Can It Be This Doctor's Serious? MILFORD, Kas., Feb. 3.—A1l .Kansas was watching the outcome of the latest remarkable experiment of Dr. J. R. Brinkley, chief surgeon of the Brinkley-Jones hospital, in grafting the Interstitial glands of a goat Into human beings to cure those thus treated of sterility. Within the last two years by means of such operations Dr. Brinkley has made it possible for three men and one woman to become parents. In all four cases the glands of a male goat were used. In each instance a baby boy was born. In his most recent case Dr. Brinkley used the gland of a female goat "I do not say this woman will have a girl baby,” said Dr. Brinkley today, “but I am experimenting. It may be merely a coincidence that all the babies so far have been boys.” north by North street, the south by South street, the east by East street, and the west by West street, was fixed at 50 cents. The penalty for a first offense in violating the ordinance is a fine of not more than $200; for the second offense, a fine not less than SIOO, and for the third, a fine not less than SIOO nor more than SSOO.

Local taxi drivers said they have been forced to charge more than the fees prescribed in an ordinance passed in 1017 for several years.

The purpose of the ordinance is to eliminate ‘‘fly by night” merchants who are said to have been doing a large business here. License fees were fixed at $l5O per day. William Balch of the

Merchants' association said these “fly by night” merchants sold the merchandise at prices far above those charged by reputable stores.
