Triumphs OF Modern Surgery

Wonderful things are done for the
human body by surgery. Organs are
taken out and scraped and polished and
put back or they may be removed EN-
tirely; bones are spliced; pipes taken
the place of diseased sections Of veins;
antiseptic dressings are applied to
wounds, bruises, burns and like injuries
before Inflammation sets in, which
causes them to heal without matura-
tion and in one-third the time required
by the old treatment. Chamberlain 8
Pain Balm acts on this same principle.
1t is an antiseptic and when applied to
such injuries, causes them to heal very
quickly. It also allays the pain and
soreness. Keep bottle of Pain Balm
in your home and it will save you time
and money, not to mention the incon-
venlence and suffering which such
injuries entail. For sale by all drug
gists.

Market Report,

Butter-With creamery down to 1874
cents in New York, and lots of people
who ought to be sending their milk to
the creameries making butter at home,
and putting it on this market, you
will easily understand that the market
is very eayily overstocked and merch-
ants have hundreds of pounds of but
ter, which has cost them IS and 20
cents which they will have to ship, and
can't hope to get over 10 or II cents
for it. 1t certainly seems wise to me,
for every one who can to be loyal to
their creameries as creamery butter
will doubtless advance pretty soon,
when cold storage people begin to want
June butter. While if the present con-
dition continues, dairy will surely go
so low as to be hardly worth making;
will pay this week .15c trade, 12c cash.
Eggs-The cool weather has helped
hold up the market ;cold storage people
are nearly through buying, but con-
sumption OF eggs is large IN all the
cities and while it is really more than
we ought to pay, will pay this week
15c in goods 12c in cash, for strictly
fresh gathered and clean eggs. Don't
bring dirty eggs or half hatched ones [
can't use them.
There is no change in other farm
products. In fact there does not seem
much else to bring as the gardeners
supply the market with all kinds of
vegetables etc fresh every morning.

to turn the poetic expression Of happi-
ness and simple gayety into mere
vulgar exhibition.
Among the natives of Tahiti a similar
dance under the same name is found, ex-
cept that here the men take part. The
dances here are all illustrative of some
song. Perhaps it is song of love, Of
the courtship Of some timid maiden.
The song is low and tender, the maid
dances lightly to and fro swaying her
slender body to the rhythm of the chant.
Suddenly the lover appears. He warily
approaches The maiden, alright, flies
beyond. she assumes look and attitude of
indifference. This goes on for hours
sometimes. the pursued gradually
yielding, while faster he pursues and
faster the music plays till at last she
turns conquered by his persistence and
stretches forth her hands, turned palm
up. a token of submission, and the
dance is over.
Among the Samoan tribes the danceE
are Of still q slightly different nature.
They call an assembly Of the dancers
and the dance itself the Seva-seva.
Instead of standing upright as the
other dancers do. the greater part Of the
time they are on their knees, or crouch
ing in circle.
The attire is practically the same ex-
cept that the Samoans bleach the hair
with lime till it is Of reddish hue and
dress fantastically. They are also
tatooed.
The Fits are more weird, their hair
being stiffened into a great pyramid and
decorated with mirrors, shells or flow
ers, anything that can be attached. The
dance is akin to the Samoan islanders
though not so graceful.
The Solomon islanders are very diff
ferent looking race. small and very
black They delight IN war dances with
dreadful masks and huge wands of some
corl-like substance woven like q
shield.
The Maoris of New Zealand dance the
Hala, men, women and children. 1t is
a sort Of drill accompanied by horrid
grimaces. thrusting out the tongue and
rolling the eyes
Among all these people the dance is
the natural expression Of joy. triumph
or celebration.
