We condense a few other incidents related by Dr. May. Many experimen- tors have tried the effects of pois- ons on themselves. Dr. L. J. Boyd conducted tests to determine how much‘ of the poison of insects the human body can absorb without Fifty students the New York llomoepathic Medical College volunteered to take daily doses in capsules of poisons of spiders, bees and other insects, over a period of six months. For- tunately the results were not dis- astrous. All survived the ordeal with ‘no ill effects and much valu-

thc innriiiiig the stomach is ready for food after its long rest,and there is some form of work likely to be done during the morning.

Similarly after lunch some form of work. walking, shopping. golfing, or perhaps some form of light office work. In any case something is likely to be done. ‘ In the evening when a real hearty meal is eaten there is likely to bc thc reading of the papers or a book, or at most a visit to theatre. movie, or bridge party. If the latter another meal is likely eaten. You can readily see that not only is the largest meal eaten, but less work is done after this meal, than after breakfast and lunch.

Drs. B. Gordon and E. von Stan- ley of Philadelphia have made what would appear to be a. valuable sug- gestion that I would like to pass on to my readers.

As you know it is the starchy; foods, potatoes, bread. sugar. cakes; and pies that although used as fucl in the body, if taken in quantil ties larger than necessary as fuel.

Canada's immigration policy will be “considerably modified" at next session of Parliament. says an Ot- awa despatch, but without applying the quota system to foreign couii- tries. This can only mean that the reform of the present abortive and anti-British policy of stocking the Dominion with foreigners is i0 be continued for another year. Pre- inler Bruce of Australia has indi- cated the intention of his govern- ment to so restrict all foreign im- migration that it shall not exceed one-half of the number received from the British Isles. That pol- icy ls sound. and it takes effect without awaiting "another session.“ Action by the Australian govern- ment contrasts strongly with inac- tion at Ottawa.

We trust that no such complaints will have any just foundation here during the tourist season.

Parliament still sits, apparently doing little or nothing that is worth reporting. The projected plan to‘ increase the salaries of all the Judges and Members of Parliament is hung up by the dog-in-the-man- gcr attitude of the politicians, whose demand appears to be that they shall share "illfty-flfty." if the Judiciary get any more pay.
