There is a story going the rounds among the undergraduates or a certain university which, If it can be substan• dated, puts the modern scientifle inves. tigator to shame. Arnold Gereau, an. sistant professor of chemistry—he has charge of the laboratory—is one of those phenomena who spring up once In a century. He is very young, and it is well known that he was born witb certain mental powers, a certain ma pernatural knowledge of things on eg_tiseh many a man has studied for a lifetiMei without making any progress WlIIbtif eaaWAela Stockbridge, a Member of the class of '15, so the story gots,. ens day wept to Professor Gateau with a yellow bit Of petonwhich was writ. teen in Al English style: -- Thls is the body el William Arbuckle, priVate In bla nufjesty's —th foot. Cap- in the Patriot lines with maps show- ing our hrtilications on the upper part of Manhattan Island, Ile was condemned for a spy. An Indian serving with the swine regiment—he had Joined it at Singe- tore—proposed to General Washington to put the man to sleep tor an indefinite peri- od instead of executing him. The general. who was averse to the execution, consent- ed, and Arbuckle was turned over to the Indian, who claims that any time after fifty or even a hundred years life will Still be in the body. But not one man in many minions win 136 able to effect a resurrection. Young Stockbridge told the professor that in excavating for building pur- poses on the upper part of Manhattan Island on property owned by his family a tomb had been discovered containing the bOdy of a man in British uniform of a former period. The paper had been found in the lead coffin in which the body had been buried. Gereau—mind you, I don't vouch for this—arranged with the student to bring the find to the laboratory, which at the time was closed on account of the spring recess and would therefore be at the professor's individual dis- posal. No one has attempted to give the process by which Gerean manipta iated the remains of Private Arbuckle, but it Is claimed that he effected a resurrection. The professor avers that he worked on lines which are being followed by modern scientific investi- gators, He must have had an inkling of the method by which animation was suspended by the Indian or he would not bare been able to restore it by reverse action, which, be says, he applied. Ele gives as a fundamental principle that the Indian knew how to suspend—not kill—the action of the heart, and Gereau restored the pulsa- tions, which are the basis of ilanimal Whether the story is true or false there is one part of It that fits in with modern scientific investigation.

Gereau at once tele- phoned to the College of Physicians and Surgeons for a pair of sound kid- neys and, removing the ones ,affected, introduced tbe new ones. flestipposed for some time that Arbuckle lied died under the operation, but half a bottle of Teeth whisky brought him round. The liver was next tackled, and half of it replaced. There were other parts to be substituted, but those mentioned were the principal replacements. Tbese operations required several hours, and another hour passed before Private Arbuckle spoke. Then he opened his eyes and cried out in a voice that seemed to come through dry leather: "Corporal of the guard:" Gereau was delighted. It looked as it he might save his patient, for while the man had doubtless been deanimat- ed in good health his being brought back to consciousness was not only a difficult matter. but n dangerous one. Theresare several versions of the rest of the story. Some say that A.rbuckle was sufficiently restored to remember and speak of his expected execution. Others aver that Gereau, finding Ms breathing defective, worked his arms vigorously, but in spite of his efforts the man died. It is said that at one time Arbuckle sat up and was given a stiir drink.

CANADA LEAD PRODUCT/9N Year 1925 Reached a Record Figure for Outputs A new Canadian record in lead output was established in 19:15 when the recovery totalled 253,590,578 pounds, an advance of 44.5 per ce,nt above the previous high reeord o.f 175,485,499 pounds set up last year acoording to a statement issued by the Mining, Metallurgical and Chemi- cal Branch of the Dominion Bureau of Statistics, at Ottawa, giving final- ly revised statistics on the production of this metal in 1925. This large increase was caused mainly by the greater production of the famous Sullivan Mine which is owned and operated by the Consoli- dated Mining and Smelting Company of Trail, British Columbia, Other mines in British Columbia also reported increases shipments during the year. The other lead pro- ducing provinces namely, Quebec, Ontario and the Yukon Territory all showed increases in production, The total value of the production WaS $28,127,460, the average price 9.1.2 cents per pound. British Columbia mines accounted for slightly more than 95 per cent of the total ontput or 242,454,502 pounds. Ontario contributed about 8 per cent; zine -lead properties in t2tiebec yielded slightly ermee than tlaree-quattere of one per cent, and the Ithete dietrict in the Yukon sup. RIM the letilanete VITAMINS A. B, AND C. INDISPENCIABLR CONSTITUENTS IN NORMAL DIRT. Some Simple Facts About Nutrition Which Will Greatly Contribute to tirowth and Health. (Contributed by Ontario Department 01 Agriculture, Toronto.) The vitamins are indispenre.able con- otituonts of a uormal diet. What Is a normal diet? Well a normallaliet must fulfil the following conditions: (1) The diet must be quantita- tively sufficient. (2) The diet must contain a sual- clant amoant of protein, fat, and car- bonhydrate, s (3) The diet must contain the necessary inorganic alts. (4) The diet must contain a cer- tain amount oe various amino acids. (6) The diet must contain the three vitamins .A, B, and 0. The animal body is unable to manufacture vitamins and they are essential to its lite. Hence the ani- mal body requires a fairly continu- ous supply of the vitamins, and the only way it eau obtain them is by eating freah vegetable foods or by eating the flesh or milk of other animals. Vitamin A, is the most stable of the three, and animals posseas con- siderable powers of storing this vita- IRAji eleate fat. Vitamin 0 is the least Roble. 121114 growing animals are the molt suaceptible to vitamin shorN. quick growing and pregnant animals requiris an abundant supply of vita - Mina. Fully mature animate; do not feel vitamin shortage in their feed to the same extent as paling animals •—a-ae-eatere- Vigeiene A. ..-e...e.eiatal :re ang Vital RT. is synthesized by chloro- phyll containing plants only, d richest vegetable source are the the green leaves and growing parts of plants. Seedlings grown without light do not produce Vitamin A. Ani- mals feeding on green plants store Vitamin A in their fat deposits, so we find it abundant in meat fat, egg yolk and in milk fat. Marine ani- mals feeding largely on the green growth of numerous water plants store large quantities of Vitamin A. Cod liver and shark liver oils are very rich In this substance. The amount of Vitamin A in the meat fat and milk fat depends entirely on the amount of vitamin in the feed con- sumed by the animal. The fat of grass-fed animals is rich in vitamin when compared with the fat of ani- mals fed on the dry feeds of winter. It has been noted•by all feeders that the summer milk is more satisfactory in the feeding of young animals. The -chief diseases produced ia animals deprived of vitamin A are: (1) Arrested growth and Keratoma- lacia; (2) Lowered resistance to bac- terial infection. (3) Marked effect on reproductive function, sterility. (4) Rickets and deficient dentition. Vitmin R. The body does not store this vita- min and certain animals, if deprived of foods that contain it, for a few weeks 'develop Polyneuritis, or show a decline in body -weight and muscu- lar inco-ordination. In young ani- mals deprived of foods containing Vitamin B the arrest .of growth and the injurious effect on the nervous system is more marked than It is with older animals. Vitamin B is very widely distributed, being present in nearly all forms of plant life, parti- cularly in seeds and yeast. The bran or husk of seeds and the germ are the portions what.° it is to be found. Highly -milled grain products are very Jeer in ,Vitamin B. Look to green vegetables, whole grain, unpolished rice, railk, for this vitamin. Vitnan C. Young auimais deprived of foods containing Vitamin 0 develop tender- ness and swelling of the Joints, ten- derness of the gums, loosening of the teeth and a marked wastage of all the lymphoid tissues. Vitamin occurs hi alagrowIng vegetable tissue, as green vegetables, roots, grass and fruits. Small quantities are present In fresh meats and milk. The animal body cannot store Vitamin 0 so must depend upon supplies coming regu- larly in the feed. During winter, sprouted grains and roots are the two main sources of this vitamin for live stook as poultry and pigs. General Effects. Lack of vitamin in the food of ani- mals produces effects that resemble starvation. Youug suffer more tban maturce. Aow: cannot manufacture vita- mins and put such in the milk. Hence the vitamin content of milk (which is the most important food of young) depends entirely upon the vitamin content or the cow's food, See that she gets a good liberal allowance of green alfalfa.—L.

The lining of the nose, eye, sacs below ae eye, the larynx and trachur are attacked and occasionally pneutn onia develops. Weak birds are most susceptible.

The first charge for violation of this law was laid before Magistrate Shields at Oakville on June 23rd. The defenclent was aceused of offer- ing American strawberries for sale in the 415 quart berry boxes former- ly used. He was found guilty and a ninirnum fine of ten dollars was imposed. The Dominion Fruit Commessioner expresses the hope that this convic- tion will serve as a warning ta other dealers in berries throughout the district. He also urges that consum- ers should always insist on the f all - sized boxes of either one nint or one quart when purchasing berrtee. -51 MY LADY'S + 4' COLUMN. + 4) 14 EASY TO WEAR The pleated skirt is much more at- tractive than the plain one with the summer tailleurs, and is particularly adapted to the short length that is am the vogue.

Ar Advertin •The purchasing public is daily becoming greater readers of advertisements. The reason for this is that they profit by so doing. They find the goods they want described in the right manner. It is news CO the purchaser. That being the case, it behooves the wide- awake and sti-aight-dealing merchant to study his advertising matter carefully, so that when .,. the customer comes in to buy, he or she will find that the goods are as represented. Those who do not read advertisements are losers. Make it a part of your reading to go over the advertisements of the merchants. By so doing you will know where to find the best bargains. Also you will learn whether the goods are as represented. Merchants are studying the needs of their customers.
