Woolner's Tip
The little tip or point that often ap
pears on the inwardly folded margin of
the human ear near the top has re
ceived the name of "Woolner's Tip,"
from the sculptor Woolner, who first
reproduced it in his bust of Darwin.
Other sculptors, though they must have
noticed the tip, never reproduced it.
Darwin held that this tip was a rem
nant of a wrinkle left by the coiling
up of the ear and hence a proof of
man's descent from lower animals.—

Overcrowded Conditions in Insane
Hospital Call for the Expenditure
of Half a Million Dollars
Conferences were held yesterday by
Chairman Buckman and Woodward, of
the Senate and House Legislative Ap
propriations Committees, with the heads
of departments of the State govern
ment 011 the Central Appropriation
bill, which it is expeyted will be in
shape to report out next week. The
two chairmen also conferred with Au
ditor General Powell on revenues tor
the next two years. The big bill, it
is announced, will carry only admin
istrative expenses for the Highway,
Health and other departments whose
general work will be provided for in
separate bills. .
Chairman Woodward admitted, alter
his consultation with the department
heads and state officials, that the sit
uation regarding the raising of reve
nue to meet demands fro "J ( . varloUS
sources for appropriations "is very
grave." Ho called attention to the fact
that members of the House were kill
ing revenue producers aud yet were
pressing for large appropriations tor
various projects.
The overcrowding of the State in
stitutions for the care of the insane
was the subject of a conference yester
day between the Governor and mem
bers of the State Board of Charities.
Judge Isaac Johnson, of Delaware coun
ty, a member of the board, in a state
ment afterward said:
"State institutions are overcrowded
to the extent of about 1,500 pationts.
County institutions are overcrowded to
the extent of about 500. And the in
crease in numbers of insane annually is
about 700, so that in two years the
overcrowding would bo increased one
hundred per cent. We need approxi
mately a half million dollars.
"We do not feel that the time is
opportune for the building of new in
stitutions. W T e ask that funds be ap
propriated to add units to existing in
stitutions. In this way we can pro
vide for the present overcrowding and
prevent many insane from being con
fined in jails or cared for in alms
houses."
The members of the House Commit
tee on Appropriations will have the
chairman of the committee, James F.
Woodward, of MeKeesport, as their

Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey
may be relied upon in extreme cases where other foods are rejected. When
taken as directed just before meals, it assists in keeping healthy the essential
functions of digestion because it induces activity in the flow of gastric juices
so the food you eat will digest naturally. This action on the digestive process
is of great importance as it brings to all the tissues and organs of the body the
nutriment necessary to their sustenance and indirectly to the whole system
strength and vigor. It's a medicine for all mankind, and you, too, can
