INTRODUCES DRUG IN LUNGS
French Physicians Method OF Admin
istering Chloroform Said to Be
Pronounced Success.

A new method of administering
chloroform, brought out in France by
DR.. Guisez, is described in the Scien-
tific American. The doctor no longer
applies the drug by the usual com
press or mask placed over the mouth.
but introduces the chloroform vapor
directly into the lungs through tube
running into the windpipe. The tube
method has already been employed
In several hundred cases. and with
great success Besides being very
useful for operations to be performed
on the head and neck. ii is of great
interest because It never produces
nausea.
The effects of the new method Will
serve to explain the reasons why chic
reform operations always produced
nausea when operating by the formel
method, for it appears evident tina

KING OF ALL "RAlhHAKERS
Secret Of Success ot soliy oreeneUpl
Who Is Well aenerlbered in the
West, Was Simple.

Given an ingenious mind and an eye 4
70 business a live man can make mon |
ey out Of almost any old thing.
Perhaps you remember the extraordi-
nary success scored some years ago
by SolIy Greencup. the rainmaker. III
not. you can read his record in port
folio of newspaper clippings collected
al the way from Nome 10 San Diego
from eastern Oregon to western Kan
sas.
Solly Greencup indeed, occupied Tor
a while a position unique in the Annals
of meteorology. Scientists might doubt
and cynics might scOff, but whenever
Sory went after the rain clouds he al
ways got 'em. Moreover he didn
work on "the heads-I-win, tails-you-
lose" principle Of some other rainmak-
ers. Solly Greencup, when he once de-
cided he could produce rain in given
district. always backed his opinion
with hard cash. If he asked the farm
ers 10 put up 1000 for an inch OF
rain, he put up another $1,000 himself
/ as forfeit.in case he failed. And ne
/ always won.
Greencup never explained his meth
DDS. All the farmers wanted was the
rain. All Greencup wanted was the
money With the result both were
satisfied. His apparatus consisted oil
flag pole. an electric battery, Kite
with a metal tail and an air balloon
filed with a mysterious gas. Ii sclen
lists demanded the reason for these
contrivances, he shook his head ant
smiled.
Sometimes Greencup would have II
stay a long time in a locality before
he could find the exact combination
necessary to coax the wet forces int
action. Sometimes he had to comics

Once in Elsinore valley he gave tn
ground good soaking for paltr

tune. yet Mt the time no one considere
his charges exorbitant. And everybod
admitted he was a good sport. AS
grew wealthy Greencup never gay
himself frills nor assumed the title
I professor These things were afte

A few years ago Greencup went pc

Jan Industry Hard Hit.

During the war the Japanese zinc
industry was very prosperous and
large profits were made on ore which
was imported from Australia and the
French Indies. The signing Of the
armistice. however, has dealt hard
blow to this industry. and it is reported
that 1t costs $500 ton to produce Jap.

only S1S7 ton. 1t Is expected tina,
this will result in request for sub

For Red Cross
Christmas Roll

while Il is hoped that the great
permanent Red Cross WORK OF ,he
future will be wholly work OF peace
that wars have ended Tor all time
with the laying down OF arms IN the
conflict which has recently eonVuiseo
the world-it is important 10 pear IN
mind that the obligations OF the
American Red Cross respecting the
care and comfort of the nations de-
tenders is not completed. Inc para
mount duty of the Red Cross organ
ization Is to maintain the service TOT
the fighting men at 100 per cent Ell
fciencv until there is no longer any
call for II.
Figures show that rehabilitation
of the military forces or the govern
ment has not decreased the demands
on the Red Cross in important
branches OF effort affecting the well
fare of the men in uniform. On the
contrary. there has been greater
volume of work in certain lines dur
ing the last few months than there
was before rehabilitation began.
Great increases are shown in the
volume of personal service rendered
due to the growing knowledge among
the men regarding the help that Is
theirs for the asking, as well as the
mounting character of problems thai
seem to arise on the personal SIDE
OF the equation as the ranks are thin
ned in the camps and the ability u
give a fuller service through the ex
perience OF the previous months ant
years.
Along with service of the kind JUS
alluded to. reaching high-water mari
months after the signing OF the ar
mistice. there still keeps up the orig
inal distinctive work in the camp
