PHYSICAL FATIGUE
Does It Increase tlie Susceptibility f*
Contagious Diseases?
It has long been accepted that
physical the susceptibility fatigue greatly to infectious increases dis¬
eases. Two French physicians
have recently been endeavoring by
this means view. of experiments They subjected to confirm
a num
<ber of w%ite rats to severe exer¬
cise (running in a rotating cage)
for ,four consecutive days, for
seven hours each day. Eight of
these tired out animals were in¬
oculated with attenuated anthrax
virus, four animals in a normal
condition of health being inocula¬
ted with the same virus at the
same time, in order to ser v ve as a
standard of comparison. The re¬
sult was, that seven of the eight
animals belonging to the first
series succumbed, while all the
animals of the second series
vived. The authors thus explain
the curious tendency of' epidemics
to break out among soldiers dur¬
ing great manoeuvres and on cam¬
paign, and they urge that many a
a soldier is rendered suscepitible
to disease by fatigue who would
have otherwise escaped.
Why Women Are Not Humorous.
A writer in the open letter de¬
partment of the current “Century”
asks why in literature there are no
lady humorists. He then goes on
to answer his question by explain¬
ing that from childhood mail* finds
the sawdust dropping out of
everything, worthlessness and soon discovers the
of much that passes
for valuable. Therefore he learns
to smile and say: “is it not ab¬
surd ?” instead of allowing his p
sion for something to adore over
ride his growing desire fur truth.
E>ut, on the other hand, a woma n’s
idols are so milch a part of her
life that when they are broken she
mirth cannot snap her fingers, nor seetc
as an avenue of escape.
Women may possibly grow satiri¬
cal, but satire is only a form of
humor. When life ceases to be in
ideal, some way holy, or at any rate
then woman’s creative fac¬
ulty ceases,” says the writer. “She
ends where man’s talent as a hu¬
morist begins.”
