HEALTII
RESISTANCE TO DISEASE.
11 is a fact of common observation
that not all persons are alike in their
pi \wcr to resist disease. For example,
alien typhoid fe er Gr pneurrh.lua 1s
'neva:eel, only a few, us compared
with the total population, acquire the
(hetes', ultheugh all may be living un-
tie/ the same cc,uditions and be equally
exposed to the infection. l'hysicia,s
any, iu general terms, that those who
r: cape have greater resisting power,
%a like) means that they 'lave some pow-
er weliin them to destroy the germs
teal get into the body, and so to pre-
vent their multiplication and the manu-
facture by them of the poisons \vhkh
cause the lesions and symptoms cot the
disease.
For a 1. ng tine it was unknown how
the system was enabled to destroy the
irhlt•Iol►e's of disease or to neutralize
their effects. A solution of the problem
has, however, r•ecoguiz' d as essential
if physicians were ever going to Le able
to treat infectious diseases in the only
rational way -that is to say, ly destroy -
Inv the cause; or to prevent with c. r-
tetnfy their occurrence in those who haul
leen exposed to the infection. Bacter-io-
krgi'rrs all aver the world devoted them -
miles cs with great assiduity to the stuly
of flies problem, with the result that
key are now beginning to understand
tho subject, although there are still coir
&ire points which must be cleared up
lu fore the fulfilment of Pasteur's ero-
phecy that the time will come when it
will be l:ossible to exterminate oil in-
fectious
n-
fecticous diseases.
'i'lrere are two theories regarding the
way in which the body reFrsts an in-
vasion of tire bacteria of disease- the
chemical, advanced by Ehrlich, a Ger-
man bacteriologist, and the mechanical,
discovered by the Russian scientist,
elekhnikoff, now at the Pasteur Insti-
tute in Paris.
Accord.ng to the first, when the speci-
fy 1:oironl elaeorate'd by the bacteria
gets into the blood, this fluid at once

6lanwe which eels as an antidote, coni-
Leining with the toxin and forming an

discovery of the untitoxin used in the
treatment of diphtheria was the result
of this theory.
The second theory Ls that certain cells
among which are some of the white
it,lcxod-(:orpuscles. act as an army of de -
tense. seizing upon the bacteria and de-
issin,yirrg them.
These Iwo theories are not really con-
tradictory, although they seem so, and
Wit processes are probably at work in
c•\ Pry case of successful resistance to
aro attack of infectious disease. Decent -
it has been found that the white
ttood-corpuscles, called ptiegocy'tes or
"eating cell:s," need assistance to en-
able them to destroy the bacteria, and
on this discovery is founded the opso-
bin theory. which will be discussed ill
a future article. --Youth's Companion. -

Lamberts story was faulty and con-
tradictory in several important parti-
culars upon his different examinations.
Once he said he never saw the brands
on the skin and another lime he said
he did, and he was also unsatisfactory
rt; to dates. But the chief fact which
told against Meikle was that the police
upon arresting Meikle found 27 of the
contpeny's sheep on his land and n
skin bearing the company's brand in a
building used as a smithy. These things
were not insurmountable. but Meikle's
defence was poorly handled. An at-
tempted alibi (which years after was
proved a good one) went to pieces and
acted as a toonherang against Meikle,
end the defence totally failed to lay
nosy adequate stress on the fact that on
the night Ief,re the alleged theft Lam-
bert, carrying a bag which he said con-
Ininel llankets, had visited \Ieikles

is Said.
After all there is coal enoup-h in the

Ing year to Donne.
R,•erutly a number of misleading arti-
et. s haw;' been given out, apparently on
tit . authority of the United States geolo-
gical survey, predicting the early ex-
haustion of the fuel supply. The g;e.o-
legidul survey did say the bituminous
.'e al fields alight be exhausted in an -
ether century, but the statement was
qualified in such a way it was evident
there would be coal enough for many
:ong years to come. '
'1'o correct these misleading ini,pres-
sions, Director Smith, of the survey has
given out an authoritative statement
prepared by !11. R. Campbell, who has
euuarge of the division of economic geo-
gy and fuck, and E. W. Parker, coal
t:,ining
expert and statistician.
The facts are that the estimate of the
t numinous coal fields prepared ly dr.
Campbell eleovs the total quantity cf
of al stored in the ground at about 2, -
?..)0,000.000,000 short tons. From Ilia
tt•ere has been extracted, accenting to
\lr Parker's statement, about 4.625,-
1.00,000 short tons. As'unhing for every

one-third of 1 per cent. of ttte total sup -

We produced and consumed in 1896,
in round numbers, 34:1,000;000 'short

000 tons of exhaustion, since less coal
rs lost per ton mined than fcorrtterly, et
leis rale, if no increase be allowed 'or
the bituminous coal supply wound last
alout 4.000 years. However, taking in-
to account the prolable rate, first, .,f
increase and later, decrease in produc-
thcn, experts of [!te geologicol bureau
are of opinion the bulk of cheaply ntin-
cd bituminous coal will be exhausted
within 200 more years. But when the
period of de rease in production sets
n, they say, the need for ttre fuel will
doubtless be supplied in a considerable
degree by lie utilization of other forces
of nature, thus extending the life of
':ie bituminous coal fields Still farther.
So far as anthracite coal is concern-
ed, predictions of exhaustion have been
Eased almost entirely on the estimates
by the Pennsylvania geological survey:
showing that there were originally in
the ground about 19,000,000 logg
lons of coal. For c\ ton of coal
reined one and one-half tons was lost.
This means only 7,301,000,000 tons, if
the original supply were recoverable.
ANTHRACITE FOR 70 'LABS.
Up to they close of 19(6 production
amounted approximately to 1,650.000,-
(160 tons, which would leave 6.150,00),-
(.(00 At the rate of almost 65.000.0(10
lens a year this supply would last about
rl:nety (nears.
Later estimates monde by \\elliam
Griffith, of Scranton, pa., placed the
quantity of minable anthracite in the
ground at the close of 1905 at 5.073:
7S6,750 long tons. Sire a then a trifle
over 600,000,000 tons have been min-
eu. leaving about 4,470,000,000 tons
mailable. lender this estimate, at the
rate of 65.000,000 tons a year, the sup-
ply would last only seventy years.
Against both these estimates niust be
set the fact that production \w111 not
be maintained at the present rate until
;he coal is gone.
The production of anthracite, experts
say, has about reached its maximum.
When it does begin todecrease t
rate
