YOUR HEALTH -
By DR.. r. S.
Copeland

the movements Of the typhoid germs
and causing them TO collect together
in masses. These substances are
called "agg.utinins."
Suppose there were a lot of graz
ing sheep scattered over a field. If
something were thrown into the
pasture causing the sheep TO gather
in one flock. and. instead of moving
about, to huddle together i'm one
mass. this would be like the effect
produced on the typhoid germ by
the substances which develop in the
blood during typhoid fever.
If the typhoid germs are grown in
broth they are individually active
until the agglutinating substances
are added. Then the germs collect
in clumps. as I have said. To a solu-
ton containing typhoid baoil is
added the blood from the patient
suspected of typhoid. IN the blood
of the patient are the agglutinins
and Immediately the dumping takes
place.
The agglutinins are not found in
the very beginning Of typhoid fever
Il takes five or SIX days for them To
develop.
While this is not an invarlable
rule, yet il is pretty safe 10 assume
that typhoid fever may be excluded
II the agglutinins have not formed
after nine or ten days.
The Vidal test is more reliable in
children than in adults. The reason
for Jhis is because the agglutinin'
persist in the blood for months and
even years. on this account there
must remain the doubt as 10 whether
the dumping is due 10 the present
disease. or 10 an attack of typhoid
recovered from a long time ago.
But YOU will see that the ia5ora
tory test taken together with the
symptoms observed By the doctor
will help him TO determine the pres
cnce Of typhoid fever.

A doctor who practiced half
century ago had to depend or the
plainest Of signs. He had few in
struments Of precision" His eve
and ear, his finger tips and his un-
aided judgment had TO be trusted
to make the diagnosis.
Now the doctor has all sorts OF
instruments. The microscope and
test-tube. the ophthalmoscope for
looking into the eye. the electro
cardiograph for recording the hearts
action, the chemical thermometer,
the N-ray. the blood-pressure ap-
paratus-these are some Of his out
MT for diagnosing diseases.
No longer does the doctor depend
on himself alone. He gives his pa
tient the benefit of the study of other
scientists The laboratory is a Won
derful aid to the modern doctor.
We recognize now that the blood
presents pictures which may be read
by the expert. Not only is the color

reach positive and satisfying concIu-
sions regarding the condition of the

FAMOUS WITS OF
HISTORY
THE WAY OSCAR WILDE INTRO
OUCI7D HIMSELF TO AMERICA.

DTrCFD HIMSELF TO AMERICA.
When the steamer bringing Oscar
Wilde from England arrived in New
York there were many representa-
tives OF the press ready and waiting
10 interview the famous poet and
playwright-th author OF Lady
Windermere's Fan" and THE I'M
portance of Being Earnest"
Wilde was very genial and talked
freely 10 reporters on all occasions,
hut particularly on this one-the oc-
casion of his introduction TO the new
world. lie was anxious to make a
good impression and TO assure for
himself a successful lecture tour.
OF course. his every word was lis
tened to eagerly. and the distinguish
ed arrival was i'm good form. His
wit was spontaneous and never fail
ing. II was always bubbling-even
after rough voyage across the At
| lantic.
Wilde's trunks were piled on the
dock. and. as usual with a new ar
rival. he was anxious To get away
from anything that looked like a
ship and go to his hotel. But he had
to wait for his luggage to be in
! spected When the revenue officer
approa Ched him and inquired what
Mr. Wilde had 10 declare. the poet
made the following remark. which
! has been quoted many times, and
which made fine copy for the news
paper men.
wilde said. as he ficked the ashes
| from his ever-Eresent cigaret:
But Oscar Wilde's genius was
very wonderful possession to de-
clare. and with which 10 delight
his audiences and readers. As a con-
/ versa tionalist and companion. Wilde
was stimulating and refreshing. Ac-
| cording TO Mr. Frank Harris, in his
! most interesting book, oscar
Wilde" no man Of his day was as
/ clever as Oscar Wilde. He had the
gift OF speaking in the most humor.
: GUS way. and of playing with words.
Mr. Harris says:
zone night he took up the word
lose at the table. I remember. We
lose our chances he said laughing.
we lose our figures, we even lose
our temper That is our duty 10 our
neiChbor. Frank. but sometimes we
mislay it, don't we?"
Wilde was in great demand s a
! dinner guest II is not surprising.
when he could say such amusing
things in an off-hand manner, as he
did once TO a certain prominent
/ hostess
Wilde was an inveterate smoker
and was miserable If he couldn't
have his cigaret. One evening. at a
large dinner. the ladies. fascinated 10y
Wildes wit and brilliant converse
ton, fingered too long in the dining
room. Wilde wanted his cigaret. and
was anxious for the ladies TO retire
10 the drawing-room so that he could
smoke
Suddenly his hostess glanced at a
! lamp near Wilde The flame had
grown too big. and the shade wa:
starting 10 shoulder. She said:
please. Mr.. wilde. put it out. its
smoking"
Wilde jumped to avert what might
have been serious accident. As nc
reached to turn down the wick, h'
remarked:

Today is the day when all the can

TO the effect that they are confident

candidate only consents TO enter the

so many Of his friends that it must
be an awful blow TO him when he
finally discovers that they undoubt-
