PHYSIC AL FA TIGUE Does It Increase tlir* Susceptibility to Contagious Diseases? It has long been accepted that physical the susceptibility fatigue greatly increases to infectious dis¬ eases. Two French physicians have recently been endeavoring by means of experiments ,to confirm this view. They subjected a num¬ ber or white rats to severe exer¬ cise (running in a rotating cage) for four consecutive days, for seven hours each day. Eight of those 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 serve as a standard of comparison. The re suit was, that seven of the eight series animals belonging to the first succumbed, while all the animals of the second series sur¬ 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 asks why of in the literature current '‘Century” there are no lady humorists. He then gQes on to answer his question by explain¬ ing that from childhood man finds die sawdust dropping out of everything, worthlessness and soon discovers the of much that passes ior # valuable. Therefore he learns to smile and .sav: ‘‘Is it not ab¬ surd ?” instead of allowing his pas ion for something to adore over¬ rule his growing desire for truth. 1 >ut, on the other hand, a womans idols .are so much a part of her ,afo that when they are broken she cannot snap her fingers, nor seek mirth as an avenue of escape. Women may possibly grow satiri¬ cal, but satire is only a form ot humor. When life ceases to be in' ideal, ome way then holy, or at any rate woman’s creative fac¬ ulty ceases,” says the writer. “She ends where man’s talent as a hu * orist begins.” Every one a Fact.
