NEW THEORY AS TO SHOCK , Medical Man Points Out Some Flaws In Beliefs That Have Been Generally Accepted. In an article on Intestinal stasis printed in the Medical Record, Dr. Frank R. Starkey of Philadelphia advanced a new hypothesis as to what “shock" is. “W|mt is this mysterious condition of depression which we call shock he asked. “In view of the radical changes that have taken place in our understanding of physics since the advent of the electronic theory we know that the different physical manifestations of matter are simply differences In the vibration of the component electrons. The difference between the individuality of persons is not merely one of physiognomy or cor poreai peculiarities, but their personality depends upon the rate of tlieii electronic vibrations. The human body is naught else but an aggregation of cells, each a world within itself, made up of various components which are finally composed of elec trons vibrating in perfect unison ai.d the entire organization attuned to vibrate in one harmonious whole “In view of all this, why should it not be reasonable and rational to de-fine-shock as a disturbance in the nori mal vibrations of the electrons of the organism? This would certainly conform to our recent knowledge.” POOR SPORT FOR THE HUNTER Hippopotamus Hard to “Bag,” and Really Worth Little When He Has Been Secured. There are two ways of bagging a hippopotamus, says a writer in the Wide World, and neither is justified ■ unless the sportsman is sorely in want; of food, for its meat is very poor indead, and wants a good deal of preparation to be palatable to anyone except the starving. It has a taste I can only describe as fishy—something of what beef would taste like after being wrapped up for a couple of days j with a Scotch haddock of doubtful i freshness. The hippo may be shot in water: when mortally wounded he will sink, and will not reappear on the surface for several hours, consequently a tiring lookout has to be kept for the carcass. If he is only slightly wounded he may charge, but more often he will fee and x die in the reeds, to serve as food for scavenger birds or crocodiles. The other and more sporting way is to shoot him on land. This is, as a rule, only possible at night, or late in the evening cr early in the morning. It would not be wise to find oneself between the river and the wounded hippo, for he at once makes for the water by the shortest route, and he gees so fast that getting out of his way requires pretty speedy feet and great coolness of nerve. A Famous Shot. A good story is told on a trading . ! agent in Nyassaland. He was ob- | sessed with a particularly real horror ‘of lions. One of these brutes began i to eat up the natives of the nearby j village, doing terrible havoc. The I agent barricaded himself in his room and slept with six native watchmen | on duty in case the lion should try I to break into his house. One night he thought he heard the lion prowling ] around, and promptly fired cut cf the window, knocking a hole in the government boat. The following morning he was astonished to see what bad I happened. That night he again heard sounds which seemed to foretell the : presence of the lion. He seized his I rifle and fired, and this time succeeded in bagging the district officer’s faj vorite mule at the first shot. Acer- j tain well-known sportsman, who shall i be nameless, was hunting in the dis-; trict and heard the story. He wrote to the agent and congratulated him cn shooting his first lion. The agent rose to the occasion, and now silences all skeptics by producing the letter. ' He has since acquired quite a reputation as a lion-hunter on the strength of this testimonial. —Cant. W. Robert Foran, in the American Boy. Live Dangerously. I rejoice in all signs that a more I manly, more warlike age is beginning, which will, before all things, bring bravery once more into repute! For I it must prepare the way for a still i loftier age, and store up the force nec-1 essary to it —that age which shall ’ carry heroism into the domain of 1 knowledge and wage wars on behalf of I ideas and their consequences. . . . i Believe me, the secret of extracting the I greatest profit and enjoyment from existence is this, live dangerously! Build your cities on Vesuvius! Launch your ships on uncharted seas! Live at war ■ with your equals and with yourselves! Be robbers and conquerors, ye enlightened ones, so long as ye cannot be rulers and possessors.—From “The Joyful Wisdom,” by Friedrich Nietz-1 sche. Sure to Get What He Wanted. The doctor told him he needed car- ■ bohydraies, proteids, and above all, something nitrogenous. The doctor mentioned a long list of foods for ' j him to eat. He staggered out and ■ wabbled into a restaurant. "How about beefsteak?” he asked the waiter. “Is that nitrogenous?” The waiter didn’t know. 'Are fried potatoes rich in carbohy- ■ drates or not?" The waiter couldn’t say. “Well, I’ll fix it," declared the poor , man in despair. “Bring me a large i plate of hash.” P I
