OLDEST u. S.
SALOON MUST
I OBEY DRY LAW
All Attempts of.NeW Orleans
AbSinthe House to Evade
Statutes Fail.
BY VIM. E. NEELY


NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 21.-At
the corner OF Bourbon and Bien-
vile ST., in the historic Vieux Care
of New Orleans, stands Americas
oldest saloon, weather-worn and
awaiting conversion into cabaret,
antique shop or a grocery store.
The two-story brick building is
known as the ''Old Absinthe House"
and has reached the age of 145
years.
Surrounded by numerous antique
shops, studios, cabaretS and other
small shops such as compose most
of the business efforts of the old
French quarter, the Old AbSinthe
House remained true to tradition
until the Eighteenth Amendment
shattered its doors--so far as the
sale of its renowned product was
concerned.
Several times since the advent of
the VolStead amendment the old
place blossomed forth in an effort to
regain it's once famous reputation,
but each time it has failed dismally.
The last effort resulted in an
unannounced call of a squadron of
Uncle Sans dry SleuthS and the
place soon was made the victim
of paddock.
1t recently was released after a
years subServience to the paddock,
but since then no one has been

with all due respect to DR..
Steinach and DR.. Voronoff for their
investigative work in this field" says
DR.. Barker, my observations have
led me to the conviction that, to
put it in common parlance, the
game is not worth the candle since
the effects in the majority of cases,
do not extend beyond a few weeks.
Anyway, if by the time men and
women around so or so years have
not yet learned that every period
of life is invaluable for its own
sake, and that it has it own mean
ings, joys, interests and RESPONSE
bilitieS, they have given evidence
that they are not capable of learn
ing one of the greatest lessons of
human life"
DR.. Barker, writing in the cur
rent issue of the American Maya
zine, added that despite his feel
ings concerning attempts to restire
youth and beauty, through the uAo
of glands, he has the highest adj
miration and enthusiasm for the
experimental and clinical work per-
formed by Stomach, Coronoff and
other scientists.

INDIAN BIRTHS FOUND
TO EQUAL SETTLERS
Rate of Present Family Growth
Compared With Colonial

BIZ Science Serptce
NEW YORK, June 14.-The rate
at which babies are added to Indian
families has been compared with the
growth of families of colonial women
in America, S. B. de Aberle of Yale
University, reported to the Eugenics
Research Association and the Amer
lean Eugenics Society in joint ses-
sion here today.
Birth records for the last twenty
nine years for a typical Indian vii
lage were collected by De Aberle
The usual interval between birtha
was twenty-three months, he re-
ported, according to the records of
Indian children who lived long
enough to be christened, and whose
existence and identity could thus be
checked. The christening ceremony
occurs within ten days after birth.
AS the age of the mother in
creased, the interval between new
babies became longer, he found.
1t is significant that two entirely
distinct races, living in totally diff
ferent conditions should show these
sinailarities in the rate of family
growth, he pointed out.

Let Emil
Little Miss Muffet All
Wrong in Her Opinion
of Spiders.
BY DAN NJ. KIDNEY

IL LIZ N1SO NUT I = ulUIl I
Il know her spiders.
If she had, instead Of dashing
away madly she would have
slipped Mr.. Spider a sip Of her
curds and whey.
Thus the soundness of another
nursery rhyme is called into ques-
ton. The questioner is State En-
tomologist Frank Wallace, who
refers to spiders as the friend OF
man and pleads that they be
treated as such.
THE flercest looking spider is
just a kind friend in disguise, "
says Wallace, in criticism of Miss
Muffet's conduct. Like people,
spiders never should be judged by
their looks.
Crushing the tiniest Aranedian
(big scientific word for spider) Is
to destroy a comrade in man.
kinds combat against enemy in
sects, germ-carrying flies and the
like"
EVEN If they 90 prefer cobwebs
II in their homes, spiders are
honest citizens and good neigh
bors, he points out. They never
fight, unless attacked, and a per-
son might have several of them
crawl about his person without
getting a single bite, unless. Of
course. he got sore and tried to
shoe them off.
After such inhospitable treat
ment. a spider might become irate
and bite a bit. But even a biting
spider can be defended, Wallace
declares.
Il doubt if anyone in Indiana,
or all North America, ever died
from a mere spider bite" he con-
tends. Infection of some sort
might have set in the wound. but
the spiders venom never proved
fatal.
Most spider bites cause only a
little local sting, like that Of a
mosquito. The most vicious OF
them here in Indiana couldn't
possibly Go more harm than a
bee"
The worst offender is a big
black spider called the BLACK
Widow" 1t is found in southern
Indiana, beneath old stumps and
in similar hiding places.

+ ARGE yellow bodied spiders,
~ which parents often point TO
as treacherous in warning chill
dren away, really are as harmless
as so many yellow nasturtiums.
That matter of the spider and
the fly and the parlor scene also
is upheld by Wallace, who takes
the affirmative on the question
Resolved, That the spider should
have invited the fly into her par
Tor having homicidal intentions.
Every spider that lures a fly
into the meshes of her web is do
ing us a favor" the State ento-
mologist asserts. Death is the best
thing that can happen to flies, so
far as mankind is concerned.
"They are the disease carriers
and more persons suffer and die
in one year from the tiny germs
that flies transport than are in
fected by spider bites in a CEN
fury"
