Speeding Up Life.
Literary Digest.

L1ICl al DASSoCs
The Illustrated London News, des-
cribing particularly the experimental
work of Julian Huxley at Oxford,
that it's chemical principle, thyroxin,
which has now been produced arti-
fcially by chemists, possesses a re-
markable power of fastening the
chemical activities of the organism.
In animals that have larval stage,
or instance, it hurries the transform
alton into the final, or permanent
form; it can turn even the tiniest
tadpole into frog at once. The
writer notes that hitherto physicians
have contented themselves with restor-
ing a mans thyroid activity when
either excessive or deficient through
disease, to its proper normal level.
They know that the thyroid does
something, and that if it is abnormal,
disease appears. But they have not
yet tried to penetrate the real secret
and to apply it to practical ends.
But
"Other workers, however, have been
deepening our knowledge and show
ing that substances produced by the
thyroid have an effect upon the most
fundamental properties of life; but
we still do not know how to apply it
to control the phenomena of growth
and vital activity, and perhaps of
sex and cid age. We can, however,
see the direction in which future re-
searches must lie.
"The new knowledge has come, as

there is always one man capable of
wisely and honestly representing the

This has certainly been the case
with the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Engineers and Warren S. Stone.
That his leadership has been wise
and his reward is just is indicated by
the fact that under him this organize
ton has built one of the finest office
structures in Cleveland, on land pur-

It has also recently opened a CO.

These and many other enterprises
for the prosperity of the body and the

A Great Painter.
Boston Transcript.

An apostle of beauty in it's highest
aspect-a transcendentalist of color,
the Puritan estheticized-the frame Of
Abbott HI. Thayer as painter will
remain forever as one of the brightest
jewels in Boston's crown, consoling us
with the reflection that though our
city, in the great REIMBURSEMENT of the
country's activities, has ceased to be
the literary center, its sons remain
eminent in the field of art. Mr..
Thayer was born in Boston at a time
when to be a Bostonian was to possess
lofty motive; and all the city's high
strung past may be said to have pass
ed into his soul.
By temperament crusader for the
good, the true and the beautiful, he
was restrained from participation in
the struggle for fame and wealth by
the most vigorously retiring retiring
temperament. The mania Of fame
never possessed him, but the passion
for beauty led him to the deepest
study Of natures forms and coloration

A Shark Industry.
Toronto Mail and Express.


A Victoria despatch outlines new
industry which has been started along
the British Columbia coast. This is
nothing more or less than shark
catching. Some one has discovered
that the shark has almost as many
valuable parts as the packer has
found insthe hog. The shark has no
squeal, but it has more variety. The
shark-meat is said to be almost as
toothsome as bit of whitefsh or
salmon. The head is full of fine glue.
The fins are a Chinese delicacy. The
liver has 60 or 70 per cent of fine oil
which is usually substituted for So
called "cod-liver oil"-and some glyc-
crime Sharks teeth are in demand
for the manufacturing of ornaments.
The bones are excellent for fertilizing
use. The hides are suitable for tan
ming, and range from sole leather to
fine kid-like leather which can be call
ed "suede." 1t is said that in Seattle
shark-leather is being used for hip
boots that are waterproof.
No matter what part of the shark
is brought forward, some economical
use can be found for it, and there are
millions of sharks along the coast.
All these claims may be true, in more
or less degree, because industry can
adapt almost every known material TO
some use. A few years ago, who
would have thought Of making fibre
silk out Of wood pulp?~ But if the
shark has so much economic utility,
it is strange that in the southern wat
ers sharks are menace to human be-
ings, the catching of them has not
developed into big business.

other without, thyroid, by the time the
ordinary one has produced 256 off
spring, the stimulated one will have
produced 4,096.
"Gudersnatsch, a German, had
meanwhile discovered that feeding
frog-tadpoles on thyroid caused them
to turn into frogs long before their
proper time, and his work was taken
up and extended by Swinglee in Amer
lea. Even if the tadpoles have not
yet formed legs when thyroid feeding
begins, the effect of the new diet is to
make them stop growing, to sprout
fore and hind legs, to absorb their
gills and tails, and to turn into minia-
ture froglets. By this means, frogs
no bigger than an ordinary fly, and
therefore much smaller than any ex-
listing in nature, have been produced
one is tempted to say manufactured.
"On the chemical side, Kendall has
taken the great forward step of isolat-
ing substance from the thyroid which
can be regarded as the essential
principle Of the gland so far as it's
effects on growth and rapidity Of vital
processes are concerned. This SUBJ
stance has been named thyrxin, and
during the last year Kendall succeed
ed first in Analysing it, then in manu-
featuring it artifcially. Thyroxin is
stated to have a remarkable power of
accelerating metabolism, under which
term biology sums up the main chem
ical activities of the living organism"
The work which has been done at
Oxford by Julian Huxley consists in
showing that an aquatic amphibian,
the Mexican axoltol, which normally
grows up in an undeveloped, tadpole
like form, with gills and fin to its
tail, can be turned at will apparently
at any stage of it's history, into
salamanderlike creature, living on
land and breathing by lungs, which
was at first supposed to be totally a
different animal. To quote further:
Enough has, l hope, been said to
show that we are probably on the
verage of discovering how to turn on
and eff this switch which controls both
the rate end the form of animal
growth. We are still in the dark
about a great many points. The
most important, perhaps, is whether
the speeding up of vital processes
will cause a proportionate decrease in
the natural span of life"

viii some day, when he has got it out
of his head that Mexico is nation
entirely inhabited by murderers, find
that there are artistic treasures just
as worth while only little way across
the Rio Grande. There are hundred
great churches and cathedrals more
beautiful than any yet dreamed of in
his own country; there are pyramids
that rival Cheops and basereliefs as
striking as anything Nineveh could
show; above all, for those in search
are dozen handicrafts, the products
whereof would drive collectors mad
with rapture if they were bought in
Naples or Ispahan. The blanket SER
apes worn by the men are familiar,
chiefly through machinemade imi-
tations; less so the rebosos worn by
the women; of special interest as
showing the blending of East and
West is the native pottery, as for ex-
ample, the beautiful Talavera and
Mudejar ware. Although the intro
duction of this is usually ascribed to
the Dominican monks, its Spanish or
Arabic influence is, in actual fact,

examples are still preserved in the
