standing at the easement, crumbling a
piece OF bread which she put ON the

disappeared.
The detective, who thought he had
reason to fear that she would again
attempt to escape him, pushed
brusquely past Meg, and opened the
side door.

IMPRISONED THE DOCTOR.
Medical Circles of Berlin Shocked
At the kaiser's Course.

Berlin, Aug. 16.-Scientiic cir
cles, especially gentlemen of the
medical profession. have received
quite a severe shock in the kaiser's
refusal to mitigate the punishment
of one of their number whose pas
sion for anatomical research recent
ly Overcame his discretion.
The municipal institution for
epileptics received a girl Is years
old suffering from an advanced
form of the disease. When the girl
died in the institution DR.. Hehold,
the house surgeon, severed the head
from the body and took possession
of it for anatomical purposes. The
girls relatives, caring nothing about
the interests of science, preferred
charges against the surgeon, who,
in spite of his high standing, was
sentenced to three days imprison-
ment.
Thereupon the entire medical and
surgical profession of Berlin rallied
about the distinguished cuIprit.
Such a precedent, they argued,
would strike a blow at the very
heart of medical science. They
carried their appeal to the kaiser,
and now the emperor has proved
his title as pater1smonarch by
taking the side of public sentiment.
DR.. Hebold will have to serve his
and hereafter people may
go to the Berlin hospitals with
greater certainty that they will be
permitted to leave them, perhaps
not alive, but at least with their
bodies and limbs intact.-Atlanta

THE awakening of this country
to the Importance of forest preserv-
alton has been long coming, but
now the work of the agricultural
department in this direction is rap
idly intoxicating a deep interest
among the people in the subject of
forestry, and the result Will doubt
less be ere long to check the devast-
alton of our forests and repair the
losses caused by ignorant and rick
ness methods. Forestry has at last
been made a leading branch of the
work of the agricultural department,
and the study of the subject is
claiming the attention of land owR-
ers everywhere throughout the coun-
try. The reforesting of lands which
have been denuded of trees will not
be done in a day, but it can be
accomplished in time. More in
telligent methods OF cutting timber
are being taught by the forestry
department also, and ere long it
viii come to be regarded as wan
ton and foolish thing to cut away
timber without replanting saplings
IN take It's place. In Europe the
Importance of preserving forests
was long since realized and laws
enacted to prevent their destruction.
For every three cut down, the law
in some European.countr requires
several young trees set out to take
Its place. Hence the forests in
those countries can never be des-
troyed as they have been over such
vast region in America. The |
practice of replanting also gives
land owners the advantage of select
ing trees of the most useful and val
liable kinds, which Will in end
make their forest lands even more
valuable than in the natural state.
America has now learned this les
son, and it is not to be doubted
that she will soon catch up with
the Old World in this particular.
All land owners should pay atten-
ton to the subject, and secure
Literature from the agricultural de
partment dealing with forestry.
Such Literature is distributed free.
