RED CLOUD, NEBRASKA, CHIEF Find Cause of 'Wound' Shock Doctor Canon of Harvard and Aids Announce Results of Ex periments During War. DIFFERENT FROM SHELL DAZE Condition Usually Develops Some Hours After Serlouo Wound or Accident Dead Tissues Be come Toxic and Poisonous. Cambridge, Mass. Discoveries inntlo by Dr. Walter U. Cannon of the Har vard Medical school and otlier Ainori can, British and French medical olt cers toward tlio close of the World war have brought forth new evidence regarding the cause and nature of the Mrungo phase known as "shock," a condition that led to Innumerable, deaths In war time and frequently has u similar result after accidents In time of peace. "Shock, or wound-shock, ns It Is often called, has long ballled the medi cal profosslnii," Doctor Cannon said to a press representative, on being asked to describe the results of hjs Im portant work. Occurs After Any Accident "This condition, which, by the way, bhould not be confused with shell shock, an entirely different phenome non, usually develops somo hours ufter n serious wound or accident. It frequently followed grave shell wounds In the war, and often comes on after a person has been seriously hurt In nil accident in times of peace, ufter, for example, lio lias had a limb crushed In a railroad accident. "There hnvo been numerous theories of thu nature of shock. Home doctors held that shock resulted from nervous collapse, others that it came from a clogging of blood vessels by fat from won nils, eomo that It was duo to pa ralysis of tho nerves controlling the urterlcs, others that the adrenal gland was somehow affected so as to do the mischief, and so on. Our work in Franco gavo us oppor tunity to study shock in the utmost de tail. One by ono wo threw out the theories advanced in former yours. Establish Real Cause.

BIG PROFIT Large Increase in the Industry in This Country. J own Boy Clears $1,200 In One Year by Raising Them In His Back Yard. Washington. liaising rabbits for the market is becoming n pleasurable and profitable Industry in certain parts of tho country. A resident of Kansas City, Kan., has raised UOO to 400 pounds of rabbit meat a year for his own tablo at a cost of only eight to ten cents a pound. In Nebraska n largo religious Institution that has raised rabbits Instead of poultry re ports tho meat more satisfactory than chicken nnd tho experiment profitable. According to a former county commis sioner of Washington, rabbits wero J.TOWH on tho county farm to provide , substitute for chicken for the - sort of poison. This toxin causes nn increased permeability of tho smallest blood-vessels, the capillaries, and thus there Is lost through their walls quan tities of thu fluid portion of tho blond which should lie In circulation. Tho result Is somewhat similar to that of great loss of blood from the body." American, British mid French medi cal and surgical olllcers co-opernled In thu investigations, somo of which were made nt Bcthuiic in 11)17, somo hi London, and others at Dijon In 1018 lu a laboratory of the American expedi tionary forco under Doctor Cannon's direction. "Toward tho end of the war," con cluded Doctor Cannon, "wo hnd learned much about methods of treat ing such cases, finding that It was helpful to keep tho patient amply warm, to give him quantities of wa ter, and, If necessary, to transfuse blood Into ttie system from somebody else's."

If that falls to occur thero might be u failure of Internal fires and the crust of the earth would nbsorb all the water and the air.

Another Way. And the end might be brought about by the slowing down or the speeding up of the rate of the earth's rotation on Its own axis. Thu rotation at present Is just sufllclent to counter act the centripetal forco of the sun, and If It were slowed down the earth would fly Into the sun, starting at the rate of 1,100 miles an hour and he' consumed. If the rate of rotation; were accelerated the earth would lly out Into spaco Into a temperature ofj 100 degrees below zero and the oceans, would be frozen to their utmostl depths. Otlier ways by which Mr. Gullen, could see the world come to its end were the closing up of nil volcnnoetf and other vents for gases, tho Inovlt-' able result of which would bo n terrific explosion that would shatter the world or bring part of tho ntmosphcre to such a heat that the oxygen and nitrogen would unite and cnuso a combustion of tho atmosphere. That such disasters were not Impos sible was shown, he said, by tho spec troscope, by means of which man could rend the llfo history of tho. planets. He ndded: "The spectroscopo shows that onel plnnet Is In n stnto of white heat, that another showing yellow Is on the down1 grade, that Mars Is dying, thnt tliej moon Is dead, while Jupiter Is Just get ting ready for sentient life. This world! is on Its way to death, for It Is travel ing straight toward Hercules 000,000 miles n day, and while tho distance Is Immense It Is not Infinite." The Great Danger. Hut tho greatest danger that Mr. Gallon thinks confronts the earth Is a collision with n dead star. Such a star would be Invisible until It cnino within the range of thu sun's rays, which would bo when It was llvo times ns far away as Neptune. It could then bo scon In tho telescope. In twenty flvo years more It would be visible to the naked eye. In flvo years more It would pass Neptuno and In llf days from that time If It kept straight on, It would strike tho earth. Thnt would give us thirty-two years and 145 days of warning from the time tho dead world was first picked i.p by the tele scope. Science tells us tho end Is coming, tho preacher went on more reassuring ly, but It does not believe tho end Is" near. It estimates that God took ninety million years to make the world habitable by man and that man's llfo , on It Is perhaps 100,000 years. Ills comparatively optimistic com- ( ment at the finish was: "Why could (ion spend nil Hint time in making a world If It Is to be de stroyed so soon? God wastes neither space, material nor time. He Is too busy. Ho Is continually making new worlds, but Ho does not destroy them almost as soon as they are made." hour of tlmo u dny and somo liny, road side weeds nnd refuse from orchard, garden and kitchen, Mippleniented by a sniiill quantity of grain, cover the cost of production.

The Behavior of Martha and Mary When Jesus Was In the Home (Luko-10:.'!S-12). The attitude of Martha and Mary towutd Josiii was the same; they both loved lllm sincerely. 1. .To-us welcomed Into Martini's Imme (v. ML Though Jesus hnd no homo of Ills own, into this home He could come ut uny time and tlnow on? the restraints Incident to n public min istry. How plea-nut It is to enter n home where one con feel "nt home" 1 In Murthn's home Jesus was welcomed for what He was, not for what Ho might nppenr to be. This home was Ills special retreat In the last days of Ills life on onrtlt. 2. Mary sitting at Jesus' feet (v. :)). '1 hough this was Martha's home, her sister Mary lived with her. Mary hud a peculiar spiritual Insight which prompted her to sit at Jesus' feet and ll-teii to Ills words. The real place, to hear Jesus' word is at Ills feet. Let no one Imnglne that Mary did not render any service. The llttlw word "also" Implies that she had taken her turn at service. It. Martini's complaint (v. -10). Sho j wasdesirous of preparing the very ' best po-slble menl for Jesus becauso she loved lllm. She was mlstnkon us to what pleased Jesus. He much prefers the love which concerns Itself with Him than for His. Because of her failure to perceive this she wa.s "cumbered nbout much serving." Her serving got on her nerves; she became distracted. In her distraction she not only found fault with Mary, but even censured Jesus for allowing Mary to sit at Ills feet while the dinner wns not finished. In order to serve Jesus without distraction one must first sit at His feet and listen to Ills words. This gives per-onnl poise. . Jesus' reply (vv. 41, 42). (1) Ho rebuked Martha, telling her that she was careful and troubled about many things. Those who nro concerned with the Muster nro uikIous for nothing' (Phil. 4:0). The one thing needful for every life Is to sit ut Jesus feet. The time to choose this place Is in the dny of sunshine. (II) Ho commend Mary. "Mary hath chosen that good part which shall not be taken away." Those who choose this good part can not be robbed of It by circumstances, friends, or foes. II. Jesus, the Obedient Son (Luke Although Jesus wa.s conscious of Ills 'deity und divine mission, He rendered due obedience us n faithful son. Since lie wns known ns the carpenter's son (Matt. Kl :!"."), und the carpenter (Murk 0:U), It Is reasonable to sup pose that He assisted Joseph In hli work as a enrpenter, und after Jo soph's death He, as thu eldest son of the family, continued with the trade to support the family. Indeed, tradi tion has It that soon ufter they found Him in the templo nt the uge of twelve, Joseph died leaving the care of the family upon lllm. The obedient child Is really nbout his father's bus iness when running errands for moth er lu loving obedience to her request. III. Timothy's Home Training (II Tim. :i:14, 15). This Is u picture of n real Christian home. From n child, thnt Is, a bnbe, Timothy wns tnught tho Holy Scrip tures (v. 15). This teaching was not done In thu Sunday school, but lu the home of his mother (II Tim. 1:5). The Sunday school can never take the place of homo teaching. Timothy hud n godly ancestry. Ills mother hud the good sense to 1111 his mind with "? tho word of (loil before It became pre occupied with other things. The rea son this is so Important Is because tlits Scriptures are (imi-bronthed, anil able to inako one wise. The wisdom which Is obtained from the Scriptures leads to Christ, the only Savior, In whom alone Is salvation (Acts 4:12)., Thoso Without Fault.
