Of young man aged 20 years, who for
six months had been suffering with his
stomach. In spite Of varied treatment
he was gradually growing worse and
looked like one in the last stages of
phthisis. He suffered from constipa-
tion and insomnia; he was very nervous
and was convinced that he was about
to die. After instituting the abdominal
massage his condition rapidly improv-
ed; his abdomen, which had resembled
that Of child with meningitis, be-
came supple and daily enlarged. The
treatment was not severe nor very spe-
cial. His pain disappeared, and he was
able to digest all that was given to him.
The patient gained in six months about
sixty-five pounds, which he has not lost
since that time. now FIVE years ago.

The sEv Road ~. the Geese


]. G. Millais, the artist, in his book,
"The Wildfowler in Scotland" thus de-
scribes the scene Of the arrival of the
wild geese from the Arctic regions,
which he twice had the good fortune to
witness:
heard the first '.honk' of the season
coming from far up. in the vast ex-
panse of the blue heaven. For long
time nothing could see, until at last
tiny speck appeared in the sky as
far as the eye could reach, and watch
ing it intently, I saw it grow into the
form of goose that was slowly de-
scending in great spirals.
This bird was followed at regular in
tervals by others, in little parties of
from six to ten.
The leader came down Immediately
above the Inch, and while she was pre-
pairing to alight, there were still small
companies evolving themselves from
the blue expanse, until at last there
must have been some fifteen hundred
birds actually on the wing. all in pro.
cess of descent. and all following one
another at regular intervals.
By and by. when the leading geese
had settled, the parties at the real
seemed to straggle more, and longer in.
tervals occurred between them; yet
they kept coming in all day as l roamed
round and about the lake, till by even
ing, when disturbed the company
there must have been between two and
three thousand geese sitting on the
island.

One Consoling Thought.

Illustrating the value of caution in
expression, the Hon. John NJ. Allen, of
Mississippi, tells a story of a funeral
Grafton. which he heard delivered by a
negro preacher in the South.
The habits of the deceased brother
had not been irreproachable. and one of
his items Of waywardness was constant
attendance at gay parties. where he
whistled, danced, and otherwise dis
ported to the great scandal of the
worthy pastor Of the flock. So, in sum
ming up the case at the funeral. the
preacher delivered himself in this wise:
Ny brethren and sisters, we are here
to pay our last sad respects to our de.
parted brother. Some says he was a
good man, and some says he was a bad
man. Where he has gone to we can't
tell, but In our grief we has one consola-
tion, and that is-he's dead"
