The Aberdeen Democrat. (Aberdeen, South Dakota) 1???-1909, 1903-04-24

yHTHEN Helen Stockwell had re-
wv fused to iearry Winfield Bar
ton without his fathers consent, the
young mar had said: why, Helen,
you don't know my father. He al
ways refuses everything at first. It's
his way. Ii isn't because it's you. II
we were onc married, he wouldn't
care anything more about it,
To which she replied: 1T seems to
me, Win, that if yon approached him
rightly, and told him that we didn't
wish to marry without his consent
and blessing, and that we would pa
tientIy wait, it would not be long.
before he would yield. 1t seems dread
full to marry with father or mother
against us. The memory Of it would
last forever. 1t never could be made
right.
He had angrily replied, in his
wounded vanity, that he guessed she
didn't care much about him, or She
would proudly marry him if all the
world objected. And when he found
her still u%nyielding. had left her and
never gone back, getting consolation,
i due time, from the conpanionship
OF pretty Retta Lowe, whom he mar
ried. His father had objecteds but
when it was oyer, forgave him, as
Win had said ae would, Helen often
met Win and his pretty, stylishIy-
dressed wife, riding in their fine
team.

betes, Dropsy, Bright's disease. Take
Doan's Kidney Pills in time and the
cure is simple.
j. f. Wainwright, of the firm Of
Bones & Wainwright, painters and
contractors, Pulaski, Va, says: -Four
Or five times a year for the
past few years I have suffered
with severe attacks of pain in my
back, caused from kidney trouble.
During these spells I was in such
misery from the constant pain and
aching that it was almost impossible
for me to stoop or straighten, and it
really seemed as if the whole small
of my back had given away. At
times I also had difficulty with the
kidney secretions which were dis
colored, irregular and scalding, and I
was also greatly distressed with
headaches and dizziness. I used
a number of recommended RENE
dies but I never found anything SO
successful as Doan's Kidney Pills.
When I heard of item I had an at
tack and procured a box of them. In
a few days the pain and lameness dis
appeared, the trouble with the kid
ney %secretions was corrected and my
system was improved generally. I
have every confidence in Doan's Kid
ney Pills"

Brussels where he will join his family. NJ.
Giron has broken off all relations with the
princess in order not to impede the reunion of
the princess with her children.
The sudden end to the royal romance is said
to be due to the refusal Of the Saxon court in

4STIGM4TISW CURED.
Operation on Muscle Remoues De-
feet of TiaOn.

A surgical operation the eye. with the
effect of curing astgmatism, is described by
DR.. George J. Bull in a special article in The
New-York Medical Journal" published to-day.
Astigmatfsm or 'astigmia, DIR. Bull calls
it. is a defect of vision, caused by irregularltY
in the shape of the eye usually in the cornea or
crystalline lens. 1t produces a disability to see
distinctly lines in a certain direction, While
lines in a different direction can be clearly seen
In the case treated by DR.. Bull the patient
looking at the radiating lines on distant
clock dial could see only the horizontal lines.
In some cases operations on the muscles Of
the eye produce this defect though doctors
in this city say that this is rare Dr. Bull pa
tient besides astigmatism due to irregularity of
the cornea, was troubled with inequality of the
muscles and after he had performed opera
tion. weakening one of the muscles of the eye.
he found that the irregularity of the cornea had
disappeared and that the astgmatism had
tirely disappeared so that the patient was able
TO see all the lines in the clock face. DR.. Bull
describes the effect of the cure: She put her
hands up TO her face to see if she had her
glasses ana. finding they were not there, could
hardly believe her eyes"
DR. Bull says that the operation has given
great satisfaction and seems to have had
cellent effect, but that he is of the opinion that
such operation for the cure of astigmatism
It is possible, however says the doctor, that the
case may be of value in other diseases of the
eye due tension which may be cured by oper-
ating the muscles.
DR. Arthur Mathewson the oculist of No. 139
Montague-str Brooklyn, said last evening that
the case was OF exceptional interest. but that he
did not believe that it could mean that the cure
OF astfgmatiSm by operation would become gen.
eral
Gases where changes in the shape of the
cornea have followed operations on the muscles
of the eye are exceedingly rare continued DR.
Mathewson. and so an operation TO cure astig-
matism must be This reported of Dr.
Bulls seems to rather interesting
ceptional case than pointing the way to any new
method of treating astigmatism."
A we'll known ocust said last night that the
operation referred to was not new, and had
been tried i'm this country. He said the idea
that astigmatism had been cured result of
the operation was absurd. There nothing
in this particular case that held ont a promise
for general cure. There known
edy for astigmatiSm except that the eye itself
naturally changed
In the of this woman mentioned by DR.
Bull it was said by the oculist that the opera
ton did have anything to do with the
change in the curvature of the cornea, and that
the mistaken conclusion reached was due per-

have acquired fame in the same way by
having their names tackled to cigars and

others don't.
