The brother held Tommy fast when he wanted to get up, and while Thomns waB squirming loose a large fish-hook In the under man's pocket caught In his right ear. It was utterly impos sible to get loose. The more his brother squirmed the more pain was Thomas In. Their cries btought the mother of the lads to the scene. She viewed the situation nnd thn procuring her' scissors she cut a piece out of Tom's brother's pocket nnd Tom was free. The fish-hook and piece of cloth was still attached to his ear.

SCIIENK'S TIIEOKV OI' SEX It Ilni Ileon Put Into n Book Soon to Bo Sold. As announced by an Associated Press dispatch from Vienna several days ago. The Werner company, of Akron, O., has scoured tho copyright privileges of Pi of. Schenk's book on the "Determina tion of Sex" both In the United States and England. Tho work has been vig orously pushed and Is now ready for distribution. Dr. Leopold Schenk, the author, Is a professor at the Imperial and Royal university nnd director of tho Embryoiogical institute in Vienna. He has devoted twenty years to the In vestigation of the subject, predetermin ation of sex, and has verified his theor ies again and again Ijy painstaking nnd exhnustlve experiments. The transla tion has been supervlied by Doctor MacKellar, the well-known English medical authority. In view of tho fact, says no less an nuthorlly than tho British Medical Journal, that Prof. Schenk's conclu sions as to the power of artificially determining the sex of offspring have served as a nine-day's wonder, it seems advisable to lay before our readers (the medical profession of England, Aus tralia and India) a plain statement of his arguments. His treatise falls Into three parts a summary' ot the writings of his predecessors on the same sub ject, an account of his own researches nnd deductions, and finally a descrip tion of the method of treatment ho has devised, with illustrative cuses. "My discovery," explains Dr. Schenk, "Is based upon tho scientific fact that tho blood of n grown-up man contains five million blood corpuscles, the near eis of life-giving and nourishing oxy gen, whilst the blood of a grown-up woman only contains four million. The difference Is the basis of the difference of sex, of the different moral and phys ical wo: king rowers in man and wo man. Thlsi proportion is observable in the slightest quantity of blood from a man or a woman. .All my eftorts are directed toward producing the right number of blood corpuscles required hy tne male embryo. 1 have succeeded In attaining this effect by suitable nour ishment of the woman." It is a well-known fact that for ages the secret of predetermining sex has eluded the grasp of science; that from remotest nntlcjulty this question has engaged the attention of wlso men and seers to no purpose. In view of tho countless idle theories that have been advanced, many of which have seemed plausible and have had a temporary following only to prove delusive and without foundation. Dr. Schenk's dis covery might be treated skeptically, but that It comes to us on the author ity of one of the leading medical lights of Europe; from Vienna, too, the recog nized center for advanced medical re search of thu whole world: that it is attracting the respectful attention of learned societies everywhere; that the British Medical Journal dignifies It with a lengthy review, tantamount to the endoiboment of the profession in England; while the aristocracy of the Austrian capital, says a well-known correspondent, accepts the theory, and "billef In It spreads with marvelous ra pidity. Every day. he adds, tho little street In which Prof. Schenk lives Is crowded with elegant carriages from which ladles alight eager to consult the doctor. Its simplicity cannot lie nccepted as an argument against the soundness of his theory. History teaches us over and over ngaln that the so-called sec lets ot nature all lie near to the sur face. According to Dr. Schenk. It Is an easy matter to determine the sex of children, The rule laid down are ex plicit nnd easily followed. . CANADIAN CANAL 1MIOJECT. Waterway from tho Itooklei to the fStent I.akea. A continuous waterway from Lake Superior to the Rocky mountains, in British possessions, is contemplated, according to a St. Paul dispatch. The costliest portion of the work would be between Lake Superior and Rainy Lake, where canals would be required over the height of land to reach Rainy Lake. From the last-mentioned point to Edmonton, on the Saskatchewan river, tho work would bo comparative ly light. Thence there Is clear navi gation across the Lake of the Woods to the Rosseau river, which flows Into the Red river. There would bo clear sailing to tho Saskatchewan by way of the Red river and Lake Winnipeg. At the mouth of the Saskatchewan the Grand Rapids would have to bo over come by a canal. Then there would be uninterrupted navigation to Edmonton, 1,000 miles. The distance In an alr-linc between Lake Superior and Edmonton is about 1,400 miles. The proposed water-way, following a circuitous route, would be over 300 miles further than that. . MUNYON'S GUARANTEE. 0tronK Aaoertlona to Jont What .the ncBM!!' Will'. Do. Munjon riirtnttM that hi.
