DOUBLE VISION POSSIBLE Physician, Employing Latest Machine, Can See Foreign Substance In Hum;n Body With One Eye While Other Guides His Operating Hand Profes sor Holzknecht the Inventor. The discover r of u new method for remoiiiir: foreign substances from t tit; human body Ly the aid of X rays is announced by Professor Guldo lb'Uk neiht of Vienna. The machihu for this purpose lias been set up iu the clinic of Professor Liselbeii; in that city, and the method is described as follows : The new method permits the s-urgeon to see t lie field of the operation with one1 eye. under ordinary conditions, while the ottier eye sees tbe same held, under Roentgen, ray illumination. Tills method of double vision is made possible by the so called "Grashey monocle.'' constructed by Dr. Gral:ey. The Poentgen machine itseif is si.uat ed below the Hour, in a room under the operating room, if necessary, iu a cel lar, and it I connected by means of a speaking tube with the operating room. The surgeon is enabled to see on the picture in the Koentgeii ma chine how far his probe is removed from the obj t. Professor Eiselberg said there were undoubtedly many cases in which for eign bodies could be removed without the new apparatus, but the new meth od enabled the surgeon continually to keep the Kkly sought in the field of vision while conducting the operation himself. The result was less manip ulation of the probe and the finding of foreign bodies which formerly could not le located. ( Dr. llolzknecht, in speaking of his method, said : Difficulties Overcome. The removal of foreign bodies, even with the aid of X rays, often lias met with great difficulties. The surgeon, although he sees the object in the i Roentgen picture, has difficulty in Jind- ... . rr mg it in lue actual cieraiion. io ex amine tins problem the course of an or dinary ojeratioii of this kind was fol lowed by means of a small chr.vsto scojie without disturbing the oie ration iu itself. It was of the greatest interest to see the number of movements of itistru ments and the destruction of tissues necessary in the course of the usual operation before the foreign body om!l be definitely located. It was showu, therefore, to be necessary for a method to be devised by means of which the re lation of the foreign body to the instru ments of the surgeon could be ascer tained at all times and the position of the foreign boiy always kept in the field of vision. It was found that the change in tension of ttie tissues occa sioned by the incision caiwd the for eign body to move even while the op eration was in progress. The new method makes it impossible for the sur geon at any time to lose sight of this object. NEW TORPEDO IS GUIDED BY "EARS" i Remarkable Invention Will Follow Ship When It Changes Its Course and Wreck Propeller. Considerable notice has been given of late to a marine toriedo which is so constructed that its movements are guided by the sound waves issuing from the vessel serving as its target. The instrument is eiuiiiied with so called mechanical ears, says Popular Mechanics. Before the weajon is launched the latter are tuned to re ceive the vibrations produced by the KIecific craft that is the object of at tack. With this relationship establish ed the toriieelo's profiler whirls and the rudder adjusts itself so that the missile darts throush the water Ht its enemy. Its sjieed is twice that of the fastest navy vessel, while any ehiinge in the enemy's course causes it to shift its direction of travel correspondingly. If its approach is observed and the en pines of the vessel are stopped, the tor pedo's profiler also ceases revolving and the instrument submerges safely out of reach. It ascends and contin ues the pursuit when the engines in the ship are again started. Thus escaie from the weapon, even when it is sight ed, seems highly difficult. Normally the toriK'do would e-arry an eighty-five pound charge of jruncotton and strike the stern of a vessel, blowing a hole in its hull. Py lessening the charge, however, it is claimed the weapon could be rnade merely to wreck the pro pellers and rudder of a vessel. A Wild Auto. L. A. Clog of Pdddeford. Me., was much dismayed on coming out of a store lo find that his auto, which he had left at the curbing, was gone. He notified the polie-e. a search was insti tuted and the car found where it had rolled dowu the hill, around a corner and brought up against a tree. ;g f --3 ' S 45 JJ -3?

An interesting scheme for a subma rine pipe line to convey oil is propot-d by an Irish inventor. Th" flexible pipe he has designed for the purpose is ou trnctel of mild steel ribhon on the helical lui'e principle, the helicals being packed with asbestos twine. The steel ribbon is coated with a protective me tallic alloy and is of such a thickness as to render the completed pipe capa ble of withstanding an internal pro sure of L'.MX' pounds anl an external pressure lot u poun !s per s.piare iiicli. Fin-illy a cotton (: :ig is w v.-:' over the outide of the ; ip" and co.-.tc I with proervat ive compound. To gi longitudinal strength a standard steel cable or hawser i-; put in-Me the pipe. Th-- inventor coiivid- rs that a pipe line !! wit F.ngl inl and America could be laid iu three or foil r months. The course won! 1 be di- idod into twenty sections, and as many la ing ships would be employed, sc. that each would bae about 1 .".'' miles to iay. The ships would be provide 1 with sulli'-lt nt steel ribbon on reels, .villi cctto'.i. cable and ;ln r rc;ulrc tncnts, to complete their allotted di--tam-e. and each would carry a tube forming and sleeve weaving apparatus. The former coiisi-ts of a cross fr.'.i k carrying reels of tibl-on and asbotes and the forming and bending rollers, the whole being rotated round a steel mandrel. As th frame rotates the rollers press the steel ribbon to the re p:ired shape, inclosing the a-bestos ?.n interlocking the edgis of the ribbon, and, linally. the cotton casing is woven, on. the preservative compound being applied at the sam tii'io. The opera tions take place round the- steel cable. I y means of which the pipe would be fed into the water. The apparatus is designed to produce :.t leat sixteen feet of pipe a minute. When beginning work each ship would attach its pipe cable to an anchored buoy. GLASS EYE FOR CHRISTMAS. Judge Heeds Children's Plea For Pres ent For Their Father. Two children, one a boy. seven years old, and the other a girl, nine, entered tlij Hamilton comity court recently, says a report from Cincinnati, and ask ed to see Probate Judge Tueders. When brought before him the older child told ti e judge that their mother was dead and that they had inherited some property froln her. They asked if they might be allowed to have a part of the income from this source to purchase a Christmas present for their father. When Judge Tueders asked the na ture of the proposed gift the gill ex plained that her father, who had been injured and bad lost thereby the sight of one eye, needed a glass eye to re place the missing optic. The judge granted their request. A POLICEMEN'S COLLEGE. Berkeley (Cal.) City Fathers Provide Funds For Institution. Appropriation for a policemen's col lege has been made by the city coun cil of P.erkeley. Cal. Dr. Albert Schneider of the Univer sity of California is to be dean, and the faculty of fourteen will include eight professors and instructors from the university, who will give lessons in physics, physiology, anatomy, micro analysis and criminology and other courses.

The good natured proprietor of a Ceorgiu seed store adopted a novel method of extracting the seeds from a special variety of watermelon winch he wished to introduce and of which he had a number of sjocimens. The mel ons w ere cut. and a great crowd cf ne groes were invited in from the street to eat their favorite fruit free. All that was required of them besides eating melon was to save the seeds. EK-F1RE HORSE saves mm LIVE Sri Serum From His Veins Averts Lockjaw. NO HUMAN BEIF16 DOES MORE Service of Dan and His Fellows Pre vents Terrible Disease From Follow ing Warning of European Fighters. Animais Not In the Least Injured by the Treatment. Wh'.'ii the army surgeon at the field hospital ou the French front stands over a soldier maimed and torn bj shrapnel at.d lifts a shining needle tip ped instrumer.t and tills its tube with tetanus antitoxin, he may pur it into a liquid that came from the veins of ban, mi old retired New York city fire horse, which lives on the health de partment sanitarium farm at Otisville, X. V., says the New York Times. In the last five years, since ha was discarded by the lire department, Dan has supplied diphtheria antitoxin and tetanus serum which would have cost its users ?11' h)(m in the oik-u market. At least loo.ooo Euroitean soldiers, it is estimated, have been treate'd with antitoxin tak"!i from the veins of this old horse. lie has been so inoculated with tetanus germs that he now pro duces the serum periodically and will so long as he lives. City Sells Antitoxin. .Since the war started the New York city health department has been sell ing tetanus antitoxin to the lighting nations at the rate of ?"o.ik worth a year. In the first months of the war a shipment of the antitoxin was sent to Austria, but it is not known whether it ever reached its destination ; the rest of the antitoxin sold has gone to the allied nations. lan and four other horses retired from the lire and street (leaning departments have- produced this serum, from which was made anti-toxin which has brought to the health department about STO.OOO. There are on the Otisville farm about twenty horses. Under the New York city laws the health department pro vinces the antitoxins for distribution in the city, free f charge, to hospitals and those who cannot afford to pay for them. The law also provides that if the health department produces more antitoxins than are needed in the city it may tell the surplus, the reve nue t" be used for health department ; urposes. Up to the beginning of the v. ar most of the serum produced at Oti.-ville was for diphtheria antitoxin, there being verv little demand for tet anus antitoxin in New York city. When the war started the depart-n-i:t had a surplus of tetanus anti toxin, which ir. sold in Furope. and. inasmuch as the expense of producing :::ore was not large, live horses instead of m were set to manufacturing the life guarding :'uid. Tide department has been supplying its European mar ket and now has about quarts in reserve. Many Thousands Saved. Dr. W. II. Parks, head of the city health department laboratory, said that probably as many as 4UXo wounded soldiers had been treated with the tetanus antitoxin the depart ment had sent abroad, with the result, he was sure, of the saving of many thousands of lives. Dr. Parks explain ed that the horses suffered almost nothing. lie said the diphtheria inocu lation made the animals a bit groggy and perhaps might shorten their lives, but that the horses treated with the tetanus germs were all in the best of health. Animals in very poor shape when taken to the farm" have soon be come sleek and handsome, despite the germs they carried around. The ani mals do no work and are well fed. Pr. Parks said that it was practica ble to have a horse produce two se rums at once: that there would be no quarrel among the germs. But he said that in practice, inasmuch as old horses were easy to get, only one se rum was made by one horse. The animals are inoculated with the germs of either diphtheria or tetanus, and the dose is gradually increased, ihe animal's system all the time man ufacturing antitoxin a sort of super vaccination. When a certain stage has been reached the blood vessels in the animal's iiclIc are tapped and an amount of blo.nl taken, from which the antitoxin is made in the health de partment laboratories. Diphtheria in oculation must be made more often than that for tetanus serum. No Pain Caused to Animal. It was after Dan had turned out many quarts of diphtheria serum that the war turned him into a lockjaw se rum plant. He was "fed up" before the treatment was started. It took about three weeks of inoculation treat ment before his blood was in the prop er state to produce the best serum. The tetanus germs caused the making 'f antitoxin to counteract them, and gradually Dan"s blood came to the point where he could make a very large amount of antitoxin needed to combat the germs shot into his veins. He is now regularly led up to the sta bles, and the blood is taken from his neck. The doctors who do the work say that he suffers very little pain. Dr. Parks said that the example of the horses at Otisville was a consum mate example of service which no hu man ever excclleel. HE EATS AND LOLLS IMSELF TO DEATH Ha Rustles, He Drinks Too Much, and H's Flabby. WHO? WHY, MR. AMERICAN! For Further Information as to His Shortcomings Read What E. E. Rit tenhouse Has to Say About Him. Then Help Him Mend His Ways So That He May Live Longer. The composite average American a physical sham, and h doe' n't know it. He is trying to crowd two life times into one. He feeds on a lot of tasty junk and seriously overstrains his heart, arteries, kidneys, nerves and digestion. He drinks about nineteen gallons of booze a year. He is partial to suicide. He is easily winded, weak and Uabby muscled, stiff Jointed and lacking in agility and endurance. Purtherniore, he will probably die at forty-three1 years of age, but he car ries more life insurance than the com posite average citizen of any other na tion in the world. All of which and a great many other facts were told recently at the tenth anniversary convention of the Asso ciation of Life Insurance Presidents in New York city, where executives rep resenting aliout fx per cent of the 'JJ, 1 m i,m m , h n old line insurance in force in the United States gathered for a discussion of business, patriotism, eco nomic preparedness and other nation ally vital topics of the day more or less directly redated to life insurance. Tells Us What We Are. The most frank of all the speakers was K. I-'. Pittenhoiise, commissioner of public service and conservation of, the Equitable Life Assurance society.; who dissected Mr. Composite Axerage American most searchingly in a paper on "The Pelationship of Life Insur ance to National Physical Prepared" ness."' He came to the conclusion that the call for national physical prepared ness of the individual is urgent; that the evidence of declining physical en durance of the American people em phasized the need for immediate ac tion. "A marvelous increase has occurred." he said, '"in wealth, in time saving and labor saving devices whi' h have rad ically changed the living habits of a vast number of people. Physical ex ertion has materially declined, while the per capita intake of food has in creased, much of it overrhh and in jurious. "A sudden demand for physical ex ertion hnds the average individual eas ily winded, weak and flabby muscle 1. joints stiffened by disuse. He is lack ing in both agility and endurance. The mortality rate from wear and tear of life is abnormally gaining. The low powered or substandard group of our. iiopnlation is apparently in creasing. To check this vital waste is an imperative national duty." To facilitate matters Mr. Pittonhouse visualized the physical American, and some of the things he said about that individual were as follows: "He is amazingly prosperous. In two generations his wealth has increased r4 per cent. He looks smootli, pink and healthy. He is a good liver. He hurries. He has no time to waste. The age at death of the American peo ple is about forty-three. His hair is aged, and he is getting bald. Nature asks why hirsute protection is needed indoors. His eyes have been strained by close focus and inside work, hence the eyeglasses. His teeth put up a good front, but they need attention. More Defects. "His digestive organs have been giv en too many new and arduous duties. Under exertion he is short winded, due to lack of exercise or a bad heart. He is designed as an erect outdoor animal, with feet and legs for service, but he not only lies down by night, but he sits down by day. His 4X) muscles are vir tually all soft and weak from lack of use. He never walks "when he enn ride. "He would not think of mixing bricks or scrap iron or eravel with the fuel for the furnace, but he does not hesitate to follow this plan in fur nishing fuel for his body. He seems to think 'auto intoxication is some au tomatic way of getting pleasure. lie should note the insurance records, which show that, with those above forty years old, having lifteen to eighty pounds overweight, the excess death rate ranges from 9 to 1Z per cent above the average. "He harbors the erroneous imprcs fion that our gain in conserving life has overcome all adverse conditions. He points to n decline in the general death rate and says our vitality there fore must 1h gaining. The elecline, In stead of indicating an increase in the strength and sturdiness, simply shows that we have learned how to avoid cer tain enemies, as we would step around a dangerous beast chained in the street. An abnormal Increase has occurred in the death rate from disease due di rectly to life strain, the direct results of the heavy burden of service put upon the vital organs of the body." Abandon Celebration. Dexter, Me., has given to charity the money which it had voted to use to cel ebrate President Wilson's re-election in place of having the celebration. I.P.fi 1. OTHT.
