DISCOVERS WAY
 TO BALK IDIOCY
Surgeon Perfects New Method of Treating Tumor of the Hu-
 man Brain.
SAVES SCORES OF PERSONS
Discovery 10 Result of Long Series of Experiments on AnimaIs-locates Tumors and Distractions
 Every Time.

Baltimore, Md.-Dr. Walter E. Dandy, associate in surgery at Johns Hopkins hospital, has discovered a process by which purified air is pumped into the channels of the hu- man brain, thus making possible a study of the living brain.
 The discovery is regarded of tre- mendous importance in that 1t al- ready has saved scores of persons from idiocy and premature death, by mak- ing possible the exact location of brain tumors, and thus their eventual removal.
 The discovery of Doctor Dandy is the result of long series of experi- ments on animals.
 Fluid That Feeds the Brain.
 In each hemisphere of the brain there Is large ventricle or chamber connecting with an elaborate system of channels filled with fluid pro- duced apparently by one of the glands and delivered to the brain through the spine This fluid passes slowly to the surface of the brain, there to be absorbed by the brain tissue, and 1t might be described as the fluid on which the brain feeds.
 An excess of this fluid Is known as hydrocephalus, or water on the brain. Doctor Dandy has discovered that it frequently follows a tumor which blocks the passage of the fluid. Ma ture provides but one method of dis posing of it, absorption. When that is prevented by a tumor, the fluid col lects and presses against the brain, destroying It. Sometimes patients will live for years as imheciles.
 Trials So Far Successful.
 In every case where it has been used the method has been successful in locating tumors and other brain ob- structions within hairs breadth One of the most remarkable features of the discovery is that it is most eff cacious when only local anesthetic is used. It was discovered that the patient felt no i'll effects and was able to give assistance to the surgeon.
 In one case described by Doctor Dandy a patient was operated on half . dozen times for tumor of the brain without success. Doctor Dandy used his process and located the tumor, which was removed from point not considered by diagnosicians.
 A photograph of the patient prior to the operation showed face with sag ging lines and the vacant stare of im- becility. A photograph a few months after the operation showed a man ap- pArently in full possession of his senses.

THE KARICOFE COMPANY
 Marianna, Arkansas

cept a position at the head of the music department at Belts music store, brought with him the body of his wife, who had been dead for five months.
 Her last request was that she not be buried and Prof. Gilmore is com- plying with it. Her death occurred at Wichita, Kan, ahd since that time he has made several moves, al- ways taking the body with him and leaving it in the morgue at the un- dertaking establishments in the cities where he resides. Prof. Gilmore says he intends to continue keeping the body out of the grave.
 His four children, all of whom are musicians, are living here with him, and they spend the early part of every evening in musical recita- tion at their rooming house, playing most from the operas and other sentimental music.
 The case is a most unusual one and is causing much interest.

PINE TAR PREVENTS
 GRUB IN THE HEAD

The most effective method of treating a sheep to prevent grub in the head is to smear the animals nose with pine tar, advises K. A. Hunt of the department of animal husbandry of the College of Az riculture at Fayetteville.
 The pine tar on the nose keeps away the flies which causes the disease. The tar may be smeared on the bottom of the feeding trough with salt sprinkled over it. In eat ing the salt the sheep gets the tar, although it may eat some of 1t, no har mis done the animal.
 In wooded lands where sheep have considerable range the fol- lowing method may be used. Select hollow log and cut holes in it, large enough for the sheep to insert its head up to the eyes. Smear the side of the hole with tar and place the salt inside the log. The sheep will get more tar on it's nose with this method than by putting the tar in the trough.
 So far no reliable method has been found to cure the grub in the head according to MT. Hunt. How ever, he states, the method used oy Prof. Frank Kleinheinz, the noted sheep specialist of the University Of wisconsin, may be used. Prof. Aelnheinz advises a mixture of snuff mixed with raw linseed oil. me mixture is poured down the nostrlls of the sheep, causing it to sheeze, and in so doilc the g,Ub may be forced out of the animals head
 Grub in the hcaG is more common u areas where sheep are grazing ea brush and wooded land, but from aqqines received by the animal assOandry department of the College VI agriculture it is evident that saeep affected with the parasite are Oe found scattered over the en- 1re state.

When l stoop- ed over I could hardly straighten up again. My kidneys acted irreg- ularly. I also suffered from dizzy spells and black specks seemed to float before my eyes.

Madrid.-King Alfonso was fined two pesetas for walking across the grass in the Gardens of the Alcazar Every member of his suite who followed the king across the greensward like wise was fined.
 The first inthnation the royal party had that it had committed an offense was when a guardian approached and said: Your majesty, walking on the grass Is forbidden. I must fine you ac- cording to my instructions" At first King Alfonso was abashed. then he laughed and paid the money.
 Later the mayor of the town called at the palace and apol- ogized to the king. but his majesty told him the guardian had acted properly and should be rewarded for devotion to duty.
