-Drs. Jackson, of Madison, and Nc
Manus performed a very neat surgical
operation for Letta Lintvedt, daugh-
ter of Holyor Lintvedt, on Monday.
Miss Lintvedt has been suffering with a
bone abscess on the lower limb just
above the ankle and for several months
has been compelled to move about with
the aid of crutches. A portion of the
bone was removed from the limb and
the diseased parts all scraped out leav-
ing nothing but healthy matter, which
now bids fair to heal in first-class shape.
Miss Lintvedt stood the operation re-
markably we'll, and there is now little
doubt but what she will soon be as well
as ever.
The man who goes about town these
moist and rainy days with his inside
pocket filed with street sprinkling con-
tracts is cheerful to the uttermost point
and beyond the limits of description.
He is reaping harvest without WELD
ing the sickle, SO to speak. In the YER
naculer of the print shop, he is getting a
full column pickup. But there'll come
a time before the fall of snow when his
ponderous cart will have to go rumbling,
squirting and fixing up and down the
street ten hours of the day, six days in
the week. The rains of today turn the
dust to mud but for a short time, and
the fall winds will raise clouds of earth's
minutest particles and blow them
whittier it listeth. IT'S then that the
man who sprinkles will more than make
good for the holidays which the rain has
brought unto him. 8
