Triumphs of Modern Surgery.

Wonderful things are done for the
human body by surgery. Organs
are taken out and scraped and pol
Ished and put back, or they may be
removed entirely; bones are spliced
pipes take the place of diseased sect
ions of veins; antiseptic dressings
are applied to wounds, bruise, burns
and like injuries before infiamma-
ton sets in, which causes them to
heal without maturation and In one
third the time required by the old
ire TIM emit. Chamberlain Pain
Balm acts upon this same principal.
It is an antiseptic and when applied
to such injuries, causes them to heal
very quickly. 1t also allays the
pain and soreness. Keep q bottle
of Pain Balm in your home and it
will save you time and money, not
to mention the Inconvenience and
suffering which such injuries en-
tail.

Weapons of. Early Gold Hunters.

From the Kansas City Journal.
While ploughing in his field near E;ufaula
recently Mr. Charles Gibson uncovered a
large number of weapons. some of which
were rifles of an old style some blunder-
buses. few old-time pistols and couple
of swords. All these weapons are in fair
state of preservation. and are apparently OF
Spanish make.
According to Greek tradition a party Of
adenturous Spaniards. numbering fifty
four In the year 1904. left New Orleans on
burros and went to the territory in search
of gold. They secured all the precious
metal they could carry. and on their way
back they were beset by a band of Shaw
nees near Standing Rock eight miles east
of Eufauia. and a great battle followed.
The Spaniards. with the exception OF two.
who escaped on a raft, were ahnihilated-
It is supposed that the weapons pioughed
up on Mr.. Gibson's place are the ones that
were used by the Spaniards mentioned
above.

AERIAL RAILWAY IN INDIA.
Sensational Religious Ceremony That
Takes Place in the HimaIayas.

From Chambers Journal
| One of the most remarkable and sensa-
| tional religious ceremonies in the whole of
| India takes place annually at Kulu IN the
Himalayas.
From a cliff overhanging a precipitnus
gorge several hundred feet deep a rope is
stretched and fastened to strong stake
| on the opposite side of the ravine. The
| rope is of great length. nearly $500 feet.
and when it Is stretched taut the upper
end will be several hundred feet higher
! than the lower end
Down this terrible incline the victim
performer slides, the precaution having
been taken to wet the rope to prevent it
| from catching fire from the friction
This descent is effected as follows: The
| performer sits astride on a kind of rough
wooden saddle fitted with holes through
which the rope is threaded while to lis
legs are attached bags filled with sand to
enable him to maintain upright posi-
ton during his descent and also to in
crease the momentum. The lower end of
the rope is wound, round with rugs and
carpets in order to check the descent at
landing and prevent the jheri, as the per-
former is called. from dashing his brains
out against the pole to which the rope
is fastened.
The first few hundred yards of the de-
scent is accomplished with lightning We
locity. is indicated by the stream of
smoke which follows in his wake. The in
cline then diminishing, the pace becomes
slower and slower. so that by the time
he reaches the goal he is able to stop MIN
self without danger.
The underlying motive of this curious
ceremony is that If the flight is safely
accomplished prosperity is assured &c the
crops for that year.. This sentiment natur-
ally minimiZes the danger of the feat.
it Is to every. ones interest that it should
be safely accomplished. Indeed. similar
motive is at the bottom of certain religious
festivals in Roman Catholic countries
A well-inown example of this is the fete
of the Scoppio at Florence, when dove,
albeit an artificial one. performs an aerial
fight of a somewhat similar nature a
wire stretched from the summit of the
high altar of the cathedral to an wagon
filled with fireworks which is stationed in
front Of the west door. The Himalayan
ceremony can be traced back for hundreds
of years. and the men who perform the
feat form a small distinct caste.
