BEING SHIPPED
e PLAN TO IMMUNIZE ALL SCHOOL
CHILDREN AGAINST
DIPHTHERIA.

With the opening of schools about
two weeks distant the shipment of
diptheria toxin-antitoxin by the Mich
igan Department of Health is in
creasing materially daily. The de-
partment is aiming to have every
school child immunized against diph-
iberia when classes resume and as a
result many demands for toxin-anti-
toxin have reached the state labora-
tory in the past month.
Since the beginning of the year
when the state began to furnish free
toxin antitoxin it is estimated that
more than 10000 doses have been
sent out. Up to July l when the
last figures were compiled 35, 700
doses had been shipped. In that time
1867 cases of diphtheria have been
reported to the department.
The health department recently
recommended immunization of all
school children, pre-school children,
and babies over one year without
administering the Schick test. 1t
was held that the Schick test was
valuable and a good test to determine
a persons immunity, but that inocu-
lation without the test was a quicker
and surer process.
Toxin-antitoxin is used as pro-
phylaxis against diphtheria, its action
taking some time to complete immun-
ization against the disease, but when
completed rendering permanent inn
munity. Antitoxin is administratcd
to persons who have been diagnosed
as having diphtheria or to persons
a diphtheria patient. Antitoxin rem
ders immediate immunity but for
short time only. It's action is tenn
porary.
much Of the prevalence of diph-
liberia is due to negligence" says DR..
DIN, state health commissioner. I'm
der no circumstances should a child
be permitted to go near a case Of
diphtheria. Besides being much more
susceptible to the disease than
adults, children are in greater danger
of death from it than are grown per-
sons who may contract it." Mild
cases in adults may cause fatal cases
in children.
"Have the children immunized be-
fore the school bell calls thousands
Of them together two weeks hence"
says DR.. Olin.

time they were all homeward bound
on the subway train she was pretty
well exhausted. But she felt compen-
stated for her efforts when she reflect
ed how she had been able to help give
these poor shut-in children a glimpse
of clear sky and green fields. With
this agreeable thought she turned to
a little girl sitting beside her and
asked her if she had ever been to

French Women as Judges.

Women as judges are undesirable,
according to the Paris chamber OF
commerce, the Montreal Herald states
The experts of the chamber were
asked to advise parliament regarding
the proposal that women be declared
eligible to all court positions now held
by men, a bill to that effect in the
chamber of deputies being intended
as the first important wedge to
electoral equality. To the great sur
prise of the deputies, many of whom
are noted as suffragists, the chamber
of commerce committee says that such
quality Is undesirable just now, as
apart from the peculiarities of the
feminine temperament, women seldom
are endowed with broad enough
knowledge of juridica1 affairs to war
rant their dealing with delicate ques-
lions of absolute. iustice.

BROUGHT FAME AND WEALTH
Whitney's Invention of the Cotton Gin
Came About Under Somewhat
Peculiar Circumstances.

In the fall of 1892, the year of his
graduation from Yale college, Eli
Whitney, inventor of the cotton gin,
who was born in Westboro, Mass, in
1765, was engaged as a private tutor
in family in Georgia. On his way
there he met Mrs Greene, who was
returning to Savannah from a visit
North. On reaching Georgia he found
that, despite his engagement, another
tutor had been given his place, and he
was stranded, practically penniless.
Mrs. Greene invited the young man to
her home until he could find some
thing to do.
Shortly after Whitney's arrival
party of gentlemen from Augusta, In
the upper country, who had been Off
GERS in the Revolution under General
Greene, were visiting there. The con-
versation turned on the depressed
state of agriculture in the South.
Longstaple cotton had been intro
duced successfully In sea Islands, but
could not be grown inland. Short
staple cotton would grow lnldnu, Out
was Improbable, as there was no
practical means Of separating the cot
ton from the seed. The separation by
hand of one pound of staple was a
days work for one woman.
During the conversation Mrs.
Greene told the visitors that Mr..
Whitney could invent their machine
for them. This incident turned Whit
ney's attention to the subject. He went
to Savannah, obtained small parcel
of raw cotton and set to work. With
the resources the plantation afforded
and such tools as he could contrive,
within few weeks he had developed
the invention and produced his first
model of the cotton gin.
