Marriages Among Deaf NIutes.

The education of deaf mutes, and the
teaching them trades, so that they be-
come intelligent and productive members
of society, of course induce marriages
among them. Is not this calculated to
increase the number of deaf mutes? DIR.
Gillette thinks not. The vital statistics
show that consanguineous marriages are
a large factor in deaf muteism; about 10
per cent, it is estimated, of the deaf
mutes are the offspring of parents re-
lated by blood. Ancestral defects are
not always perpetuated in kind; they
may descend in physical deformity, in
deafness, in imbecility. Deafness is
more apt to descend in collateral branches
than in straight line. 1t is striking
fact in IA table of relationships prepared
by DR.. Gillette, that while the 450 deaf
mutes enumerated had ITO relationships
to other deaf mutes, making a total of
of 1920, only twelve of them had deaf
mute parents, and only two of them one
deaf mute parent, the mother of these
having been able to hear, and that in no
case was the mother alone a deaf mute.

Magazine.

Ten Carloads of Potatoes.

The funniest thing in town is the mis-
hap of a gentleman whose wife runs the
store bill. He has been in the habit of
having his cigar bill charged up as pota-
toes, and the other day his wife took her
pencil and began to reckon. She finally
found out that they had been whooping
it up at regular starch factory rate in

carloads of potatoes this winter and the
past year, and she just didn't believe

Cowardice of the Suicide.

Rarely do we have suicide from
noble motives, though suicide himself,
as rule, takes the ground that somehow
he is hero. Here again is delusion
amounting almost to insanity, and yet
falling short of it. What to the de-
stroyer of his own life seems pathetic
sacrifice looks to the world more like a
freak of vanity, self pity or ehagrin.
The wretched murderer, in the inevitable
manifesto which he issues before his act,
assumes that he himself is the one that is
chiefly to be pitied, whereas, in most
cases, he forfeits all claim to sympathy
by base desertion OF duty, and all the
goes out to the victim of his cowardice.
AS cowardice in some one of its myriad
forms is almost the sole motive to sui
eide, this crime is essentially contempti-
BILE, and, therefore, any secret impulse
to take refuge in it should be sternly re-
jected by the true man or woman. Life
often looks forbidding and dark, but
only craven will surrender, even if no
other heart will bleed but his own. And
what aggravated cowardice that is
which, rather than oppose trouble, sinks
away just when the need is the greatest
This is to desert in the face of the enemy

heinous soldier can commit.

Wounds of the Abdomen.

Modern surgery, aided by antiseptics,
has enabled surgeons - accomplish re-
suits which, twenty-five years ago, would
have been deemed impossible. This is in
no department more marked than in the
abdominal surgery. While formerly a
wound of the abdomen, either from a
gunshot or stab, was considered almost
necessarily fatal, at the present day many
lives are saved by an operation, which
consists in opening the abdomen, tying
every blood vessel that may have been
lacerated, and sewing up any wound
which may have been made in the in
testines. Science.
