Healed Wound of Heart.
From the Medical Record.


At the London Clinical Society Mr.. W. g.
Spencer recently showed a specimen Of
healed wound of the heart. The patient had
been stabbed in four places. and was ad-
mitted pulseless ard unconscious. Infusion
of saline fluid, etc. was employed, and he
went en- well for a week Then hemorrhage
occurred, and Mr.. Spencer passed his finger
through the wound in the second left inter-
costal space, and touched a. large vessel
with low tension and whirring current
with each systole. The wound was firmly
plugged. The plugging had to be renewed
again and agnin, on account of fresh bleed
ing and the plug becoming extruded. By
the twenty-seventh day the plug was all
pushed out and only a superficial wound
remained This healed in six weeks from
the accident. and nothing abnormal was
heard in the chest. except q faint mur-
mur as in anaemia. The patient continued
trial. and eventually sank exhausted sew
enty-nine days after the Injury. At the
pcst-mortem, the scar In the left intercosta al
space was seen to correspond with another

on the surface OF the right ventricle. Then
opposite to this, on the endocardium was q
fine blush line. This was thought to be the
scar of a firmly healed perforation of the
yentricle. and was just below the pulmon-
vessel being wounded, and no clot inside or
outside the heart or great vessels. The
only question raised was whether the wea-
pom had actually penetrated the endocardl-
I'm (the scar on which wss very fine) and
the hemorrhage came from branch OF the
coronary. The question of suturing was
mentioned. but Mr.. Spencer said II was DIFF
ficult to fix the direction Of the wound.

A Thought-Wefghing Machine.
From the Medical Record.

The cerebrum is the organ Of the will and
1t Is known that in the exercise of its func-
tion there is an Increased supply of blood
to that part. Professor Mosso, an Italian
physiologist, has invented a thought-weigh-
ing machine, consisting OF delicate balances
so contrived that they weigh the varying
amount of blood in the brain. The activity
OF the brain is in direct proportion TO the
amount of blood therein. According TO a
local newspaper report, the machine Is so
delicately constructed that IL readily de-
tects the difference i'm the exertion required
TO read Greek above that necessary to read
Latin. Every youngster is ready to believe
in the machine.

BY reason OF their superior capacity and
force the whites Of Hawaii have become
the real people of Hawaii. The master and
officers of a ship are necessarily the men
who can navigate and handle the ship. A
crew of mutineers have no choice but to
put such men in Office with supreme au-
thority. In Hawaii the whites are the only
class of men who possess the necessary ca
pacity to transact the affairs of business
and government administration which daiiv
arise out of the new and large commercial
life of this North Pacific where Hawaii is
the central crossing point. New compIica-
tions are constantly occurring, with which
the weak Polynesian can deal no more than

convolutions too little ramified. for action
In difficult affairs. He has to leave it to his

Dreadful
Malaria.

There are numerous diseases having
their origin in the blood, but which on
the surface do not appear to be blood
disease. Such is Malaria, which is
poison breathed into the lungs, and thus
taken into the blood and circulated, inn
buing the entire system with its morbid
effects. Those who have suffered from
this dreaded disease know what a life
less condition ensues and how the vitality
is wasted away so that death is often
caused by some simple malady, because
of the low ebb to which life is reduced
by this poverty of blood. This condi-
tfon of the blood often gives rise to
boils, carbunc1es, abscesses and ulcers,
and not infrequent1y causes catarrh,
bronchitis, and even consumption.

n1lME BRINGS ROSES"

When from my mountain top of years gaze
Backward upon the scenes that have passed.
How pleasant is the yiewi And yet how vast
Tho deserts where thirsted many daysi
There, where now hangs that blue and SHIN
mering haze,
And there and there my lot with pain was
cast.
Hopeless and dark, but always at the last
Deliverance came from unexpected ways
And now all past grief is as but q dream.
Yet even now there loom before my path
Shadows whose gloomy portent checks my

But shadows are not always what they seem.
Gods love sometimes appears to be his wrath.
And his best gift is the white rose OF death.
