I to Physicians
J., June 7.?In the
j for the insane at
here is a patient term*
ne, a living deed man*
>yster.M The victim is
i whet if probably the
r known to medifcsl
itia praecox catatatonecords
)Ut his identity
?, 28, but physicians rei
his address or admit
really is.
>m this mysterious ails
pufcxled medical men
throughout the world?have been very
few??0 few that physician* have had
very little opportunity to delve into
the cause and cure of the disease.
I Famous physicians from all over
the world have visited Kade to study
his case but returned homo more 1
puzzled than when they first viewed 1
the patient. All of them, however, |i
have come to agree that if the patient
can be kept alive for six years '
he will recover. i
<' Kade was taken to the Cooper hos- i
pita! here last November?literally a <
living corpse. He was deaf, blind, U
paralysed. All his nerves and mus-J
clfs were numb, his jaws were aoj1
tightly locked that he had to be fedi1
with liquids by a tube through his I
npstrile.
Since that time, doctors say, hel
has not even twitched an eyelaah. I
His heart action, pulse and breathing,
however, are normal. Experiments
of all kinds have been resort-1
ed to in an effort to rouse his numbed
faculties but without result.
Physicians now agree that the only
thing that can be done is to keep him
alive by use of liquid nourishment,
for six years when he will recover!
the use of his nerves and nuMcles. 1
Dr. Grant Barry, chief of the department
of mental diseases of the
Philadelphia General hospital, has
carefully diagnosed the case and predicts
the man will recover if fed for I
-six years as he is apparently In nor?|
mal physical condition.
Dr. Blurry, however, carefully explains
that if Kade lives six years 11
he will become possessed of superhuman
strength and will have to be '
strapped securely until he recovers. :
Needles stuck in the victim's body 1
haVe no effect. Guns -^discharged |.:
close to his ears also failed to awaken I
the man. Doctors have crossed I
Kade's fingers, his legs and tilted his
head, to return a week later and find 1
them in the same position they left
them. I
- . I
; Governor Fuller of Massachusetts, I i
has called on heads of Harvard Uni- '
versity, Massachusetts Institute of J <
Technology and a former judge of '
probate for aid in reviewing the case I
of Nicoli Sanco and Bartolemeo Van- 1
zetti, under sentence of death for al- '
leged murder committed more than i
six years ago, and whose cases haven
inspired international interest. 11

THIS WAY TO SAVB MOST \
a
Building and Loan Aeaociatlons Offer 1
Way For Systematic Savin**
Thrift i? not aa simple an it seems
U> be. It ia easy to encourage ltd t
practice, but saving i? seldom effect- e
ive unless systematically practiced. d
thousands of young men and n
women enter the business or profes- t>
aionai world fully intent upon begin- *
ning immediately the amassing of an Q
astate. Thousands are the opportun- 3
Ities offered for investing on every V
hand. The type of investment, how- t
ever, that does not offer a system- f
stic program, whether regular or op- t
tional, can seldom effectively serve, h
The type that does not fit iUelf convsniently
into the restricted income, *
and does not take into consideration '
the peculiar conditions that surround 11
and often restrain the would-be young *
investor; can hardly be of great serv- f
ice. ?
With steadily increasing living
costs; with such a wide assortment
of tempting luxuries on every hand, t
and with a shockingly increasing a
standard of living, the young man or h
woman of moderate means absolutely r
requires a form of installnp-nt, sys- H
tematic saving, or else the germ of J
thrift must fight too great an up-hill
battle. Now-a-day "he who saves, f
must necessarily save systematically." ^
it is that with a full appre- j
elation of the trend of the times, the J
modern building and loan association i
has adapted itself to fit conveniently I
into the prevailing conditions. It I
offers those of moderate means a
form of investment, that is flexible J
and can very conveniently be carried t
in spite of a small income. It offers
an investment, the payments of which
fall periodically to suit the income. ,
It offers a systematic form of investment
that is pre-arranged for those
who are not systematically inclined.
It offers a co-operative form of investment
that encourages the investor <
by the co-operation of many of his J
own friends and associates of similar 5
circumstances, who are mutually c
sharing in the same undertaking. ^
Above all, -however, the building and ?
loan association furnishes that needed t
urge, stimulation, encouragement* or 1
slight compulsion without penalty; *
that wards off the dangers of tempt- J
ing luxuries, and keeps the investor j
steadfastly in the straight and narrow i
path that leads to success. ]
Too much cannot be said in the 1
praise of the service rendered human- j
ity by the building and loan idea. It
has for years served to build our
communities literally. It is now *
serving to build and stabilize the
wealth of our communities. It offers
not only the opportunity, but supports
that opportunity by a program of education
that unites the community into
one mutual band of builders and investors.
We as individuals have each year
invested many millions" of dollars
through the building and loan associations
of the nation in an effort to
build homes for ourselves and
friends. f
A prospective native bridegroom in
Madagascar must stand before a
spearman who throws a sharp-pointed
shaft at him. He must evince no fear
but must catch the weapon between
him arm and his side.

VOMAN CARRIES MILES OP SILK
rake* 53a Silk Wormx to Make Tiny
Thread* for Pair of Stockings
The smartly drosaeo woman who
rips along the boulevards, or the cod
flitting about the campus, probably
oea not realize she ia carrying 112
ailes of silk along with her in the
orm of a pair of chiffon hose. This
etonishing mileage has been worked
ut by experts, who add that it takes
83 silk worms, consuming about 80
ounde of mulberry leaves, to make
he cocoons from which enough silk
(laments, or tiny silk threads, are
aken to make a single pair of chiffon
tote.
Most of this silk comes from Japan
,nd China, and about a tenth of it
rom Italy. Some attempts have been
nade to produce silk in this country,
totably in lx>ulsiana, Kentucky and
California, but they have not so far
iffected imports to any great extent.
