THE CAUSE 0F APOPLEXY Rules for Those Who Ftr an Attack of the Disease. Youth's Companion. ' The word generally means a sudden paralysis caused by the rupture of a blood vessel In the brain. It la popu larly called a "stroke." It Is a result . of a softening of the arteries that ' ..often follows primary hardening. The disease Is a common accompanl "ment of old age, so common Indeed ...that It Is regsrded by many aa the one characteristic senile change. . i It Is not confined to old age. how ever, for many comparatively young men who have gone too fast and 'too far In the pursuit of wealth or who ' have met with reverses and have wor ried unduly over them have harden ing arteries and are killed or disabled by apoplexy. In their hardened blood vessels there may be softening spots whlrh. bulged " by the hydraulic pressure of the blood, form little aneurisms. A little extra strain on the vessels, caused by some violent emotion or the lifting of a heavy weight or running to catch a train may then rupture one or more of these little aneurisms and so ht the blood pour Into the brain tissue. ' If the blood escapes rapidly and In . . large amount. It causes immediate loss of consciousness and paralysis. It the blood escapes gradually and In small amount It causes either severe head-f-che and tingling and numbness In one I Jot more of the limbs, or progressive 'loss of power, gradual dulling of the , . mental faculties and ultimate uncon sciousness. Apoplexy Is not always fatal. In deed, complete recovery without any paralysis sometimes occurs. The suf ferer's Immediate fate la commonly de J t ided In two or -three days; either he dies without regaining consciousness ""or his mental faculties gradually re 4 turn. He la then seen to be paralysed In either arm or In one leg. or In one side of the fare, or In all three. In less serious rases the paralysis " lessens, the facial expression becomes .normal and the limbs regain their power.

ASSOCIATION - HOLDS ENJOYABLE DRAFT OF BILL IS FINISHED Rivalry Between Reseats of Mate Educational ' Institutions Won Id De Kllmlnated by' Scheme Proposed by Subcommittee. United Ftates Judge Bean and J. K. Weatherford, constituting a special subcommittee appointed for the pur; pose, have completed the draft of an initiative measure providing for the maintenance of the University of Orn gon and the Oregon Agricultural Col lege on a mlllaae tax basis- and the government of both Institutions by one board of regents. To this managing board Is given the assignment of pre scribing the courses of study of the two schools so that all duplication of work will be avoided. The bill that has been prepared was authorised after a series of confer ences between Governor West, com mittees from the boards of regents of the two Institutions and a special com mltte appointed by the Governor to Investigate the fraslbllltj of con solidating the two schools. It will be printed Immediately and Initiative peti tions will be placed In circulation In order that the required 917 signatures msy be obtained for placing the measure on the ballot for the approval of the voters of the state In the No vember election. The circulation of the petitions will be supervlned by a com. mlttee of which W. K.. Newell, of Gas ton, Is chairman. Caasmlttee Faces Big Task. The task of securing slgnaturas In the short space of time remaining be tween now and July 4. the last date upon which petitions may be llled with the Secretary of State, Is a momentous one. but the committee In charge of this, work has received assurances, of support from many sources. Copies of the Initiative petition will be sent to the graduatea of the University and the Agricultural College, to teachers, edu cators. Grangers and others Interested throughout the state and a vigorous campaign wIlU he made In Portland among business men and others who are Interested In the proposed legis lation. , The bill provides for a tax of six tenths of a mill and the creation of University and Agricultural College funds to which shall be credited three sevenths and four-sevenths, respec tively, of the funds raised therefrom. From and after January . 1814. the proportion of the tax to be credited to these funds will be subject to revision and change by the one board ofregents that Is provided for governing the two Institutions.

Of this amount, the university will receive approximately $220,000 and the Agri cultural College $280,000. The one board of regents will be known as "The Regents of the Uni versity and Agricultural College" and Will consist of the Governor, ex-offlcio, and alx residents and citlsena of the state to be appointed by him "by and with the advice and consent of the Senate." Within SO days after the adoption by the people of the act. the Governor Is to appoint the members of the board, designating their terms so that one will expire every two years. All subsequent appointments, except those to nil vacancies, shall be made for the full term of 11 years. . Within ten days following their ap pointment, the regents are to meet and organise by electing a president and secretary, preliminary to assuming con trol and aupervislon or tne univer sity and Agricultural College, January 1. 11I- Faads Pravlded for Xext Year. The annual continuing appropria tion of $1 25.000 tor the Univer sity and 1160,000 for the Agricultural College for the maintenance of the two Institutions, provides the bill, shall be available for next year "to enable the institutions for which such ap propriations were made, torrteet cur rent expenses between the ate of the pasaaga of this act and the collection of the tax hereby levied, and for mak ing necessary repairs - and Improve ments and the construction Of neree- sary additional buildings. Thereafter, these standing appropriations by the provisions of the proposed Initiative bill will be repealed. Discussing the bill and Its provisions yesterday, W. K.
