EDITORS INTELL1GENCER: The words
of this sweet old song very naturally occur
to a musico poetical mind in the Spring
PARK in Williamson, where the long.
golden fingers of the sunshine are tangled
In the flowing tresses OF May foliage and
the wild flowers hide like gypsies, in
their tents Of green.
But this letter is to be a stsrnly practical
one, in which an array of "Gradgrind
facts" tied with red tape and sealed with
an official stamp, are to be %chronicled.
This charming little nook, which is onlya
short ride from Anderson on a fast mail
train, has long been known to possess a
mineral spring whose curative properties
have been tested and proved.

Walking with Broken Legs.

The new method of treating broken
legs, described by the New York Sun,
is of a nature to be of generalinterest.
1t is called the "ambulatory system
it's popularity consisting in the fact
that the patient is allowed, and even
encouraged, to walk freely within a
few days, sometimes within "a hours,
after the leg is broken. The Sun
refers to the subject in connection
with a meeting Of doctors at which a
man whose leg had been broken a
fortnight before was introduced by
one of the surgeons of Roosevelt hos
pital, and proceeded to walk about the
room without crutches, and with only
the slightest p~erceptible limp.
The new treatment, which is said to
have been in use in Berlin for some
time, is applicable only in cases where
the limb is broken below the knee.
Doctor Fiske, the Roosevelt hospital
physician referred to, gave the results
Of $50 operations in which the ambu-
latory splint had been successfully
applied. Wherever the treatment had
been begun promptly, the recovery
had been rapid, except in the case of
alcoholic patients, in which the danger
of delirium tremens setting in after
the fracture was the obstacle. In
healthy persons, male or female, the
method had secured admirable results.
The method itself is described as
follows:
The PATIENTS placed in arecumbent
position, and the injured bones are set
in place and bound securely with an
ordinary muslin roller bandage. No
cotton whatever is used in the binding.
Outside of this roller plaster Of Paris
gauze bandage is wound. This hard
ems, and leaves the limb encased in a
plaster cast which generally extends
from the toe-tip to the knee-ioint. 1t
holds the broken parts Of the limb
~immovable, and hardens rapidly.
The best quality Of cast and bandage
is employed, and the patient is en-
couraged to walk without crutches
after "a hours. Care is taken, Of
course, to avoid all possibility of in
fammation setting in. The reason
the patient can walk Sc soon is that
the weight of the body is supported
upon the upper part Of the ambulatory
cast. which acts as a crutch.
Doctor Fiske cited a case where a
patient Y years old had been able to
walk within eight days after the ap-
plication of the a~mbulatory splint.
The healing of the bones goes on while
the patient is walking about, just as
if he were lying down, as the fractured
limb is in no way disturbed by the
exercise. In fact, the re-uniting of
the fractured parts is fastened, and
the stiffness of joints resulting from
the old method of keeping a patient
in bed and quiet is greatly reduced.
Within six weeks, often sooner, the
bones will have united, and then the
limb is subjected to hot and cold
douche baths and to brisk massage to
restore it to it's normal condition.

walked up the slight incline from the
water the taller of the two, the mys-
terious beauty, at once riveted D'Au-
bont's attention. AS she came near
err, so that the Chevalier could see her
features plainly, his brain reeled with
amazement. There before him stood
the Czaritza, whom he had known in
St. Petersburg. Some of the fresh
ness Of her beauty was indeed lost,
but its indescribable majesty and
charm remained. AS in a dream, daz-
ed and half-flled with something like
a superstitious fear, he hurriedt to her.
''In the name Of God," said he,
show comes your H~ighness here ?"
The woman stopped still and looked
at him. Her face grew pale as a
frightened look of recognition came
into her eyes.
"It seems" she said in a voice like
an echo of despair, "that even here
there is to be no refuge. Chevalier,
I am a most unhappy woman, in your
power, fleeing from cruelty and perse-
cution, that no place in Europe could
protect me were I recognized"
A crowd began to gather around,
curious and inquisitive. D'Aubont at
once led her away, and escorted her to
the best quarters the town could
afford. There, sitting by her side, a
most sympathetic and wondering lis
tener, he heard her strange story.
When she had finished he assured her
that though Europe might afford no
haven of safety from the agent of the
Car, who was SO merciless in hunting
down all who offended him, here in
Mobile he would pledge his life for
her security. He told her it would
never do for her to 60 to the interior
with the emigrants. She would be
subjected to hardships which she
could scarcely hope to survive, and
there was constant dangerfrom hostile
Indians. He persuaded her to stay in
Mobile. A house and garden were
provided for her, and there she enter
ed upon her new life. She taught the
little children of the post she helped
the poor, nursed the sick, and soon all
the people looked upon her as an angel
sent from Heaven.
The Chevalier WASH correspondence
with friends in France, and one day
there cam news that the Czarewitz
Alexis was dead. The beautiful prin-
cess was a widow. The rest of the
story is a fit ending to all proper ro-
nance. She had learned to love
D'Aubont and D'Aubont loved her /;
so they were married. In after years
the Chevalier was sent to command
the newly-erected Fort Toulouse, on
the Coosa River. There his wife came
also, and he built for her a house Of
such comparative magnifcence as to
excite wonder through all the coun-
try. As late as 1850 the brick chin
neys Of this mansion were still stand
ing. There they lived many peaceful,
happy years, and there they died and
we're buried. -Phi2ade!phia Times.
