Washing Out the Stomach.

During the past year several physi
clans in New York have tried, with
a gratifying success, novel treat
ment for dyspepsia and cancer of the
stomach by washing out that organ.
The process is very simple and not
dangerous. A long flexible pipe is
passed down the throat until one end
is in the stomach. The upper end
has funnel attached, into which
hot water is poured until the stomach
is filled. The weight of the water in
the pipe and funnel gives a hydraulic
pressure sufficient to distend the
stomach. The pipe has an aperture
big enough to hold a lead pencil.
After the stomach has been filled,
the funnel end of the pipe is turned
down until it is lower than the bot
tom of the stomach, and the stomach
is emptied as barrel of any fluid is
emptled through slphon. The pro-
cess may be repeated several times.
The result is that the undigested food
and mucus are washed out, and the
hot water closes the blood vessels
and reduces inflammation. The re-
lief is immediate. The dyspeptic
may have his stomach washed out
before meal, SO that he can take q
fresh start. After the lapse of suf-
ficient time for ordinary digestion,
the stomach may be washed out
again. This process has been in use
at the New York Hospital, we are in
formed, for some time.

has turned out to be the needed help.
Personally, / have no faith in this
chance mode. ] believe we are to
search the Scriptures diligently; not
to trifle with them. We should have
plan in our work; Nowadays skeleo
tons are prepared for us. Professor
Harper, of Yale, has arranged excel~
lent ones, more especially for college
students. To the man who has put
good solid work in filling in these
skeletons the reward has been rich.
We have our Sabbath School lesson
papers. OF course, we can go on in
the easy, careless way of spending
five or ten minutes on each lesson be-
fore class, or we can give much care
full thought to them, with correspond
ing profit. How much better it is to
do clean, thorough work; first to con.
slider the subject from all the stand
points indicated by the plan, then
to connect our scattered thoughts so
that we can grasp something definite
at the close of our study. Why is it
that boys and girls, who are conscien-
cious students six days in the week,
are so Indifferent toward the most
important lesson that comes on Sab
bath? Intellectually as well as NOR
ally it is wrong for scholars to be al
lowed to slide along so carelessly. AS
in the case of desultory private read
ing, l admit that, owing to the rich
ness of the book of life, the chances
are they will get some good, but the
fact still remains that they are not
doing their part, and that their edu-
cation is fundamentally wrong,
Let us remember, then, that we
have work to do five would get
what there is in store for us. Let us
take book of the "divine library"
and study it intelligently, sentence
by sentence, chapter by chapter, and
as a whole. 1t is to be hoped that
many of us have love for the sacred
writings strong enough to induce us
to employ method in our work. II
the rest of us can get up enthusiasm
enough to start with, interest may
grow to be love. The beginning Of
systematic study is worth a great
deal. We are likely to appreciate its
advantages, and cling to it. So ler
us commence without delay, if We
are not already pursuing the prOpeI
course. We must work while TIT
day lasts, not listlessly, but with &C
tivity and energy, believing that on
, reward will be prOportionate to on
r labor.

Seeing.

81 was reading of painters child
who became blind in infancy. But,
after the child was nearly grown,
surgeon removed the blindness.
When told that this could be done,
the child's chief thought, her mother
being dead, was she would be able
to see her father, who had watched
over her with great tenderness.
When sight came she was in raptures,
and ran her hands over her fathers
face, and shut her eyes as if to assure
herself that this was really the father
whom she had only known by touch,
and now looking upon him, noble
man as he was in appearance as well
as in reality, she cried out: Just to
think that l had this father so many
years and never knew him. AS
great and greater is the SOULS joyful
surprise when the scales fall from the
eyes and the long spiritual darkness
is ended, and we look up into our

Study of the Bible.
New York Evangelist.

New York Evangelist.
"To derive any real advantage
from a study of the Bible, we must
get out of our heads the idea that we
are too wise to be taught by it. The
more teachable we become, the more
we learn in all schools, and especially
in the divine school. Self-cOnceit is
not good preparation for any school.
And it is also true that we shall fail
to receive much spiritual profit from
diligent searching of the inspired
volume, when that searching is maed
not so much from a desire to learn
the truth as to forge weapons against
some one who happens to differ from
us in matters of mere opinion, and
that neither regards as of the first
Importance. We cannot get on much
while searching the Scriptures in this
spirit"

Faith.

Those who have little faith or trust
in the promises ofanother world are
generally agonized with fear at
the thought of quitting this. 1t is
natural, indeed, that it should be so /;
for if through life we have entertain
ed firm hopes of Immortality, these
hopes remain, and brighten at the
portals of the tomb. But those who
have disbelieved and those who
have doubted have nothing to cheer
them in the dark transition and if
they have had misgivings those
dreary misgivings last, when all the
vanities that covered them have
melted away like snow.

What are We Doing With Our Bibles /?

The Waterman. !
wonder five are all making the
best possible use of the Bible? Per-
haps that is an ideal. Let me ask
this question; Are we doing all we
can to put ourselves in a correct atti-
tude toward the Book of books; to
understand, as fully as we easily
might, what it is, and how we are to
use it?
All Christians are supposed to read
their Bibles every day. The amount
may vary from a verse or two to a
chapter or two. But how is the read
ing done? Possibly a good many
of us have been wont to read our
chapter as the last duty of the day.
Very likely some of us, tired and
sleepy, have failed to profit largely
by our reading. We have OCCASION
ally stumbled on verse that has APP.
pealed to us more or less, no doubt. l
have been benefited by just such de-
sultory reading. But what kind of a
way to do anything is that? 1t is
like the work of a listless mechanic.
The heart is not in it. The man who
does his work well, on the other
hand, has the satisfaction of know
ing it, and is continually becoming
more skillful. The person who stud
les the word of God faithfully and
honestly, not only has the satisfac
ton of knowing that he is doing an
important duty and making the most
of great privilege, but is at the
same time being richly rewarded by
an increased understanding of the
Scriptures. Each one can but decide
for himself how to get a clearer in
sight into the Bible, but let US all Sc,
to it that we are reading with oper
eyes, that we are improving the op
portunity of learning about our Crea
tor through the book be has givel
us.
In the first place, let us get up
little enthusiasm on the subject. A
least, let us open the New Testamen
with as much interest as we take VI
a daily paper. The ways of approach
ing the Bible are countless. Some G
us may need to be reminded sthat
is library, not a single book; tha
this collection of books is compreher
sive; that, having stood the test {
ages, it comes to us for us to get hel
from; that we are to use what W
call common sense" in studying i
taking into consideration the fat
that God, through it, is speaking
sensible beings, who have a certai
amount of understanding, and al
supposed to exercise what they hav,
and in order that all mankind ma
enjoy the rich blessing, the Language
for the most part, is in extremel
simple garb. Those who are fond
history can begin by mastering SON
book of biblical history; all who az
preciate the excellencies of Englis
literature having an inexhaustib
mine of gold to explore. If one likt
biography, what study is so interes
ing, so helpful, or so inspiring as IL
life of our Lord and Saviour, jest
Christ.
Now, then, with such rich matters
at hand, let us use it systematicall,

Almost too Mean to Live.

Attached to the medical staff of one
of the hospitals of this city is young
man who, if medals were awarded for
meanness, would be among the first to
receive prize of this sort. He has
become so notorious through his selfish
habits and niggardly ways that most
of his friends have long ago given him
the "cold shoulder" This, however,
has not cured him of his meanness.
If anything it has aggravated the COM
plant.
1t will not be necessary to mention
his name. DR.. X. will do therefore
as well as any other. He is tall,
handsome fellow, and, what may be
considered remarkable under the cir.
cumstances, has abundant means.
His father, well-known gentleman
of considerable wealth, allows DR.. x.
enough money to support him hand
somely. And doc" spends it, too,
with lavish hand, but only on his
personal adornment. Hardly a day
passes in which doc" does not dis
tinguish himself by some new act of
meanness.
At an uptown hotel, where doc"
until recently boarded, there came a
month or so ago handsome young
lady from southern state. doc"
soon found out that she was rich and
he soon began to show her the most
pronounced attention. To all appear
ances it was case of mutual attach
ment. DOC" was handsome, we'll
hammered and we'll dressed. So there
was no reason why Miss Blank should
not accept DOCS" proffered suit.
Nearly every day DOC" handed
Miss Blank a bouquet of flowers.
Violets and Gala lilies prcdominated.
DOCS going to have bad attack of
heart disease" was the general verdict.
"He's spending money on someone
else" One day Miss Blank received
a particularly large bunch of lilies.
She wore them in her dress as she APP
peared in the parlor that evening.
doc" was not present on that par
ticular occasion. The house surgeon
at his hospital was though, and he
was duly introduced to Miss Blank.
The conversation turned on various
topics, and finally DR.. x. was brought
under discussion.
