Doctor Preferred Sleep
to Treating Snake Bite

Calcutta.-A Parsi doctor, whose
alleged negligence resulted In the
death of a nine-year-old Hindu boy
from the effects of snake bite, was
severely censured by a Bombay
jury.
Evidence was given to the effect
that the boy was bitten by black
cobra and was taken at night to
the Haffkine institute, Parel, where
q Parsi doctor said 1t was not a
case of snake bite, despite the pro-
tests Of the boys relatives, who
said they had seen the cobra near
the boy and had killed 1t. The doc
tor then asked them why they had
not brought the snake. They prom
Used to do so the next day.
The doctor, 1t is alleged. then
asked the party to go to sleep and
himself set the example. The rela-
tives, however, being frightened,
took the boy to another hospital,
where, although he was attended to
at once, he died.. Medical evidence
showed that death was due to poi.
soning by snake bite.
The jury, returning verdict &C
cordingly, was unanimously of the
opinion that the doctor had been
negligent in the discharge of his
duty and desired that his conduct
should be brought to the notice OF
the government.

IRENE, the crop of potatoes Will
be reasonably uniform in shape
altho they may vary greatly in
size.
"Growers in the irrigated dis
tricts have found it wise to with
hold water early in the season and
give only enough to develop me-
dunn sized plants" Morris says.
"Then as soon as the growth OF
the plant is practically complet-
ed. which is usually indicated by
the production of blossoms, more
frequent water application is Civ.

sThis is done to maintain de-
sirable water content of the sol

it opportunity to continue potato

Hohenzollern Name
Still Frequently Seen

Berlin.-Under the German re-
public regime the Hohenzollerns
have been in the discard nearly
eight years, but the family name
and the names OF it's members are
still the most frequently encoun-
tered Of any in Germany.
They stare at one from the street
corners and shop windows and are
emblazoned on the facades Of In
Vulnerable buildings.
That the German republican mind
is becoming impressed by this fact
is indicated by statistical exhibit

ANCIENT MAPS HOBBY OF
NOTED MANITOBA SAvANT
In His Mammoth Collection Is the
First In Which Discoveries
OF Columbus Appear.

Winnipeg, Man.-Not to be out
done by st. Johns college here,
which boasts of collection of an
cient books, many Of them dating
back to 1900, DIR. Charles N. Bell
claims to have the most complete
set Of ancient maps outside the
walls of q historical museum.
Doctor Bells collection OF maps
has q continent-wide distinction,
one Of Labrador having been con-
suited by authorities In connection
with the privy council hearing In
London concerning the ownership
of that bleak country.
Perhaps the most curious map In
the collection is a reproduction OF
the first map Of the world in which
America is represented. This map,
drafted by the old Spanish cartog-
rapher, Jean de la Cosa, In 15OO,
eight years after Columbus discov-
cred the New world, is remark
able reproduction. 1t is In sec
tons, upon which an attempt was
MADE to represent forests, beasts,
birds, boats, etc., in order that II
might be compendium Of general
description as well as chart OF
distance and locality.
The oldest original map In the
collection is an Ortelius Of 1870,
representing the earth. The ex-
istence Of the north and south con-
tinents Of America was then
known, of course, but photographers
were a little vague about the shape
of South America. In the old Or
telius map it is shaped and tinted
like an orange. Dolphins sport In
mid-Atlantic, with here and there
caravel; all the physical features
are named in Latin.
Coming down the centuries there
are, to mention only few: An
original map illustrating Capt.
John Monck's voyage TO the Hud-
son bay in 1920; a MAP or Gen
eral Carte of the World" drafted
in 1869 and dedicated to King
Charles II; a MAP Of the North
Pole and Parts Adjoining" drawn
In 1880, dedicated to the Earl OF
Plymouth; maps of the Great
Lakes and Michilimackinac forts
1744.

Ancient Clock Governs
All Banks Activities

Asbury PerA n. 1.-THE Mer-
chants National bank here opens
its doors in the morning, regulates
all its activities and closes at night
by a tall, mahogany clock brought
from England 81 years ago, and
acquired by the banks president,
Samuel Reeves, In 1913 for SCI.
Mr.. Reeves said he believed the
timepiece was at least 500 years
old. 1t has no markings to indi-
cate its age and birthplace. The
clock was brought from London by
Isaac Woodland In 1915 to Mon
mouth county, New Jersey.
When Charles Woodland, a de-
scendant, died at the age Of sew
enty, he willed the clock to a neph-
ew, Dare Switchin of Asbury Park.
Switchin owed Mr.. Reeves some
money for some articles worth S21
and after keeping the clock for a
year or SO, decided to turn Ii over
to his creditor in payment.

The knobs do not form with the
first growth of the tubers but
appear late in the life of the plant
when the above named conditions
exist, declares Prof. Morris. The
drought condition may be the re-
suit of a lack of moisture in the
soil or to few days of extremely
warm, dry, windy weather IN
which the plants give off water
faster than the roots can gather
it.
Potato formation, according to
Morris, begins early in the hte
of the growing plant and II the
water supply is kept almost con-
slant in the soil and the weather

nesday evening for Detroit.
Rhea's new position is in the ac-
counting department of the

ly adapted for accounting work
as not only have his office duties
been largely connected with ac-
counting but he has also been do
ing extensive studying in various

His parents are Mr.. and Mrs.
W. T.. Rhea of Bainville. Mr..
Rhea is we'll known in the bust

perience he will make good in his
new location.
Treasurer McFarlan would
make no announcement as to
who will be appointed in Rhea's

any such appointment rests with
the board of county commission
