Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1902-12-20

Put pint and half of rich milk
into a double boiler over the fire with
the third of a vanilla bean split and
cut in small pieces, let it come to a
boil, and stir in two ounces Of fine,
sweet chocolate grated and a lump of
butter the size of walnut. Let it boil
for few moments, remove from the
fire and beat very light four eggs.
strain the chocolate gradually over
them. stirring all the time, add a little
salt, and sugar if necessary. Rinse
a plain mold in cold water, pour the
custard into it, set the mold into pan
of hot water and bake twenty-five min
utes. Test with a knife. Too long
cooking makes the custard watery. 1t
must be served ice cold and may be
prepared the day before. Serve with
cream or soft boiled custard.

To Seed Raisins.

1t is cheaper to buy new, plump raj
sins, at higher price, than old can
died ones, as there is less waste. Have
a bowl Of tepid water on your right
hand, damp, coarse cloth spread on
the table before you, the raisins on
your left hand, and the bowl to receive
them, when seeded, in front. The bowl
of water is only to dip your fingers in
occasionally; if the latter are too sticky
after the seeds are removed, they will
cling to your hand and go into the
bowl with the seeded raisin. Squeeze
the raisins between thumb and finger,
and remove the stones you find with a
small knife. Some prefer to split
them; do which you find quickest. Put
the stones on the damp cloth as you
remove them, and shake it before there
are too many, or they will also cling to
your fingers, and pass to the bowl with
the seeded fruit
Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1902-12-20

Investors ought to be satisfied with
a low rate of interest in agricultural
investment on account of it's relative
safety. AS yet it is little soon in our
history to expect that the new agricul-
ture of the future shall have any spe-
cial attractions for capital. But the
time will come when all Of our old
depleted lands will be regenerated and
revived, through the era of invested
capital. There is very little chance for
any regenerative work in agriculture
without such investment. The poor
man must either keep to the skimming
policy, or work for others until he
has put by enough to be capitalist
himself in a small way at least. l
have always been averse to recon-
mending any man to go in debt for
anything Yet most of the successes
of this world are made by those who
venture in this respect. A never for
gotten remark I once heard by nice
old capitalist was to the effect that he
always loaned money to the man who
wanted to buy manure with it.

me, knew that the wrench was not
going to fall back. Where had it
landed? Had it risen into the air
and been seen by some eager eye? Or
was it only lying out Of sight beneath
rubbish that had stopped it's upward
course?
When | could get my head once
more above water and had my feet.

pail, my blurred eyes strained toward
the incoming stream l knew it was
still falling, and that the water was at
my chin. But it might bet might
be smaller. And-was | right? Did
not my water dimmed eyes mock me?
The flow was certainly less! 1t was
growing still less every secondi And

minutes, and found myself lying in
bed between hot wooden blankets, and
my chums and M. CASTOR were rub

time before that afternoon. I begged
them to treat me with less violence.
The next day proved that their treat
ment had been good for me. | felt no
i'll effects whatever from my expert
ence, and insisted on going ahead with
our trip. The Gastons objected strong
ly, and would have been glad to have
us spend our whole vacation at their
farm but we did not wish to give up
our excursion to the falls and our
time was limited. So, after dinner,
we babe them good by, and rode off
toward Grimsby.
The burned barn, as I examined the
ruins that morning, plainly told me
the story of how so much water hap
pened to be poured in upon me- The
south end of the building was still
standing, and the partly burned roof
sloped thence toward the middle of the
barn, where the cistern was. When
the ridgepole fell, the lower end of it,
! charred and splintered, had come to
rest just over my prison. Although
the trough thus formed was full of
holes and choked with rubbish it was
still sound enough to force much of
the water thrown on the ruins to work
it's way into the cistern
No one had noticed what became of
the water; on one had thought of my
being in that hole. The still smoking
remnants of the barn were full of
eager searchers for my body when
Carter had seen my bicycle wrench
shoot up from a small opening in the
litter and fall back out of sight in the
wet ashes.-Youth's Companion.

WHY HAVE A STOMACH?
If the Lictum of Doctors Be Accepted,
We Need None.

A writer in the Lancet informs the
trectomy is on it's trial" He then
quotes the opinions of others on this
question thus:
although the entire stomach has
been removed for cancer with temper
airy success, we cannot think that the
number of cases in which this can be
done will be large; nor do we look
upon the operation as at all favor
able one. They do not even describe
the operation, as if the growth be
sufficiently large to warrant such a
severe procedure, it is practically be-
yond hope of immunity from recur-
renee"
1t is evident that the Lancet's ex-
pert has no patience with surgeons
who would permit people to retain
their stomachs when opportunities for
removing them have been offered.
Here is his declaration:
ct seems to me that in all cases
of gastric carcinoma where operation
is advisable at all gastrectomy is in
dicated, as it having been proved that
the stomach is not essential for diges-
ton, the more complete it's removal
the greater should be the probable i'm
munity from recurrence, while the FISK
is not proportionally increased. If at
all possible it is, however, wise, for
physiological reasons as we'll as for
ease in operation, to leave small
portion of healthy stomach.
The gentleman should be thanked
for his concession as to the small por-
ton of healthy stomach, but why
leave any of the stomach if it is not
essential for digestion? Why carry a
stomach for even a portion of one
around lust as a matter of form? De-
scribing an interesting operation per-
formed by himself the Lancet's cor
respondent very Interestingly says:
GAS compared with pylortctomy the
operation as performed in this case
was easier and took less time, be-
cause there was less stomach surface
to suture. The cut edges were easily
and rapidly brought together with con
tinuous silk sutures Through all the
coats). and then the duouenum was
implanted into the very small surface
of the fundus that was left. Had there
been difficulty in approximation |
would have closed the duouenum and
attached the jejunum.
This plain and unequlvocal state
ment should inspire the public with
new confidence in surgery. When 1t
becomes possible in case OF difficulty
of approximation to close the duode,
MN and attach the jejunum who can
reasonably continue to sit back In
doubt? Down with the stomach
