trade diminish and disappear, while that
of Japan swells amazingly. May not those be
pardoned who assert that Japan's oft-declared
loyalty the policy of the open door is mere lip
service?
For sixteen years the United States has stood
behind the pledge that China's integrity should
be maintained and Japan has fervently protested
her agreement. Yet he would be blind or fool
who should deny that for quarter OF century
past Japan has in effect aimed at nothing less
than complete military police and political control
over China.
Much to Correct in Policy.
These principles of the open door and the in
tegrity of China propounded by John Hay in
1899 and 1900 respectively, and they are still the
leading motives of American policy in the Far
East. Their maintenance has been more seriously
jeopardzed by Japan, than by any other nation,
and at time seriously as since the outbreak
of the great war.
America has nothing to be ashamed of, and
Japan has Ito put it mildly much to correct In
matters of Far Eastern policy. If today Japan
finds herself alone she has none to blame but her
self and the opportunity is the more favorable
for seeing to it that she correct her faults. Not
until she has done there be any settlement
of such questions as the requirement of citizenship
by Japanese and the modification of the land laws
of California and other Western states.
These questions only be settled, and the
obstacles to full and hearty friendship between
America and Japan can only be removed, when
the American people have confidence in the good
faith of the japanese government in the larger
problems of Far Eastern policy

New Metal Discovered.

A new metal has been discovered in
the Nelson mining district of British
Columbia by Andrew G. French, and it
has been named Canadium. 1t is allied
to the platinum group and occurs pure
in the form of grain and short crystal
line rods, and also an alloy, and assays
give three ounces or less to the ton.
Canadium has brilliant luster, and,
like gold and silver and platinum, does
not oxidize when exposed to the air; it
is softer than platinum and it's melting
point is a great deal lower. The ply
steal and chemical properties of the
metal are to be studied at the chemical
laboratory of the University of Glas-
gov.
Canadium is the first new metal to
be discovered in anything more than
infinitesimal quantities since 1885.

New Metal in Use.

Thermostatic metal, a new material
is adapted for such uses as recording
temperature changes and giving auto
matte temperature control. 1t is made
of strips of two strong, non-corrosive
metals, of widely different expansion
on heating. These are welded togeth-
err, and any change of temperature
causes the compound strip to bend.
When a piece four inches long five
sixteenth inch wide and one-tenth
inch thick was raised 100 degrees
Fahrenheit, force of "a ounces was
necessary to overcome the bending
tendency and keep the strip straight.

BELGIAN GEMS SOLD IN NEW YORK.

It is said that quite recently number Of dia-
monds have been put on the market at Amster-

good reason to believe have from Germany,
and in all probability form part of the footing of
Belgium and France. The London Theological
Journal describes them being cut in manner
which made it clear that they once formed part of
old jewelry. In many instances old jewelry has
been offered for sale under circumstances which
leave little for doubt that it from prov

WEAPONS OF THE TEACHERS
Evil Methods Inspiring Fear in Hearts
of Children Not Conducive
to Best Results.

Power to produce fear is a poor
weapon. The teacher who uses it is
not doing his best work.
Snakes are feared by reason of their
sting. So are lions and tigers for rea-
son of their power to produce harm.
Fear is the weapon of an enemy.
We do not fear our friends, nor can
we fear anything that we love.
Evil is just absence of good; for it
cannot exist where good is. And
evil chooses fear for its weapon.
Neither evil nor fear should exist in
the schoolroom, says an exchange.
Good is always stronger than evil;
love always stronger than fear. Why
should teachers employ evil methods
and inspire fear in the hearts of chill
dren when. springs of love are buh-
bling up on every side?
There are smiles, and kind words,
and kind thoughts, and deeds of kind
ness and-but the list is too great to
complete. These inspire love, and as
weapons are much more efficient than
is fear.
And then there is faith! When
good loses it's trust in it's ability to
overcome, fear disarms and evil con-
quers.
An animal will not attack man
who has absolutely no fear of it..
That is the secret of the Hontamer's
power. Evil cannot defeat man who
is strong in good, and therefore he has
no cause to fear evil.

WOMEN SUFFERERS
NEED SWAMP-ROOT

Thousands upon thousands of women
have kidney and bladder trouble and
never suspect it.
Women's complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in a healthy con-
dition, they may cause the other organs
to become diseased.
You may suffer a great deal with pain
in the back, headache, loss of ambition,
nervousness and may be respondent and
irritable.
Don't delay starting treatment. DR..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root, physicians pre-
scription, obtained at any drug store, re-
stores health to the kidneys and is just
the remedy needed to overcome such con-
ditions.

Human Organs
Made Into Pictures
X-RAY OUTCOME
(By J.. w. Bower NJ. d.

|
A recent issue of the British Medical
Journal explains remarkable discovery
of DR.. James Scherer, and describes a
new process of photography by which an
abscess of the liver or the kidneys can
be photographed from living patients.
| This will be invaluable because so many
people suffer from kidney disease, and if
| it can be recognized in time they, no
doubt can be saved and life prolonged.
Such photographs as can be obtained by
this new process will show whether there
is blockade in the intestines or not,
whether the kidneys are normal and able
to do the great burden put upon them.
Unfortunately, what the liver can't
take care of passes on to the kidneys
and the intimate relation between the
two often causes disease of the kid
news. One of the poisons retained with
in the system is uric acid in excess.
Death would occur if the kidneys did
not work day and night in separating
poisons and uric acid from the blood.
The danger signals are backache. de-
pressons. aches and pains heaviness,
drowsiness, irritability, headaches, chilli
ness, rheumatic twinges, swollen joints
or govt.
This can be avoided by stimulating the
kidneys to increased action. and because
OF its tonic effect on this organ | would
advise anyone to purchase Anuric (which
is to be had nowadays at almost any
drug store), and take it three times a
day, together with pint of hot water,
an hour before meals, BY getting rid
of the uric acid You can prevent and cure
rheumatism, govt, and the pains and
aches due to this uric acid stored within
the system.
7 have found in practice that Anuric
double strength is more potent than
lithia and in most cases it will dissolve
the uric acid as hot water does sugar
