The British. Government is calling for more doctors for the army, Sur- geon-General Sir Alfred Keogh has abpealed to. the medical profession to "mobilize" voluntarily, other wise, it is suggested recourse will have. to be had to medical conscription. A: Lon- don coddespondent of the 'Associated Press says many of the doctors' in private practice at home object to mobilizing, even voluntarily. Many. and | members of the British Medical pl gociation maintain that the army has already all the doctors it r if |. it would 'only learn how to employ them "to the best advantage. Some of them even suggest that the War Office should learn How to do it from the enemy.

CHILDREN AR TS VICTIMS, INFANTILE PARALYSIS STILL A DREAD MYSTERY. Almost Invariably Leaves Some Ter- rible Mark After It and Re- coveries Are Rare. It.is earnestly to be hoped that the epidemic 'of infantile paralysis which is raging in New York and has spread | to: several other states will not reach this country, There are a few cases in' Montreal, but otherwise da appears to be clear of it, and there is no reason to believe that the Montreal utbreak is to be traced to the cases in the: United States. There have : been 'no real epidemics of poliomyelitis. in Canada, though there were several in Toronto and vicinity a few years ago, and In scores of homes there are chil- dren who will never run or walk again as a result of this visitation. There is no more dreadful disease known to' medical science, and perhaps the most terrible thing about it is the fact that it 'usually selects children as its vic- tims, although no age is exempt from it. Complete recoveries are:extremely rare. - Almost - invariably infantile paralysis leaves some dreadful mark behind it, and so far medical science (has been unable either to provide a cure or even to understand the na- ture of the deadly organism. Too Small for Microscope. That it is indeed an organism, a germ, was learned only a few years ago, the discovery being made almost simultaneously in' the United States and France, 'where "epidemics had drawn some of the best medical ex- disease. Dr, Simon Flexner, of the |' Rockefeller 'Institute, who is a noted authority on the disease, says that it is extremely doubtful if the virus has 'been seen.. Certainly the germ is ex- ceedingly minute. The closest ob- servers have been able only to ob- serve under the most powerful micro- oval in form, and these, 'possibly, though not ' certainly, OW | parasite.

The care of other children by persons with contaminated fingers may there- fore lead to the conveying of the in fectious micro-organism indirectly from the sick to the healthy. This danger also exists in connection with vendors of food which is eaten uncook- ed. The existence of cases of infan- tile paralysis in the homes of vendors of food is therefore a perpetual source of danger. Dissemination can be made by means of house flies." How Death is Produced. The chief terror of the disease lies in its appalling power to produce de- formities. When death does occur it is not the result, as in many infec- tions, of a process of poisoning that robs the patient of strength and con- sciousness before its imminence, but is caused solely by paralysis of the respiratory function, sometimes with merciful suddenness, but often with painful slowness, without in any de- gree obscuring the consciousness of the suffocating victim until just be- fore the end is reached. No more ter- rible tragedy can be witnessed. For some years experiments. have been made with a view of producing & curative or preventive serum, and some progress has been made with a drug called hexamethylenamin, or urotropin, which = possesses a degree | of antiseptic action. This drug, how- ever, must be very carefully adminis- tered because it is more or less dan- gerous to many of the vital organs of the body. No doubt the present epidemic will result in still greater efforts being 'made to fully under- stand the virus of infantile paralysis and to develop a serum that will rob it of much of its deadly powers. eer |Lctan ¥--The Word of the LE Z1Cor. 1. 1th 2:5, Golden + Text--Gal, 6. 14.

The Foolishness of the thing preach- ed (margin) --With daring irony, Paul appropriates the term used by the Su- perior Person. "They may laugh who win," and as Paul knows the gospel is God's plan, he can afford to repeat with proud satire what clever men choose to say about it. To-day the church historian would give a great deal if he could get hold of those primitive criticisms, but they survive only in the quotations of Christian writers. 22, Signs--As they did of the Mas- ter.

Foolishness--We can easily imagine how a cultured Greek would scoff at the idea of being saved by a Gali- laean carpenter who was not even alive, but dead on a malefactor's cross of shame. 24, Called--Since God's call has two necessary elements, God's invitation and man's acceptance, the former be- ing universal, But the latter limited, the term is naturally used of those in whom the call becomes effective. 26.

The battle of Verdun has been pro- lific of heroic deeds. One of the most drastic episodes of the fighting round * Dead Man Hill occurred to the west of that position, where a French regi- ' ment was face to face with a Pom- erania brigade. During the hottest, : momend a major commanding the Third Battalion of a French regiment disappeared. Suddenly they heard a well known voice shouting, "Braveo, boys! Give them beans!" and the major came in- to' view, his uniform in shreds, his face coveretl with blood and his left arm hanging limp. He had been cut off with a handful of men, and at their head fought his way throigh the enemy ranks until he was sent to the ground with a terrible blow from a rifle butt, which smashed his left shoulder. Dragging himself on his hands, and knees for a mile, he had eventually rejoined his men, and bis first thougrt was to lead them once more into action. The French were successful in driving 'the Germans back, but the gallant major received a second dangerous wound. So ex- cruciating was the pain he suffered while being operated on that to avoid groaning he sang the "Marseillaise" at the top of his voice. A few min- utes later the general commanding his unit arrived at the hospital, and tak- ing 'the Cross of the Legion of Honor from his own uniform pinned {it on 'the breash of the brave officer pn ERE BLIGHTED, \ Love Missive was For 'and Sweethearts United.| The French have a classic cage mail delay.
