One of its departments is a "nursing home" are about 40 specimens, including cobras, vipers, kraits and echis. There is a considerable export from India of snake venom. Cobra venom is used in relieving acute pain from cancer and angina pectoris, and that of the viper has been found effective in checking excessive hemorrhage. One problem the institute has to battle is the habit the„cobra has developed of going on hunger strikes. When the proposed "snake farm" in the institute is established, the reptiles, under natural conditions, should have better appetites, and thrive and multiply. This would relieve the transportation companies of the anxiety involved in bringing snakes from the jungle to the institute. Haffkine Institute got its name from Waldemar MordeCai Haffkine, distinguished bacteriologist, under the Indian Government, who died a few years ago. Claims Prior Right To British Crown "King Anthony" Hall Says He Is Descended from Both Tudors And Plantagenets the fire." This was the greeting given to a journalist who went to a suburban home in London, England, to interview a bald-browed, tall man named Anthony William Hall, who spends his time addressing public meetings to prove that he, and not George VI, should be King of England. Hall, who says he is descended both from the Ttdors and Plantagenets, and, incidentally, claims the crown of Ireland because his mother's name was "Eire," bases his claims on the following contentions: 1. Be believes the tradition that James I, King of England, was a changeling and was actually the son of the Earl of Mar. So the Act of Settlement, establishing William of Orange on the throne of England, was invalid, for his claim was derived through his Stuart wife, Mary, and if Mary was a Mar, the claim collapses. 2. He claims that Henry VIII had a child by Anne Boleyn before he had divorced Katharine of Aragon. This ehild, a son, he believes, was brought up by a farmer named Hall, in Sussex, and he can trace his ancestry directly to this son, known as John Hall. The son, he claims, did not dare claim the throne from Elizabeth when he came to manhood. He adduces the fact that Edward VI was never created Prince after. J^une f Wal No Barr 3. He claims that illegitimacy is no barrier to inheritance, as William the Conqueror and Edward VII both had illegitimacy in the blood, and Henry's claim as a Lancastrian, was admittedly through illegitimacy. Hall makes frequent public speeches to keep his claim to the throne alive. Smiles and Chuckles April fool comes but once a year, the other kind come every day. Young Son--"Say, Dad!" Dad--"Now what, young fellow " Young Son--"Nothing much. I was just fighting these pesky flies and wondering if Noah had two flies in the ark." Dad--"Why, I guess so.

He (throwing stones into the wat ed the best season for pruning, but Ire are a few specific exceptions. 1st of these are the early blooming slffubs. These should be left until blooming. Grapes must be Bed early in March to avoid ex-bleeding. Raspberries are pruned after the crop has been produced and then all the year old canes The main object of pruning is to open up the centre of the growth so that sunshine and air may penetrate freely and also, of course, to produce a symmetrical plant. Naturally any dead or weak growth should be removed and also branches that rub against each other. A HOT BED Where a faiily large quantity of flower or vegetable plants are to be started early indoors, a hot bed is indispensable, but where only a few of each variety are wanted, the job may be carried out successfully in a sunny window'. The hot bed is usually prepared in March and simply consists of a bed of fresh horse manure, which supplies the heat, about M( - deep. On this, two or three inches of fine soil are placed and after the bed has heated up and then cooled down again--a matter of three or four days--the seed is sown in rows a few inches apart. The bed is protected by rough boarding along the side or heaped up earth and on top, abodt 10 to 18 inches above the bed, is placed a window sash well glassed and sloping towards the south. When the plants have developed their second set of leaves they are thinned out and before being transplanted outside they are hardened in a cold frame which is simply a hot bed without any heating material. The window hot bed is simply a shallow box two or three inches deep filled with fine .soil, kept well moistened.

Talk two minutes to John McLeish, Director of Mines and Geology, Ottawa, and you will find that the big advance of nowadays is in sulphur and nepheline syenite, says the Globe and Mail. Nepheline syenite is being shipped from Ontario for use iu ceramics in the United Stales. Anhydrite is being shipped as fertilizer to England. The Algoma Steel Corporation is opening up the old Helen Mine for iron, and the big copper and silver fnines are going after the production of sulphur he paper-making industry. "Gre; thin these fields in Canada today and there John McLeish. He used sulphur as an illustration. Canada for years, he pointed out, imported sulphur for paper manufacturing from Texas and Louisiana. And at the same time sulphur belching from the smokestacks of. smelters blighted the countryside of mining Nor i Oni ish Columbia. Researchists went after the problem. At first they captured the sulphur from the smokestacks in the form of sulphuric acid. Now they have captured it in its elemental form both from the smoke and from pyrites. The Aldermac Mines. Noranda, was now STOPPED IN A MINUTE . . . opening up for the mining of sulphur from pyrites, said Mr. McLeish. Nepheline syenite, another of the new discoveries, is a form of feldspar, which is cheaper than the feldspar now being used in china and glass making, he said. It is being mined in the Peterborough district and now is being exported. It was the discovery of new methods of processing the rock, to get rid of its iron content, that opened up this new field in Canada, he pointed out. Royal Winter Fair Continues To Crow Optimistic Outlook For 1938 Show--Ever-Widening Importance In National Agricultural Scheme. At the annual meeting of the Royal Winter Fair on March 23 when the Hon. G. Howard Ferguson was guest speaker, the directors, reviewing the past year, found ample cause for congratulation, they stated, that the Fair, now in its 17th year, gives abundant proof of a freshness and vigor to assure its permanence, and that public recognition of the annual service it performs within the national agricultural scheme continues to grow in ever-widening importance. The last Fair was notable for extension in several departments and for consolidation of established lines of work in other departments. One of the most significant developments was the expansion to twice their previous size of exhibits of Seed and Grain. There is no doubt, the report adds, that with more suitable grain-growing seasons the Show at the Royal Winter Fair will attain truly national import-Signs of Healthy Growth Expansions also were made in the Women's Exhibits and in the Dog Show, as also in the local and historic exhibits of.rural activities, and a new activity was the revival of the Silver Fox and Mink Show. In fact, the steady improvement noted for several years past was carried forward without abatement in every department in 1937. The growing number of American live stock owners who exhibit proves the confidence it has established, notably in the Royal Horse Show and in the cattle divisions. The directors look upon this feature as one of the best signs for the healthy growth in their institution in the coming decade. The financial statement shows a small but satisfactory surplus for the Want Orthopedic Service Started About 400 Infantile Paralysis Victims In Ontario Still Need Supervision Establishment of a generalized orthopedic service throughout Ontario for the prevention of child deformities was advocated last week by Miss Gretta Ross, supervisor of nurses for the Society for Crippled Children, in Dr. Fred H.

One is a combination of suction pump and test tubes for "assaying" the subject's breath. The other is a hypodermic needle with which to extract a specimen of the subject's Blood Tests Taken The Journal.of the American Medical Association discussed the situation at length last week and found: 1. That even one glass of beer increased the incidence of error in simple experiments: 2. That two or three whiskies caused "definite variations" from the normal acts of the ordinary driver. 8. That slight intoxication started when the patient showed alcoholic' content of one-tenth of one per cent, in the blood. Dr. Sidney Selesnick, of Boston, found that blood drawn directly from the body offered ' the most positive proof of intoxication and the best medium because it was "always available" and required no effort on the part of the subject. Auto Radio Warns Of Hearing Train New Invention Causes It To Blare A Warning of Approaching Danger A red light will flash on the dashboard and the auto radio will blare a warning of trains approaching grade crossings with a new radio invention described last week at Gary, Indiana. Designed to work in atitos that are within the danger zone when a train approaches a crossing, the device signals the auto dashboard at the same time that it starts the usual crossing-lights and bells. The device, Clausing, one of its inventors, explained, consists of a small radio transmitter placed at grade crossings and actuated by approaching trains as are warning bells and gates. A wire is strung from the transmitter to a distance of about one-quarter mile along the road on both sides of the crossing. Picks Up Waves Waves emanating from the wire within a 100-foot radius are picked up by a mechanism installed in auto radio receiving sets. The pickup in* the auto radio can be set to operate at varying distances from a crossing. It operates only when a train is approaching. Even if the auto radio is playing music, the warning signal will drown out the harmony, said its inventors. Installation of the red warning light on the dashboard can be op- The pickup, it was said, could be built into radio sets for from $3 to $4, and the crossings transmitters could be installed for small cost. fCOUGHS | lake half a teaspoon^ of M You'll get relief ' -jj
