SUNDAY AFTERNOONS.

From the window OF the chapel softly
sounds an organs note,
Inrough the wintry Sabbath cleaning
oIuting shreds of music float
AND the quiet and the firelight and the
sweetly solemn tunes
t'ear me dreaming back to boyhood and
Its Sunday afternoons:
When We gathered in the parlor, in the
parlor sfin and grand
Where the haircloth chairs and sofas stood
arrayed. a gloomy band,
Mhere each queer oil portrait watched us
with countenance OF wood.
And the shells upon the whatnot in a dust
less fplendor stood. ~s ~
Then the quaint old parlor organ. with the
quaver in its tongue.
Seemed to tremble in its fervor as the
sacred songs were sung.
AZ we sang the homely anthems, sang the
glad revival hymns
OF the glory of the story and the light no
sorrow dims.
While the dusk grew ever deeper and the
evening settled down,
And the lamp-lit windows twinkled In the
drowsy little town.
Old and young we sang the chorus and the
echoes told IL Ger
In the dear familiar voices, hushed or
scattered evermore.
From the windows Of the chapel faint and
low the music dies.
And the picture in the freight fades before
my tear-dimmed. eyes.
But my wistful fancy. listening. hears the
night wind hum the tunes
That We sang there in the parlor on those
Sunday afternoons.

SURGERY ON WHALE SHIPS.


Some remarkable surgery has been
performed by captains of the whaling
ships in the Arctic ocean. Accidents
sometimes happen on board the whal-
ers. and as there is rarely medical
man in the feet the captain is obliged
to treat the injured men, says the New
York Sun.
Guided only By common sense. some
Of these captains have managed to per-
form even amputations with success.
When Surgeon Call, Of the revenue cut
ter Bear, was in Alaska recently he
was much impressed with the work OF
this character that had been done by
Capt. George b. Leavitt. of the whaler
Newport. He asked him for an account
of his experience. Capt. Leavitt's re-
ply, which has been published by the
revenue cutter service, is in part rs
follows:
1.-THE first Of the. amputations since
the ships began wintering on Her
schel's island was on a man belonging
to the Mary d. Hume. Half his right
foot was taken of. the instruments
used being . butcher knife and hack
saw. It was the first attempt of the
kind up there. and putting the patient
under chloroform. which was out of
our line. was slow process.
1--WE placed the bottle under his nose.
and after he had taken Whit we would
ask him if he we're sleepy. This was
kept up for half an hour without any
effect. We then made a paper cone.
put in some waste saturated with chic
roform, and the man went right on.
1t was a square cut across the foot. 1t
turned out we'll, but the big toe, or
the bone the big toe grows on, was .
long time healing.
my next big contract was taking OF
the right arm of Mr.. West, the third
officer of the Navarch. The arm was
amputated a few inches below the
shoulder, cleaning on all the burnt
flesh. In putting ligature on the
large artery, gut was used. The small
veins were touched with caustic. Later
I had to make . second operation, thi.
time laying open the entire shoulder
and taking out the bone to within AZ
inch Of the joint.
'Iodoform was the only antiseptis
that l had in all my surgery. Afte
such operations as these used cocain.
or morphine Whichever ! happened I,
have on handy to deaden the pain. Al
the subjects we have worked ON hav,
turned out well. / have not studiet
medicine nor had seen anything Of th,
kind done until was compelled to dol
while at Herschel island"
