The war Is furnishing the makers Of
textbooks In this country. Conditions
have changed so much since 1914 and
are continuing TO change SO rapidly,
that many OF the school books put
out by publishing companies In even
recent years are quite out Of date
now. The chief difficulty Is found in
the case Of histories, biographies and
books of reference, but there are fur
Their problems lurking In German
textbooks containing praise Of the
Hohenxollerns. School boards and
rs much rs do the publishers.
Somehow, the average citizen does
mt pity the textbook makers SO much
as he might. The latter are only be-
ing done by as they have always done

Diphihcria Easy to Cure.

Diphtheria Is an infectious disease
more commonly found in children,
but also found in individuals Of any
age. Dipthcria occurs at all seasons
of the year, but is most common dur.
ing the late fall, winter and spring
months, according to DIR. o. r. Brad
ford Of the University Of Missouri. II
Is usually characterized by
a dirty grayish-white menu
brane on the tonsils, the
back Of the mouth and in the throat.
The germ causing the disease pro-
duces very poisonous toxins which
cause the death Of the tissues In the
nose and throat, and liberation. Az
ter the liberation appears, this toxin
Is absorbed by the blood and affects
other parts Of the body. Il IL this alb
sorptten Of toxin which causes the pa
tient to have fever. The disease, on
account Of this toxin, Is very danger
GUS II untreated, often causing paraly-
Of the mouth, and sometimes Of the
limbs.
Diptheria Is highly contagious. II
is transmitted TO other individuals
through the secretion Of the nose and
throat. The disease Is readily cured
however, by the use Of antitoxin,
which Is q harmless substance and
should be given in all cases. The an
titoxin does no good II the disease
has gone too far. No harmful effects
are ever experienced from the anti
toxin itself. Persons exposed may be
prevented from taking the disease by
giving . small amount Of this anti
toxin.
Diphtheria, unlike other infections
Of the throat, often Is not accompanied
BY severe discomfort and il very dan
gcrous on that account. When any
membrane Ia seen In the throat, Of
when anyone. child or adult, com.
plains Of sore throat, . doctor should
be seen at once to determine whether
or not the condition In diphtheria. II
this rule Is followed, and ALL persons
exposed TO diphthcria ere given small
doses Of antitoxin, the further spread
Of the disease may be prevented.

SCIENCE AND WAR A UNIT
Members Of French Military Expedition
In Balkans Are nevoting Much
Time to Both.

The French military expedition in
the Balkans, following the example of
the armies of Napoleon and Marshal
Maison in carefully preserving and
classifying all objects of archaeological
interest discovered by the troops, has
gathered data that 1t is thought will
throw much light on the primitive his.
tory of Macedonia.
Objects unearthed in trench digging
mt the front In Macedonia and in the
construction of field works in the in.
trenched camp are assembled at Sa.
loniki all duly labeled, with full de-
tails of their discovery.
Organized research is being done so
far as circumstances permit. Three
flying columns have been sent to cover
particularly interesting regions to
make soundings with a view to the
preparation Of archaeological charts or
maps.
These columns have already collect.
ed information of inestimable value,
with specimens of poetry, fragments of
ceramics, with data as to the depth at
which they were discovered.

Racial Differences.

A new idea is that races of men NAV
be differentiated chemically, Just as
they are separated by easily seen ply.
sical or anatomical peculiarities OF
makeup, hair, skin, etc. In the blood
of Germans "a count Of 4,57O,OOO white
corpuscles per cubic millImeter has
been made, while similar count In the
blood of French has shown an average
of 100000; and 1t is believed that
other racial differences quite as notable
will be revealed when wide compare
tive study shall have been made. The
study as suggested would include the
density of organs. viscosity of the
blood, and the general chemical rela.
tions of the various parts Of the body
1t Is pointed out that the results might
clear up the mystery of the immunity
OF certain races to certain diseases. ex
plain the cat-and-dog .antlpathies OF
same races, and show us why certain
instincts and appetites are so persist
ent In various people. Doctor Barillop
foresees that the chemical test of races
would even greatly aid In shaping i'm.
migration and marriage laws.

EASY TO HANDLE BIG LOADS
Attachment Devised for Trucks Makes
the Work Of the Wheeler SO
Per Cent Easier.

In order to make 1t possible for a
workman to manage a heavily loaded
two-wheeled hand truck with less ply
sical exertion than is ordinarily re-
quired an attachment has been devised
which holds the cargo In place, allow
Ing the mass to be tilted forward until
its center of gravity is over the wheel
axle.
When wheeling on level flooring a
man Is thus relieved of the weight of
the article he is moving; his concern is
merely to maintain its balance while
propelling the truck.
The device consists of an anchor and
chain attachment, housed in tube,
which is attached beneath truck. BY
tipping the latter forward against the
object it is TO carry. the chain is drawn
out to the required length, locked by
dropping one of the links into narrow
slot in the neck of the tube and the
hook engaged at any convenient point

Steel for RattIeahins

Nearly 10000 gross tons of steel will
he needed to build the 66 various new
battleships, destroyers and submarines
bids for the construction of which were
taken by the United States navy In
October. When these are added to our
navy they will make 1t one of the most
formidable in the world. Some en-.
tightening statistics regarding these
naval vessels appear In Popular Me.
chanics Magazine. In each of the -four
new battle cruisers there will he 15,O25
tons of steel; In each OF the four new
battleships there will be 13,761 tons
OF steel; In the 20 new destroyers, 325
tons Of steel each, and In the 80 new
submarines, 1S6 tons each. A hospital
ship and an ammunition ship will need
1000 tons of steel each. Taking $40 a
ton MS the average price OF steel al
present, these vessels mean an outlay
of not less than $1O,OOO.OOO for the
steel only.

SOULS ENTRANCE INTO BODY
Matter Over Which TheoIogians Have
Differed Since the First Time 4
Theory Was Advanced.

DIR. Austin O'Malley Of New York
has just revived the ancient discus
sion concerning the moment the hu-
man soul enters the body. In an ar
ticle in America he contrasts the two
opposite theories: 1) That of Aris-
totle, that the soul is infused about
the fortleth day, to which st. Thomas
Aquinas, st. Anselm, st. Alphonsus
Liguori and most of the medieval NOR
nlists and theOloglans adhered. (2)
That the entrance of the soul is stimuli
taneous with the fusion Of the single
nuclei in the two parental germ cells,
to which most modern embryologists,
physicians and mOralists give their
adhesion.
Cardinal Mercier and some other
great theologians cling to the Aristotle
lian theory today, basing their belief
on the idea that not until the body
takes actual human form is the
breath of life" breathed into 1t and it
becomes "a living SOUL"
But Doctor O'Malley and the embry-
ologists hold that the earliest embryo
Is human being, therefore a body
with human soul.
