Castor Oil for Rotulism.

In case of. botulism- poisoning
from eating spoiled vegetables or fruit
and most common with canned goods
the most effective remedy is a gener-
Gus dose of castor oil. But it must
be given quickly, as one of the effects
of the poisoning is to paralyze the in
testines, and when this has taken place
the oil will do no good.

KOREAN PRINCE TAKEN BY LAPS;
 CASE UNUSUAL

SEOUL, Korea. - Prince Euiwha of Korea, who recently was arrested by the Japanese as he was crossing the Manchurian border, did not at tempt to escape from Korea, but was Kidnapped by Korean revolution ists, who were taking him to Shang- hai, according to the Japanese of- ficial version of the incident.
 The prince, who formerly was re- ported to be engaged to an Ameri- can girl, has since his capture been confined to his palace at Seoul while the government deliberates upon the steps to be taken against him. It was at first believed that he had attempted to escape.
 The story reads like court con- i spiracy of medieval Korea or China. /, The prince had been closely Watcneo by the Japanese, who suspected him ] of favoring Korean independence. i The Japanese say that he was lured to an empty house by members of secret organization known as the Dai Tong Dna. There he was con- fronted by ten armed Koreans, whs compelled him to start for Shanghai with them. The leader of the bane of kidnapers, the Japanese say, wa Zen Kyo, a well-known independ 'ence leader.
 The prince was kept secluded to' lsome time in the mountains around Seoul, and then was taken on boar' la train for the Manchurian border
 On the way he was arrested wlt
 fl other Koreans alleged to hay been participants in the conspiracy.

SNAKE HOLLOW IS
 ATTRACTING MANY GAS PROSPECIQRS

PITTSBURGH.-S natural gas at the rate of almost 10,000,000 cubic feet a day, the Snake Hollow field, which is not yet five months old, already has made large mum. Der of persons comfortably rich. while some thousands of others are anxiously awaiting the outcome of their subterranean gamble in more than 200 wells where the drills are kept going day and night.
 The development, which became apparent when a strong flow of gas blew the top off a derrick on Sep tember 28 last, covers no more than 100 acres of town lots in the out skirts of the thriving little city of McKeesport, 16 miles from Pitts burgh. Efforts are being made by important oil and gas interests to extend the field. If these test wells, now being drilled, come in gushers, an important addition to the gas producing territory of Allegheny county will have been found. If they are "dusters," geologists say. it will not be long until Snake Hol- low will be a thing of the past, and dreams of wealth be nothing more than memory.
 Rock pressure, the measure of natural gas at the well, was 1,60O pounds to the square inch when the first we'll came in. This pressure, experts say, has now been reduced to 600 pounds, indicating that al , ready the field is beginning to de . cline. However, there are some 20 good wells in the field, and every well which reaches the SpeechleS sand, where the gas is found, comes ; in a gusher good for 5,O0O,00O te ,1O,OOO,0OO cubic feet. This canno !, last, for the wells are drilled SC 1, close together that the pool will bs s exhausted very soon unless 1t | 9 found to extend over much wide l. area than that now producing. \ But while it lasts Snake Hollow n is taking on all the features of
