SURGICAL OPERATToN.-The operation of
lithotomy {removal of stone from the blad-
der. } one of the most severe and critical
operations known to the science OF surgery,
was successfully performed on Tuesday upon
Mr.. Henry II. Pitts, merchant Of this city
by DIR. David Kennedy. Several friends of
the patient witnessed the operation Mr.. Pitts
has suffered several years from this difficulty
but it was only week before the operation
that he was made aware of the real cause of
his complaint.
REcoyERY.-Mr. Henry II Pitts has re-
covered from the effects incident to the oper-
alton, the closing OF the wound being com
pleied on the 18th day. Ills general health
is good-better than i; has been for years,
while he is perfectly free from all those dis
tressIDg symptoms characteristic OF the
disease with which he suffered. Had this
and similar cases used DIR. kennedys .Fa-
vori,e Remedy" in the early stages of the
complaint the formation of stone would have
been prevented. '.Favorite Remedy also

DEsTRUcTIBILITY Or HUMAN Bones :
An instance Of the readiness with which
human bones disappear is shown in the
fact that the Dutch Government in 1873
drained off the great Harlem Lake, on
which there had been many shipwIecks
and naval fights; aud where thousands
had found watery grave. The canal
and trenches dug To considerable depth
through the rescued land are estimated to
have an aggregate length of thousands Of
miles, and yet not single human bone
was exhumed from firstto last. Some weap-
ons and few coins and one or two
wrecked vessels alone rewarded the eff
forts and researches Of the curiosity hunt
ers. Here, as in cavern deposits AMI riv-
er gravels generally, works of art alone
furnished evidence of the existence Of man.
even though no part of the deposit could
be more than 300 years old, a. the lake
was formed by iuundation toward the end
of the sixteenth century

SOME people have an idea that the
prohibition Jaws Of Maine are Of lit.
tie or no effect. State statistics tell
a different story. The population
numbers about 100000. There are
40 distilleries in the State, but four
bre~eries, q wholesale liquor stores
and iO2 retail saloons. For "medi.
aHd mechanical purposes" the aver.
age consumption OF liquor last year
was fifteen cents for each citizen,
while IN the rest of tho Union the
liquor till averaged fifteen dollars
lur each iuhabtant. In temperance
reform Maine is farin the lead, and,
SO TAR from regretting it, the people
take pride III their advanced posi-.
tion and seek to continue it.-"In.

The "iifteen block" puzzle is the
prevailing craze. Its construction is
extremely simple. 1t consists mere
Iy Of a box large enough to contain
sixteen square, fiat blocks, of con
venlent size, although but fifteen are
used, the vacant square being the
constantly shifting place to move
upon, IN arranging the blocks in
numerical order, in four horizontal
or perpendicular lines. The puzzle
is capable of solution, but it is said
to be extremely difficult, and the
effort, apparently so simple, has be.
come an absoT bing mania, with many
who have tried it.
ALL the cattle belonging to Binn
