Humanism has much of the vagabond spirit. It recognizes the lutility of boundaries, national or academic, and the barren wastes of ordered patterns. Often it gathers as little moss as any rolling stone. Erasmus, on the other hand, humanist of humanists, picked up much moss in his travels to Oxford and France. Those more regular and ordered souls who have sat through a year of History 7 point to the lecture on Erasmus as one of the many high points of the course. Professor Whitney will deliver it at 11 o'clock, this morning in Emerson...
...speak of him as "Lane." Last week he gave a short talk to some 65 well known practitioners over their luncheon, demi-tasses in the stylish Union League Club, Manhattan. Now those who call Sir Arbuthnot "Lane" know that he is not the man to wad a speech with moss-bound medical verbiage, and they were therefore surprised to find in the newpaper synopsis of what he had said at that luncheon the frequent recurrence of such terms as "intestinal toxemia," "s t a s i s," "chronic stasis," "chronic intestinal stasis," "Gospel of prevention," "prolonged retention...

Some years ago a German physician reported that workers in the mines could be relieved from fatigue by small doses of sodium phosphate. Now Professor Neville Moss of the University of Birmingham claims that miners working in a temperature of about 100° become exhausted less easily when drinking water that contains even 0.2% of common salt. The British physiologist, J. S. Haldane, explains this as due to the fact that the salt added to the drinking water makes up for that taken from the body by perspiration. Scientists are inclined to regard the matter as empirical and await controlled...
