Appendicitis.

Appendicitis is a great fad among
certain physicians. A little collie, a
little stomach disorder or a little
something else and they straIghtway
diagnose the suffering to come from
this new fad, and declare the necessity
of an operation. The following little
doggerel covers the views of these
learned doctors
Have you got the new disorder2
IL you haven't, IDS in order
To succumb to ii at once without delay,
II is called appendicitis,
Very different from gastritis,
Or the common trash diseases Of the day.
1t creates a happy frolic,
Something like the winter collie,
That has often Jared our inner organs some,
Only wrestles with the wealthy,
And the otherwise most healthy.
Having got it, then you're nigh to kingdom
come.
Midway down in your intestine,
Its interstices infestin',
Is little alley, blind and dark as night,
Leading of 20 simply nowhere,
Catching all stray things that 60 there,
AS pocket it is simply out of sight.
1t is prone to stop and grapple
with the seed of grape or apple,
Or a soldier button swallowed with your pie.
Having levied on these chattels,
Then begin internal battles
That are apt to end in mansions in the sky.
Once located never doubt il,
You would never be without It,
It's a fad among society that's gay;
Old heart failure and paresis
Have deoamped and gone to pieces,
And dyspepsia has fallen by the way.
Then stand back there, diabetes,
For here comes appendicitis,
With brood OF minor troubles on the wing;
So, vermiform, here's hoping
You1l Withstand all drastic doping,
And earn the appellation 'Unorowned King

AS USUAL.
He Had Forgotten All About What His
Wife Wanted.


A few weeks ago prominent
Washington lawyer left home to
go to his Office. His wife asked
him for the fourth consecu-
tive day to do a certain errand
for her at one Of the downtown stores.
Her husband said he would attend to
the matter, provided he did not forget
all about it before he got two squares
from home.
"Let me fix it so you will not forget
it, my dear" said his wife, as she re-
sorted to the old scheme of tying q
string around his finger.
About 2 o'clock in the afternoon the
lawyer met gentleman friend on the
street, and in shaking hands the
friend noticed roll of dirty string on
the lawyers finger.
"What are you wearing that string
for?" inquired the friend.
''By George!" exclaimed the lawyer,
"that's to remind me to do an errand
for my wife. must go do it right
away, too, and keep peace in the fam
ily," and he started off for one of the
dry goods stores.
All the way to the store door the
lawyer tried in vain to think what it
was his wife had asked him to buy.
He walked four blocks out of his way,
thinking of every article he had ever
known her to use; still he could not
think what it was that she wanted on
this particular occasion. Finally,
thoroughly disguised with himself, he
returned to his Office, called mes
senger and wrote note to his wife,
asking her what she had put the
string on his finger for. He waited
nearly an hour for the return OF the
messenger, paid the boy sixty cents,
and then had the extreme pleasure of
reading this from his lovely little wife:
Dearest: did want you to get me
some clinical, but knew you would
never think of it, so sent Mary down
this afternoon and she got it for me-"

doubled that Of the older one. During
the early years Of the institutes life Its
conventions were held at somewhat II
regular intervals. but o dinner was
eaten every year ON Washington birth
day. These gatherings still live In the
memory Of some Of the older members
with q vividness that nothing can dim,
bnt no records of them are now to be

One of the most beneficial movements
made by the institute was the arranging
for the publishing by q Boston firm OF
The American Architect and Building
News, the initial number OF which ap-
peared In 1875. It's establishment has
been followed by other periodicals OF o
somewhat similar character, among
them being Architecture and Building
OF New York, The Building Budget and
The Inland Architect Of Chicago. and
The California Architect of San Fran
cisco. Another very important accom-
plishment by the institute was the issu-
lng OF o schedule for the guidance of
practitioners In their relations with
clients, including the charges which
reputable architects I'm Europe, In their
practice since early In the last century,
had laid down az minimum fees. Sev-
eral times che schedule 40 originally
formulated has been changed, and In Ito

/ More than one architect, especially
among the younger members Of the pro-
fession, has been enabled By the produc-
ton Of the schedule TO smooth ont com
plications with clients over fees while
yet they were In the embryonic state.
The institute has constantly made for
the uplifting Of the architectural profes.
sion, and It's influence upon public

full as well as useful structures, and the
ranks of the profession were filling mp
with bright young Americans and tai
ented. well trained foreigners. Tt was
yet ten years later before this local So
ciety was Joined by architects outside
New York in the effort TO unite lin fell
lowship the architects OF this continent
and combine their efforts so as to pro-
mote the artistic, scientific and practi-
cal efficiency Of the profession"
Then, in 1867, those who remained OF
the membership of the first organization
united with the New York society in
obtaining a charter for a new national
body Of architects, Judge Roosevelt OF
the New York supreme court granting
the document, with cordial wishes for
their success. The title of the New
York body was retained, and during the
first four years the growth in member
ship was rapid and steady. Then came
the outbreak OF the civil war in 1861.
So many of the best Of the architects
went to the front that it was found i'm
possible to continue the institute meet
ings, and SO they were suspended for
about three years. But the institute did
not disband and before the contest was
! concluded resumed its functions al they
were before the war.
Since 1864 it's membership has in
creased every year, its progress being
according to periods of ten years, for In
| 1867, Just q decade after the formation
of the national organization, 90 years
after the birth of the New York insti-

livan and r. W. Gibson. To many
readers these anne may not count for
much, but to the architect and the stu
dent of the evolution Of the American
idea in architecture they mean 3 good
deal, for these men are numbered
among those who have contributed i'm
mensely toward the progress that has
been apparent in America during these
later years, both i'm the direction of a
national school of architecture, and also
toward the creation of buildings that
are really beautiful and admirably
adapted each to the use for which 1t is
designed.
The prototype of the American Insti-
tute Of Architects came into being near
II so years ago, when a less than o
dozen OF the few competent architects
then practicing their profession IN the
United States gathered at the Astor
House, in New York, and formed the
American Institution of Architects.
The names of the men who Q inter
ested in that organization have since
been written large in the list of the
pioneers who paved the way the archi-
tects of today are treading with such
marked results These latter are no
doubt, as a body, far In advance Of
those who passed before in freshness Of
design, in harmonious treatment and in
achievements, but still, when due allow
ance il made for the narrower opportu-
mites enjoyed and their work Is exam
ined, il must be conceded that the found
ers of the institution possessed abil-
ity that must be regarded with great
