NOT CAUSED BY SEEDS.

The Fear of Appendicitis Said to Have
 Injured the Fruit Business.
 Fruit dealers say that the talk about appendicitis has injured their busi. ness. many persons refusing to buy fruit containing seeds. lest some of them lodge in the vermiform appendix and cause appendicitis, which requires an operation.
 But a physician who has performed several operations for the removal of the vermiform appendix said recently that he had not found a seed in the appendix of a single one of his cases. He said: "A small bit of digested mat ter gets into the sac if the neck of 1t is open to receive it. It may remain for years and cause no trouble and again appendicitis may result immediately. In healthy patient an operation for the ailment is successful four out of five times"

HOW TO KILL KINDLI.

--------
 Humane Society Orders Six Bruneau De-
 vices.
 Stimulated by the effort at the state prison to secure a more humane method for the hanging of capital criminals and in entire keeping with the spirit of sincerity which seems to permeate the action of the Connecticut Humane so- ciety in the performance of it's duties through MT. Thrall and MT. Miller. six devices for the humane destruction of animals have been ordered from Appa- riel r. Bruneau of France. If the de- vice is practical and fulflls the expecta- tion of MT. Thrall an effort will be made to induce the butchers of the state to employ it in slaughtering beef as destruction of life by means of it is instantaneous and painless and is exc cuted without the loss of blood. This latter advantage reassures the nour. ishing qualities of the meat.
 
 The device is a simple one. The mask can be properly adjusted on the head of any animal in . few seconds The projecting spike Is driven at q sin. gle blow into the brain. The severity of the death blow is certain and the animal with eyes blinded is not apt to suddenly jerk its head to avoid blow as is now sometimes the case when the death blow is struck with the fiat end of an axe.
 In the destruction of the life of dis eased or worthless horses a misdirectet shot often results in pain to the horse consequent fright and difficulty ir shooting in the right spot the second time while the animal is uneasy.
 The Connecticut Humane society ha. taken the initiative step in the intro duction of this device in this country as there is now none in use here as fal as is known. The matter was brought to the attention of the society in per sonal letter to MT. Miller written b, Madame De Silva of Paris and an Of flcer in the Paris Society for the Protec tion of Animals The device costs bu six dollars delivered In New York city
