Along Wheeling Greek Caused by the Haul
ing Away of sand.
Much annoyance and loss is being
caused to property holders on Wheel
ing creek between Elm Grove and
Leatherwood by the hauling away of
sand. The teamsters, not content with
loading near the bed and edges of the
stream, persist in digging out sand from
underneath the fences. and fine old
trees, with the result that with the
next high water they will topple over
and be swept down stream.
The least consideration for the rights
of others would show how grossly I'M
just such acts are, but it seems there
are some people whose consc.ences can
only be put in working order by arrest
and prosecution. If the wanton depie-
dations continue this course will be
followed as a last resort.

Little Minister"
j. NJ. Barrie's dramatization of his
famous novel, THE Little Minister"
will be seen at the Opera House next
Wednesday evening, October 18th. 1t
will be presented by Charles Frohmans
company, one which he has specially
selected to present this successful COM
edy. The characters, as every one
knows who has read the novel, are all
peculiar types, therefore it has been a
hard matter to get people to present
them. Mr.. Frohman has taken special
pains to give the comedy a cast that
will in every way do justice to it. Those
who have seen the Little Minister
say that the dramatization is fully as
good, if not better, than the story. Mr..
Barrie has given us a delightful play
Every one is familiar with the remark
able success the play has achieved. A
play that has been given for 300 per-

served seat sale opens Tuesday morning

How Hopper was Side Tracked" is
the title of julie Walters new play, and
his appearance here again this season
will no doubt be hailed with delight by
his followers. He is always a welcome
visitor here because of his endeavors to
bring what the public taste demands.

verse symptoms come on very suddenly
however, and demand unhesitating sur

DR.. Elliot pointed out that appendicitis
was not due to stray grape stones or
other small objects getting caught in the
tube. By far the greatest number of
cases are traced to the poisoning of the
lymphoid tissue by the escape into the
appendix of the contents of the colon,
the large intestine. Even at that the
chances Of having trouble depend mainly
on the general tone of the system.
The organs of the body in perfect, or
even in fairly good, health are able to
kill off bacteria that may invade Them
the familiar dependence of tonsilitis on

having appendicitis. The prevention Of
the disease thus depends more on get

avoidance of grapes, cherries and the
like, that are popularity credited with ap-
pendicitis danger.

The appendix was described as a short,
wormlike tube from three to six incnes
long, usually the shorter length, and
abundantly supplied with lymphotd tissue
The tonsils in the mouth are the most
familiar examples of lymphoid tissue,
one of the characteristics of which is a

Inflammation of the appendix will burn

there is danger of the tube becoming

c!ometer figures receded a tenth of

He then put it in the kitchen for the
cook to work on during her leisure time.
His wife made objections to this plan,
because it was taking too much of the
cooks time from her work.
He finally arranged with the grocer's
clerk to go to the house and attend to
spinning the wheel evenings after he was
through with his work. In the course
Of two weeks the cook gave notice
that she was to be married to the clerk
and would leave in September. This lost
the doctor some of his wife's respect, but
as the mischief was already done, the
grocery clerk was allowed to call for a
week longer and spin out the mileage
along with his courtship. The wife of
the doctor could not stand it, though,

Of the grocery clerk with the cyclometer

Some useful facts about appendicitis,
what it IS, what causes 1t, and what
to do if you think you have 1t, were given
in an address recently in Boston by DR..
F. NJ. Elliot
DR.. Elliot emphasized the Importance
of sending for the doctor without de-
lay" if there is reason to suspect the
presence of the disease. If 1t should be
found necessary TO use knife to cut
out the diseased verniiform appendix DR..
Elliot said that every minute gained for
the doctor was equally In favor of the
patients recovery.
Most people do not know where the
vermiform appendix is located. If a line
be drawn from the right front point Of
the hip bone. or lilac crest. to the navel,
the appendix is usually under the middle
of the line. With general pain in the

came into contact with the travelling
belt as quickly as the one before it had
ceased to touch the leather In less than
an hour thousand miles had been wiped
out of the record and the machine was
within a mile of the zero point fifteen
minutes later. The doctor did the rest
with his finger. That cyclometer was at
zero point last Sunday and the doctor
then ventured out for his first trip. He
showed the instrument of torture to all
his friends and told them most of the
story. To a few he related the work of
the engineer, and to still more select
few quoted the remark of the engineer:

tween the disease and movements call
ing for sustained bending of the body
forward on the hips. Bicycling, playing
rush on a football eleven, scrubbing a
floor while standing on the feet instead
of being on hands and knees, are the
positions which appear to predispose to
appendicitis. This was thought to be due
to the irritation OF the appendix, which in
those movements is caused to rub to and
fro over the tense edge Of the long tailor
muscle of the leg. 1t had been noted that
the disease was rather prevalent among
people who were for long periods in such
positions, the remark being suggested by
a question as to the benefits to women Of
bicycling.
The wheel was pronounced a great
benefit, indeed, but the "scorcher's" posi-
ton was an invitation to appendicitis.
The moral was, of course, to sit up
straight.
