The Appendix What it is.

People as a rule know nothing re-
gardlng the appendix. They talk
about appendicitis, but the organ
affected is to them a profound
mystery. Let me endeavor to make
clear the nature of this curious
vestige in human anatomical history.
The digestive system Of man, and
that Of all other animals, is a cnnal
or tube, whereof the stomach is
simply dilated part. Now, beyond
the stomach we find the intestine
(or bowels), which in man averages
twenty-six feet in length. It is d.
vided into the small intestine,
measuring about twenty feet, of the
total length. Where The small in
testine-which is the part that i'm
mediately succeeds the stomach
joins the large we find the caecum-
This, as its name indicates, is cul
de sac, kind of blind alley, lying
telow the point OF junction. At
tached to the caecum we find the
appendix, little tube-like vestige,
averaging about three inches in
length, and of the diameter of
goose quill. If tue caeculn is a
blind alley, the appendix is a
kind Of trap, lying as it does to the
back of the .caecum. When midi
gestible things find their way into
the appendix-cherry stones, grape
seeds and even the hairs of tooth
brushes-they cause irritation, and
when this irritation goes the length
Of Inflammation we get the ailment
known as .'appendictis." The re-
moval Of The appendix IS an opera
ton Of modern surgery, which, UNI
der ordinary conditions, is both safe
and successful.-London Chronicle.

Milwaukee, May 20-Lightning fired
the stables of August Uihlein at Len

o'clock in the morning and burned
them to the ground, cremating 1O2
bloOded horses. The fire was discov-
cred by the four attendants in the
house near by, who were awakened by
the accompanying thunder-clap, but,
as the farm was entirely without fire
fighting facilities, they were utterly
unable to check the fire. The loss is
estimated at 100000.
Among the animals burned was Ger
aldine a pacing mare with record of
2:12; Annie Woodruff, another with a
record of 2:2O, both 3-yearolds. There
were also number Of valuable 2-year-

Washington, D. c. papers con-
tanned interesting accounts recently
in their social columns of an event
not long since in which the host and
hostess were Rep. and Mrs. j. B.
Showalter. We reproduce an extract
as follows: REP. and Mrs. j. B.
Showalter gave most charming
luncheon in honor of Mrs. Philander
c. Knox, wife of the Attorney General
at their Washington home, last Sat-
urdav. The parlors were deliberately
decorated with palms and roses, but
it was in the dining room that the
originators' art exce;led. The in
vitations were for an Easter lunch
con which idea was carried out in the
flowers, salads and ben bons as well
as in the dainty play cards. The lat
ter were hand-painted birds nests
filled with pretty colored eggs. The
color scheme was in yellow and pur-
pie. An arrangement of jonquils
with their own foliage formed the
centerpiece from which radiated
sprays of Southern smilax leading to
purple-tied cheese waters placed at
each plate. The CONNECTIONS attracted
no little attention. A yellow hat and
purple parasol were the form of the
larger pieces, while the smaller were
in the shape of popular Easter flowers.
Cucumbers representing tiny boats,
With miniature flag waving from the
main deck, contained tomato salad.
Another feature new to the Washing
ton table were individual chafing
dishes from which were served lob
sters a la Newburg.
