SIR GEORGE TURNER FORSAKES
TITLE FOR THE SUFFERERS.
Is Victim of Dread Disease Himself,i
and Thinks There Is Great Possi- |
bility of Discovering a Cure. !
London.—Although Sir George Tur
ner is afflicted with leprosy as the result \
of his heroic self sacrifice in working
among lepers in South Africa, he has |
no intention of abandoning his active'
work among the sufferers from that |
disease, but has decided to devote thei
remainder of his life to lepers.
He has just offered his services tol
the mission to lepers in India and the
east, but it is felt that there is greater
scope for his work in South Africa,
where he knows all the conditions, and
he will probably return to that field of
labor. He is full of brave hope that he
may be able to do something more for{
his fellow sufferers. i
In an interview Sir George said that‘
his treatment of lepers thus far had
been on the general principles of mak- |
ing lepers more comfortable and re‘
tarding the advance of the disease. |
There wuas a great possibility, he
thought, that some remedy might bei
found.
“Generally speaking,” he said, ‘“peo
ple have a very erroneous idea with re
gard to the contagiousness of leprosy.
In my opinion leprosy is usually, if not

’ ahways, spread by contagion, but most
lepers are not nearly so dangerous to
the public as a person suffering from
phthisis.”
Since the terrible day that he made
the dread discovery that he was a vic
tim of leprosy Sir George has lived in
comparative retirement near Exeter.
He has received numerous invitations
to social functions and has invariably
replied:
“1 will come if you don’t mind my
being a leper.”

SENATOR JAMES A. O'GORMAN. |
with that privilege. The defeat of the |
Jones bill giving entire control to the
islanders within eight years is assured.
Senator O’Gorman, who is opposed to
fixing any definite time for giving the
Filipinos a free hand, takes the view
that they may not be equal to the task
for one or two generations or even
longer. As the senator from New York
is close to Governor Wilson, it may be
assumed that he has so advised the
president elect. The granting of inde
pendence to the Philippines is of so
little urgency that the question will
not even be taken up by the senate at
the forthcoming special session of con
gress, according to Senator O’Gorman.
Senator Simmons, who probably will
be chairman of the committee on
finance; Senator Martin and other
Democratic senators more than
enough to prevent overturning the
present system of administering the
affairs of the Philippines—are inclined
to oppose the Jones bill. Ounly a few
Democrats, such as Senator Johnston,
favor giving the Philippines independ
ence at once.
Others, like Senator Gore and Sena
tor Stone, say that the islands should
be neutralized, if that could be accom
plished, remaining under the protec
tion of the United States, before any
step in the direction of autonomy is
taken. But the more conservative
view that it is best to wait until the
educational work undertaken by the
United States has shown its effect
seems to prevail generally.
The Jones bill granting the islands
an independent government within
eight years is se far from the minds
of Democratic senators that few have
considered the question at all.
Senator Williams, who was one of
the originators of the so called
“pridge governwment” for the gradual
relinquishment o control over the is
lands, expressed the opinion that the
time fixed should not be less than
eight years and that the United States
should retain a certain control over the
relations of the island with foreign
governments by the appointment of
an American secretary for foreign af
fairs, who should be responsible to the
state department in Washington, and
the¢ the granting of independence
should not take place for a much
longer time than eight years, certainly
not less than fifteen.
Senator Martin took the ground that
there is no immediate necessity for
taking up the Philippine question now.
He thought that the Jones bill allowed
too short a time for the transition.
In view of the attitude of the leaders
in the senate, which undoubtedly has
been made known to Governor Wilson,
it is not probable that either the ex
ecutive or legislative department after
March 4 will take any step toward
abandoning the control of the United
States over the Philippines, which, as
President Taft said, is so necessary to
their own well being.

After reading of so many people in
our town who have been cured by

equally successful in our neighboring

for doubt en this point:
Mrs. J. E. Phillips, Sylvester, Ga.,
says: “Off and on for several years
I suffered from kidney compfilnt,
and I took many remedies without
being able to get relief until I pro
cured Doan’s Kidney Pills. A short
time ago I began their use, and I
have already received great benefit.
The dull pain across my back has left
me, and my entire system has been
toned up. I do not hesitate to say

HE INVENTS “COLD LIGHT"
A FRENCH SCIENTIST DEMON
STRATES HIS ILLUMINATER.
Places Discovery at Disposal of His
Government, Which Is Experi
menting at Lighthouses.
Paris.—The *“cold light” is a new in
vention which, it is predicted, will rev
olutionize all forms of illumination.
Professor Branly informed the Acad
emy of Sciences of this discovery, giv
ing the credit of it to his former pupil,
Professor Dussaud. Before a distin
guished company of ambassadors, acad
emicians and the French aristocracy
Professor Dussand gave a denionstra
tion of his invention. It is based on
the principle of the repose of matter,
the theory being that, like animal or
ganisms, matter needs rest, or molec
ular equilibrium. It is known that if
one pair of shoes are worn constantly
by the average person they will last
four months, but that two pairs of
shoes worn alternately will last not
eight but sixteen months.
The “cold light” is an application of
this principle to incandescent electric
lamps, the light being concentrated on
a single point by all the filaments work
ing successively and projected through
a lens multiplying illumination a thou
sandfold.
The advantages claimed for this light
are:
First.—That there is no danger of.fire
from it because it gives out no heat.
| Second.—That it requires 100 times
less current, which can be generated
by a tiny portable battery.
‘ Third.—That it contains the ultra vio
let rays, requiring 100 times less elec
tricity, and, with an inexpensive ap
paratus, can be used for moving pic
tures in schools, eliminating danger.
Photographers are expected to aban
- don magnesium, for a ‘“cold light” at
tachment on a camera gives results
with an exposure of one-fourth of the
time needed for magnesium.
This invention will be especially val
uable for lighthouses, submarines and
aerial navigation.
Professor Dussaud has patriotically
placed his discovery at the disposal of
|the war ministry, whose experiments
at the Biarritz lighthouse were conclu
sive. Dussaud paid a tribute to his
master, Branly, as the first discoverer
of the principle of wireless telegraphy,
which he said was afterward put to
| practical use by Marconi.
'DOCTOR DEFENDS PIE EATING
ST
Dr. Woods Hutchinson Also Urges
Midnight Suppers as Gdod Habit,
Dr. Woods Hutchinson, the medical
writer, came to the defense of pie and
hard boiled eggs as articles of dlet re
cently. He asserted that the simple
diet was not the correct thing and
that an after the theater supper was
not injurious. His theory is—eat when
and where and what ons wants. A
few of his tips on dieting follow:
“Pje.—Almost a necessity to life. Hot
mince, cold mince, lemon (with or
without the meringue), pumpkin, apple,
raisin or almost any kind of fruft ple
is good. Take one slice after the mid
day meal and a big slice after the
evening meal.
“Eggs.—The harder they come the
better if you know how to eat them.
A hard boiled egg is generally better
than a soft boiled egg, because you in
stinctively chew a hard boiled one,
while you just gulp the soft ones. If
you know how to eat the soft ones, they
are just as good as ones cooked hard.
~ “Steaks.—Every one should have his
steak served frequently. If you lke it
rare, have it rare, but often. If you
like steak well done, have it well done.
' One is as good as the other. There is
?no real choice except in matter of
| taste.
~ “The only kind of pie that isn’t good
is the kind mother used to make.
Maybe you remember that soggy, sub
stanthal undercrust that melted, and
yet did not melt, in your mouth. It
' was a crust whose stickiness mother
had absolutely waterproofed against
the attacks of the digestive juices, But
the modern pie, with its crisp, starchy
crust, is entirely different.”

Remedy. It acts on nature's plan,

tions, aids expectoration, and re-.
