FLU GERM IS ISOLATED BY YOUNG DOCTOR U. of Chicar', Professor Sees Prospect of Antitoxin. fin f nitrd Pre*t CHICAGO, Dec. 13.—As a Christmas gift to the world, six arduous years in the making, a modest young University of Chicago professor announces the discovery and isolation of the influenza germ, with promise of a hopeful prospect for an antitoxin that will stem the scourge. Sixty students assembled in a cluttered, acid-stained room in Ricketts laboratory Thursday night, heard the momentous announcement from the lips of Dr. Isidore S. Falk, 30-year-old professor of hygiene and bacteriology. He referred to the germ as of the pleomorphic streptococcus type and said it looks “like a microscopic chain of unmatched beads which a child has strung together." Simply, as if announcing details of anew lecture course, the tall, dark-haired young scientist told his listeners about the germ and how it was discovered, giving much of the credit to his assistants. There was nothing in his manner to indicate he was becoming, as he spoke, a conspicuous world figure and an outstanding candidate for the next fcJobel prize. “We are hoping,” he said, “that a vaccine prepared from dead microbes of the influenza germ can be absorbed through the mucous membranes of the nose and throat and thus effect a cure.” With fourteen members of *he biological department to aid him. Dr. Falk toiled during the epidemic a year ago. working sixteen hours or more a day.

Get the facts about Konjola from the Konjola Man who is at the Hook Dependable Drug Store, Illinois and Washington streets, Indianapolis, where daily he is meeting those who come to find out what Konjola means to them in their search for health. Asa typical 'example of Konjola at work, read r the statement that Miss Ruby Petty, 606 Fletcher avenue, Indianapolis, made to the Konjola Man a few days ago: “Asa medicine Konjola can’t be beat. It certainly gave me the surprise of my life. I was suffering a rundown and overworked [system. I was highly nervous, became worn-out easily and lacked energy to do my work or enjoy life. could’nt remain still for any length 'of time and often got up in the mldtile of a show to go home. I knew that I was in need of a good tonic and medicine and that I needed it Boon or I would go into a decline. “Well, that need was filled by Konjola. Daily I read and heard What it was doing for countless Indianapolis people and I wisely reasoned that what Konjola had done for others It would do for me. I decided to put it to the test and that Was all that Konjola asked, just to be put to the test. Without hesitation it went to the source of my troubles and began to build up my system. Anew feeling of health surged through me. My organs were cleansed, regulated and invigorated. My nerves became calmed and settled and I gained 'back all my lost strength and energy. I can hardly believe that I was ever in such a rundown condition and I owe all my glorious health to Konjola. I will praise this medicine as long as I live.” So it goes: the same splendid story of success whenever Konjola is given the opportunity to make good. Here is, indeed, a medicine of deeds, not words. The Konjola Man is at the Hook Dependable Drug Store, Illinois and Washington streets. Indianapolis where he is meting the public daily, introducing and t>merits of this new and different medicine.—Advertisement.
