DIFFERENT FROM SHELL DUE Condition Usually Deval^M Hour* After Serious Wound Accident--Dead Tisauee Become Toxic and Poisonous Cambridge, Mass.--Discoveries mad* by Dr. Walter B. Cannon of the Harvard Medical school and other, American, British and French medical off' cets toward the close of the World war have brought forth new evidence regarding the cause and nature of the strange phase known as "shock," a condition that led to innumerable deaths in war time and frequently has a similar result after accidents In time of peace. "Shock, or wound-shock, as It Is often called, has long baffled the medical professian," Doctor Cannon said to a press representative,- on being asked to describe the results of his important work. Occurs After Any Accident. "This condition, which, by the way, should not be confused with shell' shock, an entirely different phenomenon, usually develops some houra after a serious wound or accident. It frequently followed grave shell wounds In the war, and often comes on after a person has been seriously hurt in an accident In times of peace, after, for example, he has had a limb crushed in a railroad accident. "There have been numerous theories of the nature of shock. Some doctors held that shock resulted from nervous collapse, others that it came from a clogging of blood vessels by fat from wounds, some that it was due to paralysis of the nerves controlling the arteries others that the adrenal gland was somehow affected so as to do the mischief, and so on. Our work in France gave us opportunity to study shock in tup utmost detail. One by one we threw out the theories advanced In former years. Establish Real Cause. We at length finally tested and established the fact that the condition results from the tearing or crushing of muscles or other tissues by missiles moving with terrific velocity. The damaged or dead tissue soon becomes toxic, or In other words acts like a sort of poison. This toxin causes an increased permeability of the smallest blood-vessels, the capillaries, and thus there is lost through their walls quantities of the fluid portion of the blood which should be In circulation. The result is somewhat similar to that of great loss of blood from the body." ' American, British and French medical and surgical officers co-opferated in the investigations, some of which were made at Bethune In 1017, some in London, and others at Dijon in 1918 in a laboratory of the American expeditionary force under Doctor Cannon's direction. "Toward the end of the war," concluded Doctor Cannon, "we had learned much about methods of treating such cases, finding that It was helpful to keep the patient amply warm, to give him quantities of water, and. ,if necessary, to. transfuse blood into the system from somebody else's." SAYS THAT EARTH IS SPEEDING TO END Detroit--The world la traveling <*» Its way to destruction at the rate of 600,000 miles a day, so the Rev. George T. Gullen of the West Grand Boulevard M. E. church believes. That was a sure thing, he declared, and further he said there are at least eight other ways in which the old world may come to Its end before the fatal ending of the "death Journey." First, he declared, the axis of the earth might decide to shift about a few degrees, with the result that the oceans would sweep over the dry lands and destroy all life before an ark could be built. If that falls to occur there might be a failure of internal fires and the crust of the earth would absorb all the water and the air. The death of our planet might, on the other hand, be brought about by the heat of the sun dying out and leaving the earth a mass of ice. There was just a possibility that we might all be asphyxiated by the earth nassing through the tall of a comet, or this planet might collide with another world wandering through space.

The rotation at present is Just sufficient to counteract the centripetal force of the sun and if It were slowed down the earth would fly Into the sun, starting at the rate of 1,100 miles an hour and be consumed. If the rate of rotation were accelerated the earth would fly out Into space into a temperature of 400 degrees below zero arid the oceans would be frozen to their utmost depths. Other ways by which Mr. Gullen could see the world come to its end ••ere the closing up of all volcanoes and other vents for gases, the Inevitable result of which would be a terrific explosion that would shatter the world or bring part of the atmosphere to such a heat that the oxygen and nitrogen would unite and causa a combustion of the atmosphere. That such disasters were not impossible was shown, he said, by the spectroscope, by means of which man^ could read the life history of the' planets. He added: "The spectroscope shows that one planet is in a state of white heat that another showing yellow is on the down grade, that Mars is dying, that the moon Is dead, while Jupiter is Just getting ready for sentient life. This world is on its way to death, for It is traveling straight toward Hercules 000,000 miles a day, and while the distance Is mmense it Is not infinite." The Great Danger. But the greatest danger that Mr. Gullen thinks confronts the earth Is a collision with a dead star. Such a star would be Invisible untn it came within the range of the sun's rays, which would be when It was five times as far away as Neptune. It could then he seen In the telescope. In twentyflve years more It would be visible to the naked eye. In five years more It would pass Neptune and In 145 days from that time if It kept straight on, it would strike the earth. That would jrlve us thirty-two years and 145 days of warning from the time the dead world was first picked ur by tlie telescope. Science tells us the end is coming, the preacher went oa more reassuring* !y, but It does not believe the end is near. It estimates that God took ninety million years to make the world habitable by man and that man's life »ii It Is perhaps 100,000 years. His comparatively optimistic comment at the finish was: "Why could God spend all that time In making a world If It Is to be destroyed so soon? God wastes neither space, material nor time. He is too busy. He Is continually making new worlds, but He does not destroy them almost as soon as they are mnde." HA.

He was found next morning two miles away from his home, standing at the edge of a Cliff 1,000 feet high. The child's recovery alive Is due Immediately to a collie, which was out with a searching party and was deflected from his duty by a wild goat which crossed his path. In following the goat half way up a mountain side he saw the boy and his furious barking was answered by the searching party. Waa Net Afraid. No one except the child knows through what adventures and dangers he passed that night, for he Is too young to give a connected account of his exploit and has sleftt almost continually ever since he was found. He declares he did not sleep at all during the night, but insists that he was not afraid, and would like to spend a Ulght in the mountains again. All the men and women who could be spared from their homes near the Tammlen farm started out in search of little Henry that night after his father and mother had made frantic attempts to learn by telephone If any one had seea the child. The search was conducted In a thorough and systematic fashion and the mountainside was assigned to a party composed of the youngest and most active men. Such men as bad good dogs took them along. They spent all night In the woods which line the mountainside, built several fires to show the child where they were, and from time to time called his name wltfc megaphones.

Large Increase in the Industry This Coun|ry, : --»: •: Iowa Bay Clears $1,200 In'One Year by Raising Them in His Back Yard. fPaahingtOD.--Raising rsbbtts for the market is becoming a pleasurable and profitable industry In certain parts of the country. A resident of Kansas City, Kan., has raised 800 to 400 pounds of rabbit meat a year for his own table at a cost of only eight to ten cents a pound. In Nebraska a large religious institution that has raised rabbits Instead of poultry reports the meat more satisfactory than chicken and the experiment profitable. ^According to a former county commissioner of Washington, rabbits were grown on the county farm to provide a substitute for county hospitals; the initial stock, numbering 110 rabbits, increased to 1,200 in ten months, besides those used in the hospitals. A high school boy In Iowa, who breeds registered stock on a space 33 feet square In hjs back yard, raised enough rabbits In 1918 to clear more than $1,200. An Ohio farmer sends 400 pounds of rabbit meat a week to city restaurants, yet is unable to meet the demand. The foregoing are concrete examples of what has actually been done from records of the bureau of biological survey of the United Slates Department of Agriculture. "It is now well known that rabbit meat," says Ned Dearborn, assistant biologist, In a bulletin to farmers, "is as fine as that of poultry, and that a prolific ten-pound doe can easily raise in a year 20 young, whKh at five months will produce not less than SO pounds of delicious meat. By means of compound hutches, all this can be dona on an area 4 by 9 teat Half an hoar of time a day and some hay. roadside weeds and refuse from orchard, garden and kitchen, supplemented by a small quantity of grain, cover the cost of production. Raising rabbit meat for home consumption is a proposition for turning to account time, space and materials which are ordinarily wasted. In regions where rab* bit breeding Is practiced extensively rabbit meat Is In common use and has a place with other kinds of meat in dally market reports. "The first object in *abblt raising ts to supply home needs. .The best endorsement an article can have Is the fact that It is used freely by Its producer. If one Is Inclined to disdain domesticated rabbits on account of experience with wild rabbits, he should know that the latter, aa sold In the butcher's shop, are not' to be compared with tender young hutch rabbits. The flesh of the tame rabbit Is a highly nutritious aud desirable food, resembling somewhat the white meat of chicken.

The catch will be restricted. When a Scotch steam drifter has earned $5,- 500 it will cease fishing. Scotch motor drifters will stop when their earnings reach $4,150. At Yarmouth and Lowestoft steam drifters will discontinue fishing after earning $6,500, and motor craft on earning $5,000. The project is dependent on a grant of $2,875,000 being made by the government, failing which, it is declared by those who devised it, "the industry must come to an end and ruin and unemployment follow la , On eeast ports dependent on the herring fishery."

John Foster, toward 5 o'clock In the morning, was about to call his dog and go down the mountain when the dog spied a wild goat in the underbrush and made after It. The goat went from rock to rock at a merry pace, and Foster's young collie held the chnse until the goat had distanced him completely. * Ultimately the collie stopped at the edge of a cliff which loomed over Foster's head, aqd from which, as Foster thought, the animal was unable to make his way down. At least he made no attempt to return. After a toilsome ascent Poster made his way to where the collie stood, still barking furiously. And as Foster reached the top of the cliff he found little Henry standing there, wet through with rain but full of cheer and smiles and apparently with no notion that his absence from home had cost any one a wink of sleep.
