CNAKES are not so common in
- this country as to be a con-
slant menace to most of us, but they
still constitute a subject of the
greatest interest to Investigators of
the actions of poisons on the human
body.
1t previously was thought, as is
pointed out in a recent discussion of
the subject by investigators in the
Antivenin Institution of America,
that the venoms of different poison
GUS snakes were essentially Identical
in their actions.
This conception was based on the
similarity of the symptoms which
followed snake bite, and of the effect
of various substances on the snake
venoms. The studies were, however,
mostly chemical studies.
Recent Investigations have been
made by the method of the science
of i1nmunology which deals with the
building up of resistance in the body
against various poisons.
Such tests are carried out in two
ways-by animal experimentation
and by the placing together in tubes
of the poisonous substances and of
portions of the blood of animals into

was that the rainbow as crossed with great num-
Der of vertical black lines of various thickness and
ntensities, numbering about 600 in all Fraunhofer
showed that these lines always present and he
named some OF the more conspicuous ones after the
letters of the alphabet.
1t was in 1914 that Fraunhofer discovered the dark
lines in the little rainbow or spectrum to give 1t the
scientific name. But neither FIR aunhofer nor any
of his contemporaries knew their meaning 1t was
not until almost a half century later that these
"Fraunohhofer lines the dark lines then were
called were explained.
In 1859, two German physicists announced the
results Of a series of experiments which not only
cleared up this mystery but laid the foundation for
some of the most important advances which modern
scientists have made in the realm Of astronomy
physics and chemistry.
Robert Bunsen and Gustav Krchoff were the two
scientists,
They showed that when light from a source which
was a solid or liquid gas under high pressure was
passed through prism, the result was continuous
spectrum that is rainbow OF colors from red to
violet.
They showed next that when light from gas
at low temperature was passed through prism that
the result was only few bright lines and that every
chemical substance gave always the same line
combination of lines Thus it was possible to identify
any chemical element by the bright lines in its
spectrum
And finally they showed that when the light from
a source as in the first case passed through Layer
of cooler gases before reaching the prism the result
was a spectrum like that of the sun, continuous
spectrum crossed by black lines
Here, then, the explanation OF the Fraun-
hofer lines.

We are not surprised that Ruth

with 100000, returned to Indian

BaIdheadS Go Up

a ND surely the current musical
4 \ comedies are not supported
wholly by frantic females. Tt is not
for the sake of the feminine fans
that Godiva rides again in Zieg-
fields show or Dorothy Knapp APP
pears diaphanous in an Earl Car
roll production.
My own experience has been that
the girl you take out to dinner
wants to see 1.-THE Wild Duck" or
Hampden's Cyrano. Only after
much persuasion will she compro-
mise on Animal Crackers"
Indeed so stern and unrelenting
is her pursuit of the higher things
that the wings of the Forty-fourth
Street theater are all cIuttered up
with chorus girls reading books.
Back stage last night I found the
works of Tolstoi, AIdous huxley and
only one of these is essentially a
funny fellow.
Women know nothing about act

heartbreaks lie ahead of you.
Nor is the dramatic skill of wom-

displays in private. The New York
theater is knee deep in young wom-
en- Of high talent. There are ten
good actresses for every single ade-
quate actor.
SO poverty stricken is the local
stage in the matter of male per-
formers that when script requires
a character to walk into room and
say Good morning" to his host it
is necessary to import some lad.
from England.
If IRVINE knows any American
actor fit to lace the shoe of Ethel
Barrymore I wish that he would
name him.
But, Of course, he is talking of the
appreciation of acting rather than
the ability to perform. Even so it
seems to me that the women in the
audience clap their hands, and cry
and sit up straight at what appear
to be the proper moments.
Women flock to see and applaud
male stars like Walter Hampden
who have only their art and nothing
of physical grace or charm to de-
ceiVe you
Moreover, ! think that if Ervine
viii examine the critical writings in
the daily journals Of New York he
will find that some of the soundest
and best expressed appraisals Of
current dramatic fare come from
the pen Of women.

Heroic Bus Driver

a t 2 o'clock Monday morning, a
IN San Francisco Seattle bus went
oven an embankment just north of
Redding, Cal, lodged against a tree
and caught fire. The tree saved
the bus from taking fifty-foot
fall, but pinned the driver.
Though facing immediate and
terrible death, that driver never
lost his head, but spent his last few
moments telling passengers how to
extricate themselves, warning res
cuers to keep away and sending a
farewell message to his wife.
That is the kind of spirit that
makes even towards ashamed.

and weakness. To save life it is
necessary to inject enough serum
to neutralize the excess of poison
above this dose.
The large Florida diamond back
and water moccasin seem to eject
much more poison proportionately
than do the ordinary rattlesnakes
and more anti-serum is required for
them.

The Bidding South opens with
no-trump and all pass.
Deciding the PIay-West leads 5
of spades. What card should be
played from Dummy and by De-
clarer?
The Error-The 8 of spades is
played from Dummy and when East
plays a card higher than s Of spades,
Declarer takes with the queen Of
spades.
The Correct Method-Applying
the rule of fourth best, Declarer
knows East holds three spades. The
holdup is necessary to exhaust East
of that suit. Declarer should refuse
to take the first trick
East will continue to play spades
and the king Of spades will force
ace of spades. When Declarer wins
the third trick with queen of spades
all illnesses are taken toward East
and game must be made.

A,--George Jean Nathan said
that an anti ivisectionist
was a woman who strains at a

baby. Animal experimentation
is used to study disease so that
it may be prevented in human
beings. The rate of progress
of medical science is depend
ent largely on the use of ami

PREDICTS A Big.
DE NJ And FOR
CAROLINASPUD
BY AMOS KIRBY
New York Correspondent
For The independent

NEW YORK. May lit looks as
if South Carolina is going to come
into the white potato deal IN great
shape this year. Indications now
point towards the best market that
it has experienced in recent years
and the prospect of good prices has
never been better. The trend OF
events during the last two weeks in
competing growing sections and in
the big consuming markets helps to
cryStalIize that idea in the minds OF
the leading receivers in this market.
It is openly expressed on this
market, that apparently there is
nothing that can stop South Caro-
lima. if not also North Carolina from
making some money on the white
potato deal this year. Judging from
the present trend of events there is
nothing on the horizon that would
indicate a return of conditions that
faced the growers last year.
Drought Hits Florida
A severe drought has hit the
Florida potato belt and their esti-
mated production mas already
shrunk to less than ore nalf of last
year. Reports received on this
market from the HaSting section
would indicate that Florida will be
out of the way before the Caro-
linas are ready to start digging.
Present indications point to a crop
in Florida of only 1000 to 4,50C
cars compared with 1918 cars last
year. They have already moved
about $500 cars, compared with only
400 last year to the same date. AT
this time. it means that the COM
petition of Florida potatoes has
been reduced to the extent of 5000
cars compared with last year. In
other words instead Of Florida hav-
ing over 1000 cars yet to market as
it did last season at this time it has
now only 1000 cars to ship.
1t will be recalled that last yeal
when South Carolina began to dis
potatoes. Florida was still right II
the midst of the deal. The trade
continued to buy Hastings potatoes
in preference to South Carolina
not on account of quality but be-
cause of maturity. This situation
left the South Carolina growers II
dire straits. They saw Florida TAX
ing their market and the price drop
ping lower day by day, which spell
ed ruin for the Carolina grower.
This year it will be different anc
number of factors bear out thl'
contention that cannot be overcome
In the first place there will not b'
the potatoes to be marketed thu

"I wonder how Edenton feelS
about all this publicity it is getting
over the witchcraft doines IN ltS
cotton mill settlement?' asked the
Soda Jerker.
"Edenton is a proud old town, the
Cradle of the Albemarle, the birth
place of a signer of the Declaration
of Independence, repository OF a
chair in which George Washington
sat, holder of honorS for the first
original Tea Party, home of many
proud Sons and Daughters OF the
Revolution and descendants OF orl-
ginal coloniStS; proud of its history
and of it's cultured aristocracy. And
here in the twentieth century we
find EdentonianS praCticing witch
craft, boiling black cats alive to get
witches bones, dealing in love
potions and moving powders, charms
and COMPUTATIONS. 1t must make
Edenton feel abashed to see this
witchcraft stuff exploited by the
daily newspapers throughout the
land"
"I should think So" said the Soda
Jerker: but these followers OF
witchcraft practices in Edenton are
not real EdentonianS; they're just
cotton mill workers." said the Soda
Jerker.

you have ignorance and superstition
