[Federal Official Points The amount of waste paper collect ed in all of Great Britain was about 1,000 tons a week in 1914. By 1918 this had been increased to 6,000 tons per week, or an increase of approximately 500 per cent, said ‘H. L. Baldensperger, chief of the waste reclamation service, United States department of com- merve, in a speech to the Federation of Women's Clubs. “Waste material,is the protector of our natural resources. Waste paper, utilized in the manufacture of other paper material, serves as a substitute for wood pulp. It requires eight trees of mature growth to produce a ton of paper pulp. Every ton of waste paper which can be substituted will save eight trees for other uses. In our urban centers we send annually to’ the dump approximately 18 tons of usable waste material for every 1,000 inhabi- tants, and 20 per cent of this tonnage s made up of waste paper. “Based upon the approximation of the present population of our country, we are sending annually to the dump at least 150,000 tons of waste paper, or twice as much paper as was collected in all of Great Britain in 1918. This amount represents the substituted power for at least 1,200,000 trees of mature growth.” ) NEVER-FAILING DEATh TEST Discovery of French Physician That Is Acknowledged to Be of Highest Importance: Uncertainty as to whether a- per- fon be alive or dead is especially great on the: battlefield, and prompt decision in such cases is far more important than In civil life. Dr. A. Terson has Just recommended to the French Acad- emy of Medicine a new test, those al- ready known having proved Insuffi- cient. The best of these latter has been the injection of fluorescein, as de- vised by Icard. But even this is un- certain, for in some cases men who are still alive do not show the green cotoration of the whites of their eyes following injection, which the test is supposed to produce. Doctor Terson recommends placing in the eye a minute quantity of a 33 per cent solution of dlonin (ethyl-mor- phine), glycerin. If death has already taken place, nothing happens, but if the man has the slightest trace of life still in him the white of his eyes will immediately- - turn purplish-red and swell, but this inflammation wil dis- 'fq!penr rapidly and leave no i1l effect. Test of Sanity. In the case of a very brutal murder, anger at the deed will sometimes causd a jJury to reject the clearest evidence that the perpetrator was -insane. The late Lord Kingsburgh, better known as Sir J. H. A. Macdonald (formerly lord Justice clerk of Scotland), whose death was announced a short time ago, could give a striking example. I once defended a case,” he wrote in his “Life Jottings,” “and a majority of the jury | not only convicted, but added a rider afirming that the prisoner was sane. The man‘was hopelessly mad. The doc- tors sent to see him were satisfied of that, and the sentence was not carrled out. A crucial test applied was that while one of them put his finger light- ly on the pulse, the other suddenly sald: ‘By the by, Miller, when is it you are to be hanged? There was not a tremor or a change of countenance or acceleration of the pulse, and, look- ing up, he sald, quite simply, ‘I think it's Tuesday week, if I'm not mistak- en.'" The Little Prude. A New York literary agent was talking about Alfred Noyes, the Eng- Ileh poet, who recently wrote an arti- cle to prove that many-of his brother poets are inunodest in their verse. “Noyes,” said the agent, “was al ways & bhit of a prude. Yes, cven in chi!dhood the unhappy traft manifest- ed ,tself, “Ooce, when he was four years old, Noyes had just got out o his bath and his nurse was advancing on lhim with a bath towel when the door opened. and hix aunt entered. “The youngster flew into a prudish rage, “‘Get out!” he screamed. ‘Get out right away.

DETERMINED TO ENJOY MEAL N Ten-Year-Old Was Going to Eat in Comfort if It Cost Him His i Savings. The Lane family decided to help out the mother of the family by decreas- ing the amount of table linen in the. weekly washing. Each member who spilled something on the cloth was re- quired to cover it with a plece of mon- oy—of the exact size of the spot. | Twice ten-year-old Fred was compelled to hand in a quarter from his paper money. Then one day he came home from the store with his pocket jingling full of money. At the very beginning of the menal he dropped a bit of gravy. Soon after- ward a piece of tomato followed the gravy. Still he showed no concern. His older sister reminded him of the agreement. “Oh, I guess I'll wait un- til 'm through,” was his calm rejoin- der. i Every .one was surprised because on other occasions he had showed much concern over his accidents. But when he produced a pocketful of pennies at the close of the meal and announced that he had come prepared to enjoy a meal once again, everyone understood. —Indianapolis News. Germs Pressed to Death. The Nebraska State Journal oh- serves one of the most interesting of recent developments in the dairy in- dustry is the announcement that germs may be kiiled by pressure. This leads to the bellef that the old method ot pasteurizing milk by heat, which has been found objectionable in some re- spects, may be supplanted. It Is claimed for the pressure system that the delicate ferments or enzymes in milk are not destroyed and that no changes are- made in the taste or gen- eral condition. The pressure is ap- plied by means of a hydraulic pump. It is possible to apply as high a pres- sure as 100,000 pounds to the square Inch. A pressure of 35,000 pounds to the square. inch for 15 minutes has been found to kill many bacteria. High- er pressure can be supplied when the germs are extraordinarily stubborn. In general. It is believed that a pressure of 30,000 pounds for 20 minutes will serve every practical purpose. This material Is found in a siatemient re- cently Issued by the American Chem- feal society.
