Hereditary Hay Fever.

DR.. w. Scheppegrell. president Of
the American Hay Fever Prevention
association, has recently made an an
alysis Of AS cases treated in the hay
fever clinic Of the Charity hospital at
New Orleans and elsewhere In that
city In order to determine the influ-
ence Of heredity on this disease. He
finds that in more than one-third Of
the cases the patients had father,
mother, brother or sister who was
victim OF the disease. Probably the
influence Of heredlty is even greater
than indicated by these figures. as spe-
cific susceptibility mary exist indef-
nitely without developing hay fever, by
reason Of insufficient exposure to the
pollens that cause the maIady. The
question OF the development Of nat
uraf immunity from continued expos.
ure to the specific polIens is, says Doc
tor Scheppegrell. difficult one to set
tie, on account Of the difficulty Of elm
mating the question Of decreased ex-
posure.-Scientific American.

Japan Larger Than Germany.

which shows comparison Of Germany
and the Japanese empire. Japan, Is
the greater of the two both in territory
and population. Germany's area Eek

miles, while thnt Of Japanese empire
is 26O,73S square miles. This includes
the peninsula Of Korea. which is n

The Y. NJ. c. A. in Italy, as every
where else. has asserted itself In a
most splendid and generous manner.
While the red triangle, known the
world over as the sign Of brotherhood,
Is much in evidence in the italian war
zone, the four letters "Y. NJ. @. A." are
nowhere to be seen. The reason given
for this is that the Italians, in general,
are opposed to any organization of a
public nature which Is controlled by
religious or sectarian element, q
Washington bulletin says. Such IT,
tie as that of the Y. NJ G.. A. would
create certain feeling Of mistrust
among the Italian people as to the pur-
poses OF the association.
The officers of the Y. M. G.. A. in
Italy have been quick to appreciate
this and In order to work In full har-
mony with the Italians have changed
the name Of the association to $50
sIeta (dD Fratellanza Universale" or
Society Of Universal Brotherhood"
Accordingly, the letters rs. r. u" have
everywhere been substituted for Y. nj.

REACH LIMIT IN ABSORPTION
Small Things Like the Turmoil Of q
Great War Cannot Disturb
0 Chess Devotees,

To It's devotees chess Is the most
absorbing of all mental activities, the
game that above all others brings
complete forgetfulness of the world
70 those who play and those who
watch the moves, observes q writer in
he New York Herald.
A striking example of this self-ab-
'orption has been shown recently in
he rooms Of local chess club when
distinguished experts struggled for SUI
premacy In the mimic field needless of
the stupendous four-year struggle that
was fast drawing to close on Eu-
rope's shell-torn, blood-soaked board.
What was the reckless slaughter Of
thousands Of German soldiers In COM
)arison with the sacrifice of single
worry pawn standing guard before its
queen? Which one of those who
moved the pieces or Of the greater
number who watched them with fur
rowed brows and fast-beating hearts
thought Of the kaiser's peace offer
while the queens gambit was passing
before their eyes? The pope may lift
his voice In words of solemn counsel,
but they heed him not. The only &c
clesiastical power that they recognize
IS shat Of the mitred bishop sweeping
into the heart Of the enemy's country
and shifting the rock as 1t stands.
To read the printed accounts of this
tournament Is to recall the old Puck
picture Of two chess players carried
In their chairs from burning build,
ing with the board between them. Nor
DO we wonder at the fact that 1t was
only while absorbed In his daily game
that the exiled Napoleon could forget
Sir Hudson Lowe.
