SCOUTS TAB CANNON BALLS.

Fifteen thousand dollars worth or
old cannon balls which have been used
for decorative purposes at the Preside
in San Francisco for many years, are
TO be utilized by the government in
the manufacture of new ordnance.
Seventy boy scouts made an inven-
tory of the cannon balls, which adorn
he edges of the lawns and roadways
in the military reservation.
After two hours work. under the su-
Dervision of regular army officers, the
boy scouts counted $500 of the old
cannon balls.
The cannon balls will bring $50 a
ton as scrap iron. 1t is believed the
government can find use for the old
ammunition which will make its value
still higher.
San Francisco boy scouts are now
being utilized for many different wal
activities by the government. The
boys have cheerfully responded to
every demand made on their time and
labors, and are elamoring for more
work to "down the Big Pirate"

GREAT WRITERS NEAR DUEL
Tolstoy and Turgenev in Fierce DIS
pute That Might Have Led to
Deadly Encounter.

Tolstoy and Turgenev, famous Rus
sian novelists, were contemporaries
and friends, but on one occasion they
had a serious falling out. AS gathered
from a recent biography, t4is is the
story of their quarrel: The two ia
mouse novelists met at friends house.
Turgenev spoke enthusiastically OF
his young daughters new English gov
erness, mentioning that she required
the child to mend old, ragged clothes
to give to the poor. do you consider
that good?" demanded Tolstoy. Il GER
tainly do" replied Turgenev; sit makes
the charity workers realize everyday
needs" "And I think that we'll
dressed girl with filthy, malodorous
rags in her hands is acting an insincere
farce" commented Tolstoy. Il ask
you not to say that" exclaimed Tur-
genev, holly. "Why should / not say
what am convinced is true?" retorted
Tolstoy. eff you say that again l Will
box your ears !" Turgenev cried, white
with rage, and rushed from the room
A duel was narrowly averted. After
ward these famous men became rec
onciled, and on his deathbed Turgeney
wrote an affecting note to Tolstoy, ad-
dressing him as "the great writer OF
our Russian land"-Outlook.

Chinese Queues Not Barred.

Although the traffic in human hair
has not been so brisk during the past
few years as formerly on account of
the veering of the fashions in hair
dressing toward the EXTREMIST simple
ity, there are millions of pounds OF
human hair exported from China. One
of the peculiar facts in connection
with the trade is that often after the
Chinese send the hair to us we treat
it and dye 1t and send it back to be
made up for special use. This is usual
ly true in regard to the invisible hair
nets which American and European
women use to keep their own locks
in order on windy day.
The hair-net business has become OF
great importance to the province OF
Shantung, which now provides practic-
ally the entire supply for the market.
Thus the hair net worn by the veriest
stay-at-home in America has doubtless
crossed the ocean three times.-Popu-
lar Science Monthly.

WOMEN TO HAVE
CONSPICUOUS PLACE
IN FLORIDA STATE FAIR

The women of Florida are signally
honored by the Florida State Fair and
Exposition management, but no more
so than their work of every character
merits. They have had set aside for
their exclusive use one great building,
of the State Fair grounds, wherein
will be displayed whatever pertains
particularly to woman's achievements
in the realm of domestic economy and
science, her accomplishments in en-
broidery, knitting, crocheting, as well
as in the art of basketry, bead work,
the working of stencilled designed and
all the finer evidences of woman's skill.
The results of her work in canning,
preserving and, especially in the max
ing of wartime cakes and breads will
claim very interested attention. En-
tries in all these and other lines OF
woRen's endeavors are encouraged by
the State Fair management through
the liberal awards of premiums, all of
which are set forth in the annual pre-
MUM list and catalogue which is now
available. In connection with the tex
tile exhibits there will be sales de-
partment This will afford an oppor-
tunity to those desiring to sell articles
on exhibition, or duplicates thereof for
which orders may be taken. No charge
will be made for this service, but en-
| try cards must show the articles in
tended for sale, with the price OF each
rHod on fhQ card

| of organizations are taking very
great deal of interest in the Woman's
Department of the Florida State Fair
and are devoting very considerable
time and energy to seeing that the dis
plays in the Woman's Building shall
| be in every manner worthy OF this
great State which owes so much OF
its development and growth to woman
kind. The State Fair management has
especially requested through the press,
and otherwise, that theJwomep OF Flor
ida shall make the very best possible
display this year, a time in which they
have been so conspicuous in all win
lthe-war" work and movements which
the State Fair of this year wishes TO
be brought prominently before the peo-
pie. as evidences alike of their pa
triotism and of their ability to achieve

EXPLAINS POISONING BY FOOD
Science Has Discarded Theory, Long
Held, That Ptomaines Are the
Cause of infection.

Poisoning by food is no longer ex-
planned as ''ptomaine poisoning, but
in an address to the American Asso-
citation for the Advancement OF Science,
DR. e. o. Jordan showed that 1T is due
either to true bacterial toxins compare
BILE to those of diphtheria and tetanus
baciIli. or to Infection with specific in
lection carried by the food article. The
best known example of the toxin-form-
ing microbes is the bacillus botulinus,
which has produced in the Upited
States % recorded cases OF poisoning,
of which II were in California, while
Great Britain has reported no case.
This type of poisoning is rare, but IN
lection with food-borne disease bac-
terra seems to occur in a great number
of cases. The bacteria are either pres
ent In the food itself, or the food Is
contaminated from human sources
The chief food-borne infections h1th-
| erto traced to human contamination
are typhoid fever and the various
paratyphoid infections; but to these
| must be added certain infections rare
Iy transmitted by any food except
milk, such as diphtheria, scarlet fever
! and streptococcus sore throat. The
| type of infection from food contain
mated at it's source is exemplihed IL
| the diseases of certain food animals
| The chief infections known to be Out
to food infected at its source are those
| mainly meat-borne-caused by tn
group of paratyphoid enteritidis Dac
terra, and those resulting from the u.s.
of infected milk. The bacterial dis
eases of plants do not infect man.
