germs, and that in a person whose

IMPROVED HEALTH..
In the patients experimented up •
on, who in every instance have eu-
joyed greatly improved health dur-
iing the year or more which has
elapsed since their operations, a
number of new germs have been
'discovered. Those are thought to
be harmless germs whose action, if
any, is beneficial to the system.
Further studios of their action aro
to be pureued.
Dr. Distaso takes with him for
further study at the Pasteur Insti-
tute e Paris, two persons who are
excellent examples of the benefit
bo health resulting from the remov-
al'of the lower intestine. . Practi-
cally bedridden before the opera-
tion about four years ago, these
two patients are now in robust
health,. and have put on, in each
case, almost forty pounds in weight.
During their month's stay all their
expenses will be paid by the.Pas-
tour Institute.

BLOND HEADS IN HISTORY.

They Have Played Great Historical
Roles.
It. is certain that blond, long
headed men once played a great
-`role in history, for' it was: they who
colonized Galatia and brought home
the treasures of Greece and Italy
to Toulouse, who overthrew the Ro-
man empire:in the west and won
England from the Britons. It is
equally certain that this physical
type was once much more dominant
and widely distributed than it is
now and that it is tending to ore

pronounced form of blond which is
distinguished by red hair. Red

DISMISSED BY A QUEEN.
English Nurses Forced to Leave
Greek Hospital.
The Greek newspapers report
that Queen Olga has dismissed the
English matron and three nurses
at the military hospital in Athens.
Queen Olga, for somewhat nar-
row patriotic motives, desired the
Crown Princess, who was patroness
of the instution, to employ only
Greek nurses. But the Princess,
who is half English, being the
daughter of the late Empress Fred-
erick, declined to agree, as it was
generally recognized that the Eng-
lish nurses were better trained than
the Greek nurses, and also that the
matron was doing much to improve
the training of nurses in the coun-
try,
Political influences were, bow -
ever, brought into play, and the
Crown Prinoess finally decided to
resign her position as patroness.
The Queen sueceeded her, and 1131—
mediately dismissed the English
nurses and matron. It is said that
they will bring an action for breach
of contract, as the term of their
engagement has not expired.
"Fred—"Yes, I like him well
enough, Minnie, but how did you
ever happen to marry a man a
head shorter than you are?" Min-
nie—"I had to choose, Fred, be-
tween a little man with a big sal-
ary and a big man with a little
salary."
"If I were younger," said the
rich old man, "I believe I might
win you for my wife." '`Yes," re-
plied the cold beauty, dreamily con-
sidering his sixty-five years; or,
say, fifteen years older."
