Professor Bcnsley. of Chicago's uni
vcrsity. has succeeded in destroying
and then restoring the pancrcas Of q
rabbit.
Diabetes has been successfully
fought, recently, by the use of insu.

lizards grow new tail, hopes tG
fight diabetes in a new way.
All this will shock and disturb
those who believe that there is nc
such thing as disease. and that all

child should ever hear anything about
evolution and in consequence lis,

For instance, when prohibition
went into the constitution, many tina,
owned vineyards for producing wine
in California. tore up their vines
and planted other things.
They were then selling their grapes
for $50 to $50 ton. If they got ,
