Didn't Haze NerUe to
Cook the Little Pie

A Cleveland housewife who was
entertaining some very special
friends from out Of the city, want
ed to have a dinner that would
linger in their memory for some
time to come. What could be nicer,
she thought, than roast sucking
pig?
Accordingly the little pig was
sent home from the butchers, un-
wrapped and laid on the kitchen
table, where her small son caught
sight of it and burst into tears.
"Don't cook that dear little pig
gie!" he walled, disconsolately.
His mother sent him from the
kitchen and picked the pig up to
carry it across the room.
'In that moment" she reports,
"my courage failed me. There was
something so much like a little
baby about that poor little pig
that set it down in a hurry. 1
realized then and there that I
didn't have the nerve to cook It.
Like my son, I wiped the tears out
of my eyes and put the dear little
lpiggie' out of my mind forever. We
had roast beef for dinner"

tack less severe. Much progress
has also been made toward the pre-
vention of the disease. The pre-
ventive innoculation will confer
immunity on over 80 per cent of
the cases if properly carried out.
Last year large numbers of the
children in Minneapolis were i'm
munized for scarle fever. This
year one out of every AZ children
not innoculated contracted the
disease, while one out of every $40
who were innoculated, developed
the disease. If scarlet fever did
develop after innoculation, the
cases were always light. Vaccina-
ton for scarlet fever is generally
recommended. Sometimes four or
flve lnnoculations are necessary.

Whooping cough is not as fatal
as scarlet fever and diptheria, but
10000 children die of it annually.
The greatest mortality occurs UNI

Hope to Find Bones
of Cardinal Wo!sey

Leicester abbey, whert Cardinal
Wolsey told the abbot he had
"come to lay his bones," is to un-
dergo transformation. For many
years the abbey grounds have been
used as farm, but now they are
to be laid out as gardess and for
recreation, Pierre Van Paassen,
writing in the Atlanta Constitution,
tells us. Wolsey's body was laid in
an unknown grave, and it is
thought that in the excavations
necessary to adapt the grounds to
their new use, some trace of it may
be found, but as there is no record
of an of the cardinals possessions
being buried with him the search
seems likely to end in failure. One
fact about Wolsey is probably not
widely known. When he was at the
height of his power he employed an
Italian sculptor to make a magnifi-
cent sarcophagus beneath which he
should lie. Leicester monks laid
him to rest in plain earth and
Henry VIII sequestrated the sar-
cophagus with the rest of the car
dinal's vast possessions. The sar.
cophagus remained government
property and idle until 1906, when
it was used to cover the body of
Nelson after his remains were
brought from Trafalgar. The man
who said that England expected ev-
cry man to do his duty, and led
them in so doing, rests under the
covering prepared for the man who
was led away and ruined by over
weening ambition.

Where Red Indians
Got Wood for Bo,Us

Medicine Bow, Wyo., and the
Medicine Bow National forest de-
rive their names from the fact that
in early years the Indians came
there from the surrounding terri
tory to make their bows from the
mountain mahogany which grows
in abundance in that vicinity. Here,
too, the Indians found pine trees
of a certain species which grew in
thick stands, straight, tall and
trim. When overcrowded the trees
were small, and the Indians found
them desirable for the poles of
their tepees. From this the tree
gained the name CT lodgepole pine.
Now the lOdgepole pine Is used
primarily for railroad ties in the
western stateS. In the Medicine
Bow National forest it is cut under
government regulation, floated
down stream to the nearest railroad
town and shipped to Laramie for
preservative treatment. Govern
ment supervision insures the per-
petuation Of the supply.

Took Name From, State

While tabasco peppers, so called
because they were grown in the
state Of Tabasco, Mexico, were long
an established product in trade and
regularly exported from Mexico In
the early part Of the Nineteenth
century, no one conceived the idea
of trying to grow this plant in the
United States until 1850. It was
then that Col. Maunsell White OBJ
tanned a few seeds from q Mexican
who lived in Tabasco, and planted
them on his plantation in Louisi-
ana. With proper care and cult
walton, these peppers grew pro-
fusely and before long became of
better quality than those pro-
.duced in Mexico. Because of the
origin of the seeds, White named
the product tabasco, the name by
which It is known today. :.

Chinese Telegraphy

:, The transmission, and receipt of
kilograms in China is not so easy
as in western countries, because the
Chinese language lacks an alphabet
and expresses itself by characters
and signs that represent words. In
consequence, for purposes Of tele-
graphing an exact list has been
made of signs in quantity sufficient
for ordinary correspondence, and to
each enc Of the signs a different
number is given, which Is trans
mitted by the Morse Geographic
system. The code consists of $500
,ciphers, the whole forming a PAM
iphlet Of 40 pages, each one Of
which contains 10 series of 20 char
,acters with its corresponding mum.

Health and Parent Education held
at the ST. Paul Auditorium, March
81, % and 20. Miss Anderson has
prepared a very interesting re-
sumo of an address delivered by
DIR. F. w. Schultz, chief Of Pedia-
tries at the University of Mime
sofa. Her resume is so full of
practical suggestions for the care
of the child that the Herald gladly
publishes synopsis of DR..
Schultz's address herewith:
"The medical profession is con-
stantly seeking for things to pre-
vent disease" said DIR. F. w.
Schultz, chief of Pediatrics, Uni
versity of Minnesota, in a speech
given at the Northwest Conference
for Child Health and Parent Edu-
cation, March 27, 1928. Parts Of
his speech follow:
Infectious diseases have been
and still are great scourges, leav-
ing desolation and misery in their
wakes. Some diseases have been
cut down and practically abolished
by sanitary measures and vaccina-
ton.
"Snlall pox was the most dread
ed disease of the ancients. It
caused more deaths than the COM
bined wars of all times. Today it
is just as deadly and disfguring in
it's virulent forms, but the practice
of vaccination has reduced its pre-
valence. Every person should be
vaccinated for small pox before he
is one year old, again at 6 years,
and again at about IA. If this
vaccination were made compulsory
throughout the world, small pox
could be banished forever.
"There are no established pre-
ventive measures for chicken pox,
measles, or German measles. But
the blood serum of patients recov-
ering from measles, when given to
others exposed will prevent them
from getting the disease. 1t is
expected that a preventive innocu-
lation for measles will soon be de-
veloped.
"Diptheria is a disease which can
be prevented. It is often trans
mitted by carriers who carry the
germs in their Threats but do not
develop the disease themselves. In
the dry state and in light the germs
die quickly. But in moist, dark
places they may live for months.
The best cure for diptheria is an
ti-toxin. Diptheria can be prevent
ed by toxin-anti-toxin, which is
given with hypodernic needle in
three doses, at intervals of one
week. With the extensive use of
toxin-anti-toxin, it is anticipated
that diptheria can be completely
stamped out. Children should be
immunized against the disease be-
fore 6 months and year of age,
because they are most SUSCEPTIBLE to
diptheria between the first and
sixth years of life.
"Scarlet fever is treacherous in
it's complications. The anti-toxlc
serum for a person who has the
disease has proved very valuable.
It neutralizes the poisons formed
by the germs and makes an at

Stamped the Letter

way with her mother to mail let

the post Office, Saralou, who car.
ried the letter, ran to put it in the
box. Her mother, knowing 1t was
unstamped, called to her young
daughter: "Saralou, the letter must
be stamped before you mail It, or
daddy will never get It."
: Saralou looked inquirfngly into
her mothers eyes. Then without
much hesitation, she placed the
letter on the sidewalk, and with
all the wild enthusiasm of a four
lyear-old,f jumped up and down with
both feet upon the letter. Think
ing it had been stamped sufficiently,

most assuring and convincing
tones, "Muvver, stamped It; now

Blacksmith of Grefna
Green Pronounced Myth

Gretna Green's marrying black
smith is the newest sacrifice to his
torical research. Before the Jnsti-
tute of France the report was re-
Gently made, after considerable
delving into original sources, that
this romantic detail in English writ.
ten history, still appearing in ref
erence books, was purely mythical.
Gretna Green, between 1854 and
1856, after England abolished CLAN
destine marriage, was place where
runaway couples could be legally
welded. Living just north of the
border in Scotland, it enabled
clippers to take their VOWS before
any resident of the village-toll-
keeper, ferryman, soldier or snug
gler, But there was no blacksmith.
Checking up the French savaht,
the Manchester Guardian learns
that his discovery is true. Core
spondents obtained from the Oldest
inhabitants Of Gretna Green the
origin of the empty legend: An
artist when commissioned to paint
sign for the dollhouse inn put a
blacksmith in the wedding pic
ture for the sake of symbolism, hop
ing to emphasize the durability of
the link that was being forged. His
symbolism passed into tradition
and so into history.
Doubt is expressed, however,
whether fact can efface the artists
concept. The anvil altar, the

that clasped the hands of bride and
