DIONNES'BIRTH IS ASTONISHING TO SCIENTISTS No Births of Quintuplets Is Recorded in 1932 Figures. Tku la Ikt Inert* af an •( ill •rtifVi on rnulitpi* birth*. Hu tir4rn r t Hfrt lff In many animal ipecirs, it is ruatomary for several young to be bom at the tame time. But with man, such multiple birth* are *ulfir;enUy .are *o that the arrival of t*;n* is alleys the cauae of Interested comment. The blr’h of a number larger than two is considered phenomenal. During 1932. the latest year for which figure* are available, only 236 sets of triplets were born in the whole United State*, and in fifty-six of these case* not all the members were living at birth. Os quadruplets, only six cases were reported, and in only five cases were all four living a: birth. So births of larger numbers were reported. Human infants usually arrive singly because, in humans, nature ordinarily provides for the release from her storehouse of but one egg cell at a time. It is in this single ceil that the human being has his origin. Under unusual conditions, however, due to causes which are not completely understood, nature allow* the release of two or three of these egg cells at a single time. Eggs Rarely Develop This trick of nature is not particularly rare. According to Dr. A. F. Guttmacher, Johns Hopkins university physician and scientist, it happen* about once in every five monthly cycles, but it is relatively rare that both eggs develop into living creatures. When they do tw ins or triplets' are born. But twins or triplets I formed in this fashion are not es-1 penally like one another except as they share in the genera! tendency I for members of one family to have I resemblances. About 70 per cent ol all twins are of this dissimilar, or 'fraternal’' type. The twins that are mistaken for | one another, that are as alike as I two peas in a pod, are formed in a different manner. These Identt- j cal twins ha\c their origin in but one single cell which begins to de-, \elop in the ordinary fashion.

Myriad Oils Grow All living creature*, from the humblest form of jellyfish to the wisest college professor, have the same beginning as a tiny single fertilized egg cell or ovum. But the egg cell very soon divides into two and then these two split into four and this process continues until, long before the birth of an infant, there have been developed all the myriad cells which make up the human body. Way back in the very earliest part of your life, when that original ovum had divided into a group of several cells, half the resulting cells were destined to become the righthand parts of your body—your right eye. right ear. right nostril, the right side of your brain, and so on —the other half became the twin parts on the left-hand side of your body. Biologists therefore say that even, normal individual is a perfectly balanced and combined pair of twins. Cel! ltarvly Separates Once in a great while, because of something which disturbs the normal course of development, the cell may separate into two entirely distinct parts, each of which develops into a complete and perfectly balanced human being. It has been found that the right hand of one of these persons is more like the corresponding hand of his twin than it is like his own left hand. He is more like his twin than he is like himself. The formation of these identical twins mav bo considered a biological accident just as is the development of fraternal twins. Some heredity or other factor, not clearly understood as yet, hinders the norma! development of the individual

BODY WAS FULL OF RHEUMATISM

Indo-Vin Cleared It From Her System: Had Pains All Over Her. MRP EDNA BARTON, of 1226 Nordyke Ave . Indianapolis. has now comp forward with her TRUTHFUL and REMARKABLE statement praising Indo-Vin, which is the new, scientific mixture of Extracts from Medicinal Plants, now being introduced to crowds dailv here in the city of Indianapolis by The InrioVin Man in person at Hook's Drug Store. Illinois and Washington Sts. Mrs Barton is calling Indo-Vin a “Oodsend to her health" and says that she could almost write a book about the way it acted on her system and relieved her misery. Following is her statement: “If anybody ever suffered more from rheumatism than I did in the past YEARS I don't see how they could stand it,” said Mrs. Barton. •'I had this rheumatism all over me. and it would strike me first in one arm and then in the other and then it would go into my hips and I also had it very bad in my left knee and even had it in the back of my neck. In short, it just seemed like my WHOLE SYSTEM was poisoned and full of this rheumatic affliction. Everything I ate would disagree with me and turn aour and form regular loads of gas inside of me. I was just a bundle of nerve*' and couldn't get a decent night of rest, and I would drag through every day halfsick and all of my energy- had gone from my body. “I thought I would never find anything to help nv\ for I had tried medicine after medicine, but when I got Indo-Vin it took command of my trouble FROM THE START. This medicine by It* great natural action has eliminated all the poisons from my system and

Conspicuous in science’s effort to preserve the health of the Dionne quintuplets are the famed Baltimore specialists Dr. Howard Kelly (above) and his son Dr. Edmund Kelly ibelow). With a $600,000 gram of radium they Journeyed to the modest Dionne home in Callander. Out., to treat Marie, tiniest of the five babies, for a blood tumor on the thigh.

Quake Rocks Mexican Village R;l l mit<tf Press C ELAYA. GUANAJUATO, Mexico, Aug. 10.—A series of earthquake shocks rocked this village today. Several houses were destroyed. The inhabitants fled to open spaces in fear, but no casualties were reported. and causes the division into two or four parts. The Dionne quintuplets are likely to have among their number both identical and fraternal twins for although the chances are small that both these types of biological acci- : dents would occur at the same birth. ! ihe chances are even smaller that five separate egg cells would be re- : leased from nature's storehouse at i the same time and that every one of these should be fertilized and | come to birth. The chances are even more remote that a single cell would divide into five parts, for the | cell division does not produce odd numbers.

MRS. EDNA BARTON

that awful rheumatism that had been over my body is all gone now and the joints of my hips and legs are limbered up now. I can walk straight now, and I don't even limp any more. You dont know howwonderful it is to be free of those awful rheumatic pains. My meals are digesting perfectly now and my food agrees with me and it never turns sour and forms gas in my stomach like it used to. My nerves are in such a fine condition now that I can go to sleep and get a full night of rest, and this certainly makes a big difference, in the way I feel every- morning. I always get up refreshed. This medicine is the most wonderful thing of the kind that I EVER HEARD OF and I am glad to publicly endorse it to all who suffer." The Indo-Vin Man is now at Hook s Dependable Drug Store. Illinois and Washington Sts. Indianapolis. daily meeting the public and introducing and explaining this new mixture of Nature s Medicines. Also being sold in all nearby towns by every good druggist throughout this whole Indianapolis section.—Adveruseemnt.
