,yachet, IT remained for us only to
amply that principle TO human be-
ings. The white blood corpuscles
OF our human organism are nothing
but infusoria. If their life can be
nroionged. doubled as we have seen
when they are living in an infusion,
WHY cannot the same result be OBJ
tanned when they form a vital part
of our blood. The Leucocytis or
white blood corpuscles. are our very
life blood. They are the arbiters Of
youth and age. If we can keep them
young and vigorous, we ourselves
can laugh at advancing age, because
we have conquered it."
DR.. Vachet cited as an example
the case of Monsieur L. NJ. for
twenty-five years secretary OF the
Paris Municipal Council, who, at the
age OF fifty-fve, was fast losing all
interest in life. He was suffering
from arterio-sclerosis and nephritis.
After a series of intravenal injec-
tons of blood supplied by a healthy,
normal young person, Mon. NJ. be-
gan to show signs of renewed vigor
His health improved rapidly Ac-
cording to DIR. Vachet, he actually
threw off twenty-five Of his fifty
FIVE years.
"The only obscure point so far"
added DR.. Vachet, 'is the determi-
nation Of the exact amount OF new
blood which It is advisable TO use

THE TWO-PLATOON

There are two reasons for advocat- inr the granting of the two platoon; there is one reason for opposing it, In considering the advisahility of estah- fishing the system, care should he talk en that no plan Is advocated that VIII make negligible either Of the two req sons for the system. The one objec- ton, which is its cost, cannot he nulll- fled. The system will cost money. It ,s the belief of those who seek to have the two platoon plan adopted, that the benefits will overbalance the cost.
 Itis urged that the plan should be adopted first because 1t would grant Justice to the flremen, and second be- cause it would increase the efficiency of the department If any scheme Is decided upon which would nullify either of these advantages. certainly the plan should be dropped
 First, as to benefting the fireman.
 
 tunity for time at home, would mean much to them. would increase their efficiency. There is talk, however, or ten per cent cuts in pay. It should be clearly ascertained, before this ad- vantage in the plan is set on the "pro" side of the ledger that the fire men want the better hours, bringing reduced pay. rather than the present hours at present pay, In regard to eficiency it has been suggested that there be only three men in com- pany instead of four. This 1t would seem, would not increase efficiency. even though those three men. rested because Of the better hours, would be more efficient than they would be un- der the regime of longer hours Ger tainly three rested men would not be more efficient than four men, even though the latter should not have had their hours off Increased efficiency should not be placed on the pro side of the balance sheet if there are to be three instead of four men on duty.
 These are the two advantages which are set against the cost. We be- Heve that if the firemen desire the change, involving reduced pay if it is found necessary, and If there is no re- ducing the number of men in each company, the benefits of the plan out weigh the disadvantage covered by the item cost"
 But care should be taken before the wo-platoon plan is adopted, that these matters are looked into in de- tail, after the plan has been decided upon and before it has been establish ed in the city. No matter how small the cost of the system it should not be adopted unless the 1remen want it and unless it will bring increased fire protection.

Became Editor at r..

Niscount Northcliffe, the son of an Irish barrister, became an editor at l years, owner and publisher of the London Times and Daily Mail, the noulder Of public opinion, man of powerful influence in the making and unmaking of British cabinets and, who with David Lloyd George, con- tributed in great measure to arous- ing England to more vigorous action in the war, He was created Baron of the Isle of Thanet in 1905 and made a viscount in 1917 after he had served with distinction as head of the British mission to the United States to consolidate British interests here during the war
 Uncovered War Scandal
 To Niscount Northcliffe is ascrbed the arousing of the British public to a knowledge of the fact that the British army in France was insuffi- shells. that British guns on the French front were short of ammuni- tion and that Lord Kitchener. then secretary of state for war, was send Ting the British gunners shrapnel while Sir John French, as command CT, was appealing for the same kind of high explosives that Germany was hurling over the lines in vast quan- titles.
 This exposure has been character ized as one of the outstanding jour nalistic feats of the war. Ii resulted in the appointment of David Lloyd George as the first British minister of munitions and put him on the road to become prime minister.
 Opposed Censorship.
 Owing, it Is said, to the rigid cen- sorship which the then Baron North cliffe bitterly assailed, the British people knew little about the conduct of the war at that time. They were told of the victories and advances, but it is claimed that the disasters and defeats were not fully revealed. Official England is said to have known for months that the wrong kind Of shells were being Furnished. Lord Northcliffe knew these condi- tons because he had visited the front on several occasions He sent the military correspondent of the Lon don Times, Colonel Repinston. to France. and Repington sent and the Times published a despatch exposing the situation and attributing the failure of military operations and heavy casualty lists to a dehciency in shells.

MINE MULES SIGHT

There seems to be some surprise over the fact, emphasized since many of the coal mines closed down last spring and the mine mules were brought to the surface of the earth for the first time in many years, that such mules retain their sight even though they have not lived in the sunlight for many years,
 There is good reason for this state of affairs and, while the retaining of his sight by the mine mule is not perhaps the most important matter in the. ~.HeHld.-. it suggests interesting thoughts.
 The mine mus begins life above ground. He has his sight at birth and there is little reason why he should lose it through years of re- maining underground than there is that man. working underground or by electricity all his life, should lose his sight or have it impaired, More over there is much less reason for the mule being born with impaired sight, derground human worker to have weak eyes at birth, In the case of man A child of weak-eyed father inherits perhaps, a tendency to weakness of vision, But the mup Is the last of his race. The mule, keen or weak of sight, does not propagate. Thus, there fore, the matter of heredity is elimin- ated. Every mule, as far as sight is concerned, starts life with chances equal to those of every other mule, and that is all there is to it.
 But when the situation of man is considered, the question arises immed- lately what effect upon the sight of the coming generations will the in- creasing use of electricity and of the world beneath the ground have? When one passes through the city of New York, for instance, coming from Washington D. C.,and crosses the city "a considerable distance-stopping to get a hair cut and shave, to do ones shopping, to eat a meal, to buy the daily paper and do the many other things a traveller is apt to do, and then takes the train for that great city of New Britain, Connecticut, without having seen the light of the sun for a moment, one realizes that there are thousands of workers who are passing most of their lives beneath ground. What effect will heredity have upon their children, if these men and won- en remain faithful to their jobs?
 This underground work is but one example of the change changing and changed conditions of the world today may make on the men and women of the future. One wonders and surmises and then one comes to the conclu- sion that wondering had better cease. One looks out of the window at the sunlight or rain and feels pretty well satisfied that his work, unlike that of the mule, is not underground.
