we called on the Uruguayan consul

favorite beverage down here. In fact
very little tea is used. Matte grows
on a 100' bush very to the tea
plant but instead of oblong it has
lanceolate leaves. The leaves are
picked and dried in a similiar sway
to tea but the method of drinking it
is peculiar. They have a dish made
of some kind of wood which is in
shape a very much flattened .sphere
with a bole in the outer 'periphery.
This bowl is partially filled with the
dried leaver, and boiling water pour-
ed on it, anti the infusion is sucked
up through a hollow, spoon shaped
affair. The guest of Honor is offer-

When a number of people sit down
for a little conversation the matte
bowl begins to circulate en this
particular case I think I had five or
six fills of the bowl.
Matte (pronounced ma-tay) is a
favorite with all classes. The poor
man has his kettle for hot water
slung over an open fire, while the
more well-to-do man has an alcohol
lamp or of late a primus burner. These
are the same models as are used on
polar expenditions. The rehervoir for
oil is airtight and there is an air
pump. When air is pumped into the
reservoir the oil is forced up to the
burner, but before reaching the noz-

flames and is volatilized, This gives
a great' heat and besides is very elli-
cient. When starting a burner it is
necessary first to heat the nozzle, us -

Canadian prairies, there are few trees
except in the river valleys though,
thanks to Government encouragement
many thousands of acro have been
planted in forest. Eucalyptus thrives
and the Oregon pine and northern fir
seem to grow as well here as is
their native- home.
There is little here in the way of
natural scenery, whish the writers of
guide books find so useful in writing
uli a country. The only place I rem-
ember having seen, which struck me at
all, was the valley of Tanbores. Sud-
denly leaving behind the undulating
grass -covered estancias, the railway
enters the valley. On one side is the
precipituous rocky river bank, whil
beneath, on the other side, rushes
a river, winding in and out among
trees and shrubs, a..decided relief from
the plains. Here and there through
breaks in the river bank one can see
a range of low tnountains rising dark
blue against the Sky.

THE RiDDLE OF CANCER.
New Theories About the Disease and
the Search For Cure.
More has been learned about cancer
during the lastten years than during
the previous ten centuries, which is
only another way of saying during the
entire history of medicine. It has been
negative, it is time, but the work of
elimination has now been completed..
li'e are at last 00 the right track.
One after another of the old theories
of its origin has been eliminated. It
has been suggested that it is caused
by eating fish or flesh or tomatoes or
cheese, or what not. But facts do not
support any of these theories. It was
once supposed to be a white man's dis-
ease and not to be found among the
uncivilized. That is now known not
to be the case. It is found among all
races, to a less degree among the un-
civilized, but nevertheless among them.
All vertebrates aro .subject to it. Itis
not now thought to be hereditary, con-
genital or ordinarily communicable.
What, then, is it? By careful study
of infected mice and rats the theory
has, been evolved that cancer is due to
independent cellular activity. Cancer
Is not Something that comes into the
body from the outside. It Is some-
thing which grows up from the inside.
It is as though certain cells of the
body grew up and went wrong, as
though certain soldiers in the army
turned traitors and fought their own
brothers. Why this is so we do not
yet know.
There has been found in some ani-
mals a natural immunity from cancer,
and that immunity can be artificially
induced. This immunity' is either ac-'
tire or ,passive. The Crocker fund
has found it possible to immunize ant -
mals iJy injections of killed cancer e
cells prepared in such a manner as to
leave intact the active substances.
Moreover, cases of "spontaneous 1eeov-
ery of human patients are known to
exist. Wb:' c11d they recover? They
can only bo accounted for if such a
thing as immunity does really exist.
The ,problem is to find out what this
immunity is and how to produce it.
Its existence is certain. Dr. Ehrlich,
for instance, has done much in the
study of artificially produced Immu-
nity from cancer in small animals.
He has found that if mice are inocu-
lated with an inactive strain of caneer
they throw it off, and later if an ac-
tive cancer strain is inoculated they
have acquired immunity from it.
Almost any time now one may bear
that some rine has at last read this rid -
die of cancer.—llletropolitan-Magazine.
