New Cure Is Found for Child Disease / Submersion in Water Treat i ment for Infantile Paraly sis—Is Successful. By International News Service. Chicago, June 12.—Successful treat ment of infantile paralysis by sub mersion of children in a tank of tepid water was announced today by the staff of the Northwestern university m^jjical school. The method has been found so successful, it was announced, that patients formerly compelled to remain in wheel chairs are able to walk. In some instances without crotches. A tank five feet high and six feet in diameter, much resembling a rain barrel, has been installed In the school. It Is filled with water enough to submerge the legs and lower torsos of child patients. It was installed by the father of a Chicago girl who miraculously found she was able to use her para lyzed legs for swimming when one day she was helped into the surr while undergoing treatment in the south. The theory behind the treatment is that the afflicted arm or leg is sub merged in water, support is given to the muscles and if any strength re . mains in them the patient can move 'hem. Children taking the treatment, ac cording to the doctors, respond we.ll to it because of the pleasure they have splashing and frisking about. They usually come out only under howling Iirotest.

Stout th* heart which known not fright When Nature doth display her might.— Mother Bear. The Thunder Storm. Bittlest Bear was not only lone some, but she had begun to feel strangely uneasy. It was a queer feeling. She didn’t know what to make of it. She felt as if something was going to happen, but what could happen she hadn’t the slightest Idea. This feeling made her even more lonesome. Never in her short life had she known such stillness. There wasn't a sound in the fireen Forest. Not a leaf moved. Bittlest Bear began to whimper. She whimp ered softly, ns if afraid of the sound of her own voice. "I want my mother. I want my mother. 1 want my mother," whim pered Bittlest Bear, and began to run. This stanga stillness fright ened her more and more. She couldn't keep still. It was easier to run. She tried to think that she was running back to where Bhe hnd | last seen Mother Bear. But she j wasn't. You see she hadn't any idea | at all where she was. She kept on running, and aa ahe ran ahe kept on whimpering. “I wan t my mother. I want my mother.” Suddenly there waa a deep, low growl, the biggest growl Littlest Bear ever had heard. She sprang to the nearest tree, but before she could Then there eame a flash of light that almoftt blinded l.ittle Hear. start to scramble up It she remem bered that she couldn't find Mother Bear if she was up In a tree. With her heart going pit-a-pat, pit-a-pat with fright, she waited to see If that dreadful rumbly, grumbly growl would be repeated. It was getting very dahk, although It was not yet time for night. After waiting r mo ment or two, she started on again. She had taken but a few Jumps when that dreadful rumbly, grumbly growl was repeated louder than be fore. Once more she bolted for the nearest tree and waited. What ter rible creature could It be that growled like that? Compared with it, Mother Bear's deepest, most rumb ly, grumbly growl was as nothing. And this growl seemed to come from nowhere In particular, unless It was overhead. Again Littlest Bear started to run. and now she was doing more whim pering. She was crying. Teg, sir, she was crying. It grew even darker. Then there came a flash of light that almost blinded Littlest Bear, and right after It a terrible Roosevelt said: "The geysers, the extraordinary hot springs, the lakes, the moun tains, the canyons, the cataracts, unite to make this region something not wholly paralleled elsewhere on the globe." The ideal and complete tour of Yellowstone is in Qanliner, out Cody-through the Buffalo Bill Country, “The Land You Will Never Forget.** Ask anyone who has made the trip, lou can include Colorado, via the Burlington, without extra rail charge.

Then she scrambled up the nearest tree. Happily Jack Squirrel never went up a tree faster than Llttlest Bear went up that tree. No. sir. he never did./ Right up as high as she could go she scrambled. There In a crotch she rolled herself into a ball with her nose buried btwen her paw*, too frightened to even whimper. Then the rain came pouring down. There were more of those flashes of light and more of that terrible noise. It was a thunder storm. Llttlest Bear s first thunder storm. She was so frightened that it seemed to her her heart would stop beating. She didn't dare move. So there In the top of that tre* yttlest Bear stayed until the atorm was over. She had climbed that tree because to her a tree was the safest place for safety, and thought she really wasn't any safer, she felt safer.
