"Chicago Physician Contends It Is Due to an “Agcumulation 'of Toxin"” Peoria, I1l;, Nov, 2.—Advancing. a new theory, contrary to most previous heliefs concerning chronic fatigue, Dr, Edward H. Ochsner, Chicago, president-elect of the Illinols State Medical Soclety, in an address at the Trimedical Asso¢iation convention de- fined the “tired business man'" as spf- fering from ‘‘accumulation of fatigue material or toxin.” A “The disease,” he said, “is a condi- tion particularly liable to affect hard working, successful businessmen at an age just when they are most needed in a growing business. The sloven, the laggard, the phlegmatic and the weak willed are rarely ever affected. Rest, while important, serves only to check the accumulation of fatigue.’ An important surgical discovery was introduced in an address by Dr. John T. Finney, head of the depart- ment of surgery of Johns Hopkins university, Baltimore. The' new the- ory involved a new method of con- necting the {intestine to the stomach in an operation for disorders of that organ. - PROF.

At present drivers going north and inv tending to turn into North, street are forced to make a wide sweep around the silent officer and have difficulty picking up speed to climb the North street hill.
