Perhaps because the guest of the
evening VA; Scotchman, or possibly
because one nam in the party had a
Scotch story to tell, the conversation
was brought around to a discussion of
the Scotch lice. cit was while 1 was

physician, "Lliat I witnessed mar

call him Sandy, though that is not his
name. One of his legs had been SO bad
ly mangled in ON accident that we de-
cided to amputate it. The shock was,
a severe one TO Sandy, and when he re-
gained consciousness after the opera
ton it was evident that he had not
vitality enough to recover.
"'Mon, ahm going to deep he asked.
"'We hope for the best, Sandy /
said, but your condition is critical. Is
there any Scotch dish that you would
like?' -.
Sandy said that he didn't want any
thing to eat, but if he could hear the
bagpipe just once more he could die
happy. We didn't have piper ON our
staff, but one of the nurses found one
playing outside o. public house not far
away. When the piper arrived Sandy
was so weak that he could not speak.
He looked grateful. Although it was
not in accordance with our hospital
rules, we hadn't the heart to refuse the
dying request. 1 gave the signal, the
piper began to play. Sandy smiled
peacefully, and at the end Of the second
tune he had gone asleep. His ,temperar
ture and pulse showed a remarkable
Improvement, and because Sandy was O
good fellow, and he might possibly call
for the piper again before he ,breathed
his last, we kept the piper. Two hours
later Sandy. awoke, and the first thing
that he asked for was the pipes. Again
that weird noise filled the hospital, and
once more Sandy went to sleep, stronger
and better than we had expected him
to be. A third time he awol1e, and again
the piper played. When Sandy once
again fell asleep to our a1nazeme1t the
crisis had passed, and he was ON the
road to recovery. He is now alive and

BERLIN, May 20.-A telegram re-
ceived from Constantinople this
afternoon says that the effort of the
Turkish commander i'm Bpirus to
treat with the Greeks for an
armistice resulted in failure, owing
to the Greeks having ignored the
flag Of truce and having attempted
yesterday, with two battalion OF
troops, to make fresh incursion into
Turkish territory. The Greeks, it ie
further stated, also shelled the
Turkish position. In conclusion
the Constantinople dispatch says
the Turkish Government disclaime
