Medi- cal authorities elsewhere indicated, 'however, there 'was no cause for "alarm" respecting humans, ~The report summarized seven years' experiments, made in the ani- mal nutrition laboratory at Cornell by Dr. L. L. Madsen and Professors C. M. McCay and L.A, Maynard. The animals were goats, sheep, guinea pigs and rabbits, Their muscles degenerated. Paralysis re- sulted. Hearts were affected, with evidence of fatty changes. Livers became fatty. y The harm was traced to an un- identified "fraction" present in cod liver oil. This "fraction" is not as- sociated with the vitamins, for which the oil issgiven. It probably can be removed, the report; states, and ap- parently is largely removed in cod The writers state that their results have no direct bearing on cod liver oil in human nutrition. "But they suggest," the report says, "a careful reconsideration of the wisdom of the continuous use of the large intakes now recommended, particularly in view of the reports of Agdurhr and Malmberg of heart injuries in infants." The two scientis's named as au- thorities for a possible human angle are Eric Agduhr of the University of Upsala and Nils Malmberg of Stockholm, oF Inquiry of medical authorities brought a statement from Iago Gald- ston, M.D., New York Academy of Medicine, that '"'undoubtedly proper notice will be talen of these re- ported experimental data, but for the present no alarm on the subject is warranted." The Cornelians found the cod liver oil damage while searching for the best food for farm animals b+ giving them synthetic diets. Seek Free ; Advertising Because a paper is constantly seek- ing news to make its columns inter- esting to a wide circle of readers, many persons attempt to take ad- vantage of the editorial staff by hand- ing in advertising reading in the guise of news. When these are returned or do not appear in print, the readers usually take it upon themselves to hurl abuse at the paper. They consid- er- organization and humanitarian services rendered by their special or- ganization as worthy as all the free espace they can get, If these persons would only stop to conslder where the paper would be if every organization received the same amount of 'free|. advertising" they expect for their own society, - the criticism would cease. There are still . people, too, who . think the price they pay for their paper covers its cost of pro- duction. The amount paid does not pay for -even the cost: of materials used in its printing. A. newspaper's chief source of revenue is its adver- tising, And. if this is to be given Iree | to every organization where members are enthused on a cause, where will the publisher turn for money to pay his expenses? ~ What is "Pep?" Pep is the thing which makes. the ambs gambol with glee, the colts prance with joy, the calves throw up their tails and run like fury, the birds 'sing in split-throat notes, the frogs croak upon the creek bank, the in. pects buzz and hum in the air, the milkman whistle as he jogs along, the blacksmith laughingly beat the fron {nto shape, the plowman urge his engineer wave a kiss to his sweet- heart as he throws open the throttle, ; the wocdman smilingly plunge his axe into the giant tree, the banker and merchant rush to their work with 'a cheery "good-bye," the mech- anic and the laborer fairly dance to their jobs, the soldier '"goes-over the top" with clinched jaws and courage that. knows no fear, the live sales- man hie to his calls with shoulders squared, pride in his heart and nerves a-tingle, with anticipation of new suc» cess.

Avoid Risks Of Fire For Children You may make children's dresses incombustible by putting an ounce of alum or Sal ammoniac in the last water in which they are rinsed, they will be rendered almost uninflam- mable, or; at least, will with diffi- culty take fire, and if they do, will burn. without flame, It is astonish- ing: that" this simple precaution 1 so rarely adopted.

And there aré two ways of going through it," You can either walk bravely through it cn your own feet, or, de- pending upon someone else, you can hobble through it on a crutch, A young man of twenty, in good health and fine physical condition, left High School two years ago and has done nothing since. He writes to me--"I don't know what 1 am go- ing to do with my life. There's no chance for a young fellow like me today." Well, a letter like that almost makes me smile. If some older folk had taken that attitude at twenty, I wonder what would have become of them. \Where wou'd they be today? Frankly, the fellow who talks about "being given a chance" strikes me as one looking for a crutch with tp hobble through life. i Now [I recognise that times have been hard and that this is a queer world. The economic situation is still a little strained, and jobs are perhaps, scarce. Morcover, it is true that, to a great cxtent, machinery seems to have replaced manpower, and that does create a modern di ficulty. But------and this is what I try to impress upon all young folks who come to consult me, Initiative, Perseverence, Independence, Ingenu- ity, Self-reliance, and Courage to dare and to do are not exactly out- worn virtues in the world, Wherever they are brought into play they have their own reward. To this young man, and to others like him, 1 want to say--Don't wait for a chance. Go out and make a chance for yourself. Some tolks might want to tell me that I don't know what 1 am talking about when I say that. Well, at all events, I have the -backing of his- tory. Men have been successful in the past even when hard times had struck the world, but such men were seldom given a chance. They simply trained. themselves to recognise op- portunity, and whenever opportunity camo their way they selzed it and made full use of it. Success never comes by chance. A man just doesn't jump to cuccess all at one bound. Success is only it- tained by initiative, perseverance, push, and hard work. _ "The heights by great men reach. ed and kept . Were not attained by flight; (But they, while their companions slept, Were toiling upward in the night." You can follow their example by doing exactly as they did. 'Keep yourself fit .Train yourself to recog- nize opportunity, and by persistent effort, work and study, prepare your- self for making the best of oppor- tunity when it presents itself. Do not relax your effort, Don't think any job heneath 'you or any task too menial so long as it provides an hon- est living. Obey -the Scriptural in.
