The presence of this trouble in q
family is a matter of great concern.
1 have no doubt that research will
find it cause and / hope it may be
a removable cause. At present, how
ever, we must depend on general
measures for its prevention and
treatment. Everything which builds
up the body and vigor is to be adj
vised.
Massage and electricity are the
classical remedial measures. Intel
ligently and persistently applied,
they do good.

they died because of climatic changes; that their proper food vanished. or that man slew them must all be abandoned. Dr. Stauf- fer declares. r..
 At least some of these creatures lived into post-glacial times when the climate was much what 1t is now. and all could stand tempera- lures even colder than those of the modern age," says Dr. Stauffer. In the stomach of a mammoth found froken In Siberia. where he had died. was a meal of vegetation such as still grows. He was the same type of animal that lived In North America. Primitive man lived when these creatures did. but with his small numbers and crude weapons, he stood as much In dan ger of them as they did of him. He did not slaughter them as his suc- cessors did the bison.
 ''The only modern parallel for such a disappearance in North America Is that of the passenger pigeons. Man slaughtered these by the million. but 1t has never been established that this carnage alone caused their final extinction."

Dublin, Jan 12.-Dublin has been the last city of Europe to adopt the taxi for general street use. When the automobiles first arrived, a tire company offered 10 have a ndmber of the Dublin iarveys trained in their use, but the opposition of the Jaunting Car Drivers association proved effective, and the offer was declined. Taxis for hire, of course, have existed, but could only be gotten by telephoning the garage. There was also a minimum fare, whatever the distance, of SIPS!

RECORD FACES OF
 PROMINENT SONS
Compiling Photographs Of Men
 and Women in All Fields

London, Jan. ia. -- Tho National Portrait Gallery is compiling photo graphs of distinguished men and women In all fields of British life. Already 2,o00 of the great and near great have posed for this national collection, which is to go into the gallerys archives,
 Very few Of the faces in inc col lection are feminine, This Is not en- tircly due to the fact that women Of prominence outside the domestic sphere are rarcr than men; it ia partly because -- well, one knows how women are about their photo- graphs. It is an exceptional person. man or woman. who becomes dis tnguished before the age of forty. Some of the beauty of women often fades before then so that the trustees of the National Portrait Gallery have not been greatly sur prised when, in several instances, after inviting a distinguished woman to have her picture made for their collection, the lady visited photo- grapher but refused to approve of the result.
 Photographs of more than 150 Of the distinguished contemporaries, as the trustees of the gallery call those whom they invite to sit for their collection, have recently been placed on public exhibition. Most of the faces are old, but some of them, notably John Drinkwater's, the dramatist, are on the sunny sida of midde-age. Only one man in the collection wears a monocle-Austen Chamberlain, the foreign secretary. And even more strange. since these are BritoDs, Is the absence of a pipe.
 The procession of prominent men who have passed before the camera for the National Portrait Gallery collection include besides states men, politicians, generals. admirals and dlvines. leaders in other activi- ties almost all of them, in fact. Ehere are grizzled old ship-build- tng magnates, authors, artists, musicians, doctors of medicine and surgeons, railroad officials. There Is the rugged face of Thomas Hardy, the smiling countenance of T. P. D'Connor. father of the House of Commons, as carefree looking as though, instead of half a dozen sobs, he had not a worry in the world: Winston Churchill, with his food-gates collar and studiously careless bow tie. the Archbishop of Canterbury, with shaggy droop- ing brow almost hiding one of his eyes; the Lord Chancellor with long wig and close-clipped mustache. MT. Asquith looking well the part of a right-honorable gentleman, his parliamentary designation, and scores of other somebodies and al- most somebodies.
 One of these days, it is hoped. the national gallery will set aside a room i'll which to hang photo graphic enlargements. of prominent people; after their death, of course. No canvas can now be hung in the gallery until the subject has been dead ten years or more. Sometimes when a deceased man of promi- hence is honored by selection for the gallery, no adequate photo- graph from which to make g. paint ing can be found. Under the new system of compiling photographs of all distinguished people, this will never happen again. The compila- sion was begun in 1915; 1t will probably go on forever.
