 Cared of Stammerfn 2.

A very important operation V as lats- v reported to the French Academic ds Medicine by Prof. Jonneseo tof Bu- charestl who asserts that he has com. pletely cured a boy of thirteen of 3 confirmed stammer by craniotomy. lis theory is that the cause of the impedt
 ment is often a fattening of the left side of the head. which prevents the proper development of the skull, and consequently a compression of the brain at the very place where Broca thought that he could localize the fac ulty of speech. He therefore cut away such portion of the tissues as appeared 4o cnnfne at that part the dura mater, ana found the experiment completely successful. One wonders whether this, too, was known to neolithic man. Many neolithic skulls have been found from which small circular piece of the bone has been removed, evidently dur ing life. and it has also puzzled an- thropologists to assign a cause for this primitive kind of trephining. But Ii we assume it was done to cure stsm- merins all difficulty would vanish

queer Indian Castonls.

The Mosquito Indians are not ae. quainted with the art of kissing, but they sniff or smell the skin of the cheeks, which answers the same pur- pose The little child is lifted in the fathers arms, he buries his nose in it's stomach. Handshaking is as common as with us. but there is always 8 tinge of melancholy in the character of the Indains, which breaks out where We would expect hilarity Thus, after a long absence, sisters and mothers sit down, and, throwing a cloth over their heads. with taesf hands elasped on the head of the person who has returned, cry over him with their dirge-like song. On the part of the wives, it is supposed to be improper to show any emotion; consequently they take. lit tle potiee of the husband on his return but eonfine their attention to others and do their duties in the meantime.- Bells TangoWera.

that the damage d0ne to wheat,
tobacco and corn by the excessive
ralns IN June aud the first part OF
July has not been as great as was

on the market have had the effect of
reducing the price. aud farmers are
not realizing he values they hoped

The tobacco plant Is small in most
sections, but is looking healthy. The
peanut crop il growing very salts
factorily. Owing to the excessive
rains at planting time, and sub
sequent loul growth of grass, the
corn crop will fall below the average.

EIBLE WITH ROMANTIC HISTORY
1t Was Found on the Plains and Used
on Many Ceremonial OccasionA


on Many Ceremonial OccasionA
The Bible which was used in the
ceremonies beginning the celebration
in this city of the fiftieth anniversary
OF the state>of California has history
that Is very interesting In 1S49 a
young man in coming across the plains
found pile of books by the side of
the road with stick stuck among
them bearing a note telling travellers
to help them ives. The young man
in searching t! ough the old volumes
found handsome Bible, which he con-
sidered a shame to be left upon the
dreary desert. He placed it in his
pack and carried it to Sacramento. He
presented it to DR.. R. H. Mcdonald,
who at that time conducted a drug
store in that city. Some time after the
advent of the Bible into Sacramento a
meeting was called in that city for
the purpose of founding lodge OF
and the lodge was to be known as
Connecticut | age, No. IS. 1t CHANGED
that the meeting place was adjoining
the premises o. .upied by DR.. McDon-
aid. W en- it was convened it was
found that there was no Bible at hand
with which to conduct the ceremonies
and DR.. Mcdonald presented the book
that had been given TO him by the
young man for the lodges use. On
the 10th Of the following April the
grand lodge of Masons was formed and
the Bible again played an important
part in the ceremonies. After the form
alton of the grand lodge the name of
Connecticut lodge was changed to Te-
hama lodge, No. 8, but ever since its
establishment on Jan. 8, 1850, the b.
BILE has remained in the possession of
the lodge. R. o. Craven, prominent
officer of the lodge, has been appointed
to represent the lodge here during the
jubilee exercises and serves as the GUS
todian of the priced old book during
its visit to this city.-San Jose (Cal.)

find a fit subject for his leading article,
having been too intent upon other
business or upon pleasure to provide
one. The last moment had come and
the editor was in despair. He tortured
his brain in vain, when he suddenly
was inspired by happy thought and
dashed off the lines: After carefully
perusing the leading article written for
the present number by one OF the
ablest of our contributors, we have ar
rived at .the conclusion that 1t ~ be

Using the Life Rocket.

On a coast where shoals and reefs
make the use of life boat impraotic-
able, or where the breakers and surf
put an insurmountable barrier between
the distressed crew on wreck and the
brave en- on shore, the life rocket is
resorted to; and, il the ship is within
a certain distance, the swift travelling
line propelled through the air comes
like a messenger of hope and life to
those poor souls who, but moment
before, seemed beyond the reach of hu.
man aid. But, seel Suddenly snow
white serpen, shoots up Al the air. 1t
comes nearer and nearer; the anxious
ly strained eyes can now see the line
which travels with it. 1t has reached
the wreck and has been seized by eager
hands. Quickly it is pulled through a
tail-bleck, and, as they haul on, stout
rope soon follows in its wake. Next
comes a hawser, by means of which
food and restoratives can be passed to
the sufferers. Lastly comes the life
buoy, and one by one the crew is safe
ly landed. Sometimes kind of car Is
sent, in which several people can be
rescued at the same time.
