HIS Stomach Collapsed,

Colonel Benjamin F. Norton, well
known in Chicago politics, who is at
the home OF his daughter in New York,
has rallied from one OF the most re-
markable operations known in sur
gerry. Colonel Norton, when he came
here, began to have intense pains in
his stomach. A structure formed in
the gullet and communication between
his mouth and stomach became i'm
possible. Despite the best medical
skill he was slowly starving to death.
Physicians were called in. An opera
lion was decided upon. 1t was per-
formed July 27. A hole was cut in
his stomach about two inches above
the navel, large enough for hand to
be inserted. 1t was found that the
walls Of the stomach had collapsed,
and lay flat against the spine. DIR.
Weir pinned the forward wall to the
intestines with two gold pins, each
four inches in length. The stomach
was stitched to the intestines on
August l, and tie pins were with
drawn. Then silver tube was in
serted in the wound, piece of rubber
tubing attached to it, and through
this canal food was forced into the
stomach A daily wash of nitrate of
silver cured the ulcers. A sounder,
consisting of a jet bulb on the end OF
a whalebone rod, was inserted once n
week. This operation will have to be
kept up for year or more to keep
the passage from growing together
again. st. Louis Globe Democrat.

HOW I LOVE HER,

How love her none may say
In what sweet and varied way;
Loving her this way and that
For ribbon on her hat;
For her soft cheeks crimson dyes
For trick of her blue eyes!
How love her none may say,
Yet love her all the day!
How love her none may know;
Who can say how roses grow?
How, where'er it breathes and blows,
Still the rough wind loves the rose2
For her lips, so honey-sweet,
For the falling of her feet
Who shall all my love declare?
Yet l love her all the year!
How love her none may say
In the winter, in the May
In all seasons, dark or bright,
Love by day and love by night!
For her glance-her smile-the nero
Presence of her here and therei
In my signing, in my song,
Still l love her all life long!

in the world as spinsters and their
natural dislike to motherhood
would not be visited upon the
children whom they have unwill-
ingly brought into the world.
Dearly Beloved This condi-
ton OF affairs is not half so much
your fault as it is your misfortune,
but it is your business to leave the
world wiser and better than you
found it. This inheritance Of in
justice to childhood came to you
honestly, for you heired it from the
generations preceding you. Will
you perpetuate the injustice, or
will you begin in your generation to
correct it, that the generation i'm
mediately following you may come
into an inheritance of greater wis
dom and clearer justice than you
were born into?
Remember, that in granting
children their full rights you cur
tail none Of your own. You are to
be ever as now the power behind
the throne in the last resort. 1t il
your wisdom that is to determine
finally what shall and shall not be.
1t is your judgment that is to de-
eide in the supreme court Of home,
but by every consideration of jus.
tice, the more unimpeachable your
authority and the more autocratic
your power, the more impartially
and completely should you consid-
er all the rights involved in the
case that you thus determine.
Battle for the rights of the child,
it is the beginning Of the battle for
the rights of the man. Battle for
the rights OF the child, it is the be.
ginning OF the battle against the
wrongs that the strong inf1ict upon
the weak, the world over. Battle
for the rights of the child, and you
enlist a world of men and women
in the fight for human rights the
world over. Battle for the rights
Of the children, and you grow earn,
est in battling for all rights and
thus you hasten the downfall o.
wrong. The children whose rights
are thus preserved will grow to ap
preciate right as earth's best gift
and will hate injustice and wrong
with a natural hatred. Three gen
erations thus taught will revolu
tionize the world and raise human
ity three degrees in the scale of i'm
proved being.
