— F00DS FORM TOPIC OF MEDICAL BODY Preparation of Meals by Safe ' Health Methods Discussed by Homeopathists. A mother’s education in the art of reparing dinner would have been proadened vesterday, while her judg- wment in matters of food might have guffered from the strain ofeher own Perplexity, If she had attended the nieeting of the Iastern Homeopathic Medical Association at the Washing- on Hotel. She would have learned ways of making the feared foods, uch as corn, quite palatable and harmless, and the mccepted foods even better. She would have heard milk condemned As & food for her growing children by one wuthority and praised by another so forvently that she would hardly know what to do. 1t was Dr. William Hahnemann Medical delphia, who presented the food-im yrovement idea. He declared that if foods are exposed to the rays of the ¥un before they are cooked they will be fmproved to the extent that physi- cal growth in persons who eat foods that have been so treated visibly will putdistance the growth of those who ®at their fonds In the accepted W Baker explained that the ultra s of the sun break up and through the food the phos- phorus and caleium, the two valuable elements in foodstuffs. ¥. Baker of College, Phila- Caution Is Enjoined. It was explained, howe that foods <o tre: must be exposed in %he direct, unhindered ray of the sun ®nd not in a ray that has passed tiirough the glass in the kitchen win- dow, for ultra violet rays cannot pen- eirate the ordinary glass. Dr. Baker's advice is to place foods in an open Bish and the dish on the outside win dow sill for a time before cooking. As # novelty, he told his fellow medical yen that while the food is basking In the health ray of the sun refriger- gtlon can be In progress beneath the dish so that the food will not decom- pose. Tn support of this belief, Dr. Baker told of experiments upon rabbits swhich had been fed ordinary food und that which had been exposed to pun rays. The bunnies of the plain food diet were just plain bunnies, While those that had eaten the sun- Vathed food were of larger size. Dr. Baker said sun-bathed food wwas being fed to tubercular patients n_Philadelphia with marked results. Dr. Baker also told of & means of rounteracting sunburn. He said the tdea used in the out-of-doors tubercular camps where children are xposed almost nude to the sun. [hey are fed carrots ronstderable quantiti colors their blood a deeper hue and ko the skin itself is turned a deep The ultra violet rays of the #un are thus counteracted so far as the burning is concerned and the children may play and work in the strong rays without the discomfiture of burnir Milk as Food Put Under Ban. Dr. J. T. Sinionson of New York threw a bomb into the old theory that milk “nature’s own food He condemned milk as a food for &ny one save infants as “abominable,” &nd so the mother who urges her elder children to drink milk ever puzzled. If she doubts son’s theory she upport by Charles Bennctte of Waterloo, Towa, who defended the milk diet vigor- ously. Dr. Simonson believes that i ad because | s positive upon the ve organs solid food.

C It takes a long time to get a letter from Dar-Es-S; . Tanganyika Territory, East , to Washing- ton. B Afric radio the distance between Dar- Salaam and Washington, with proper equipment provided, is only a minute fraction of a second. By telegraph and cable, with all the in- cidental delays in transmission, the distance is only an hour or so. But by letter, it still requires about two to get news through, liam M. Mann captured a glraffe for the children of Washing- ton has just been received at the Smithsonian Institution. Here is how Dr. Mann the capture “Since writing you last I others at their various po started out again on the quest for a young rhinoceros. I took with me Charles B. Goss, the best hunter of big game in Bast Africa. “Same Old Thing.” | “It was the same old thinz. We went into the Morogoro district, where Mr. Goss knew of rhino. We saw tracks every day and_ adult rhino every othe But there were no voung ones. 1 have no excuse for not getting one, except that there is a great deal of chance in it. You run itcross them or you don't. T shall re- member Africa a place full o3 Yhino trails to follow. “We camped near to and far from drinking places and waited both early in the morning and late in the eve- iing. We built piatforms in trees Wove the water holes and watched 4ll night. Any amount of game came to drink — impalla, wildebeeste, con- zoni and so forth. A lion circled us halt a_dozen times and three hyenas came directly beneath us. But there were no young rhinos. Fi time whs getting short, T reluctantly left there and went into the Tulo country, where there are any amount of giraffes, hoping to get some of them at least. “We camped alongside a stream and one could come across giraffe within half an hour of camp in any dlrection. The one good way of get- ting giraffe is to run them down vith horses. But there dre no horses here on account of the tsetse flies. The two Sultans we had asked to help us came to camp With their men. For days the men kept coming and woing, about 400 being with us all the time. They have nets for game like coarse seines which are 20 feet long and 5 feet high. “A hundred of these nets make a great line. After the mets are set the natives form a large circle about a herd of giraffe which has been previously located by our scouts and attempt to drive them into the nets. Bt they won’t drive. Once out of hree or four times we got them headed our way, and in_each case the big bull that headed the herd dashed through the nets, the others following in_single file. This hap- pened day after d Natives Fail to Help. “Keeping on in this way and losing hope with drive, we finally built a corral and tried to drive them in. The natives could not get the idea. Twice we had young in the corral, and twice the natives failed to close in at the proper tim “Then we had a bit of luck—we managed to surround a youngster. 1 ve got it by the neck and another got it by the tail and it fell We sent to a nearby house for native bed, put 2 feet of grass on it, loaded the ha on to it, and | took it into eamp and into our reed | When it stood up describes left the @nd | day after each new not to arrive too late in the season I shall have to start home very soon now. “Incidental to the giraffe drive there was rhuch excitement. Once we got a whole troop of wart hogs into the circle and drove them into the net. The big ones got through, but we caught some of the half-grown ones and got them into camp, where they are thriving and keeping us busy trying to get enough food for them. Once a half-grown one got tangled in the net. Goss jumped on it and at the same time one that we had not seen, a huge, full-grown one, hit the net, wrapping itself and Goss and the young one all up in a struggling mass together. It was exciting for a moment, but all three got out un- hurt s wart hogs can give terrible gashes with their tusks, my heart was in my mouth. I could not shoot the big one, as in the struggling mass composed of Goss and the big and lit- tle wart hogs, surrounded and ob- scured by the net, it was impossible to tell which was which. One of our natives did get a bad bump and v gash from a boar. Impalla Rounded Up. ‘Another time a herd of impalla surrounded. The impalla is the most graceful antelope in Africa and it is a treat to see them leap and run. They headed toward the net and most of them simply sailed across, but five jumped short and we have them in a corral now. “One evening we circled a field of tall cane to see what would come out of it. For a few moments the drive went along_all right. Then a lion grunted right in_the center of our cirele. You should have seen the boys cluster in black knots and wave t] spears and shout mightily. We not blame them, for walking in a regular line 10 feet from the nearest man in grass more than two feet higher than our head and armed only with a spear makes you sud- denly feel very lonely when you hear a lion. “A near-tragedy happened at the same time. A buffalo charged one of the men, hit him square with the tip of the horn, knocking him over, and dashed away. Luckily, the tip of the horn struck a rib, which it did not break. Half an inch higher or lower wvould have heen fatal. That would have been a sad thing as so far there have been no casuaities among the boys. Trip Called Success. ‘“‘Excepting for my failure with the rhino the trip is a great success so far as the collection is concerned. New things worthy of mention since my last letter are fennecs, two fine greater koodoo calves, more leopards and hyenas, a 14-foot python, and a hunting dog. The hunting dog was an'animal I especially wanted. It is a beautiful animal. I have seen them in the field twice. They hunt in zig- zags and scour the country for game. They are a scourge to the antelope. The ones we saw were in tall grass and kept jumping up and looking at us and barking hoarsely. “I was advised against returning by way of the Cape of Good Hope be- cause all the ships take a long time to get there, stopping in some cases a week in each port, so that the food question would be a serfous one. Also the cold weather off the cape would add to the diffieulties. In going up the coast to the Red Sea we might pick up some additional animals, but then it would not be possible to ful- fill the quarantine regu best way seems to be by W lombo, Ceylon. There is no stop be- tween here and Colombo, so that the trip is short. We transfer there to a boat direct to New Yor NG_STAR WASHINGTO |PORTO RICAN LABOR CHILDRE Letter, Months on Way.
