The doctors in attendance on President Gar
field, having found that another pus cavity was
forming, decided TO perform a second operation
by catting into the channel of the wound. Civ
ing the pus free vent. a Washington dispatch
gives the following particulars of the manner
in which the operation was performed by Dr.
Agnew: As soon as the patient had been put
under the influence of ether, a long and
slightly curved instrument was introduced
into the wound, pushed between the ribs and
carried downward along the track of the bullet
until its end could be felt below the last NIB
from the outside. Holding this instrument in
the wound as a guide DR.. Agnew then made
directly through the integument until his knife
met the end of the aforementioned instrument
at the point where he wished to intersect the
track of the ball. The operation was not diff
ficult or dangerous one, and the patient bore
it and the etherization well. There is now an
opening to the deeper parts of the wound,
which does not pass between the ribs, and
which can always be kept free and unob-
structed and no other trouble from the ac-
emulation of pus is anticipated The slit in
the Presidents back is now about three inches
long, extending ON either side of the injured
rib. The new drainage pipe taps the wound
from below, permitting the discharge 10 fall
naturally downward, instead of forcing its way
up hill or around the corner, as has been the
case heretofore. The operation was Of course
performed with perfect accuracy, and accom-
plished its purpose. Thus another obstruc-
ton to recovery has been boldly and skill
fully gotten out Of the way. The President
speedily recovered from the effects of the
ether, and asked DR.. Bliss what had been done.
The doctor told him, and he expressed himself
as well satisfied.

The Gasfric Inire

When vitiated, as it always is in dyspepsia,
poisons instead of acting as a solvent OF the
food, which decomposes in the stomach, giving
birth to an acid, that rising in the throat stings
the palate, and causes the exceeding unpleasant
sensation called heartburn. Carbonate OF
Soda and other means are often resorted to for
the purpose OF Temedying this, but with no per-
manent good effect The wiser way is to Grad
icate the atrocious disease which originates
this and hundred other harrassing symptoms.
Palpitations of the heart, wind on the stomach,
oppression in that organ after eating, and
sinking sensation in it at other times, in short,
all the indicia of chronic indigestion are re-
moved by Hostetters Stomach Bitters, fore
most of stomachics and invigorants Appetite
and nerve tranquility are impaired by its use.
In its food supply the United States
has a surplus of $40, 900, 900 bushels of
grain and 1,076, 900 tons of meat. Great
Britain has a deficit of 280,000,000

Single vs.. Married Soldiers.

1t has long been a mooted point
whether single or married men make the
best soldiers.
Some maintain that the lack of wife
and family tends to make a man more
reckless of his life-therefore 3 good
soldier.
Others say that the married man is
almost veteran when he enters the
ranks, being Injured to combat-there-
fore good soldier.
In the recent Tunisian campaign a
colonel was questioned upon this point.
"Both are right" said he. "Look
yonder-do you see that battalion of
happy, devil may-care fellows? They
are all single men, and they would take
their lives in their hands. But look
again-do you see those tacituru, SOM
Der, gloomy-looking men there? They
are all married, and in hand to- hand
fight they are terrors."
What's the name of the battalion r.
asked the inquirer.
"They are called" said the colonel,
grayely, the Children of Despair ;"
