Jul/ 31.—Americans visiting Europe received a shock today when it was annunced the sailing of the steamship Impera tor from Hamburg for New Yoik ha l been cancelled owing to the unsettled situation. There was a rush to the steam ship offices in an endeavor to bo >k passages bu f few or none wer) to be had as a 1! ships were filled to the capacity until the middle of September. Business mm to whom it was im peratively necessary to get back to America ofTeieJ a premium for for bookings but even then could not accomodations. Claims Seeing by Electricity i Electrical experts have for several years teen promising an invention by which people could see by electricity; could see the person spoken to on the telephone a thousand miles away. At a meeting of the Institute of Automobile Engineers the other day in London. Dr. A. M. Low 1 gave a demonstration, he claims for the first time in public, with an apparatus he has invented tor seeing bv elctricitv. He claims that it is possible for persons us injf a telephone to see each other at the same time. He said. "In time, say fifty years from now, people sitting in a room in London will be able to witness a scene taking place on the deck of a steamer in mid- Atlantic." This new idea ot seeing by electricity suggests th.es j spiritual eyes and increased visions in the psalmist's words: Open thou ltfine eyes, that J mav behold wondrous things out ot thy law. i Ps. Ill': IS. I Strange fossils Are Found In Old England. London, Aug. 1. —Authorities a f the South Kensington Museum of Natural History have determin ed that the fossil banes of a lion's leg and of a mammoth's hip which, were recently dis covered teet below the surtace of Fleet street belong to the Pleist' eer.e peri o d. lhese prehistoric re ics were found within yards of the spot where the skull of a whoollv rhinoceros, b ip.es of the reindeer and of the extinct great ox and horse were found several years ago. It is common enough to find Roman relics when excavating in i the center, or "city," of London, ] but fossils of the Pleistocene age i are so rare as to be of striking interest to the geologists. F. E. Beddard, F. R. S., answers the question as to how these animals made their way into the British , Isles : "Duiing the period of the earth's history which saw these , great beasts grazing on the plains of northern Europe and Asia," he said, "England was not divo.ced from the continent, and the Thames (lowed on to join the Rhine." A Fine Example. How a minister may call the attention of the children of his church and Sunday school to 1 their relations to the animal world was well illustrated the other day, according to the story of a friend who called. He w;.s in Sittsfield, Massachusetts, at a Sunday service. The minister had prepared a special program for the day. This program con tained a litany, a part of which - read as follows: >' "From profanity, untruth -2 fulness, vulgarity, and impurity: ; from showing disrespect to the ' poor, the aged and the deformed, and from all cruelty to beasts - and animals: ; "Good Lord deliver us." What coul i be finer as a Dart I of the weekly service of every Sunday school? F. H. P.. THE DANBURYRETORR Radium and Cancer. The radium treatment of cancer has aroused public discussion only equaled in sensationalism by the popular furore over the Friedmann treatment for tuberculosis. That this substance has some value in the treatment of cancer cannot be denied, but unfortunately the public has gotten an exaggerated impres sion of its effects, and radium has been hailed as the long-wait ed specific cure for malignant disease. In the belief that a statement of results would be useful, the American Society for the Control of Cancer recently asked Dr. H. 11. Janeway of New York to prepare an article »n this subject, which has just been published in the Journal of the American Medical Associa tion. in which the following comments appear : "Dr. Janeway discusses the results secured with radium at the four orincipal institutions in I]urope where it has been employ ed under the most favorable con ditions, viz, Paris, London, Vienna, and Heidelberg. The reports from each of these European institutes justify the statement that radium exerts a selective and desti active action 011 the majority of cancers, but that this action never reaches to the more distant extensions of the deeper and more serious fo>iiis of the disease. In fact, there is good ground for belief that unless the greatest care is used in the application of radium the more distant portions of the cancer will be stimulated to more active growth. All users of radium emphatically express the belief that no operable cancers except those of the skin should be treated by radium in preference to operation. The ti ue position of radium at present is that it does not cure the dis ease unless the cancer is superficial or »■* rif a variety particularly to its intluenca. "For the last nine years, I)r. Wickham of Paris has treated l.oiiii cancer patients at the Laboratoire Kiologique du lladi- urn, and has found that, while th* ini'.uence of radium on all types of cancer is favorably, its effects do not extend to the limits of the disease in the most super ficial varieties. The Radium In stitute of London treated 467 cases during 1912. No patient has been classified as cured, since cancer is not regarded as cured until at least three years have elapsed without recurrence of the disease. Of K>l patients with the slow-growing, benign form of cancer of the skin, 31 were apparantly cured, 41 were 1 improved, and 12 did not im i prove. In cancer of the rest of ' the body, 1.1 cases were apparant ' ly cured, 15»> improved, and 4"» i which did not improve. i At the Vienna Radium Institute . of 34 patients treated for all forms of cancer, i died during 1 the treatment, 11 were essentially - improved, f> were slightly im proved, and 3 were made worse. At the Samaritan Hospital in Heidelberg improvement was produced in aoout half of the cases, but no patient was cured. '•' The establishment of the fact . that we have in radio-activity an agent which will even specifically • atfect cancer is of very great ? importance. No other agent , has been discovered which in ' any degree approaches its effect iveness. But from the evidence t at hand, it clear that at present radium may only supplement '' but not replace, treat . t ment." f»flS»Sr! fAfctjiAfra : What is it that makes good - values ?

(Conducted Bv the Wonians' I'nion Missionary Society of Oanbury.) With Modern Tools. The American Baptist Publi cation Societv has 11!> men in the home of mission field, seven of tliem with chapel cars, sixty wagons, four with colportage automobiles and three with little Gospel steamboats. The story of the work of these men is full of thrilling interest. Truiy romatic are the careers of Captain:? G. Leßoy Hall, master of the Life Line, which cruises on Coos Pay. Oregon: W. E. Story of the Osc'ola on the Sacramento River California, and W. R. Howell of the R >bt. (I. Seymour, which is 'just beginning its work on Hood's Canal and among thi San Juan Islands. 111 seven months Cap tain Hall visitid over five hun dred unchurched families, held seventeen prayer meetings, de livered 17!> sermons and address es organized two Sunday schools and one church. They are some Value of Cottonseed Meal. The increasingly hi;/!: price of meat stiumlating the search for other foods supply t!,,- protein that is obtained from meat in the ordinary diet. Experiment | recently carried out in Texas by .1. B. Rather point to cottonseed meal as promising food in this connection. This cheap sub stance is extremenly rich in pro tein. Mr. Rather finds that a pound of digestible protein is twenty-one times as expensive in eggs and fifteen times as expensive in meat as it is in cottonseed meal. Numerous ex periments in the use this food were made on human subjects. It was found that the meal could not be used alone, but in order to bo palatable, had to be mixed with corn meal or wheat Hour the cottonseed meal forming not more than one fifth of the mix ture. In this form it was made , into L-read, muffins, cake, etc., ' by the ordinary recipes. In the dietary, it does not occupy the the place of bread or cake, but of meat, which should be partly ; or wholly dispensed with when the cottonseed meal is used. . Diluted as above described, few people will be able to eat ! more than two ounces of cotton ! seed meal daily. In addition to times held aboard the vessel in - stead of on shore, the whistle ! taking the place of the church , bell. Captain Story who speaks t seven different languages, has 1 a fiuld of over six hundred miles ,of diked waterways and »I forty islands, thickly populated ! without religious privileges. Not only .Japanese and other foreign -3 ITS. but Americans as well, are , altogether without religious op -1 portunities except such as Cap tain Story brings them with his »: Gospel boat. We said with new tools, but ; after all it is old business, t prea?hirtg the Gospel from a » boat. May these brave men 1 have the blessing of the Man of ■ Galilee upon their work! For ■ the facts contained in this lesson ijwe are indebted to Mrs. William ■ James Sly, who contributes an • article on this subject to the June number of number of I 'service. 1 " i protein, cottonseed meal contains j nearly as much digestible fat i and carbohydrates as beef tlank, i and more than beef loin or leg ;of mutton. Wnether the long- 1 continue:! use of this food, to , the complete exclusion of meat; would be healthful, is, for the' I ! present, doubtful, in view of the well-known and still mysterious toxic elFect of cottonseed meal when used in large amounts and for a long period in feeding stock. Whips. | I The Horse Lover tells us that 1 there are fiftyseven factories in the United State? manufacturing whips or parts of whips. These establishments employ 13 H! workmen. The value of the out put is $3,949,643. We are sorry j to have to say that more than one half of all the whips made in this ! country are manufactured in Massachusetts though we vent ure the statement that as small a per cent, of them is used in this ! State as in any other of the Un ion, population considered. Our own exparience has been that good oats and 'hay and the right sort of care and kindness iare far cheaper in the end than whips. • F.
