Howard Maxwell LEROY lies UNI
conscious and in a grave condition
at st. Georges Hospital, the re-
suit Of being overcome by one of
his own inventions in poison gas.
Professor LEROY is believed to
have been on the eve of an inn
portant scientific discovery when
overcome while working in his
secret laboratory at the Imperial
College of Science and Technology.
He returned to the laboratory
Saturday night and locked himself
in. When he did not return
home his wife went to the col
lege and through the locked door
of the laboratory heard heavy
breathing.
With the aid Of an attendant
she battered down the door and
found the professor lying on tn.
floor unconscious and bleeding
from the nose. He was removed
Immediately to st. Georges Hos.
pital nearby and oxygen was ad!
ministered but thus far he has not
recovered consciousness.
Although the, work Professe,
LEROY has been doing has been
kept very secret it is understood
that he has been working upor a
powerful poison gas that would
kil insects but would not affect
the human lungs.
Physicians at Loss
Physicians are at a loss to know
how TO combat the professor al.

him.
Professor LEROY was overcome
last spring by a secret gas anu MAS
then restored to health only after
| vigorous fight.
He has done remarkable work with
LeWisite, an odorless and deadly
gas which would have been used
in the world war had it continued
few weeks longer.

Marigolds.

When the white-throated sparrows
whistle goodbye to Summer. and the
meadow lark sings again, for a brief
spell, his sweet. windy call, reminding
us of the glad lyric that he caroled in
Spring, the marigold, last of the gar
den flowers. glows in its gorgeous
Colds and crimsons. the very spirit Of
Autumn itself
TO crush a leaf of marigold between
the fingers and inhale the scent is to
recall all the Autumn bonfires that
you ever smelled, all the clear Octo-
Der skies that ever arched above you.
all the regretful splendor with which
any season ever died.
There is pungent spice about that
odor. q quality at once SO bitter and
SO sweet, that one never knows
whether one likes it or hates It, lust
as one never knows whether to re-
joice or weep when Autumn comes
and goes.
The marisolds are flowers of New
Mexico and old Mexico, and all the
lands fren Mexico southward. where
the climate is dry, to Argentina. 1t
seems strange that they should often
go by such names as african" mari
gold and French" marigod. when
they are so distinctly American. But
much that is American gets little
credit. and the lovely marigold is one
of these. 1t must, though, be admit
ted that the Europeans have done
most for the culture of the narigold.
In fact, it reached Europe as a gar
den flower Just about 100 years after
the discovery of America--long be.
fore such glorious American plants
as the rhododendron were known at
all in the Old World. The zinnia
came to Europe nearly as early, so
that these two gorgeous cousin flow
ers are associated in ones mind not
only because they bloom in the same
seaSon-are the last burst Of glory in
our gardene-buI because they are
distinctly ours. radiant New World
flowers. Americans.
