MASSAGE OF THE STOMACH.
How the Operation is Performed and the Re-
suits Obtained From It.

How the Operation is Performed and the Re-
suits Obtained From It.
New York HeraId.l
In the forms of dyspepsia that are due to
some disorder in the action of the muscles
of the walls o: the stomach, physical and
mechanical therapeutical agents, such as
massage, electricity and hvdrotherapeutics,
are usually valuable complement to the
dietic and pharmaceutical treatment The
massage of the stomach can be performed in
two ways-when the stomach is full OF when
it is empty. NJ. Cseri, of Pesth, has given
very careful set of directions for the mass
age of the stomach when it is full. It must
be done when the food has become thoroughly
impregnated with the gastric juice-that is
to say, two or three hours after meals, at the
very moment when the spontaneous contrac-
tions OF the stomach begin to pour its con-
tents into the duodenum.
The patient should lie fat on the back,
the head raised by two pillows and the
mouth open. It is we'll to begin by gentle
friction in direction running from the
larger curve of the stomach toward the
pylorus for two or three minutes. This
should be followed by kneading movements
in the same direction and for a similar
length of time, and then by more energetic
and deeper rubbing, to end up BY rapid
and gentle friction performed in such way
that the whole seance shall not last more
than 10 or Is minutes.
When this massage is skilfully performed
it is not disagreeable to the patient. 1t
drives out by the esophagus the abundant
gas which was disturbing the stomach; 1t
stimulates the spontaneous oontractions of
that organ and it relieves the customary

of this order are subject. If, after the
seance, the patient has an agreeable sensa-
tion about the epigastrium, accompanied by a
gentle feeling of warmth, this indicates that
the massage has been we'll done and that the
length of the seance has been sufficient. If,
on the other hand, there is feeling OF IA
tigue and desire for sleep, it will be neces-
sary to proceed more gently and to lessen
the length OF the seances in the future.

The Coal Mining

industries of Trinidad, COL, are something
really wonderful. The mines are what
are commonly called the ''side-hill
mines" SO frequently found in Pennsylvania
and other mountain mining regions. There
are three veins of coal. the upper one seven
to twelve feet thick, and so easily mined
that the miners at Soc per ton frequently
make to exceed 500 per month. The lead
ing operator there said that the time was
likely to come when coal would be put
aboard the car at Trinidad at 70 cents per
ton, and leave handsome profit to the mine
operator. For fult information address

tion Of things" continued Mr.. Hoyt. ST
am SO strongly identified with the song and
dance business of farce comedy that ind it
hard to break away, as far as the public IS
concerned and be appreciated in any other
vein. With the exception of "A Midnight
Bell, and "A Texas Steer" have written
nothing but farce-comedy and the variety
business. 1t is my desire to reach little
higher than this, and although cannot say
that have done so in the last two men,
toned productions, I have hopes of the fu-
ture.
FUN IN BEN BUTTERwoRTH.
''In the case of "A Texas Steer went to
Washington and carefully studied the
ground on which my principal scenes are
laid and the characters which my people
were to represent. In this was greatly as
sisted by nv friend Ben Butterworth and
others. l shall never forget the courtesy
with which they treated me in Washington.
Butterworth was something of humorist
himself, and j never saw a man to catch q
humorous suggestion or help out in the
elaboration OF one as he did. OF course my
characters are largely an exaggeration, but
in the expression of genuine comedy, this
exaggeration is not only allowable, but
necessary"
"Has the measure of your success in these
new publications justified you in your own
opinion in leaving the lighter vein OF farce
comedy with which you have been identi-
fed ?''
"Yes, I think so. 1 was little shaky
about the reception of "A Texas Steer in
New York, although we had done a pretty
good business on the road and had pruned
the play and rounded it out where it needed
it, but still felt some anxiety as to how it
would be received here. L watched that
first audience on the opening night with
considerable anxiety. While the result was
apparently satisfactory to others, was con-
yinced that the audience was disappointed.
That is to say. it came to see something it
did not see."
MUST REACH A NEW CLASS.
People who go to see variety business
will not be satisfied if they are confronted
with legitimate commedy. Those who turn
out to see tragedy feel as though they have
been cheated. out Of their money, if they see
nothing but fun. And so it goes. They ex-
pected to see in ga Texas Steer" something
like my other work and in this, of course,
they were disappointed. Now if I should
continue in new line of work it is perfectly
apparent to me and to any intelligent man
that must in one sense begin over again
and attract different class of people. In
fact I must shift my audiences. OF course
it will take time to determine how success

Mr.. Hoyt?" was inquired.

GUS playwriter, glancing at the sheet on his
desk and at his watch.
This was considered a pretty strong hint
and we took it. apologizing at the same time
for our interruption.

WORTHY OF A WAC.
A Practical Joke, With Ludicrous Ending,
Played Upon a Coachman.

A Practical Joke, With Ludicrous Ending,
Played Upon Coachman.
A gentleman who has something of a
reputation as wag, says Spare Moments,
was passing large Diapers shop. There,
drawn up. were three or four vehicles, and
among them was closed brougham with
the driver fast asleep on the box. Evidently
the mistress was inside the shop. Without
a word the wag stole quickly up, and OPEN
ing the carriage door carefully slammed il
to. In moment the coachman Strengthened
up and gazed down the street at the electric
light which was fixed there as if he had
never seen anything so interesting in his
life. Then he stole look over his shoulder
and saw the wag standing, hat in hand, ap-
parently talking to someone inside the car
riage. "Thank you; yes, good day." said
the wag, and bowed himself gracefully away
from the door, turning as he did so to look
at the driver, and say, "HomeP' Eyes, sri
tch! get upp' and off went the brougham
"home."
Where that "home" was, who the mistress
of the carriage was, or what she did when
she came out of the shop, or what the coach
man did when he stopped at the door Of the
home" and found the carriage empty, all
that only the coachman and lady know.

THE ROYAL Yachts.

A Descriptive List and Interesting Facts
Concerning Them.
The royal yachts, says Spare Moments, be-
long to the navy, and their crews are selected
from other ships or war. The yachts in
question are the Victoria and Albert, of
2,47O tons and 1850 horse power; the AL
berta, of $40 tons and 1, 20S horse power; and
the Elfn, of SO tons and 1S1 horse power.
These three are for Her Maiesty's own use,
the Osborne, Of 1850 tons and 8, 1850 horse
power, which is assigned entirely to the
Prince of Wales. They are all paddle
wheeled vessels, and the Victoria and AL
bert and Osborne carry two small guns each,
which are intended for signaling purposes
only.

ShipbuilderS' Pitch.

A new white pitch for shipbuiIders is
coming into use, and which, says the
Springfield Republican, supersedes the
usual laborious, expensive and inadequate
method of treating decks by working putty
into the seams with knife. The peculiar
ity of this white pitch is, as claimed, that
it is the only material yet introduced of a
white color that can be run into deck seams
in hot state like ordinary pitch. The
material is especially suitable for hot cli-
mates, as it will stand the suns heat in
stead OF melting out of the seams.

''Better things than medallions, Dick, I"
was the answer, in tones that recalled q
gray-eyed atoms fearless speech to Mrs.
Jeunett. Dick would have abased himself
utterly, but that the other girl trailed in.
Next Sunday he laid at Maisie's feet small
gifts Of pencils that could almost draw of
themselves, and colors in whose permanence
he believed, and he was ostentatiously at
tentive to the work in hand. 1t demanded,
among other things, an exposition of the
faith that was In him. Torpenhow's hair
would have stood OH end had he heard the
fuency with which Dick preached his own
gospel OF art.
A month before, Dick would have been
equally asJonished, but it was Maisie's will
and pleasure. and he dragged his words to-
gether to make plain to her comprehension
all that had been hidden to himself of the
why's and wherefores of work. There is not
the least difficulty in doing a thing if you
only know how to do it; the trouble is to
explain your method.

my hand, said Dick, despairingly, over the
modelling of chin that Maisie complained
would not "look flesh, lit was the same
chin that she had scraped out with the
palette-knife, but 1 find it almost impos-
sible to teach you. There's a queer grim
Dutch touch about your painting that
like; but I've notion that you're weak in
drawing. You foreshorten as though you
never used the model, and you've caught
Kamis pasty way Of dealing with flesh in
shadow. Then, again, though you don't
know it yourself, you shirk hard work.
Suppose you spend some OF your time on
line alone. Line doesn't allow of shirking.
Oils do, and three square inches of fashy
tricky stuff in the corner of pic sometimes
carry bad thing of-as 1 know. That's
immoral. Do Iine-work for a little while,
and then can tell more about your powers,

pure line.

Democrats And Silver.

The San Jose Herald thinks it very
strange that theChronicle or any 9TH
er Republican paper should advocate
she free coinage Of silver because We
gave the present Congress credit for
attempting to do something for the
white metal. The attempt has not
proved as beneficial as the friends of
silver hoped it would, but that is no
good reason why Democrats should
exult and audaciously assume that
there was any sincerity in the propO-
sal of their party to pass free-coin-
age measure. Everybody understood
perfectly that the proposition, COM
ing at the time and in the shape 1t
did, was not sincere, and that it was
only designed to block legislation.
To understand the position of the
Democrats on this question we must
90 back to the days of Cleveland
administration aud recall the letterof
the ex-president TO Warner of Ohio,
announcing coinage and urging its
suspension, and the fact that Grover
and his secretaries, in the interest of
Wall Street, preserved steady at
titude OF hostility to the white metal
which even went to the extent of

Fruit Growers Association.

Silverton Appeal: An effort is on
foot by the fruit growers in this
Vicinity to organize Pathological
society to embrace the whole of
Marion county, the object OF which
will be to cooperate with the State
Horticultural Association and to
disseminate knowledge pertaining
to the art of fruit growing amongst
its members. This is \ splendid
move and worthy the earnest sup
port OF every one interested in pro-
mitigating this promising industry
in our state. The value of organiza-
ton in matters uf this kind cannot
he over estimated, aud the move at
this time is certainly opportune, as
never In the history of the state has
there been such an interest taken in
this direction. Nearly every farmer
begins TO realize that money can be
made out of fruit and that the pros
pect for wheat farming IS discour-
aging; in every community may be
seen young orchards and ground in
preparation for planting this year.
Nurserymen say that more trees
will be planted in Marion county
this year than in any one season

Circular Letter to the q. A. r.

Commander-in.C Chief w. G..
Veazey has issued the following cir
cular:
Comrades: Since being elected
commander-in-chief l have visited
ten departments, six of which are
west of the Missouri river, and have
been more than gratified to observe
the hearty spirit of comradeship
everywhere prevailing, and the
growing pride in and devotion to
our noble order. The thought SEEM
ed to be in every mind and the
words on every lip that the Grand
Army of the Republic should be
made to round up one half million
comrades this year. The inspiration
of this thought was not mere pride
in numbers, but the advantage of
membership to individual character,
and the advantage of numbers in in
creasing the potency of the order in
its lofty work of Fraternity, Charity
and Loyalty. 1t is on the ground Of
individual and public benefit that 1t
becomes our duty to increase our
membership. There are yet several
hundred thousand worthy veterans
who served bravely with US on land
or sea, not yet with us in this organ
ization. If we do not bring in fifty
thousand or more of them this year
the fault will be our own. This
means an addition of about ten to
every hundred. Who doubts but
that this can be easily done? What
comrade will fail to do his part :?
What post will hold back? Let all
department commanders at once
take the leadership and direction in
this work in their respective depart
ments. have seen enough to know
that they will find cordial and en-
thusiastic response, both from indi-
viduals and posts. This is the best
season of the year for the recruiting
service to be made effective and sue
cessful. 1t should not pass without
our achieving results as grand az our
possibilities are great.

for many years past. While
prospects for fruit growing are
brilliant, success will be attended
only by thorough work directed by
an intelligent understanding of
methods practiced by successful
horticulturists of experience. There
are slugs and the woody aphis, bor-
ers and the codling moth, to con-
tend with and it will be the aim of
the society to familiarize the men,
bers with the means Of their exter-
mInation which may be best attained
by united and concerted action.
Besides, organization is indispensa-
ble i'm the matter of marketing fruit.
r. y. Allen, of Waldo Hills, informs
us that Prof. f.. r. Lake, horticul-
turist of the State Agricultural col
lege, and other prominent members
Of the State Horticultural Aassocia-
ton have promised 10 be present,
and that Messrs. f. Hofer, of the
CAPITAL JOURNAL, F. J. Babcock,
H. W. Cottle and other prominent
fruit growers are taking an active
interest IN the matter, and will be
on hands to help get the society on
a solid basis. 1t is decided to hold
the first meeting at Silverton on
Saturday, Dec. Is, at 10 O'Clock a. m.,
holding two sessions, one in the
forenoon and one in the afternoon
Let every fruit grower in the county
make it a point to be on hand.
The idea of the promoters Of this
move is TO have quarterly meetings
not at any particular place but
rather to distribute them over the
county and thus awaken an interest
throughout.
