Chemists Approach Isolation of Life-Substance; Discover Arthritis Cure; New Friendly Virus of Shadow-World Brought to Light Artkar Briabna* therapeutically as it shows itself successful clinically.'’ Dr. Seydel’s compound has for two years been carefully applied at the Jersey City Medical center. “In many cases,” he said, “It was found that the compound gave pro gressive and definite relief of the three major symptoms of arthritis —pain, fever and swelling. The swelling disappeared; the pain was alleviated or driven away entirely; Some one preparing a list of ten things that Christians would and would not do says: “There would be no private wealth; Jesus denounced great pos sessions as alien to His gospel, and fatal to His kingdom. “There would be no poverty and no war, because real Christians would refuse to fight.” In this civilization.

For without cortin your skin’s pigmentation would change; you would slowly become brown, and then you would con tract Addison’s disease and die. Cortin is a strange hormone secretVd Vjryour suprafenal gTamfsT These are flat bodies above your kidneys and are important to what is called the “symphony of glands.’’ The cortin which they supply keeps various constituents of your blood—urea, potassium and sodium —in their normal relationships. The exact chemical nature of cor- < ^‘ tin has long been unknown, and no one has been able to give }t to you If your suprarenal glands atro phied and ceased to produce it. The news about cortin today is that the isolation of a crystalline compound closely resembling it, and perhaps opening up the way to isolation of cortin itself, was reported at the ninety-second meeting of the Amer ican Chemical society in Pitts burgh. Discoveries Are Many. Only one of many fascinating dis coveries reported in one historic week by the chemical society and the Harvard Tercentenary at Cam bridge, Mass., was this. Among the hundreds of papers read, there was one telling of a substance which has relieved many test cases of arthritis, one of the most painful a discovery of a new virus which, instead of causing disease and death, actually destroys bacteria which are harmful to man; new revelations in diet which, it is claimed, are capable of building a race of supermen and superwomen; a new subetance prepared from the fig free which will destroy worms and parasites in human intestines, and many others. The crystalline that resemble cor tin was isolated by research work ers ia the famous Mayo Brothers clinic at Rochester. Minn . and was presented to the chemical society by H. L. Mason.

One of the most enlightened edu cators in America tells teachers and undergraduates that the important thing is the general welfare, not the individual welfare. An excellent idea to put into the minds of young people. They should also be told that in dividual welfare and striving, with selfishness back of it, is the founda tion of general welfare. The baby wiggling its arms and kicking its legs in the cradle is build ing up one more strong baby, for its own sake, not for the general welfare, to which it, nevertheless, contributes. The man, concentrat ing on his career, and on the care and education of his children, has chiefly in mind his career, children and family. But he also is building up the general welfare. Each tiny coral builder worked only for its own speck of coral, but beautiful islands are the result.

The substance is called a “cal cium double salt of benzyl succinic and benzoic acids.” Its application of the benzoate group of drugs is said to be entirely new from past uses, in that it “detoxifies” the body fluids or “humors.” “Contrary to the revered belief that arthritis is of infectious origin, we preferred to consider ft as caused by intestinal stasis (stagna tion), with an accompanying dis function of the liver end gall blad der which adversely affects the 1 1 * j which has the same etroy boci ana as fee which saved hundreds of lives dur ing fee World war.

Dr. W. M.

Fig Sap Kills Worms. It was the'opinion of the scien tists present at the meeting that Dr. Northrop’s discovery indicates a possibility that there may be more of these semi-beings in their twilight world who — or which — will further aid man in his battle for life against deadly bacteiia. From the milky sap of the fig tree comes a substance which kills worms and parasites in the intes tines of men, as reported to the American Chemical society by Dr. Alphone Walti, from the laborato ries of a manufacturer in Rahway, N. J. Dr. Walti described the product, known as “ficin,” as a powerful, protein-cleaving enzyme in crystal line form. He said it was the first ever shown to destroy living cells. Science, heretofore, had believed that enzymes were without effect on living cells. He declared that ficin is the first protein-digesting enzyme to crystallize from plant sources. Its story has a romantic back ground.

He added that one of the great problems of to morrow is to find “what chem ical substances in food, if any, can give intelligence, courage and alert ness to the inhabitants of a city. “Can we feed to produce nervous strength and mental agility?” he asked. “At present it is more than doubt ful if chemical factors alone in the food are sufficient to achieve such ends, for we are biological and not physical entities,” Dr. Armstrong said. “All that can be said is that cer tain chemical elements assume our racial and individual peculiarities; they become truly ourselves, where as other chemical substances only pass through the body. “Food is the first of all the weapons of preventive medicine, and it must be the function of the agriculturist in the near future to grow complete foods and not mere market produce.
