Pollen Treatment for Hay Fever
In the Woman’s clinic in Washington u cure for hay fever has been
perfected. It involves the placing of pollen of plants likely to cause hay
fever on tiny scratch marks on the fore arm of the patient. The pollen
causes a slight swelling around the scratch and the treatment is then di
rected against that specific pollen. The photograph shows a patient being
given the pollen treatment.

Lincoln, Neb.—The recurrence of an
attack of shell shock caused Thurman
K. Williamson, World war veterar., to
forget entirely that he was pledged to
marry a Sioux City (fa.) girl, and to
wed another girl whom he had met
but once. This was at Deer Lodge,
Mont., a year ago.
The District court here, at William
son’s request, has annulled the Mon
tana marriage, leaving him free to
to keep his former pledge. The Sioux
City romance was incubated after Wil
liamson's return from the war. Both
he and the girl are Catholics, and as
Williamson had contracted an unfor
tunate marriage in his early youth and
had been legally freed, it was neces
sary to wait for a dispensation from

Meanwhile Williamson went to Mon
tana, where he was made an under-
sheriff at Deer Lodge. While there
he kept up a constant correspondence
with his fiancee, and all of his spare
time was put in builidng a house for
their joint occupancy when all the ob
stacles had been cleared away. Wil
liamson developed into an expert in
runnings down bootleggers, and in one
of the raids was compelled, In self-

rence of his old army trouble, the re
sult of shell shock. Apparently the
attack came upon him suddenly. He
had but mailed a letter to his sweet
heart, in which he outlined the plans
he had made for their early reunion,
when memory left him. He met on
the street a girl to whom he had been

turned bis back on the girl, marched
out of the room, and promptly forgot
all about her. He never lived with

Details Given.
These details were necessarily fur
nished by friends of standing in Deer
Lodge, to whom the girl he had
wedded and promptly scorned turned
for aid and explanation. The affair
ended his usefulness as an officer in
Montana, and he came to Lincoln nnd
entered the State university as a stu
dent in mechanical engineering. He
is doing this as a federal government
vocational pupil, and is part of his
reward for the distinctive service that
he performed in the war, but which
left him open to attacks such as the
one that caused a sensation in Mon
tana.
Officials from Deer Lodge corrob
orated Williamson’s story in every de
tail. They said that he was a quiet
and gentlemanly chap, and not at all
inclined to the sensationalism that
marked his marriage there. The in
structors at the State university gave
testimony of his brilliance as a stu
dent. The court thereupon annulled
the Montana marriage.

meanwhile reached Williamson, nnd

Trapper Arrives From Alaska
With Cargo of Costly Furs.
More Ermine Trapped in Far North
Last Winter Than for Many Years—
Cessation of Importation from
Siberia Sends Price Up.
Seattle, Wash.—Of interest to mi
lady’s fashion creed and of potential
concern to father’s wallet is the ar
rival here from Ruby, Alaska, of Hugh
Sobel, trapper and trader, with a pack
of 2,300 ermine skins, one of the
scarcest of all the Northern fur-bear
ing animals.
This past winter more ermine were
trapped in the Far North than for
many years. They appear to fluctuate
in numbers periodically. Sobel arrived
at a time when fur dealers were look
ing for the ermine skins for summer
trade and will realize a nice profit
from his collection, parts of which he
trapped and most of which he traded
for from Indians.
Ermine is one of the few furs that
is never absolutely out of fashion.
With the exception of the Russian
sable and one or two others, there is
no fur that seems better able to main
tain its value than this. Its price, al
ways high, has been driven to new
levels on account of the cessation of
importations from Scandinavian lands
and Siberia.
It inhabits only the snowy regions
of the Far North, where its white
coat, blerfding with the surroundings,
gives it a ready means of escaping
from its enemies. In the summer the
fur is light brown, but at the advent
of fall it begins to turn white, with
the exception of the tip of the tail.
The metamorphosis of the ermine
from dull brown to purest white is
among the great wonders of nature.
The fame of the ermine as a crea
ture “patronized by royalty” dates
back to King Edward in, but this re
striction has long been removed.
Owing to the variation in the qual
ity of fur found on different animals
of the species, ermine is far harder
to “match” than any other skin.
GREAT DANES ADOPT LAMB
It Was Such a Dilapidated Little Mite
When Born That Mother Deserted
It, Then Dogs Took It Up.
Toledo, O.—A tiny, wobbly-legged
lamb snuggles down between two
great dogs in the animal house in the
zoo at Waldridge park here.
Recently Keeper Louis Scherer was
severely injured in a hand-to-hand
struggle with a giant ape, furnishing
a picture of stubborn hatred, but that
of the lamb and the • dogs shows a
striking contrast.
Half starved, temporarily blind and
suffering from the cold, the new-born
lamb was found in one corner of the
animnl yard. It was such a dilapidated
little mite that even the mother had
deserted it.
Keepers carried it into the animal
house, fed it warm milk out of a
bottle and greased its eyes and fur
nished it a cosy bed in a box near
the stove.
The two Great Dane 1 dogs, almost
as big as Shetland ponies, immediately
adopted the lamb. The lamb is now
several weeks old. It prefers, instead
of the bed provided for it, a place
between the two big dogs as they
sleep by the fire.
The tender care of the keepers and
the dogs has restored the lamb’s sight
and health.

Ever Thought Up—Supreme
Court Justice Is Director.
San Antonio, Tex.—It was a set
ting that beat anything Mack Sennett
ever thought up. A railroad train, a
Supreme court justice, a millionairess,
a young rancher, a midnight, a clerk
dashing to the station with license
firmly in ins grasp, a telephone call
to a preacher in his nighties—all of
this figured in the marriage here of
Weldon Bailey and Mrs. Electra Wag
goner Wharton a few days ago.
Mrs. Wharton, now Mrs. Weldon
Bailey, is the daughter of Mr. nnd
Mrs. W. T. Waggoner of Fort Worth.
Her father is a capitalist and cattle
man, one of the wealthiest in the en
tire South, and the bride herself is
reported to be worth $10,000,000.
Reverting to the setting. Mrs.
Wharton got aboard the train at Dal
las to go to Waco for a visit with a
friend. Weldon Bailey was on the
same train, en route through San An
tonio to his big ranch near Tucson,
Ariz. Weldon is the son of former
United States Senator Joseph Weldon
Bailey and Is a graduate of the Vir
ginia university law department.
On that same train was Chief Jus
tice Nelson Phillips of the Texas Su
preme court. A fourth passenger was
a little fellow carrying bow and ar
row, who got busy just as soon as
the conductor took up the tickets.
Bailey, Judge Phillips and Mrs.
Wharton were well acquainted and
It wnsn’t long before they were in
friendly conversation.
Bailey and Mrs. Wharton had been
so friendly during the two years of
their acquaintance thnt the boy with
the bow and arrow didn't have to
work hard, although it was a little un
usual to have the question popped
and the whole thing arranged on a
speeding train, with a dignified judge
as umpire.
So instead of getting off at Waco,
Mrs. Wharton continued on to San
Antonio and before the train reached
here Judge Phillips telephoned from
Austin to Thad Smith, district clerk,
who met the couple at the station and
handed them their license. Thnt was
at midnight. Next, Rev. D. D. South,
a Baptist preacher, was called from
his comfortable bed to answer the
phone and sleepily consented to per
form the ceremony at his home. He
had just time enough to change from
night clothes to day, when Bailey and
Mrs. Wharton arrived and in a few
moments it was all over but the pur
chasing of an extra ticket, only they
decided to go on to California instead
of the ranch for their honeymoon.

Has 63 Different Sections and Repr*
sents That Many Kinds of
Construction.
/Prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
Final series of tests on one of the
largest and most comprehensive road
experiments ever attempted began
March 27. Tills road, located at
i Bates, Illinois, was designed and con-
1 structed by the Illinois division of
I highways under the direction of Clif-
1 ford Older, chief highway engineer,
I with the bureau of public roads, Unit-
j ed States Department of Agriculture
' co-operating. It is two miles long
| and includes 63 different sections rep
resenting as many different methods
! and kinds of construction, having
j various thicknesses of concrete, cement
I grout and asphalt-filled brick as well
j as asphalt concretes and concrete with
rolled stone bases.
Since the completion of its construc
tion in April, 1921, a corps of engineers
has been kept busy making observa
tions for effect of temperature changes,
static and repeated loads and sub
grade conditions, thus collecting data
which when analyzed will supplement
the information necessary for the ra
tional design of roads.
The road will now be subjected to
the final test, that of very heavy truck
traffic, for the application of which
will be used a fleet of 10 motor trucks
received by the state from the sur
plus of the War department. At first
these trucks will be lightly loaded,
but as the test progresses the load will
be increased until a maximum is
reached giving a 12,000-pound rear
wheel load. The results will show
definitely the types of pavements
which can be expected to support

heavy traffic, as well as those which
will not satisfy the requirements of
such traffic conditions as might be ex
pected during the next 10 or 20 years.
The careful observation of the
various sections in the absence of
traffic which has formed the first part
of the investigation, it is expected, will
enable the engineers to ascertain the
structural weaknesses which cause
such failures as may take place in
the traffic tests.
After the experiment has been com
pleted, this road with its broken sec
tions replaced will form a part of Illi
nois federal aid project No. 13 from
Springfield, Illinois, to St. Louis, Mis
souri.
The test will be carried on under the
direction of Clifford Older, with H. F.
Clemmer in direct charge of the ex
perimental work and R. It. Benedict
in charge of the trucks and main
tenance. The bureau of public roads
will be represented by A. T. Gold-
beck and C. A. Hogentogler.
ROADS PAY DIVIDENDS f
A wagon with a load of 3,01*0 j
pounds required an average I
draft of 108 pounds on a gravel
road in dry condition, in a re
cent test at the Missouri College
of Agriculture. The same load
on a dry clay road required a
draft of 321 pounds. This shows
the great variation in the work
done in hauling aud in the size
of load a team can handle, says
J. C. Wooley, chairman of the
agricultural engineering depart
ment, which conducted tills test.
The gravel roads prove their
value even more completely un
der spring conditions. This load
on the same roads after a heavy
rain required a draft of ISO
pounds on the gravel, and 372
pounds on the clay. This is only
one of the many advantages of

Unnecessary Practice.
Oiling a concrete road or any prop
erly surfaced highway is not only a
nuisance to the public, but is a lament

H. H. Franklin, who claims that the
oiling system, a hold-over from the
experimental days, is no longer nec
essary and should be abandoned.
