FRENCHMAN SCOUTS idea
OF USING THYROID GLANDS
BY c. r. BERTELLl.
(Uniyersal Service.)

PARIS, Feb. 25.-Speaking of the
possibility of restoring youth ana ex-
tending the term of human life by
means of the discovery OF Prof. Hulk
ley, at oxford. DR.. Tuffier. the cele-
brated French surgeon. said today:
Application of thyroid secretions
or chemical solutions to human beings
in the near future for the purpose OF
reviving youthful energies is prob
lematical. The fact that human or
gans may be kept alive after being
separated from the bodies, as shown
by DR.. Carrel. proves the possibility
of maintaining life artificially. but
such organs are dependent on the
energetic force of the human body.
They have no independent life and
are not self-sustaining. Hence. II is
impossible to say that the elixir of
youth has been found"
Edmond Perrier, honorary presi-
dent of the French Museum of Nat
ural history, said:
Experiments in the grating of
glands was first tried in France in
1867 by DR.. Brown-Sequard, and these
studies have been continued since
that time. 1t has been shown that
prolongation of life and determine
ton of sex are closely related to the
function of the thyroid glands. and it
may be possible to apply stimulating
solutions to human beings. 1t has
been proved conclusively that a thy
roid preparation hindering obesity
tends to determine the male SEX"

Friends of Senator Hiram Johnson
Of California, one Of the aspirants for
the Republican Presidential nomina-
ton, yesterday made public a letter
written by the late Col. Theodore
Roosevelt, in 1916, referring to Sen
ator Johnson as the one man in public
life with whom he found himself in
most complete sympathy.
The Roosevelt letter was addressed
to Edgar Williams, State civil service
commissioner Of California. 1t was
an acknowledgment Of letter from
Mr.. williams telling the colonel he
had once asked Booker Washington
his opinion as to the greatest man in
his lifetime. Washington had
promptly replied, Roosevelt" Colonel

VORONOFF WARNS PUBLIC
ON ELIXIR DISCOVERIES

PARIS, Feb. 25.-The public should
not be misled by the assertions of
the British press that Professors Hux-
ley and Perkins Of oxford, have dis
covered the elixir of life. The only
novelty is that a synthetic substitute
for tho thyroid extract has been
found.
Any physician knows the function
Of the thyroid secretion, which is not
rejuvenation, but the development of
the body to its full growth.
That tadpoles have developed into
toads in three weeks instead Of three
months shows that they were helped
toward a result which is the inverse
Of rejuvenation.
The discovery OF a synthetic thyroid
extract is interesting because it will
facilitate the administration of the
secretion to children born without
those glands, just as adrenalin, which

The farmers of this locality who

to purchase them at the sale to be
held on Friday, Oct. 1st, at the John

stock obtainable. They are headed
by the great bear, Amber Hope, No.

81 inches high, 10 1-2 inch bone.
He is sired by Prince Big Bone, No.

buy. He was twice the Grand Cham
pion at the National Swine Show,
record that no other boar (any
bree) holds today. Two registered
sows and pigs will also be sold. The

OF Dent CORN

Several ears of corn, which in our
judgment are the best we have seen
this year, were brought in recently
by one of our prosperous and ener-
getic farmers, Mr.. c. K. Smalley, of
Hugo Twp. The corn is of the North
western Dent variety and was grown
from seed raised by himself last year
The thorough working of the ground
before and after the planting of the
seed is considered by Mr.. Smalley to
be the secret of the success of the
crop, and so we are giving the cul-
tivation of the ground as we remem-
ber it.
The ground was covered with piles
of manure during the winter, and
when spring came the manure was
scattered over the field and the
straw burned out. (Mr. Smalley
