Leeches, like lancets, have gone
out of fashion, and some statis-
tics given by one of the French
papers as to the annual concump-
tion OF leeches by. the hospitals
in Paris for some years past show
how great has been the falling of
in the medical demand tor these
reptiles. From 1920 to 1924 the
number of leeches used annually
was $4,000; from 1924 to 1880,
50S,0OO; from 1880 to 1912, $685.
600 from 1912 to 1850, 100000;
from 1850 to 1856, 5000; from
1855 to 1868, 13s, 900; from 1863
to 1870, $4,000 and from 1870 to
1875, $4,000. In 1885 the cost
of leeches for the year to the
Paris hospitals was 10000 francs;
whereas at the present time it
does not exceed l,S0O francs.

In the death of Mrs. Lizzie Emer-

of the Independent Gazette at Lam
caster and daughter Of lion. John
w. Hartshorn Of this town, the hus-
band and family sustain great loss.
She was kind hearted, loving wife
and woman, not strong, but good and
true, rather retiring, but possessed, Of
sterling worth. She leaves two little
boys TO share a fathers loneliness.
She has bee. a member Of the Con
gregational church for soma years
and although G great sufferer, from
that terrible disease, "Tuberculous
Per.tonitis," yet all was borne with
out murmur; and now she "rests
from her labors' evermore. Mrs.
Emerson came to Lunenburg in Janu-
airy, to be with her parents, to rest
and recruit preparatory to taking u
journey for her health. Her parents
watched her failing strength with
great anxiety, and it was soon appar-
ent that she would never take but one
journey more, and that where the
"weary rest" Then came the untir-
ing efforts of parental affection and
care, for returning strength if possible,
and at best to sooIhe the pillow Of
pain and weariness, her father tender
ly WATCH; g over her, and caring for
her every night until the tenth before
her death. The weary watching is
now over, and may rest come to the
hearts and homes of the afflicted, and
may life be SO improved, that III the
dawn of that most beautiful morning.
