WASHINGTON. 'April 3. The
condition of Secretary Weeks who
is suffering from thrombrosis was
described as "entirely satisfac
tory" late today after his physician
had concluded a thorough medical
examination.
WASHINGTON. April S. Secre
tary John W. Weeks of the war
department Is ill with thrombosis.
The war secretary has been
confined at h!s homo for several
days but there has been no inti
mation that he was seriously ill
until his physicians today an
nounced the cause.
Dr. D. L. Hardin. Mr. Weeks'
physician, Issued a bulletin today
saying that the secretary on the
morning of April 1 had a "throm
bosis of one of the small branches
of the middle cerebral artery."
which had produced weakness of
the muscles of the left arm, but
thnt no other symptoms had re
sulted. The statement added that
Mr. Weeks should .be out " in a
short time."
Mr. Weeks, who is approaching
his 64th year, has not been in ro
bust health for some years. He re
turned to his office early tnu
week after a two week's vacation
In Florida and subsequent visits In
other southern states, lln appear
ed at the time of his return ,to be
enjoying improved health. ,,. .
In the lntervRI since ne return
ed he has been exercising his func
tions as secretary of war. Papers
dealing with important wnr de
partment business still were being
sent to his residence today for his
consideration.
Iiecause of his health, however,
the war secretary In agreeing last
month to continue as secretary of
r In the Coo dee cabinet, uin
so with the understanding that he
would return to private life If Bis
physical condition at any time re
quired a lessening of physical ex
ertion. Thromhos's is an obstruction of
the blood circulation by a clot,
which In this case, apparently has
lodged In the brain. A stoppage
of any particular proporlions
there would have immediately
be fatal results and even In a mild
er form might cause paralysis.
Certainly it is something n"w
and It is as good as it is new.
One trial will convince vou.

Water Denizen 7 hal j
Has Feu) Vital Organs
Th little creature called thd
ItUio Jut la slender and x hired, at
b'ltlt etnlK, and not very easy o a- e,
since it la almost tranKparcut, and
la tinly from an Inch and a half
to two and n half incite In length.
It Uvea in shallow water and
llk'i to stick ha head erd into ti-e
avid. Into which It burrow a w!ih
great rapidity. It reuialna thus for
a lone time with lu tali aticklns
out. When on the surface of the
water It lies un ita aide. j
While it can neither aee nor hear,
there la reason for believing that it
poHMfsaea the sense of smell and
tit me. Its egga are laid about suu
sot and the larvae butch out early
the next morning.
The luncelot has no head. More- j
over. It hua neither leg nor pairs 1
of tins. It has a mouth, however, I
placed at one end, which, therefore,
may be called the head end of the ,
body.
It has a stomach, a very simple
form of liver and another simple
organ which tnkea the place of a
heart, since It la capable of con
tracting and thus forcing the blood,
which la quite colorless, forward
to the urea of the gills, where it
hi purified. Review of Hevlewa,
Business Now Made of
Producing Spider Silk
Spider farming la one of the little
known industries of modern times.
The end in view is not the Inten
sive fighting of the tly peril, but
the production of spider silk, than !
which there is nothing better for '
the crosa lines of surveying and
other Instruments. j
Supplies in vastly larger quantl- i
ties are needed for 'he manlifncture
of spider-silk stockings, and it la
to meet this demaud that special !
spider funna have been started ,
from time to time, say a Tlt-liits. j
It la no easy mutter to keep and j
feed the spiders, to prevent them ,
from engaging in mortal combat, :
and to collect their silk in suitable
form. The process of "silking" the j
spider amounts to playing catch '
hall, with the spider as the bull, j
in lta passiigc through the air the
spider Instinctively pays out silk, ,
and it can be induced to part w ith ,
a hundred yards or more during a
succession of such Mights.

"Oh, Alice I" Virginia exclaimed,

"Vou don't say I Well, I always!

"And Alice,' Virginia continued,
"the engagement Is a secret Just
now. 1 promised Uludys I wouldn't
tell a living eoul, bo don't you
breathe u word of It to anyone."
"Why, Virginia," Alice replied,
"you know 1 wouldn't any more
