PAGE SEVEN THE LA GRANDE EVENING OBSERVER " Wednesday, August 22, 1923. ! TO INVESTIGATE DOC DISIEIER 1923 Dog Fatality List Is Expected to Be Hundreds of Ihousands. BOSTON, Auk. 82. Hundreds of thousand:) of don;s will -die in tho L'nitid Slates during l!i:'3 anil a ina jority of those casual tltH will result from that mysterious can I no muludy culled" distemper," That estimate bused on retires of oilier years, was made hero today ly Charles H Tyler, of lioRton, Hecrelary-treusui pr " of the American ldstemner Commit tec. Mr, Tyler is tlij active director of that body which will launch u nation wide drive to stamp out thu deadly, enemy of "mun'a bunt friend.", Tht! committee, of which Hobart Amen of! 11 os l on is tho chairman and William j Zii'tfk'r. Jr. of New York the vtce-J chalrm in, included u representative croup of American authorities on dug affairs, as .well as men prominent in business and professional lines. The committee, Air. Tyler said, has completed plans to reach, ehloftly through the medium of dog- clubs and dog publications, thousands of fan ciers and dog owners. It is estimated that upwards of a million persons in this country will Jo(n in contributing to the success of thu drive which will result In exhaustive research, the aim 1 of which will be to isolato the germ and discover an effective curative and preventive. Details have been per fected which will extend the move ment into every city und town in the United Htutcu. . Similar drives, according to Mr. Ty ler, have been launched In kiiffland, Canada, Australia, South Africa and other countries. The Kngllsh com mittee is headed by the Duke of Beaufort, one of tho best known of Kngllsh dog men and is being actively directed-by Kir Theodore Cook, editor of the London Field. Twenty-five Kngllsh sportsmen, including several noted scientists, compose the .com mittee in that country. Organizations along the same lines in the other countries provide assuranco that the war ugainst distemper will be waked on every front, Tho insidious malady, peculiar to dogs, Is only too familiar to the thous ands of dog owners who have seen their four-footed companions stricken, r suddenly droop, drag themselves to a corner of the room or kennel, gradu ally lose tho use of the legs and fin ally enter a slate of paralysis after which the only humane solution Is the infliction of death as painless as poss ibe rather than to permit drawn out suffering. The germ which causes the disease, however, lias baffled scientists to dute. Jt attacks dogs of every class, from tiic blue-ribbohed winners of the show ring to the homeless street waif. Well-bred dogs are, if anything more susceptible. Cases have been noted in which the disease spread rapidly among the finest prize win ners gathered at big kennel shows. The result has been tho loss of thous ands of dollars worth of animals and, more than that, of real companions. The germ may be conveyed by other nutans than by actual contact with the animal suffering from the disease. Jt may be carried on the clothes or boot3 of a person who has" been even slightly in contact with a dog carrying the disease. . The experimental work which there Is good reason to believe will be successful in liberating the dog from this dreader enemy, will be carried on at the Farm laboratory of the Medical JUescarch Council near Lon don, Kngland, Specially trained at tendants will spend parctlcally all their time within a restricted en closure in which the kennels of tho "patients" will bo. located. Numerous experiments will be 'car ried out, checked and verified, with each result a stepping stone to thu ultimate goal which is likely to be the. isolation ol the germ anil the formu lation of a preventive and curative preparation. Reports of the progress made in tho experiments wilt be announced from time to time for the information of dog men. When tlte solution finally is reached, it will be given freely to owners of dogs in every country. Dairy Breeders Lauded. m i.-n v- . mi n -i t ti ' i i . cmi LLGH, Corvallis, Aug. 22.

Y Aug. 22.---TuL aukh-Aincn wouldjoduy still be rest ing peacefully in his royal tomb iu the Valley of the Kings had it nut been for a woman. Professor Wil liam J. Hincke. of the Auburn Theo logical Seminary told the members of titse Syracuse Ministers' Associa tion all about it. This woman while digging in the hills back of her home -at Tcl-Arm- iina, In Kgypt, u numiicr ot yea i s ago, unearthed two queer little with funny- hieroglyph's. She told her neighbors about her find, and of con rso the news got to Cairo. The professors from the University of Pennsylvania got b, usy and dug up 30 of these funny httlcf reels of baked clay, which proved to be of King Amen-liotep IV, who now turns out to be the father-in-law of King Tut. Th is led to t he fart her Inarch of the country for arehaeo logical treasures, These letters disagreed with the history of tho Bible a l rifle, bo causo they referred to members of a. tribe of Hebrews settled in parts i n.r llnlnulin.. wHn ii....ni-.liin In tl.,.1 Bible, were still In F.gypl during the 19th dynasty, whereas Amen Holep and Ttut-ankh-Amen were of tho 18th dynasty. Professor Hincke Is forced to tho conclusion that maybe there were two exodi of Hebrew from Egypt, one under Moses as recorded in th,e Bible and' the other, a smaller one. perhaps a hundred years earlier. For the most part, however. Professor Hincke finds that the results of the excavations in recent years confirm thoso of tho Bible. Detailed Information was also pre sented by Professor Hincke concern ing the finds of Flcphuntino Islands ut the first cataract of the Nile, where a Jewish templo was destroy- i ed by an Kgyptian priest; at Jerus alem, where four tunnels have been, unearthed, one of them dating to i about 2,50(i years before Christ, and Askalon,. ujherc Phil 1st inan pot tery hus been brought to light.

TURN HAIR DARK WITH SAGE'TEA If Mixed with Sulphur It Darkens 8o Naturally Nobody Can Toll The old-time mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur . for darkening gray, streaked and faded hair is grandmoth er's recipe, and folks arc again using it to keep their hair a good, even color, which is quite sensible, as we arc liv ing in an age when a youthful appear ancc is of the greatest advantage. ' Nowadays, though, wc don't have the troublesome task of gathering the sage and the mussy mixing at home. All drug stores sell the rcady-to-use prod uct, improved hy the addition of other ingredients, called "Wycth's Sage and Sulphur Compound." It is very popu lar because nobody can discover it has been applied. Simply moisten your comb or a soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair disappears, but what delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound, is that, besides beautifully darkening the hair after a few applica tions, it also produces that soft lustre and appearance of abundance which is to attractive. e Shine forMine" R E S CO
