A Promising Pupil.

A professor of philosophy had an
old housekeeper, with whom he ,offar
enjoyed a friendly chat, Just as Moliere
did when his servant Laforet. One
day at lunch he reverted to the sub.
ject of Fatalism, which he had been
expounding at the morning lecture,
and puzzled her with clever sophisms
to which she could find nothing to re-
ply, for "since a thing happens it is
certain that is was to happen and
could not have happened otherwise"
At six O'Clock the professor came in
again.
"Why.the cloth is not laid; isn't
dinner ready?'
Monsieur, there is no dinner"
"What! no dinner. How's this?"
because what is written is written.
If Monsieur is to dine he will dine;. if
he is not to dine it is not bit of use
my lighting the fire and setting the
pans to boil; Monsieur won't get any
dinner"
"Well and good; but if the effects
are decreed beforehand, so are causes.
That is just why people 60 down the
stairs instead OF Jumping out the win
dow"
That's what thought, Monsieur,
with out being able to express it; and
so l have made the dinner. LA

A SLIP MEANT DEATH.
An Enormous Tumor Cut From a
Mans Brain.

An Enormous Tumor Cut From
Mans Brain.
In the New York Hospital Dr. Rob-
ert f. w. Weir recently removed an
enormous brain tumor from the head
OF Pole, AZ years old. A number OF
distinguished physicians and surgeons
and several hundred students witness
ed the operation, one OF the most diff
cult known to surgery. The patient
WAS put under the influence of ether
and a hole three inches long by two
wide made in the base of the skull.
The most difficult part of the opera
tion was reached. That is the .explor-
ing of the cranial cavity and discov-
cry OF the tumor The tissue was now
divided for two-thirds the extent of
bone opening. AS this was done the
parts beneath protruded. 1t was seen
at once that portion of the pro-
truding tissue was not normal brain
substance. 1t was, in fact, part of the
expected tumor, which was too large to
escape through the opening. 1t was
OF a deep liver color and much like
liver in construction. 1t was envel-
oped in the folds of partially trans
parent sac, with larger vessels entering
it from the dura and brain substance,
to which it was attached. With di-
rector, and with the edge of spoon
handle a thin yellowish layer of brain
tissue was separated from it's outer
side. In the same manner the tumor
was loosened on all sides without
damage to the brain. To let the knife
slip one-sixteenth OF an inch meant
death to the patient. To remove the
tumor safely it had to be taken away
in pieces. In this manner it was at
last removed. The wounds were then
properly dressed and the patient re-
moved to begin the real battle for life.
