...causes of these outbreaks are vareid. Protein decomposition is probably the commonest cause. Meat and meat products of all kinds, fish, shellfish, milk and milk products, such as cream, ice cream, choose and all substances made with milk, such as pastry and pie fillings, may be the cause of the dirturbance. The food need not be spoiled, with disagreeable order and taste, yet may produce intestinal irritation...
...prehistory. Ireland was not inhabited in Pleistocene times, as Britain and Europe were. Settlers arrived from Britain about 7000 B. C., bringing Stone Age implements some 10,000 of which the Harvardmen found. In geological strata of this period pollen grains of elm, alder, beech and oak and fossil shellfish reveal a warm climate. The Bronze Age began about 1800 B. C., the Iron Age not until 100 A. D. From then until the Anglo-Norman conquests (12th Century) the Irish lived in wicker huts, wooden houses or crannogs-lake dwellings. Still being explored is a royal crannog where Irish...
...becomes a ghoulish poison running through the unconscious town. The butcher inexpertly throws an axe at his wife. Jim Clancy jumps off the pier at low tide. It rains and rains.

Animals must have cloven hoofs and chew the cud (but no cud-chewing camels, no split-hoof swine). Fish must have both fins and scales (no sharks, no catfish, no shellfish). Birds must not prey. No creature that "goeth upon the belly" is kosher. Nor is one that dies a natural death (disease might have caused death). Because the Torah reads, "Thou shalt not seethe a kid in its mother's milk," kashruth separates meat and milk dishes. Anything cooked...
...Lake, who has been building submarines since 1894, built this one as "the first purely commercial type in the world." His financier is M. S. Moss. Manhattan showman. They expect to sell their machines to the sponge, coral, pearl, nacre and edible shellfish industries. Mr. Lake, who at 66 still hopes to make a stable fortune from submarines, enthusiastically projects "possibilities for the submarine in the recovery of gold and oil, laying of submarine pipes and cables, surveys of harbors and coastal waters, and possibly naval use for life-saving and salvage operations...
