DRUG TO D|SPEL
FEAR DISCOVERED
Columbia Dean Reveals Find
ings at n. K. Mulford
Co. Dinner
NARCOTIC CALLED "CAAP"

The discovery Of drug known as
"caapi' which apparently has the
power Of banishing fear. was announced
in this city by DR.. II. II. Rusby, dean
Of the College Of Pharmacy OF Columbia
University.
DR.. Rusby spoke last night at din
ner in the Manufacturers Club in honor
Of members of the Mulford biological
expedition. The scientists hunted in
South America for, new drugs.
The pharmacy srflool dean said he has
two pounds of "cnapi," virtually all
there is in this country, but that the
amount is not large enough for expert
mental purposes. A larger shipment is
expected in month or so. he said. and
complete tests will be made.
Chemists who attended the dinner
"caapi' would be to married men re-
turning home late without an excuse.
DIR. Rusby said the drug was found
by DR.. Orland K. White. member of
the expedition.
Its story. as related by DR.. Rusby.
is as follows:
The drug has been used for years. nc-
cording to one or two meagcr but au-
thentic accounts. by the Indians Of
Colombia before going into battle. Ii
is prepared from the roots of a plant.
Preparation Of the drug is marked by
great ceremonial rites. which the eyes
Of women are forbidden to see. The
penalty for q woman to see 1t admins.
tered or to take 1t Is death.
A ceremonial dance accompanied the
drinking Of the drug. When it is given
n convulsive trembling is produced. the
blood leaves the face and pallor snsues.
But after few moments the blood re.
turns to the head and the sort Of cour-
age that would make a cat spit into a
bulldogs face" courses in the blood Of
the drinker.
Another drug that was found is
"mire' and which is expected to have
great therapeutic value. 1t is appar-
emily related TO the tobacco plant. The
bark of the root is used in its prepara-
ton. When taken It paralyzes the
motor centers-the user Of It is un.
able to speak or to walk without stag
sering.
Some hours after It Is taken the user
Is bathed in profuse pcrspiration
which is said to be 30 powerful that 1t
destroys any parasite in the skin.

GIVE COMMANDS RARELY
By Edith Lochridge Reid

In well-ordered household where
the children are properly trained, il
is surprising how few direct COM
mands are necessary.
Such remarks as "Close the door"
"Stop your noise," Don't throw pill
lows" EAT with your fork" and BE
careful of those books" are unneces-
sary because they have been implied
all through the lives Of the children
A baby two vars old has learned the
fundamentals that control actions re-
sulting from these and similar COM
mands.s He has ben taught to close
doors and do it quietly until the ac-
ton is reflex He dosen't need to be
told to stop his noise, because he
has learned that any excessive uproar
has unpleasant consequences. The
very first time he threw pillow he
was shown that it nearly hit the lamp
and it also tore a corner OF the pill
low. Yes, there was reason why
pillows should not be thrown about,
and having this fixed in his mind
he dosen't have to be told every day.
So with dozens of other items in dis
cipline
Our commands resemble the sign
board placed along the highway that
says Dangerous Curve Ahead" The
first time the driver goes over the
road he is controlled entirely by the
wording on the sign. He stops and
reads it and then dives slowly until
he has negotiated the turn. But af-
ter much driving over the same
stretch of road he knows he must
slow up, and clamps on the brakes
without even glancing at the sign.
AS far as he is concerned the sign
could be removed for he dosent need
it.
However, the important point with
mothers is to get the sign up in time
Of course there is some work to MAX
ing signboards. They have to be
carved and outlined and painted, and
afterwards put up securely, but once
established they do their duty.
So it is with our commands. The
first two or three years we prepare
the signboard. And after that the
rules which govern the road are learn
ed so well, that we need not call at
tention any longer to the bumps and
curves and rough spots. The child
rem slow up for these without being
told and without any effort from us.
So we will find in well trained
family, that the direct commands are
few, and because of this fact when
they are given, obedience is almost
assured. But like a powerful ma
chine that we admire because it runs
so smoothly and noiselessly, some
one behind the scenes has been oiling
the wheels, and in this case, SOME
ONE is Mother.

THE WILD LEE LEAGUE

1t is lamentable but true that the
hunting frontiers Of this country are
nearly gone. Very few sections re-
main of which it can be said mo man
has set foot there" Slaughters and
unsportsman like methods are rapidly
driving much of our remaining game
to the wall. Only united effort can
save what is left of our wilderness
and its denizens. Only few more
generations and at the present rate
of destruction, our vanishing hunt-
ing grounds, fishing streams and
forests will be gone forever unless
something is done.
The state Of New York issues close
to 10000 hunting licenses annually to
its residents and the latest figures
from Pennsylvania show that 4o2,-
COO permits, exclusive of nearly 2uoo
licenses to non-residents, have been
sold in that state in one year. ms
means that an army approximately
four times greater than the peace
time military forces Of the nation
yearly goes forth to kill game within
the boundaries Of the state OF Pennsy-
Jyania. Last year it is estlmated
that grand. total Of nearly 5,ooo'ouo
hunting licenses was isued Throughout
the United States.
In view of these figures it is OBJ
vious that present day hunting IS
sort Of outdoor rattle many there
are who go forth, but not all may
draw prizes. Nevertheless, there are
these who even today oppose the en-
actment of game and fish laws and
persistely defy them after they are
playced upon the statute books II
was only few years ago that tne
head game warden of Ohio was re-
fused hotel and lodging house accom-
modations almost everywhere he went
as a result of the contempt in which
both he and his job were held. Today
according to this same man, every
decent citizen is now in effect game
warden. Infraction of the game laws
have been reduced to so low a mini
mum in this state that is it no exag-
geration to say that would-be offend
ers are no longer afraid of the local
game wardens but rather Of their
own neighbors."
The state of Ohio contains one hun
bred ad forty associations of sports
men organized to stimulate the pro-
lection of game and to promote It's
increase. Among these organizations
it is noteworthy that all of them out
side of the large cities are composed
entirely or chiefly of farmers. The
total membership Of these game pro-
tective associations in Ohio is 200,-
600.
The smaller, but more glorious
state of West Virginia, is at the be-
ginning of similar miracle through
the creation of the Wild Life League.
Every citizen with so much as a spark
of interest in the conservation of the
forests, fish, game and other natural
resources of this commonwealth
should join this organization and en-
Enthusiastically support its work.

CATHOLIC ORDERS
BUY PARIS HOUSES
Trying to Regain FoothOld by
Purchases for Converts
and Monastcries.

Special Gable to THE NEW YoEK HERALD.

Paris, March Ii.
Heated debate over the extent OF
Frances relations with the Vatican may
be resumed as a result Of the discovery
that several Catholic orders which were
banished when Church and State were
separated are trying 10 regain foothoid
by buying up entire blocks of apartments
In Paris for conversion into converts
and monasteres. Although the French
Government and Parliament favored the
reappontment OF an Ambassador to the
Vatican, it was with the tacit under
standing that there would be no return
to the old system of dabbling in French
internal affairs, or seeking TO make
France center OF Catholic authority.
With monks and nuns returning en-
masse, however, the Left radicals are
up in arms. declaring that closer super
Vision of Catholic affairs is needed IL
the constitution is not to be thwarted.
Catholics, on the other hand, declare
that the movement is not rerious, and
that the Church as whole has nothing
to do with 1t, purchases of buildings be-
with members of banished orders as
tenants
Although supposedly dissolved. It de-
sclops that the orders have maintained
the nuclei OF their organization in Bel
gitim, III the hope OF recruiting on a
lerge scale in Paris.
