For four years Mr.. 4. NJ. Sparks has bee
troubled terribly with stone In the bladder
On "Wednesday last DR.. George HALEY, {
Kansas City, a surgeon of eminence, assiste
by Drs. Fulkerson. Chambers and ~straushar
performed a surgical operation upon him b
which they removed a calcHlous concretiol
or stone, 81 inches in circumference In on

will be no recurrence Of his difficulty. Ther
