From Tame Bear to Wild? How
Long Does It Take?

How long does it take for a
tame bear to go wild? Residents
Of the village of Seney, Michigan,
are puzzling over this question as
they receive nightly visits from
Ted, a big black bear who knocks
at backdoors for chocolate bars,
cake, doughnuts or any other food
scraps he can get.
Ted and Nellie, his playmate of
last year, were very tame and used
to entertain visitors to Seney when
they were kept in captivity in the
heart of the town. Then Ted
slipped his collar and took to the
woods. The lure Of being the
"playboy Of the forest" is too much
for him by day. He stays in the
woods. But regularly each night
he stalks into town to beg for food
and then he displays the startling
trick Of peering in front window
Of a house and woodworking his
demand for a snack.
Meantime, Seney residents still
love Ted but they are. inclined to
temper their love with suspicion
Until someone finds out how long it
takes tame bear to go wild.

Poison Ivy, Here Is Reliable Cure
for This Infection

Poison Ivy, Here Is Reliable Cure
for This Infection
If an outdoor fan is unfortunate
enough to acquire cease" Of poi
son ivy this summer he'll be better
off it he does not listen to his
friends and try al lthier homemade,
"sure-cure remedies, advises the
Izaak Walton League in a recent
vacation bulletin.
There is no reason to fool with
trick cures when definite relief
and cure for poison ivy Is avail
able. Here is the way to treat a
case Of this vegetable poison. The
method is the result Of hundreds
Of experiments conducted by well
known scientist, J. B. McNair, for
merly connected with the Univer.
sity Of Chicago, and now on the
staff Of the Field Museum.
First, infected parts should be
washed thoroughly with strong
soap and water. Laundry soap is
better than plain hand soap. The
idea is to remove from the skin as
much Of the irritating oil Of the
poison ivy plant as possible. Soap
and water will do very well, but
washing the infected parts with
ether or chloroform Is recommend
ed because the oil Of poison ivy is
easily soluble in these. -
Next, apply a 8 per cent solution
Of Ferric Chloride which has been
added to a fifty-fifty solution Of
water and alcohol. If you can't
get the alchol use the diluted fer
ric chloride solution. Swab the in
fected parts thoroughly with cot
ton soaked in the chloride, and
then apply congresses Of the solu-
ton to the infected skin. Keep
the pads moist and well bandaged.
Renew the chloride solution at in
tervals.
Ferric Chord or iron chloride
can be purchased at most any drug
store. Out door fans who wish to
play safe can take a bottle Of 1t
with them on their trips. D

Oil for Watches

The oil used In watches-or that
which should be used-comes from
a cavity in the jawbone Of the por-
poise or the blackfish. The best
quality Is rare. Cape Cod fishermen
bring in most Of 1t. To be tested,
It is taken up into Vermont, where
the mercury often goes far below
zero. The best grade is that which
remains practically unchanged at
these low temperatures. A single
drop of this oil Is enough to lubri-
cate watch.
