 A man has entered the bungalow. He is Rose O'Neilrs third husband Captain Jean Gallenne of the French army, a World War veteran and a Paris art student.
 A few years ago Rose O'Neill re- tired to Bonnie Brook, amid dense forests of the Ozarks. and said she never again would associate with men.
 The secret of her marraige about a month ago in New York has just leaked out. She met Captain Gal lenne in France, where she had gone to study.

It was in her mountain bungalow that Miss O'NeilI began drawing sketches of little imaginative babies. with heads like inverted turnips.
 Eastern magazines began publish ing the sketches and her stories about the little people. whom she named 'Kewpies."
 Soon her royalties from publica- tions and doll makers began to run up to $40,00 a year.
 Miss O'Neill calls her Kewpie draw ings play. Her real work, she points out, are her stories and her works of art. She has had four paintings ac- cepted at the Paris salon.
 The O'Nein home-Bonnie Brook virtually is inaccessible to the out side world. There is no telephone or telegraph service into that remote mountain district and residents go long distances to get mail-those few who ever get any mail.

THE BUTTERFLY
is NOT USELESS
SERUM FROM LARVAE MAY
PROVE TO BE CURE FOR
ct. B." SCIENTIST SAYS.

PARIS.-That the beautiful but
terhy may be the deliverer of man
kind from the scourge of tuberculo-
sis is the claim of French bactefi-
ologist, Metalnikow, in report OF
his Investigations, which he has just
presented to the Pasteur institute.
His researches have not yet been
carried far enough to make any
definite conclusion, but he declares
that he believes himself to be on the
track of a very important discovery
and has asked the help of other
scientists in study along the lines
he has begun. For some time M.
Metalinkow has been experimenting
on the larvae Of butterflies and
moths, and he has discovered that
they have the power to destroy all
of the most dangerous known bacil-
Ii. He innoculated them with diph-
liberia, tetanus and tuberculosis and
discovered that however heavy the
dose the bacilli didn't live more
than few days in the larvae, which
seemed to suffer in no way in health.
The bacillus of Koch, for example,
which lives III the body OF man tol
years, was annihilated in the body
of the larvae in two or three days.
In an interview NJ. Metalnikow
said
Il have experimental on the
bodies with thousands OF bacllll,
and am convinced that | am on the
track of a solution. The grubs evil
daD+1, nCcCaCC diUeCtive i11iCeS which
bestow pathogenic microbes, and
what we have to do next is to iso-
late these juices
The vitality OF the larvae, the
scientist declares, is enormous, and
he has not been able to find any
bacillus which can obtain hold on
its body. Now he is endeavoring to
isolate a serum of the butterfly
grubs, with which he hopes to cure
the world of tuberculosis.

CLERKS WORK AS NINE
STORY OFFICE is MOVED
EVEN SIDEWALKS AND BASE
MENT ARE TRANSPORTED.
CUSTOMERS COME AND GO.

PITTSBURG Pa.-While hun
dreds Of clerks worked at their desks
and scores OF customers passed IN and
out of d big hardware store on the
ground floor a nine-tory office build
ing weighing 5000 tons was moved a
distance of seventy-hve feet without
the interruption OF so much as a min
utes work by any one. Twelve la
borers performed the task, which IS
pronounced an engineering teat never
before attempted.
In addition to the building the side
walks fronting on Wood street and
Second avenue, the basement Of the
building, including the big engine and
boilers, all functioning properly, went
along with the building, while the
hardware business overhead was unin-
terrupted
The building is 80 by 20 feet and
about one hundred feet i'll height.
Underground rails, 120 Of them, made
the tracks on which the structure was
moved.
1t cost the owners about eighty
thousand dollars to move the building,
but it would have cost $275,000 to
tear the building down and build a
new one.
The technique was simple. The move
was caused by the widening Of Sec
ond avenue to an eighty-foot boule-
ward. Engineers lifted the whole build
ing on 1900 jacks. They raised it eigh-
teen inches, sidewalks and all, after
they had cut off the steel columns i'm
bedded in the concrete foundation.
Meantime they had built up an elab-
crate system of wooden timber and
I-beams on which the jacks rested.
Then they inserted row on row OF
ninety-pound railroad rails on top of
heavy timbers, and on these rails laid
800 steel rollers, about three inches in
diameter. These rollers acted as wheels
between the building and the concrete
floor. Jacks were placed against the
concrete cellar wall along Second ave
nue., under the curbstone. These were
laid horizontally, so that when operat-
ed they would push the building north
ward toward Third avenue.
AS the building slowly was pushed
forward the iron roller that was re-
leased on the south side of each set
of rails was carried forward and re-
inserted under the north side OF the
huge structure so { 70 make a con-
tinuouS line of rollers.

Swept by Gambling
Orgy; $2,OOO,OOO, 900 Is
Won During the Year
Federal Investigation Shows That the
United States Still Clings to
Wasteful Habits.

Nearly $2,O00,000,000 changed hands
this year as result Of the gambling
mania, according to estimates made in
Washington on the basis of informa-
ton reaching government officials
through official and unofficial chan
nelS.
Treasury department officials are
deeply concerned over the situation,
which indicates, they say, that the
United States is still clinging to waste
full and extravagant habits that grew
up since the war.
The situation has been brought to
the attention of Secretary of the Treas
ury Houston. Director William Ma
Their Lewis, of the savings division,
now is considering whether an appeal
to the public through ministers and
civic societies would be effective.
Gambling at cards and betting at
the races has reached a frenzy never
before equaled," he said. Thousands
appear to be engaged in it in one form
or another, either as betting commits
sioners or betters. 1t is true that
money changing hands through games
of chance does not represent economic
waste. But seldom are winnings put
to any useful economic purpose. The
government, of course, is powerless
to act to check the mania except
through a moral appeal.
Nearly $1,000, 100000 was won at
poker and other card games this year,
it was estimated. Tax receipts on sales
of playing cards now average more
than 100000 a year This indicates
the sale of 100000 packs, which
alone cost more than $l5,000,000.
At every race meeting that lasts a
week several million dollars change
hands at the tracks, it is estimated.
This includes no estimate of the ag-
gregate of sums wagered at places dis
tant from the tracks through betting
commissioners operating in all the
larger cities.
