RISE IN VALUE OF GLANDS
Dr Serge Voronoff, of the French
Academy or Medicine, lias got the doc
tors. academies and savants of Paris
excited by announcing the discovery
of the fountain of youth, faucet of
youth, or something equally as good
for old and decaying folks- Indeed.
American surgeons, too. have been
making rather big claims themselves
along this line.
This Parisian surgeon's "fountain”
is the interstitial” gland, which fur
nishes fluids to the body that promote
vim. vigor and general (riskiness. He
has taken this gland from an anthro
poid ape, planted it in the flesh of a
broken down old gent of <56 years, and
now the old gent aforesaid has got
more youth than he knows what to
do with.
Of course Dr. Voronoff had to ap- i
propriate tin ape's gland because he!
wouldn't find any young man who was!
willitig (•• give up his "interstitial”1
for experiment on the 66-year old j
Sent, but the latter hasn't as yet tried I
to climb trees or throw his friends
down to hunt (leas on 'em, and so
the ape gland will probably answer
the purpose, if folks will risk going
ibout with part of a monkey in them
that may cut lose at any time.
While positive as to the restoration
->t vim and vigor. Dr Voronoff is care
ful to state that gray hair does not
iQtum to black, new teeth don't sprout,
ind weak eyes do not become stron?.
White-headed, toothless and wrinkled,
the old man is just filled chock-full
jf youthful gaiety- everything in the
way .if youth except the looks. And
we know sonic old men who are fixed
that way now. without any ape’s "in
terstitial.” and they are holy terrors!
We wonder how high the cost of
‘interstitial" glands is going to lie.—

LESTER JONES REPORT
DECLARES NEED FOR
BETTER COAST SURVEYS
The annual report of the Superin
♦endant of the ( . Coast ai d fJeod •
tic Survey to the Secretary of Com
merce came to hand by the last mail
and discloses that Superintendent E.
Lester Jones is continuing’ his long
insistence for more comprehensive
coast surveys in Alaska waters. His
report foi the last year points out that
most of the steamer routes along the
.Southeastern Alaska coast have been
sounded but that more drag surveys
are required to complete the surveys,
of which about fifty five percent have
been finisher) Relative to Norton
Sound, the report says additional sur
veys are needed and avers there are
no existing surveys of liering Sea
which can be considered of value, ex
cept those made in the vicinity of the
Pribloff Islands. The volume covers
every branch of the work done by the
Coast and Ceodetie Survey during the
year in \inerican coast waters and
contains a large number of maps show
ing the work so far completed and the |
surveys still required to insure safety
In a letter to the Nugget accom
panying the volume. Mr Jones calls
attention to his efforts to center at
tention on the need for more extensive
Alaska surveys and ventures the view
that when the navigable waters are
made safe for commerce and Alaska’s
natural resources are developed, there
is no reason to believe the territory
will not become fully as important as
the northern nations of Europe.
