M iiimumi;,nTMUWi:iiiBTf..j imhhiiiiii m JPAGfc FOUR Snake Venom Cures Epilepsy Texas Reptiles Furnish Sequence to Years of Experiment for Relief of Dread Malady Follow Ing closely upon the announce ment of tho discovery of a euro for tiilterculosl comes the information that I ho vononi of tlio rattlosnako has a destiny to fulfill ns a euro for epilepsy. Tho discovery of this uso for a deadly poison in credited to Dr. Ilnlph II. Spongier, whose experiments seem to have proven tho benefit or. tno venom tn these eases. The story of this dls cox en is told by A. Bt, George Joyco nt the Technical World Magaslnc, and presents an Interesting phase of tho ef forts of science to combat this dread disease. The explanation of its action is not entirely given, but so far as known it acts ttpon tho blood In such n way as tn lengthen tho period of coagulation. Mood clotting has been known n tho rnnse of fits, and the discovery of n successful remedy for this condition is n itself of wonderful valuo. Accord ing to the story Dr. Spnnglcr has sue ceded in his experiments In increasing tlie tune from two and ono-hnlf nnd three minutes to between fi-o and slv, the normal period for coagulation be mg seven minutes. So far Dr. Spongier has made about 3000 injections In 110 patients, nnd considers that all of them have been benefited. Cases are re corded in which tho frequency of epi leptie attacks has been materially re dured One initanco is told of an eleven year old school girl who had taken injections of tho venom weekly for seven months. At the beginning of incut she was able to nttend school I regularly and had suffered only three minor ntlneks in several months. It ' is stated that In every enso treated " there has resulted not only a decrease or complete disappearance of tho at tacks but a building up of mind nnd bodv as well. The discovery of tho effectiveness of this xciiom came about through nccl dent. iDr. Spnngler was experimenting with tho suhtnneo In the treatment of other diseases when ho heard of an nl leged euro of n Texas epileptic after a rattlesnake bite. Tho experiments he gan and he noticed an appreciable ef feet upon his patients, tho number of attacks decreasing almost at once. Tho venom Is secured from Texas rattlers nt considerable danger to the collector. The snakes nro usually selected when torpid from heavy feeding, and a leather laseo Is thrown about tho neck While one man holds the thong another pries the month open with a spoon or small cup and the pressuro of tho fangs in tho dine of tho cup forces tho venom from tho sacs. Scarcely less Important from n scien tific standpoint is tho discovery by M !isntul of a "cold light" which very nearly approaches the long desired light that the name implies. Science has as vet been unable to produce strong light directly from mechanical power without employing heat, nnd tho discovery of the new light is n step to ward that most important cud. M.

Its author became tho subject of" its opposcrs' vengeance nnd died by tho hand of an assassin in his prison cell in 1SS3. Trior to this dato, when tho powers were upon the point of stepping in, tho constitution was revived and interven tion staved off. Later the same thing happened, the constitution proving an effective remedy for nbuscs time after tunc. Yet its period of existence was always brief. Talk of the partition of Turkey frequently was rif Bnt tho powers found In Abd-ul-Hamid a clever schemer. Oermany wanted a railroad in this direction, England in that; privilege was continually being sought by the powers, each with her own pe culiar purpose. ' Abd-ul-Hamid was al ways ready and played one power against another in such a way as to baffle attempts at reconstruction of the national policy. In June, 100S, England and Russia wcro about to stop in with a program of reform in Macedonia which they were prepared to enforco If necessary wth arms. Thon the revolution of Noting Turks took place and tho con stitution of Mldhat Pasha was diten tonitwM Again this forgotten instru men served to stave off intcrvontirtn ct t vrn soon again forgotten. In JOH' a member of tho party of Union and 1'rogree addressed Ins copatnots and referred to this document. He re ioid V.J them that the constitution gave ual rights to Mussulman, Christians and -1! citiseM, but further stated that Fti li a guarantee was Impossible, "for ' f rt nt all llin luilv Imr it cxhumm! tn ' all our history, tho sentiment of hundreds of thousands of true believ its is opposed to it." Tho reafflrma tion of the traditional policy of their fathers had its effest', for the soldiers were quick to sateh the spirit of this address Tho massasres that followed wero as terrible as many of tho forrnor attacks uion Christians. So with this seesawing back and forth lietween the old regime and the progressives, with a cry for education on the ono band and a cry for its sup pression on the other, it is not sur prising that Turkey, upon attempting to atom tho tide of wrath that mani fested itself in the present upheaval, should find hor bullets inoffeetlve against the enemy. Should the war drag on with the Young Turks in eon-1 trol, or should the old regime still play for time in the hope that something will turn up to save for Turkey tho kev to he national integrity, Adrian ople, the outcome, though perhaps do layed, cannot but bo against the des potism f a rare that has failed to keep up with the paeo of civilization. For Turkey is fighting with the wooden bullets of her own molding. tho light thus concentrated by means of a lens. It is said an ordinary water faucet will supply sufficient power to operate tho light. If this is true two purposes will bo served by tho new light. Electricity will bo brought within tho reach of many who cannot now afford to uso it for lighting pur-1 poses, for the slmplo uso of water from a faucet furnishes tho minimum of ) cheap power.
