ment.
MOBILE, Ala, June S.-"Mobile club
owners are well satisfied. The season
has been as successful as we had
hoped for and we have no idea of
quitting" said President A. L. Staples

Because Of Its peculiar swaying mo-
ton in walking the camel has been
called the "ship Of the desert" This
title may also have some reference to
the extreme stupidity and passiyity Of
the animal, which submits to great
loads, which 1t will often carry for
days at time without stopping for
food or drink, with no more urging
than ship would require from the
hands Of its pilot, says the Popular
Science Monthly. The manner in which
the drivers hobble the camels when
they stop for rest Is interesting
They do not depend upon stakes driven
in the deep, yielding sand, but simply
double back and tie one Of the fore

KEEPS VITAL POINTS SAFE.
Medical Explanation of Work Per-
formed by Fluid Which Bathes
Brain and Spinal Cord.

Until very recently the exact role
played by the cerebro-spinal fluid
that watery substance which bathes
the brain and spinal cord.was not
understood. But nowadays it is
common practice among surgeons to
squirt drugs into the tissues contain
ing this fluid or to draw out a drop or
two Of it for examination.
The Journal Of the American Medi-
cal Association, commenting on an I'D
dress by DR.. W. D. Halliburton be-
fore the Royal Society of Medicine,
says he describes the cerebro-spinal
fluid as an ideal physlologic solution
in which the exqulsitely sensitive nerv-
GUS system Is always bathed.
This fluid does not, like the lymph,
arise from the blood by exudation of
serum through the walls of the capll-
larles, but is the product of the Sc
creting cells of what are called the
choroid plexuses In the ventricles of
the brain. The pressure under which
the nuid always exists Is Que 10 tne
secretory pressure of these cells and
not to the blood. And there are
scarcely any proteins found In 1t.
Halliburton says that In order to keep
out tho harmful protelns, which would
poison the nerves, the harmless ones
also are almost completely excluded.
The membranes that line the spaces
in which the fluid is found seem to
permit substances to pass from 1t to
the blood, but to be impermeable Tex
cept for oxygen) In the direction from
the blood to the fluid. The value of
this arrangement is that when poi
sons enter the blood. as they do so
easily, they are kept away from the
delicate nerves.
