PULLING TEETH WITH THE AID OF
CHLOROFORM.

The dispatch in yesterdays REGISTER
announcing the arrest Of Dentist DAY, OF
Chicago, for malpractice, seems on the face
Of the returns to be pretty clear case OF
gross earelessness in the administration Of
that powerful drug, chlOroform. BE was
warned his patient had heart disease, which
he stoutly contested did not exist, and ad-
ministered the pain killer. The account Of
the operation is qaits startling and runs
thus:
Mrs. SHAY was placed in the operating
chair. At this point she requested the dentist
10 place her under the influence of gas that
the pain incident to her ordeal mi ut be in
q measure deadened. She was afflicted
with heart disease, she sad, and was sp-
prehensive of the result if eithe- C the
aresthe;ics occasionally employed at such
uu., we're given her. Her sister suggested
that perhaps she might incur no risk from
ether. To this DR.. DAY is said to have
strenuously objected, and finally declined
to use it. he told her she was no more
affected with heart disease than himself,
and, taking her pulse in his hand, after
pause reafirmed that decision. Chloroform
was then administered, and, when sufh-
GENTLY under its influence, Day began the
ussofinstrnmeDtsi in extracting the patients
teeth, Mrs. MADDEN meanwhile retiring to
the hallway adjoining the Office to await the
conclusion OF his labors. After he had in
part accomplished the work the patient re-
Yiyed and was again reduced to iusensibiliy
by the drug. Wilhelm that condition half g
dozen more teeth we're taken out, when she
again revived and clorOtorm was again re-
sorted TO. Soon after the administering ii
the last application Mrs. MADDEN, who was
yet in the hallway, glanced through the
hall opened door and saw the dentist Ct
desvoring to restore respiration to the inssn-
sible subject. as there anything the mat

Some Home Truth About the Way People
Write Letters.
NJ u

There is Q great amount of uutruth about
the formal examinations to many OF our let
tiers. "Your most obedient servant Is, OF
course, every word of it false when 1t pre-
cedes the signature Of person with whom
we have never, psrhsps exchanged WORD
in our lives. Are there any obedient sery-
ants, to begin with. nowadsys2 What a
host of obedient servants some people are
favored with If those who profess to be so
were TO sign themselves Yours, respect
fully" there would be little more sem
blsnce of truth in the assertion, and we
should be able to form 3 more correct estl-
mate OF our establishment Of most obedient
servants
Ever yours sincsrelyT goes step be-
yond Yours truly" and might lead 70
number of most painful receptions, If long
use had not taught US to know better, than
10 believe in such sincerity. Seeing, then,
that very frequently not one OF the three
words, ever yours sincerely have an atom
of truth in them, would it not do Just as
we'll to terminate with the name OF the
writer and q greeting, the same as though
we lad met our acquaintance IN the
StrsetsP
Fancy such thing as telling half dozen
men that we were truly theirs, and dozen
nrheIs that we were ever theirs sincerely, and
gur receiving similar proteststions every
time we meet! Foreigners kissing aud hug,
gipg in the streets would be nothing to It.
