Gladstone,a Conraga.

that another cataract had begun to form
on the other eye. This last statement was
perhaps new to the prime minister. He re-
hecteu a moment ald said:
Il wish you to remove the cataract at once -
DR.. Granger told him it was not yet far
enough advanced for an operation.
"l on do not understand me" replied his il
IuStriOuS patient: lit is the old cataract

Dr.. Granger hesitated. Mr.. Gladstone, CON

In the end DR.. Granger. saying that the
