Even the pig knows how to protect him

experiments. He allowed pigs to feed
themselves od libitetn with corn, meat
meal, oilmeal, salts and the like, from
separate hoppers. During early growth,
when new tissues were being made rapidly,
these pigs ate much larger proportions of
protein than when growth became slower

eaten, the protein deficiency thus caused

Similar experiments made in my labora-
tory with albino rats gave much the same
results. These animals were given their
choice between two food mixtures, one ade-
quate for growth, the other inadequate,
owing to the deficiency, or absence, of some
one factor essential for growth. Although
these foods were alike in physical proper
ties and so nearly alike in their constitu-
ents that it was difficult to believe that the
rats could distinguish between them by any
OF their senses, nevertheless, all but one of
the several rats SO chose their food as to
make practically normal growth. How they
did this is one of the wonders Of nature

Then and Now

1918
The stars looked down: but the erring
world was mad,
And the dust of tawdry living filed
its eyes:
And glamour blinded hearts were strIv-
ing TO be glad
In the glories of man-made Para
disc
So that no one saw the pale, pure stars
agleam across the night
tHuman eyes forever lowered TO the
sod,
And His creatures as they struggled on
in search of gold or might
Had no time to lift their faces to their
God.
The stars looked down: but the chasteneo
world was grave,
For its hands were busy binding
bleeding wounds;
And sorrow-softened hearts were trying
to be brave
Mid the terrorizing din of battls
sounds
But at evening, when nights shadows
fell on poverty and pain,
On the vileness and the valor ct rs
wars,
As the workers kept white vigil o'er sns
wounded and the slain
They lifted driven faces to the stars.
