Medical Society cf Parle Sends Out a
Warning.
The Medical Society of Paris haa
expressed the opinion that it is neces-
sary to adopt some measures against
the alarming spread of petroleum
drinking. At first It was thought that
this habit had sprung up from the in-
creased taxation on alcohol Imposed
by the French government, but aa In-
vestigation showed that this was not
the case; the habit had been preva-
lent some time previously in certain
districts and had spread with great
rapidity. The victim of the petroleum
habit does not become brutal, only
morose. Opinions differ among physi-
j clans aa regards the effects of petro-
leum drinking on the human system,
but all agree on the harmfulnesa of
this new Vice.

By Ingenious methods the advance of
reinforcements or the thinning of a
line of infantry or the advance of a
column of soldiers is simulated. Bal-
loon targets are used to represent
lines of sharpshooters tying in a

and when punctured by a bullet they
soon collapse, showing the firing fine
that another enemy has fallen. The
agility ot sharpshooters is represented
by g variety of targets which can be
made to pop np and down out of
trenches and behind embankments at

tached to sleds and drawn over the
surface of the ground by steam power
or by horses.

According to an English physician,

the other hand, the child of a white
mother and a black father will, after
a month’s time, be nearly as black

whom pictures are simply more or leas

which they never see, but about which

Pictures increase the wealth of their
minds by adding to them new mental
images of things which were before
represented only by meaningless
words. A child’s horizon widens when
he can conceive, even indistinctly, of
the bodily appearance of a waterfall,
a farming scene, an historical char-
acter or an ancient costume or city.
