DOCTOR SAYS CITY FOLKS
ARE BECOMING GERM PROOF
Constant Contact Produces I'm
munity, Is Conclusion After
Research Work.

City jewellers are becoming immune
to many diseases because of constant
contact with the germs which produce
them, said DR.. William H. Park, di-
rector of the research laboratories of
the department of health in New York,
in making the observation that SUBJ
ways are an aid to health rather than
detriment. Subway travellers breathe
in so many germs their systems be-
come used to them
Scientific determination of the truth
Of this statement, Doctor Park ex-
planned, resulted from examination of
public school children for diphtheria
germs.
The examination disclosed that many
children had diphtheria germs. Dur
ing the period they carried the germs,
ly, partly due to the anti-toxin and
partly to natural immunization.
Tendency of city jewellers to become
immune was first noticed during the
war. 1t was found at camps that men
from larger cities did not succumb to
epidemics as easily as men from rural
districts. The country dweler is not
stricken by disease so often, but when
he is the disease is more serious in
form Another reason for the city
dweller's resistance to disease is that
country houses are not so well venti-
lated in the winter as city homes.
Immunity, Doctor Park added, is
not found only in the subways, for
every congested portion of a city
breeds the same resistance to disease.
But in the subways, he said, the air is
full of millions of germs which would
produce terrible epidemics If the hui
man body had not learned to assimi-
late them. Strengthening of resistance
tends to reduce the germ vitality, and
the fact that there Is less tuberculosis
now than fifty years ago is partly be-
cause the tuberculosis germs have de-
creased in virulence, Doctor Park said

BEES STING HORSE TO DEATH
Swarm on Backs of Team Until They
Are SPRAYED Off.

The bees made a mistake. They
thought the backs of Chester Patter's
team a good place for their swarm
to settle. And there was no pond in
which the horses and their driver,
Lee Waters, could take refuge.
The swarm came drifting into an
orchard near Rochester, N. Y, where
Walters was narrowing. They ignored
all the apple trees and picked out the
worst possible place. Walters tried
scraping them off by driving under
low branches, but that didn't work
and he tried breaking up the swarm
with pole. That was his mistake.
The bees took up their weapons and
went to war. Walters and the horses
tried to leave the field of battle, but
the bees stayed right with them until
some one thought to get hose. Then
before the bees could be chased away
one horse was stung to death and the
other severely hurt.

TENNIS BALL KILLS HIPPO
Cincinnati Zoo Loses Largest Speci-

Cincinnati Zoo Loses Largest Speci
men in United States.
The person who threw the tennis
ball into the cage of Zeekoe, gigantic
ippopotamus at the Cincinnati zoo,
aused the death of that animal, ia
nous as the largest in captivity In
america.
The tennis ball was found wedged
n the animals stomach, where, I'm
lble to pass further through the mar
pw opening, it formed an obstruc-
ion, which resulted in Zeekoe's death
after four days of suffering.
The animal, which weighed about
TWO tons and half, was valued at S.
400, but was considered as being worth
many times that sum as an attraction
1t the 200.
Zeekoe's life was imperiled on a pre-
vious occasion by some thoughtless
visitor permitting him to swallow
womans mesh handbag.
In addition to the tennis ball
number of pennies were also revealed
in the stomach.

Scots Keep Relics of
Queen Mary at Home

London.-Scotland has won her fight
to keep the intimate relics of Mary,
Queen of Scots from going to America
or other foreign countries and has
succeeded in buying most of them for
herself.
The sale was held under exciting
circumstances. Scores of patriotic
Scotsmen, aroused over the danger of
the precious relics forever leaving
British soil, crowded into the little
room.
diamond and pearl pendant given
to the queen at the time Of her mar
riage to the dauphin of France was
the only one of the relics which went
to America. The company paid $1,000
for il.
While the entire sale brought S45,-
coo, the Scots committee was more
than satisfied because It obtained
those relics which for all Scotsmen
have the greatest sentimental value.

GLAND SURGERY To MAKE
SHEEP GROW LONGER WOOL
University Professor Expects
Experiments to Succeed.

Philadelphia.-It may be possible tc
obtain sheep with wool half yard
long by means of gland transplanta
ton, according to DR.. William J. Lentz
professor of anatomy in the Univer-
sity of Pennsylvania veterinary
school.
'Of course it's too early to judge
by means Of gland transplanting in
sheep" Doctor Lentz said: "Gland
surgery, however, is just in its infan-
cy and 1t is not possible to predict
what wonderful things may be accom-
plished.
Heretofore desirable lengths of
wool have been attained only by
sheep raisers would welcome any new
method to obtain better product"
The promise of long-wool sheep was
made recently by DR.. Serge Voronoff,
the monkey gland" surgeon, who has
been conducting a series of new ex-
periments in glandular transplanting.
He has requested the central wool
committee of France to give him 70
animals to demonstrate the truth of
his theory.
Doctor Voronoff says he will trans
plant the essential glands from % of
the sheep to the remaining so. The
wool of the latter group will grow
longer, he said. When these repro
duce, their descendants also will have
longer wool, he believes.

ADVENTUREO OF
THE TWINS
BY Olive Roberts Barton

"The first person / wish you would
look for" said King Snookums to the
Twins, els my lord high chancellor.
His name is Codger. Mister Lord
High Chancellor Codger. Like the
rest of my silly subjects. he got the
craze for riding lightning bugs. And
now he's plumb disappeared. We
can't find him anywhere in Pee Wee
Land. And need him sadly as
have to make new law and need
him to write, it out for me-"
ooh, we'll find him, never fear"
comforted Nancy "Can you tell us
anything about him that might help?"
King Snookums pushed his crown
from one side to the other and push
ed it back again.
"Nothing much!" he said. GAIL
that l know is that he had sweet
tooth in his head. No! Two sweet
teeth, or perhaps three. greatly

go anywhere, and we'll hunt in all
the kitchens and pantries, and cake
boxes and pastry shops and candy
stores"
Away they went then and It wasn't
two minutes till they came to Mrs.
Thingumadadger's house.
Mrs. Thingumadadger had been
baking. Anyone could in four blocks
tell that. Such smell you never
smelled.
So the Twins went straight for her
pantry shelf.
And there stood. a large cake with
white icing and a lump in the mid
die!
"Help! Help!" the lump was CALL
ing and moving ever SO little. "The
icing had got hard and can't get
out! Help!"
Sure enough, it was the lord high
chancellor of Pee Wee Land.
The Twins got him out of that and
hustled him home in a jiffy.

WARREN G.. HARDING

President Warren G.. Harding is
dead and Nation mourns.
Just at time whe1 his Country
men were treasured that his illness
would soon pass and that he would
again step forth, in all his vigor, to
carry on during these days of recon-
struction, his voice is stilled and his
hand stayed by the Angel of Death
The loss to America is irreparable
because he was a great man and a
great Executive 1t did not fall to his
lot to be the head Of the Nation dur
ing the troublous days of war, but
to him probably had been entrusted
a more difficult task-that Of plac-
ing his Country on peacetime basis
following the most terrible conflict in
the history Of the World.
With full realization of the re-
sponsibility he accepted the call of
people to service. With calm and
sound judgment, with an abiding
he undertook to point the path along
which America must tread if she was
to enjoy the fruition of her hopes.
The story of how we'll he buildcd
must be left to history, but it is GER
tain that history will accord him a
high place among American Pres
idcnts.
His work was only begun. The
foundation, however, had been laid
with care, and upon that foundation,
had his life been spared, he would
have placed his achievements in 4
permanent structure. This work must
now be left to others, but <it will be
easier because of his foresight, his
optimism, his counsel.
His death is the penalty he has
paid for his devotion to duty and his
love for his Country. But few know
how hard he has worked, what APP
plication he has been compelled to
give to the great problems that were
before him. The trip to Alaska which
has ended so tragically weakened
his already none too rugged consti-
tuition to point where it could not
withstand disease.
He died in service. If he could
have chosen the manner of his pass
ing, that would have been the way
he would have desired to go.
Warren G. Harding, the man, is
dead, but Warren G. Harding lives in
memory, and that memory will con-
tinue to live in the minds and hearts
of the American beople.-Fargo
Forum.
