lately when the crew observed a dol­

directly toward the ship. On nearing
the vessel the flier arose In the air
and passed over the bow Just abaft
the foremast. As It did so the dolphin
went under the ship and, coming up

Hood’s Sarsaparilla
Mr. Rockefeller's gift of $1,000,000, to be used la eradicating the hook­
worm disease, fixes public attention on the dread scourge of the South.
When this parasite was found the discoverer stated, quite correctly, that
It was responsible for most of the lassitude and unwillingness to work of
the so-called “ poor white trash"— whereupon he was laughed out of court a*
the discoverer of “ the germ of laziness." The bookworm, which Is not a
germ. Is certainly no laughing matter. It ts not peculiar to the Southern
States, having been found In animals as early as 1782. It was first recog­
nized as the cause of a parasitic disease In 1843 in Italy, and In 1879 Its
action In exhausting the blood from the system was realized. In succeed­
ing years Its wide prevalence was noted in Europe and In eome cases were
traced to the United Staten; but It was not until 1902 thst the existence of
a purely American variety was demonstrated and announced by Dr. Stiles,
a zoologist connected with the United States government service. The ap­
pearance and habits of the parasite are now well known. It Is a sucking-
worm less than an Inch long and looking much like "a bit of soiled coarse
thread.” One victim may entertain several thousand of these tiny "vam­
pires." and these cause lose of blood not only by sucking it, but by leakage
through the minute holes that they make In the Intestinal walls.
Retardation of development due to hookworms has caused a great deal
of unmerited criticism to be heaped on the Southern cotton mills. Lads
of 17 or 18 appear no older than normal boys of 10 or 11; boys of 10 or 11
sometimes look like little children. Strangers not knowing their real ages
and seeing them at work go away with lurid stories of the horrors of child
labor. Their Impression Is still further heightened If they try to talk
with the supposed children. The disease makes them dull and backward—
they are generally the stupidest pupils In the schools— and they seem unable
to answer the simplest questions Intelligently. Perhaps they feel too miser­
able even to try. In school they are unable to concentrate their minds on
anything, and the teachers In the hookworm districts say that If their pupils
remain seated for any length of time they “ swell up.”
Hookworm disease Is caused by the presence of small worms belong­
ing to a group of round worm* known technically as uclnarlnae. Two dif­
ferent kinds of hookworm occur In man. One of these Is popularly known
as the "Old World hookworm," the other as the "New World hookworm."
Both of these parasites are known to occur In Africa, the home of the negro,
and both have been found In the negro. The Old World hookworm Is rela­
tively rare In the United States, where the great majority of cases must be
attributed to the New World parasite. The New World hookworm is known
as "the American murderer,” this name having been given It on account of
the great number of deaths It causes, directly or Indirectly.
The American hookworm Is about one-fourth to one-half an Inch long
and about as thick as a small hairpin. . It has hard cutting plates or Jaws
guarding the entrance to Its mouth, with the aid o f which It fastens Itself
to the Intestinal wall. In Its adult stage the hookworm le found fastened
to the lining membrane of the email Intestine. Formerly It was thought
that the parasite secured Its hold by means of hooks, but now It Is estab­
lished that It fastens Itself by biting the membrane. It makes a wound,
sucks the blood and produces a poisonous substance which Injures the per­
son affected. A person may harbor a few hookworms, or several thousands,
according to the amount of Infection to which he has been subjected. The
disease Is more common In children than In adults. The parasites do not
multiply lp the Intestine, as their eggs require fresh air In order to develop,
and so for every hookworm found in the Intestine a separate germ must
enter the body.
The young worm may enter the body In two different ways. It may be
swallowed In contaminated water or It may bore Its way through the skin.
Boring through the skin Is the more commod method of Infection. After
entering the skin, the young worms make thelY way to the blood and pass
with the blood through the heart to the lungs. Gradually they find their
way to the small Intestine, where they shed their skin, become mature and
then begin their work of Injuring the walls of the Intestines of suckling
the blood, and of poisoning their victims.
Investigations by Dr. Stiles have convinced him that the hookworm dis­
ease has a serious effect upon the mind and prevents children from fully and
properly assimilating the education which Is offered them. He says that, aa
nearly as can be estimated, the physical condition of the Southern school
children In the rural districts Is such that they cannot assimilate more than
70 per cent of the education they receive.
Dr. Stiles Is quoted as saying that It will take twenty years, at a cost
of 8100,000 a year—that Is, $2,000,000— to stamp but the malady In the South­
ern Stataes. Much, however, can be done In a short time.
The Rockefeller commission has not yet adopted a program for Its cam­
paign against the disease, but It will probably take up the measures sug­
gested some time ago by Dr. Stiles, which Include an annual "public health
week” In the schools, when children will be taught the dangers of infec­
tion; house-to-house canvasses In the back country districts by medical stu­
dents on vacation to enlighten the natives, lectures by physicians and
trained nurses In town halls, churches and schoolhouses; the distribution of
pamphlets and other printed matter telling about the disease; an institution
for free diagnosis and treatment, and the passing of laws In the several
Southern States to permit the above measures and to promote the anti-
hookworm campaign.
A late dispatch from San Francisco says that hundreds o f cases o f hook­
worm have been Imported into California In the last few years from Hawaii,
the Philippines and the Orient. Almost half of a colony of West Indian la­
borers who had been working In the Hawaiian sugar plantations and came
to the Pacific coast were Infected.

B U T Z E R
188 Street front
The Social Matrons were having a
meeting to discuss the never-ending
question of cookB. It was the almost
unanimous opinion of the assembly,
after an hour’s talk, that It was lmpd»
alble to keep a cook more than s
month without changing. "However,
innounced the president, "If any per
son knows of an exceptional case, let
her speak.’’ A writer in the Philadel­
phia Ledger tells the story:
At this the new member timidly
rose. “ The exception Is in my house,
she said.
"How long have you had your cookT"
asked the president.
"Over five years.”
For a moment the others stared In
amazement; then heads began to bob
In admiration, and more heads began
to swing sidewise In vigorous distrust
af the statement.
“ Is this cook entirely satisfactory aa
a cook?”
“ My husband thinks not. but she
stays, nevertheless.”
"How do you manage to keep her,
►hen?" '
"Because she won’t go.”
"A h a !"
This ejaculation, which escaped from
the president’s mouth, was flashed like
magic through the meeting until It be­
came a huge wave.
The president regarded the new
member with half-pity, half-scorn.
“ Mrs. Smith,” said she, the next mo­
ment. ’Instead of advancing a case In

have been found, you expose yourself

this cook to stay over the month you

has so long fought against! No doubt
you regret your position, Mr». Smith*’*
