BLOODLEsS SURGERY.

That was u notable exhibition which DR..
Adolf LOrenz Of Vienna, gave in Chicago the
other day in the presence of hundreds Of ply
sicians and surgeons He showed how to ad-
lust n child's thigh bone which had been dis
torted ever since birth. a rot uncommon in
trinity The Austrian specialists method was
new one TO the profession. Hitherto it has
been customary to employ the knife extensively
before resettinC the femUr. DR.. LorenZ so ma

patients had been rendered insensible with
ether as 10 accomplish the desired object with

family. Or. Lorenz repeated it in public for
the purpose of demonstrating to his fellow
craftsmen in Chicago exactly low he had pro
ceeded.
One Of the most striking things about this
performance was the spirit of courtesy which
prompted it. Having accomplished the mission
for which the Vienna specialist had been sum-
moned to this country, he certainly was at lib
erty to return home without divulSing the de
tails Of his system. He had built the latter up
by study experiment and practice. and it was
his stock in trade. To share this with others
was n particularly graceful and Il rather I'M

ton will prove by no means easy, IL will still
remain true that he has done his best 10

teries of his art. Other specialists often give a
certain degree of publicity TO their methods, but
few of them do the same scale
In view of the possibility that the foreigners
departure might be delayed for a few weeks
the Illinois State Board of Health has required
him 10 take ont license. To those who are un-
familiar with medical etiquette such course
may seem trihe unappreciGtive. Such, how
ever, is probably not the case. and it is not

THE dIGGLING GIRL

II you tell her she's modest or tell her she's vain.
She'll giggle.
She heeds not the fact that it gives you a pain.
That giggle.
Though you may address her in serious key.
Make speech that presents no occasion for glee,
Or even for smiling, her answer will be
A giggle.
She runs to the door when her Chawley boy
rings
And giggles.
While helping him take of his cold winter
things
She gigges.
When seated for sparkling within the bright rays
OF dollar per gas or the CRATES cherry blaze
She answers the sugary things that he says
With gggles.
In church II she catches girly chums eye,
She gggles.
There's no provocation, she doesn't know why,
just giggles.
She'll arch up her eyebrows like back Of the cat
That stands of the dog In the rear of the fiat
And gives her eyelashes a humorous bat
And giggles.
II called to the bier of dead, silent friend.
She'd giggle.
II Gabrels trump should bring time to an end.
She'd giggle
II up to the great judgment bar she were led
To list to Ler fate with the quick and the dead
She'd think it was funny and shake her fool head
And gigge.

Day Unto Day.

Robert Louis Stevenson tenderly
and simply addressed the Throne of
Grace each day as he entered upon the
toilsome way of life:-"The day returns
and brings us the petty rounds of irri-
tating concerns and duties. Help US
to play the man; help us to perform
them with laughter and kind faces; let
cheerfulness abound with industry.
Give us to go blithely on our business
all this day, bring us to our resting
beds weary and content and undis-
honored, and grant US in the end the
gift of sleep. Amen"
