Tight Lacing and Gallstones.-Prof
Marchard, says Modern Medicine,
calls attention to the fact that gall
stones and tight-lacing are frequent
coincidents. The furrow caused by
lacing runs directly across the right
lobe of the liver, cruising a tendency tN
atrophy of the gall-bladder. When
tight-lacing has been extreme, an arti-
ticlal fissure is formed In the liver.
giving rise to what is termed the "lac-
ing-lobe." which carries with it the
gall-bladder. Stagnation of the bile
is we'll known to he one of the most
uportant CAUSES of the formation OF
gallstones. A change in the compos-
tion of the bile, from catarrh resulting
from congestion Of the mucous mem-
brane and the thickening Of the bile
due to failure of the gall b adder tN
completely evacuate itself, gives rise Ia
the formation of small masses which
serve rs nuclei for calculi ; hence any
thing which obstructs the free outflow
of bile through the cystic duct must
favor the formation of 6 Ill l'tJnes.
Marchard is also of the opinion that
many cases of cancer of the liver
should be attributed to tight-lacing.
It is only O few years since q. German
surgeon was obliged to. open an abdo-
men to remove "lacing lobe" of the
liver which had been so completely Sc
parated from the rest of the organ as
to cause its death, rendering It's remov-
al necessary.

"Watch Might"

Not great many years ago "watch-
night" was more widely and solemnly
observed in the churches than it is at
present. 1t was good custom, for, al
though no visible or audible manifesto
ton accompanies the departure of an
old year, the time is peculiarly aus
picious for solemn, soulsearching ser
vices in the house of God, as it also is
for taking stock" (as it were) in the
heart of every man.
A spirit of true unity, of sincere
brotherliness, lives in every Chris
tian's soul Without the indwelling
of such spirit there can be-there is
no genuine Christianity. No doubt
about thar. Then, with such fellow
ship existing, certainly all Christian
people could find mutual benefit in
properly conducted "watch night"
services.
This year, like other years, has had
more or less of sorrow, trial, hardship
and suffering for many. AS children
of God, as members of His family on
earth, We are commanded to comfort
one another, to strengthen the weak.
Obedience to that command is a loving
privilege. Let family freedom and
confidence obtain. Perhaps we, our
selves, need comfort or counsel. Doubt
less we are dissatisfied with much in
own lives during the year now closing.
What better, more appropriate, time
for renewing courage and strength
than at the birth-hour of new, un-
spotted year:
But, whether in the church service
or in the solitude of ones chamber,
the last night of the year is all occa-
sion for serious retrospection, and al
so for calm thought Of the coming
days. At that hour a man naturally
"'easts up accounts of all sorts : he
attempts to strike "balance" and as
certain his position, in the spiritual as
we'll as the material world.
Whatever the result of his mental
calculations, let each and every one
determine that, by the grace of God,
'95 will be better than any year in the
past. Mans wish and will, blessed
with Gods wisdom and strength, can
achieve all things.

"WiIl YOu Laugh TO Me Again, Moth.

.'wiII You Laugh to Me Again, Moth.
er:,
1t was little three-old Mabel who ask.
ed this question one morning in the
early spring. She had been bringing
me the first spring flowers. and oh
how "buful" she thought those bright
yellow dadelions were. 1 had enjoyed
them too, and had responded to her en-
thusiasm with words of appreciation
and thanks; but it was the smile
which seemed to delight the little dar-
ling most. and, as she started out to
hunt for more flowers, she came lack
to ask in her own earnest, winsome
way, "Will you laugh to me again,
mother >"
1t was a simple question, or rather.
request, but it almost startled me, and
started a new train of thought.
Was that dear little heart hungry
for more brightness, and thus seeking
for it as the vine sends forth its tiny
branches in search of the sunshine ?
While careful, and perhaps too often
troubled about household duties, striv-
Jog to have everything as comfortable
rs possible for the dear husband and
little ones, had I been failing to give
them the smiles the sunshine which
their loving hearts craved, and which
could so gladly and easily give them?
When was quite young I remem-
ber being touched by hearing q little
child say, "Mama, they are the laugh.
INCEST folks at Uncle P--'s l ever
saw. l wish we had more laughin' at
our house." All perhaps our little
ones often wish for "more laughin' at
our house," though they do not say so.
Surely we should strive in every way
10 gladden. their young lives, and be
careful that by our care worn, or per.
haps frowning, faces we do not repel
their natural lightheartedness.
Phillips Brooks once said that "thc
truest humor is the bloom of the high.
est life," and, while we should never
encourage silly simpering and giggling,
should not seek to cultivate in ourselves
and our children that "true hu.
NOR" which, like the sunshine. always
carries with it gladness and bloom ?,
