tors for the relief of disease and de-
cent progress in medicine and surgery
on both sides of the Atlantic.
Gin certain children nature has
failed to provide proper sockets for the
bones of the thigh to work in-that is,
it has failed to make complete hip
joint. These patients are spoken of
as suffering from congenital disloca-
ton of the hip. Sometimes the condi-
ton is not noticed until the child be-
gins to make spontaneous movements.
AS they grow older they prove to be
pitiably deformed and learn to walk
only with great difficulty, their gait
being slow and very awkward. Prof.
Lorenz sets the heads of their thigh
bones in their proper places and then
fixes them firmly in position. The pres
sure of the head of the femur gradual
ly makes for the bone an aceta bulum-
that is, a socket in the bone of the pei
vis-in which it comes to move quite
normally. Further dislocation does not
occur, and the bones remaining in
place perfect the original work of the
surgeon by the exercise of the pres
sure and counterpresuret that eventual
ly gives very practical hip-joint. The
results secured by this manipulation
for it is this rather than an operation
that is the secret of Prof. Lorenz's sue
cesses are excellent. Patients success
fully treated go through life, not as al
most helpless, always pitiable cripples,
but as individuals whose powers of To-
comotion may be somewhat impaired,
though not sufficientlyto hamper their
application to some serious occupa-
ton"

DIR. LORENZ'S VISIT.
It Has Excited Widespread Interest
Among Medical Men.
Originator of So-CalIed B1oOdless
Operation for COngenital Dis1Oca-
ton of Hip Cordially Received
by Our own Surgeons.

That the visit of DR.. Adolf Lorenz,
the eminent Viennese surgeon, to this
country should excite such widespread
interest is an event of much moment
for science, probably of greater mo-
ment than the fact of the visit itself.
Of course the interest was stimulated
at the outset by the fact that Prof

vised by himself, to correct the deform-
ity of the child of one of our million
aires. 1t is also, as the Indepen-
dent remarks editorially, "partly
due to the fact that the presence of the
distinguished foreign surgical visitor
has been taken advantage of to secure
the extensions of the benefits of his
operation to some of the poorer
classes in our large cities who happen
tosbe suffering from the same deform-
ity"-congenital dislocation. of the
hip. There is no doubt, however, the
writer thinks, that the attention awak-
ened can be attributed also to the fact
that deformity appeals to universal
sympathy, and that during the last
generation or two larger humani-
tartan spirit has developed. The writer
goes on to say:
prof. Lorenz does not come to
teach our American orthopedic sur
geons-our specialists in the treat
ment of reformed something
they did not know~before. Lorenz's
operation has been practiced in this
country for almost if not quite dec

The HeaIthIest City.

Health Commissioner Ohage, of st.
Paul, yesterday received from Paris
bronze medal. giving ST. Paul first
place in the hygienic and public
health competition, the findings being
those of the directorate of the Paris
exposition.
The medal is circular disk of
bronze, two inches across it's face,
bearing on one side the coat of arms
of the French republic and on the
other the exposition design and words
"Grand Prix."
The statistics for this competition
were prepared by DR.. Ohage two years
ago and taken from the public rec
ords. They included the population,
mortality, drawings of the sewerage
system, waterworks, pictures of the
public baths and statistical informa-
ton generally pertaining to ST. Paul's
health as community.
Nearly every city and community in
the new and old world was represent
ed in this competition, and the award
ing of the grand prix' to st. Paul
is an honor the health department is
proud of. The award was made on
the health of st. Paul as statistically
recorded two years ago.
Since that time the population has
increased and the death rate is even
lower per thousand.

CHARMING OLD LADY.
Mrs. Matilda Fountleroy, Head Of
an Ancient Family.
She Is Daughter-in-Law of Elizabeth
FountlerOy, Who Refused to-
Marry Washington-Resi des
in Paducah, Ky.

Mrs. Matilda Fountleroy, who re-
sides in Paducah, KY, enjoys the
unique distinction of being the daugh-
ter-in-law of Elizabeth Fountleroy, of
Virginia, with whom George Washing
ton was once in love.
In preference to the illustrious Fa-
Their of his Country Mrs. Fountleroy
married her own cousin, Joseph Foun-
tleroy, in Frederick county, Va. She
had nine children and Mrs. Fountle-
roy, of Paducah, is the widow of one
of her youngest sons, Butler Fountle-
roy, who died many years ago. Mrs.
Fountleroy is 81 years of age, and was
81 years younger than her husband
She is bright, attractive lady, and
takes vivid interest in all things.
The incident of Washington having
paid court to her mother-in-law she
remembers quite well as cherished
tradition in the Fountleroy family.
The incident is mentioned history
of the family. In the history cop
les of letters written by Washington
suing for the fair lady's hand are re-
corded. In one of these the lover
pleads that Elizabeth will alter her
decision and return his love.
Many of these ardent epistles from
Washington to Elizabeth were pub
lished in a newspaper article several
years ago. In some of them the dis
tinguished man descends to inditing
some poetry to his lady love. A novel
of colonial times, alluding to this
love affair, has for one of it's charac-
tiers a sprightly young woman, who
remarks when she saw Washington in
a riding suit, equipped for the chase,
that she does not blame Elizabeth
Fountleroy for refusing to marry
Washington, since he is not half so
good-looking as her father. Judging

from pictures of the great general at
that time, however, the young wom-
an must have been very fastidious.
This was some time after Washing
toms marriage to the Widow GUSTS.
Mrs. Fountleroy never saw her hus-
bands mother, but says she has heard
him speak of her as very beautiful
woman. She had blue eyes and black
hair, an unusual type, which is always
particularly pleasing. She lived all of
her life in Frederick county, Va, when
she was married, and when Washing
ton knew her. Her sons, however,
came west as civilization advanced.
Butler Fountleroy settled in Mont
gomery county, Tenn, ere he met and
married pretty Matilda Bowman, a
daughter of John Bowman, who was
a revolutionary soldier. His bride was
II and he was 3S. "He asked me-
said the wife, who had survived him
for nearly quarter of century, ''if
I did not think that he was too old for
me, and / told him." blush stealing
into her withered cheek as she recalls
her courtship, that I did not think it
made any difference" and she added:
eve were very happy"
Mrs. Fountleroy's family were Vir-
ginians, but she was born in Kentucky.
Her early life, however, was spent in
Virginia. "My father married my
mother in Virginia. said Mrs. Fount-
leroy. "They were both natives of
Frederick county, as my husbands
people were. They moved to Kentucky
and settled near Louisville. An old
er sister and I were born there. My
mother died when my sister and were
quite small, and our father carried US
both to our grandmothers in Vir-
ginia. 1 was given to my mothers
mother, and my sister to my fathers
mother. We used to have many a
childish quarrel as to whose grand
mother was the incest, ignoring the
fact that each was equally related
to both of us. My mothers father,
Jares Williams, was a congressman
for long while, and spent most of his
time in Washington. When was ten
years old and my sister was slightly
older, my father married again, and
took us to live in Lexington, KY. Later
we moved to Montgomery county,
Tenn, where I met my husband. We
came to Paducah some years after we
were married.
Mrs. Fountleroy, says the New Orleans
Times-Democrat, has three children,
two daughters and one son. She makes
her home with her Oldest daughter,
Mrs j. Henry Smith, of Paducah. She
is just 10 years younger than her
mother, and laughingly says that they
were girls together. She is remark
ably handsome despite her years, and
is a worthy descendant of the fair
Elizabeth. Mrs. Fountleroy's son,
Thomas Fountleroy, lives near Pa
ducah He was soldier in the civil
war in the southern army.

housed the faculty, the eight students
of the first entering class, the library
and all the other belongings of the in
stitution. This little brick building,
says the New York Tribune, has a pc
culiar attraction for those who admire
the poet Longfellow, for here, as a
student, he roomed, studied and pre-
pared his own meals. In a room on
the first floor is capacious fireplace,
which has remained unchanged since
the day the first logs blazed upon it's
broad hearth, and it was at this yawn-
ing gap in the old halls chimney that
Longfellow did his cooking.
Whether or not the poet was good
cook does not appear in any of the
records of Bowdoin, but he had the
best facilities then afforded at the col
lege, the fireplace, with its turning
spit, swinging crane to support the
kettles and pots and its glowing beds
of Goals for broiling being considered
superior to the stoves of those days.
Strangely enough, no photograph was
taken Of the old fireplace until this
summer, although thousands of Wis
itors have called to see it, and until
recently few outside the college have
been aware of the interesting fact that
it was once utilized by Longfellow for
the toasting of bread and the browning
of fapjacks.

About Eau de Cologne.

How many Of those who use eau de

almost say hourly, are aware of the
fact that it was invented by an Italian
and not by son of the fatherland
which gives it a name? asks the Pail
Mall Gazette Almost 200 years ago an
italian priest, Gioyan Maria Farina,
whose name is seen on every authentic
bottle, eked out his modest fortune by
selling perfumery, little art objects,
and SO on, at Dom odossola.. In 1902,
happening to be in Cologne and making
use of some of the finest vegetable pro-
auctions of the country, he discovered
the secret of the miraculous perfume,
which has never been revealed to this
day, except to his descendant.

Isparacher, the noted chief of the
Creek Indians, who has just passed
away in Okmulgee, Indian territory:
at the age of 90, was probably the most
remarkable full-blooded Indian of re-
cent times. He was born in the old
Creek nation in Alabama and went
westward with his tribe. He fought
in the union army and was a member
of the Indian home guards. After the
war he served as a judgezof the Creek
nation. Overthrown in 1888 by Cheko-

Fish Spawn.

Senator w. w. Dunn, of ST. Paul,
says that nearly forty times as many
fish spawn can be produced at the fish
hatchery than at present without any
additional cost of maintenance, if the
facilities for Matching are provided.
Attention is directed to the fact that,
while Wisconsin, with half as many
lakes, has two up-todate hatcheries,
Minnesota, with more lakes than any
state in the union, has only one
hatchery. Money is now available for
the purchase of tract of land adjoin-
ing the hatchery, with a. spring dis
charging as much water as the spring
which now furnishes all the water
used at the hatchery.
What is needed most now, says Ex-
ecutive Agent S. F. Fullerton, is an
appropriation for building pools and
houses to utilize the water of the
spring on the land to be acquired, the
rebuilding of the old plank fish pools
and the erection of much larger
hatching-houses.
