BERKELEY, Cal., Oct. 12. — The
founding of an institute of medical re
search, by the University of Califor
nia. was made possible recently when
> Ur. T. Brailsford Robert son, profes
sor of biochemistry of the institution,
the discoverer of tethelin, deeded over
to the university ail his patent rights
and prospective profits of his new dis
covery, with the proviso that the pro
ceeds be used to found such an insti
tute. Tethelin. the substance which
causes tissue to grow in wounds that
nothing else will heal and which is
extracted from the pituitary gland at
the base of the brain, was discovered
by Dr. Robertson a year before the
United States entered the present war.
It was not only acclaimed a wonder
ful discovery by the medical world,
- but was immediately pressed into ser
vice in the base hospitals in France,
and has been used with singular suc
cess in alleviating many frightful
Wounds, which without its use would
have been impossible of cure.
The deed to the university ineiden
:ally places the discovery beyond the
pale of possible exploitation and con
serves to the use of mankind at1
large at a normal expense.
The only reservation in the grapt
for the benefit of Ur. Robertson is that
if he should at any time become dis
abled for work his present salary at
the university shall continue. And fol
lowing his death this salary is to be
paid to his widow, should his wife sur
vive him. The regents have acceded
to the reservation,

FIRE!
A resident of Cordova had a
small fire in his house the other
day. It was extinguished by the
family at a loss of $150.00. The
next day he insured through us.
The cost of his insurance for
three years was less than his
loss at this trifling fire. Are
you, Mr. Property Owner, going
to wait until you have had a fire
before protecting yourself from
loss?
Any person wishing to build
can secure a fine residential on
business lot in Cordova from us
on exceptionally liberal terms.
Five hundred lots listed.
