Third Annual Commencement
Graduating Exercises of the Train
Ing School of Nursing.

Graduating Exercises of the Train
Ing School of Nursing.
The commencement exercises Of the
Alma Training School for nurses were
held III the Sun Parlor of the Sanitarium
last Friday evening While the Alma
Orchestra played march the class
entered followed by the seniors and
juniors. The young ladies of the class
each carried large bunch of roses and
looked very pretty in their nurses attire.
After the invocation by Rev. jefferson,
Chester Walker read an instructive essay
on Hydro therapeutics, explaining what
it had been rescued from the grasp
of quackery and elevated TO the ranks
of IA true medical science Miss Mary
McKinlay then gave the class history
After some Introductory sentences, she
proceeded TO pay compliments TO the
medical staff more than to give real
history of the class. The first time they
met DR.. Pettyjohn after tn cir arrival at
The Alma, they took him to be a clergy
man. Their memory of the first meet
ing with DIR. Lancashire was also very
pleasant owing to his thoughtfulness
for their comfort. In similar manner
she paid compliments to DR.. Slaymaker,
who was here when the class first came
two years ago, and to Drs. Dudley and
Eckard, the present assisting physicians
and also to Miss Emily Case, the matron
After another selection by the Orchestra
some practical demonstrations were
skillfully presented in the following
order:
Application Tournipuet go. Chester Walker
Blanket Splint t.............. ....... Miss Bowen
skull Cap .......... ......... o.. Miss McAllister
Changing heets without Disturbing Patient
.... ....... .... ................ Miss kenney
The entire class, composed of Misses
Bowen, Kenney, McAllister, McKinlay
and Chester Walker, acquitted them
selves nobly. Then followed the address
to the class by DR.. Pettyjohn which is
given in another column and needs no
words of praise from the reporter as its
excellence speaks for itself DR..
Lancashire with few we'll chosen words
then presented the class with their
diplomas and badges. These badges
are circular in form, thus representing
completeness, having Il Greek Cross in
red enamel and the words. Alma
Sanitarium, 81 in white enamel on
solid gold background This makes a
very tasty badge and at the same time
represents the class colors, red white
and gold. But in some ways perhaps,
the most delightful part of the program
was the Table d hote dinner served in
seven courses at the close of the exercises
The tables were arranged in form Of the
letter ct" and bore potted plants at
intervals in the center, intertwined with
spiral rows OF evergreen and carnations
besides, large rose graced each of the
thirty six plates, making the entire table
present gorgeous appearance. 1t is
needless to say that the dinner was un-
surpassed in quality and quantity.
Among the guests who were present from
the town were Revs. jefferson, Clough,
Bruske, Carroll, Butler Mr.. and Mrs.
Sharp, DR.. and Mrs. Pringle, Misses
Butler, Lancashire and Rogers.

Bad Story-Tel

If Oscar Wilde's assumption were to
lie taken seriously that all fiction is lying,
it might account for much that atflicts
readers, since the lack of morals affects
the intellect, and what is done without
conscience is apt to be done badly. OF
course all fiction is not lying, as all
killing is not murder but it is sad fact
that many writers Of novels and short
stories seem to have left their consciences
and much of their brains behind when
they go forth 60 work-as if these be-
longings might safely remain in secluSiOu
with the dress coat and the white tie, to
be brought out only for special occasions.
Artemus Ward once remarked that he
had giant mind, but did not have it
with him and that COR the latter half of
it, is apt TO be the case with any of u
when we are careless. True, even good
Homer sometimes nodded; but this
affords no example for Us who are not
HOmers. To come to our tasks other
wise than with all our wits about Us,
aud invite public attention to the chance
"oozings of our brains " is as if one
should issue from his apartments unshorn
and half clad or enter upon the busy
haunts of men without money in his

SQUIRE HART'S VIEWS.
Some Opinions and Advice From a
Competent Authority.

Like every city aud town in our Re-
public, Marietta furnishes its share of
veterans who fought for Old Glory
during the late unpleasantness, and
who despite their valor when facing a
foe on the field, found themselves wag-
ing war on u concealed enemy ever
since, and perfect powerless and un-
able to dislodge it from its position.
How to effect a dislodgement is clear
ly given in the statement that follows,
made by Squire NJ. II. Hart, whose Of
fee we need scarcely remind our read
ers is just opposite the depot. Our
citizens have now the unayoida BILE
question to answer, whose opinion can
l depend upon the more, representa-
tive resident of Marietta or some news
paper statement made by some one liv-
ing hundreds of miles away, who say
remedy so-and.so cured him? Read
this and then quietly and cody an
swer the question mentally. The
Squire says:-"Since l was in the army,
n member of Reg, las, Co. X Ohio, |
never had the health ! had before |
enlisted. My kidneys were affected
and at times / have been everything
but well man, some Of the symptoms
showing plainly that my kidneys were
not right; such as dull pains in the

larity at times in the secretions of the
kidneys, aggravated pain when ]

DANGERS or ora1HALMY.
Removal OF the Crystalline Lens Re-
Guircs Great Care.


cuircs Grcrt Care.
While many physicians regard the
operation of removing the crystalline
lens dangerous, because of possibility
of retinal hemorrhage and perhaps
diminution of tension, there are others
who indorse the views of Prof. Herman
Cohn, chief of staff of the Ophthalmic
hospital, Breslau, and Prof. Vincenz
Fukala, of the University of Vienna,
that removal of the crystalline lens is
cure for myopia, or neor-sightedness,
and unaccompanied by danger to the
patient. For centuries this operation
has been resorted to as n cure for cat
aract and now cocaine and antiseptic
surgery render it comparatively safe.
Myopia is caused by diffusion of light,
and where diffusion is greatest vision
is most impaired. In light the pupil of
the eye contracts and expands again in
darkness, When the pupil is enlarged
the diffusion of light is enlarged. With
age the pupil becomes smaller, hence
the vision of near-sighted people inn
proves as they grow older.
1t is claimed that when the crystal
line lens is removed the cornea will
concentrate the rays of light. Prof.
Fuliala first dared to step from theory
to practice and perform the operation.
After administering cocaine the lens
was punctured to produce cataract, or
the hardened condition which renders it
easy of removal. Cases reported by
Prof Fukala show that after the opera
tion patients have been able TO see at
q distance of from 35 to co centimetcrs.

THE DEATHWATCH.
The Mysterious sound That Is the
DugDear of Childhood.

In 1863 | had two chums, of the name
of Seth, and Cicero Dodge, who lived
down in the forks of Coon, about four
miles below us, says letter in Forest
and Stream. The boys were hauling
wood TO town. and they told me that the
woods down in the forks were alive with
squirrels, and that if l would go back
with them that evening they would get
their father to let them have the next
dav off. and we would have lots of fun.
l went home and got my No. il muzLle
loader, plenty of ammunition and my
dog, and went home with them. Father
Dodge had. built new frame house,
but it was not large enough 10 accom-
modate the family and any strangers,
so Cicero and slept out in the old log
house. l shall never forget the scare
we got that night. AS boys will, we lay
there a long time discussing the various
propositions that suggest themselves
TO two boy chums who haven't seen
each other for some time. Along
toward midnight we thought we dis
covered the presence of somebody un-
der our bed. To make it more certain,
we distinctly heard the ticking of his
watch. We became uneasy, for the
ticking of that watch was regular and
incessant. At last Cicero quietly slipped
out of bed, went over to the new house
and called his father, who came and in
vestigated. Much to our chagrin the
old gentleman soon discovered that the
cause of our dread and forebodings was
only deathwatch at work in an old log
by the side of the bed.
