Sr. Beltran-Masses came to Ameri ca a few months ao and was a house quest of Rodolph Valentino at Holly wood. He was lavishly entertained j by the film colony and at one of these social functions was presented to Miss Davies. He immediately de termined she was the most beautiful woman on the American screen or stage and requested that jno permit him to paint her portrait. The sittings were accomplished be tween scenes of Miss Davies' "Lights of Old Broadway," a Cosmopoiitnn production for Metro-Golwyn-Maycr now playing at the Waynewood Thea tre, and then in production in Cali fornia. On its completion the por trait was exhibited with many others of the artist's works at the Ambas sador Hotel, Los Angeles. At the exhibit it attracted such unusual attention that . the subject was brought up as to whether it should be taken to Spain and offered to the Royal Academy for exhibition purposes or whether it would adorn Miss Davies' home in New York. Thus "far the question has not been settled, but it is very likely it will be sent to the Spanish capital. The artist has named the picture, "The voice of Spring," and it depicts the little lady standing on a grassy knoll, her arms outstretched and her gown swaying in the gentle California breeze. It is done in oils and the coloring is vivid. "I have met many beautiful wom en," says Sr. Beltram-Masses, "but there are few who would dare com "LIGHTNING" THE lightning may strike where It will but there is always a definite 'reason for Its willing, to sirike where it does. Every year, during the summer season, persons are struck and killed by lightning. It would be more cor rect to say that persons are struck and stunned by lightning and later die from neglect. Most persons Stun ned by lightning could be resusci tated If speedy and proper treatment could be given. The Intense straight flasnes are the most dangerous. The slg-ias flashes are seldom dangerous an J tho sheet lightning never dangerous. Just as the person instantly killed by a bullet never hears the report of tho gun so the person struck by lightning does not hear the thunder. By the time we hear the thunder the danger from that stroke has passed. When a thunder storm approaches do not seek shelter under a tree with thick foliage. This is especially dan gerous If you have already gotten wet. Your body is a better conduc tor than the trunk of the tree and by standing under such a tree your body forms a line of discharge to the ground. Probably more people re killed by lightning In this way than all other ways. When In a group of persons one is struck and the others not It Is because the body of that person is a better conductor than the others. The person lying flat on the ground Is always safe. Do not stand In the doorway of either barn or house nor at the win dow near a chimney. Lightning, to some extent, follows the currents of air through doors and up the chim ney, especially warm air.

An Instance Is recalled of a perfectly healthy child who on one occasion was stung on the linger by a bee and within a few min utes was completely prostrate. Both eyes were swollen shut and the entire body greatly disfigured. The heart action and respiration were greatly disturbed and the child appeared dan gerously 111. There were at the home of th child many colonieB of bees and the child was frequently stun;; and always with marked reaction, but only this one time was it so severe-. ; That child possessed a peculiai sensitiveness to the protein injected by the bee when stinging. The father of that child felt a bee sting like the prick of a pin, but the place could scarcely be found a few minutes later. The father was immune (o that kind of foreign protein. In exactly the same way, many peo pie are hypersensitive to various foreign proteins. When grasses and plants blossom they give off pollens which Hot as foreign proteins to which some people are peculiarly susceptible. When these pollens in the air get onto (he mucous membranes of eyes, nose and throat of susceptible persons they set up violent reactions. Tho In-itHliiiR substance causes reddening )f the conjunctiva, and swelling of the 'r ducts. There is increased secre tion of tears which cannot drain off through the swollen shut tear dints and iience the eyes "water". In the mucous mombrane of nose and throiii there is the same rondition. In an effort to expel the irritur t there is n'lich sneezing. When the nasal pus rages become no swollen that it is hard to breathe through the nose. the patient bPEins breathing through tV mouth. If the patient still remains In ft polluted atmosphere then tliesf ir ritating pollens nre inhaled directly into the lungs where the bronchi am; bronchioles become congested so that breathing is dimVti-t. This stage i called asthma. The entire body is equally sensitive except wbfre the outer protective lay er of the epidermis prevents the ab Sorption of these poliens. If this pro tective layer of epidermis is broken by a slight pin scratch and the offend lng pollen applied to the scratch there will result a red and swollen wheal. By utilizing this point the physician is enabled to use test pollens on scratches In the skin and thus deter mine the exact pollen or pollens which cause the individual d. image. In many cases frequently repeated small in jections pt an extract of the offending pollen will finally produce in the in dividual a degree of relative im munity. Many things other than plant pol lens 'cause hay fever and asthma. Winder of horses, dogs, cats, feathers and many fobds cause severe reactions in some people.
