SCIENTISTS SEEK TOXIN
 TO FIGHT WEAKNESS
seeking For New Vaccine in United States, Italy and the United
 Kingdom

London, Jan. 15.-Scientists having failed to find the elixir of life or the fountain of youth are now seeking the next best thing-a vaccine that will do away with weariness and en- able person to go through all forms of exertion without fatigue. The search. according to Sir Robert Arm strong-Jones, is going on in the United States, italy and the United Kingdom.
 Grille and Cannon are leading the movement in America and Mosso in Italy. he said. They are experiment. ing with tired animals. They are bas- ing their experiments son the medical fact that then uman body invariably creates it's own anti-toXins when poi son enters the blood. Even if the fatigue lighting vaccine is found ii still will be necessary for man to sleep. said Sir Robert. Indeed, the aleriation would be conducive to slumbcr.
 Pending the discovery of the toxin various methods to avoid that tired feeling are being advocated. One is the use of salt in solution as a beverage. Experiments upon miners have shown that their efficiency is in creased 20 per cent by the daily use Of salt. a recent convention in London was informed by Professor k. Neville Moss.
 Laborious work in a hot, dry tenn perature. Professor Moss explained, causes the worker to perspire freely and leads him to drinking large quan- titles of water. This, said Professor Moss, produces cramps, fatigue and clogging of the kidneys.
 To prevent water poisoning, miners undergoing the teSs in this country were given solution of salt in water to balance the loss of salt by perspira- tion. As result the miners dug more coal, their vigor was maintained throughout the day, they were no longer bothered with cramps and they slept more soundly.
 Professor Moss said tho best solu- ton of salt to use is ono containing 60 per cent sodium chloride and 40 per cent potassium chloride.

GERMANS WOULD NOT
 MISS GROVER BERGDOLL
Officials and Representatives of Gov. ernment Would Breathe Sigh of
 Relief if Draft Dodger left

i @ Mosbaeh, Baden, Jan. 15.-To sev. eral Of their acquaintances, some oi the German government officials as
 well as representatives of the state of Baden have intimatcd that Berlin would breathe at least slight sigh
 of relief if Grover Cleveland Bersdoll
 would find it convenient to pack his
 trunk and move somewhere beyond
 the boundary lines of Germany. Berg
 doll, under sentence by United
 States army court-maritial to five years imprisonment for draft evasion
 during the war, lives at his uncle's
 hotel in Eberbach, Baden, about 20 miles from here, where he took up residence nearly three years ago when he escaped from America.
 Bergdoll, who appeared recently ns principal witness for the state in tho trial of Corliss H. Griffis, of Hamil- ton, Ohio. who was accused of having violated German laws in an attempt to secret Bergdoll out of the coun- try, at one time considered applying for German citizenship, but no formal application was ever made. Bergdoll's IflduNtS III All'TlCd, IL IS sHlu, du- vised against any such procedure on the ground that it would complicate the situation, and might give United States government officials an addi- tional lever to hold onto Bergdolfs Philadelphia property which was seized after his escape.
 The status of Bergdol in Germany, according to Berlin foreign office rep- resentatives at the trial. Is that of any other foreign political offender and regular in every respect, and on this account he is entitled to certain protection under the German laws. Germany has no treaty with any of the powers which would provide for the exchange of political offenders. IL was pointed out by the foreign of- fec representative that soon after the outbreak Of war in 1914, many Germans desiring to escape military service. fled to Switzerland, Sweden. and other nearby countries. and that Germany has never made any en- deavor to have them returned.
