RED CLOUD. NEBRASKA. CHIEF Science Aiming Blow at Death Famous English Surgeon Predicts Perpotual Life and Brain Grafting. NEW DISCOVERIES BY CARREL Whole Kidney Successfully Grafted From One Animal Into Another of 8ame Species Arteries Transplanted. London. "Not only tnny tlio brntns of tlio illustrious bo grafted on tlio living, but wo may nlso bo on tlio cvo 'of tlio Bocrct of perpetual life." This nstounding possibility, arising out of u story told In the Dnlly Ex press of Prof. Alexis Cnrrel's discov ery, Is revenlcd by Sir Wlllinni Ar buthnot Lnne, the famous Burgeon, who worked with Professor Carrel be fore tho war. "Any tissue kept on n microscopic slide, nt n suitable tempernturo, fed with tho right matcrlnl, and drained nt frequent Intcrvnls, will grow and llvo forever," said Sir William. "If this Is applied not only to one or two tissues, but to all tho tissues of n living body, then It follows that such n man would llvo forever. Food Too Digestible. ' "Wo pay for civilization by cntlng digestible food. We should In renltty eat Indlgcstlblo food as the savage does.

Professor Car tel tried grafting a kidney on tho organism of n living man, but it be come calcareous. TIicko experiments, however, are invaluable because they lead the war. Overrun the Slides. "The tissues Professor Carrel la ex perimenting with are mounted on elides nnd have to be kept at the same temperature ns that of tho human body. They are wnshed every day with saline wnter to dispose of by products and they will never die as long ns the treatment is continued. They grow Just like n fungus, and In time overrun the slide.

GERMAN DEAD Soldiers Buried in Foreign Soil May Not Be Moved. Cost of Taking the Bodies Home From Belgium and France Is Considered Prohibitive Graves Are Be- ing Cared For. Berlin. German soldiers who died nnd were buried on Belgian nnd French battlefields probably will re main on foreign soil, on account of the cost entailed in bringing them home. This Is .Indicated In statements by tho official bureau Intrusted with tho work of helping relatives to iden tify tho dead nnd nrrnngo for tho transportation of their bodies to Ger many. Although negotiations with France nnd Belgium for tho rcinovnl of tho bodies were concluded weeks ago, not one German soldier hns been exhumed for the journey home, despite the fact nblo to unite tissues and keep them growing. Until this can be dono these fragments will have no thought, al though they may possess feeling. "This work gives doctors and scien tists n great Insight on what is going on in the human body. Stnnll tissues of the brain, tho liver, or the heart may all bo treated In tills way. If the fragments are fed with thyroid juico they will digest tho food and, provided all by-products nre washed awny, their life Is absolutely without limit." WOMAN CAPTURES A WILDCAT Beast Scratches Her Somewhat, but 8ho Is Going to Raise It for a Pet. Lend, S. D. Sirs. Myrn K.

The Improvements! which will revolutionize flying In this manner are in the weight of the motor In proportion to Its horsepower; tho, turbo-compressor, which he hns Just" invented with M.

YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC Social Teachings of the Quurter'o Les sons. The method of review will largely be determined by the tnste of the teachers and the gVndc in the school concerned. To the writer's tnste, two good methods nre available : the bio graphical and the summary. In using the biographical, the lives of four great prophets, Elijah, Ellsha, Jonah and Amos mny be considered. These four men nre connected with nearly nil the lessons of the qunrter. This inethot) can be used to good ndvnntnge in nearly all the grades of the school.. In the summary method the principal fact of each lesson with its leading lesson should be set forth. This method can bo used to good ndvnntnge In the ndult departments. The follow ing Is n suggested summary : Lesson I. Itehoboam refused to grant the request of tho people for the lightening of the burdens of taxa tion, llccnuse of this ten tribes under the leadership of Jeroboam revolted and formed another kingdom. The most effective cure for soclnl nnd political unrest Is Justice by the rulers to those ruled. Lesson II. EUJnh, after announcing to Almb the withholding of niin for n term of years, lied und was fed by the ravens nnd by tho widow at Zurephath. God adapts himself to the circumstances of Ills servants, and sometimes In the most unlikely ways provides for Ills own. Lesson III. At the request of Elijah, Ahub called the people together to wit ness n supreme challenge of Baal worship. Faith In God will stand the most severe test. The fire of God In the unfailing sign which differentiates true from false religion. Lesson IV. Elijah, though brave be fore the 450 prophets of Baal, fled for his life from Jezebel. God dealt most gently with his discouraged servant. We should lenrn from this hat fre quently we fall in our strongest point. Lesson V. Nnboth refused to sell his vineyard to Ahab, whereupon through Jezebel's plot he wus murdered, and Ahub took possession. Nations and kings should respect, the rights of In dividuals. Lesson VI. When Elijah's work wns finished, God took him to heaven by a whirlwind. Elijah hnd once requested death, but God had u better way for him to go to heaven than by way of death. Lesson VII. The Shunnmmlto woman, seeing Ellsha passing by on errands for God, was moved to pro vide n comfortable lodging for him, whereupon Ellsha sought to recom pense her by promising that God would give her u child. Not Infrequently has tho prophet's chamber brought bless ing to the home. Lesson VIII. At the command of Ellsha, Naaman dipped himself seven times In the Jordan and was healed of leprosy. In order to be healed of the leprosy of sin, human pride nnd vanity must ho put away nnd obedlcnco rendered to God. Lesson IX. The king of Assyria sent a great army to apprehend Ellsha be cause he had repeatedly Informed the king of Israel concerning the move ments of the Assyrian nrmy. When the Lord opened the eyes of Ellsjja'a servant, he beheld the mountains filled with horses and chariots of Ore. "Tho nngel of the Lord encampeth round about them thnt fear him, and de llvereth 4beni." "Lord, open our eyes I" Lesson X. At tho preaching of Jonah, the wicked city of Nineveh re pented nnd God showed mercy. God's mercy nnd forgiveness should move us to preach the gospel to the heathen. Lesson XI. The children of Israel prided themselves In their security and gavo themselves to luxury nnd Bensunl Indulgences. God sent Amos to warn them of the Judgment which must follow. The Lord will bring tho ungodly to Judgment for their ungodly, living. Lesson XII. In due time the prophecy of Amos cnino true. The Assyrinns enme nnd enrried the children of Israel into captivity, from which they never returned. Rejection of God nnd tho despising of Ills worship will bo followed with Judgment and destruc tion. Mockery. There Is no riiockery like the mock ery of thnt spirit which looks around In the world nnd believes thnt all Is emptiness. K. II. Chnpln. True Morality.
