SCOTT'S EMULSION

BY FATE

DIED ON EVE OF FINDING TUBERCULOSIS CURE

DR. JOSEPH SEVI, clever Jewish research worker, died, his relatives believe, when he was on the threshold of perfecting a cure for tuberculosis.

Dr. Sevi was found dead recently in his rooms in Cazenove Road, Stoke Newington.

Death was due to heart failure,

A glass and a bottle found on a table, how- ever, have been taken by the police for examina tion.

Dr. Sevi led the life of a recluse.. All his time was devoted to scientific research; he spoke several languages,

As a young man he qualified as a French surgeon, and began his studies at the famous Pasteur Institute. Here he came into close con- tact with the terrible effects of tuberculosis and decided to try to find a cure.

"He discovered a geruim to treat tuberculosis is children while he was working at the Pasteur Ins titute," Mr. Ferdinand Fishman, of Len Bridge Road, Clapton, Dr. Sevi's brother-in-law, said. "

"I understand he was working hard now to solve the problem of curing tuberculosis in adults."

"Had Ten Degrees" Mrs. Fishman said: "My brother was a brilliant man, and reports that he might have com- mitted suicide have greatly upset

me.

"I was told when I visited the mortuary that death was due to heart failure.

"My brother had ten degrees, including L.R.C.P. (Lond.) and M.R.C.S. (Eng.). He was a French barrister, too. He came to Eng- land in 1921 to continue his re- searches.

"The drugs in his rooms were for these researches, and he did not lack money-£30 was found there,"

Mr. and Mrs. Dorn Milward, who occupied the house where the doc tor lodged, sald Dr. Sevi alwaya seemed preoccupied.

"He never said 'Good morning' when I met him," said Mrs. Mil- ward, "and at nights he would walk up and down. He wouldn't allow anyone in to clean his rooms, and be cooked his food himself."

LENIN'S SISTER DEAD: TSAR DEATH PLOTTER

Moscow, Nov. 1. Lenin's sister, Anna Ilyichinn Ulyanova, known as "the oldest Bolshevik," plotter against the life of the Tsar Alexander III., and fellow-worker with her famous brother, died yesterday at the age of 71, at Gorki, the Moscow suburb where Lenin himself died 11 years ago.

She joined the revolutionary movement when a young girl, and was 23 when she took part. lin the

assassinate plot to Alexander III,, organised by her brother, Alexander Ilyich.

By Making Noises They

Are Making Fortunes

HOLLYWOOD'S STRANGEST · PROFESSION

Hollywood, Nov. 24.

One of the strangest professions in the many strange professions represented in Hollywood is that of making noises.

1

There are approximately 25 people in this group whợ go through life making fortunes at the same time.

Their names are never shown on the screen, and nobody outside. the studios knows who they are, but the films would be a great deal poorer without them,

Take Pinto Calvig, for exam- ple. He is the voice of Pluto the Pup and other characters in the Mickey Mouse cartoons.

This group of noise-makers is almost a closed corporation. No ethers can gain adraission for the purpose of imitating birds and for screaming, crying bables grunting, neighing like a horse or mooing like a row.

When hicconghing was needed on the set of "The Milky Way," Harold Lloyd's new plature, Ruby-Ray was secured.

Miss Ray was singing in grand opera last year, but now she is Hollywood's leading bird-imitator and artistic whistler.

It was Miss Ray who supplied the

A man, Eddie Delmar, is sald to be Hollywood's best baby-crier.

Claire Vincent is the leading

screamer.

Of course there are some actors in Hollywood who can still make their own peculiar nolsca at times outside the bounds of ordinary speech-people like Lionel Barry- more and Wallace Beery, for ex ample.

One of her most notable achieve- ments, which marked her resource- fulness, was in 1896 when managed to maintain contact with Lenin, who was imprisoned in St. Petersburg. and secure A copy of the programme of the Com- munist Party drawn up by him in code.

For the last few years she had lived in retirement and ill-health had forced her to relinquish her work on the history of the Com- munist Party, as a member of the editorial board of the journal Revolution, The Proletarian and on the Board of Education with Lenin's widow, who continues her activities.

The remaining members of the Lenin-family-are-a-sister Maria and a brother Dimitri, of whom little is heard.

SOVIET NEWSPAPERS IN BRITISH MUSEUM

London, Nov. 15. Somewhat to its surprise, that highly respectable institution, the British Museum; has received an fmmense quantity of Soviet official newspapers, embracing the plete files from 1924 to 1993-the most important period of the Soviet regime--of Izvestia, Pravda, Ekonomicheskayu Zhizu and other periodicals.

com-

What is more, the British, Museum is now the only public in- stitution outside of Moscow where complete files of these journals can be seen.

Explanation of this signai hon- 'our, it is understood, lies in the fact that it was under the vener- able dome of the British Museum reading room that Karl Marx wrote the larger part of "Das Kapital.”

However, there Jan't room under the dome for the Soviet newspapers and they will be filled with all other newspapers in a suburban fire- proof warehouse where periodicals are kept.--United Prena.
