THE CHURCH MILITANT

The converse ton drifted somehow or other to fighting clergymen. That re- minds me-" said a Georgian in the group 'of a story that is told on Dr. McKane. The doctor was a famous ante-bellum character, who lived be- tween Washington and Augusta-a dis trict, by the way which produced an extraordinary number of men of abili- ty. He was a physician of the good old school, and being also a man of strong religious views, he was in the habit of occasionally preaching in the rural churches. Physically McKane was a giant, and if he failed to convert sin ner by word of mouth he was not averse to finishing the argument with his fists, so, needless to say, his prose- lyting was singularly successful.
 'One Sunday, as the story goes he drove to a neighboring village for the purpose of holding services, and was met as he descended from his buggy by the local blacksmith, who was the bully of the community. The blacksmith had heard of the doctors prowess. and H- garded his presence as menace to his own prestige, decided not to let him preach. Well, stranger, who be y any how? he asked as a starter, planting himself in the visitors path.
 My name is McKane,' replied the doctor, and I've come to hold a meet ing in the church yonder
 My name is Bill Williams said the blacksmith, and I'm here to tell y that y can't hold no meetin' in this town to- day
 "'That's something we'd best settle immediately said McKane, with per feet coolness, and he proceeded to take off his

 The boys of the Charter House school, where Baden Powell was educated, were aroused from sleep by the news and the school soon became a Verttable pandemonium of noise and enthusiasm.
 The lord mayor A. J. Newton, sent the following dispatch to Colonel Baden Powell: ''The citizens of London are relieved. They rejoice in the good news received. Your gallant defence will long live in British annals. Cable me what money is wantde for the needs of the garrison and inhabitants after long priVations."

Blood TRANSMISSION.
TRANSMISSION of blood is a procedure
that must have been employed by
physicians in very early times. Ovid
tells of Medea bringing back youth to
the aged by the injection into their
veins of the blood of young men, and
doubtless the same means was en-
ployed by physicians for less fantastic
Objects. The injection of the blood Of
one person into the veins of another
was until recently done to save life
after severe hemorrhage and in vari-
GUS forms of blood poisoning Some
times a direct communication was
made between the veins of the donor
and of the recipient by means of a
tube; at other times the healthy sub
ject was bled into a bowl, and the
blood was beaten to remove the fibrin
before it was passed into the blood
vessels of the patient. The procedure
is a dangerous one however, although
many lives have been saved by it, and
it has now been almost entirely aban-
doned, much safer plan being used.
1t is found that the blood when def
brinated is no longer living fluid.
and the corpuscles 1t contains serve no
useful purpose when injected, but
rather act as foreign matter which
must be got rid of. Accordingly physi.
clans now use distilled water, in which
