When child had very severe at
tack of Diphtheria, which came near prov
ing fatal. Upon recovery the glands of the
neck were very much enlarged and after
the free use of iodine, the right one was
reduced to its normal size, but the left
one continued to grow-very slowly at
hrst, until it was about the size of goose
egg which began to press on the wind
pipe, causing difficult breathing, and be-
came very painful. An incision was made
and large quantity of pus discharged.
The gland was removed, or as much as
could with safety be taken out. For ten
years wore little piece of cloth about an
inch long Ia my neck to keep the place
open. During this time had to have it
cut open by the doctor every time took

WORK OF JEFFERSON.
It Certainly Entities Him to the Ma
TONS Gratitude.
Memorial to the Author of the Dee
Iarntion of Independent to he
Erected at Washington by
Public Subscription.

! 1t ought to be easy for the Thomas
Jefferson Memorial association TO ac-
complish its purpose. The association,
which has branch in each state, and
which has Admiral Dewey al its head,
nas issued an appeal to the American
people for funds to erect IA tablet, mon
ument or other memorial 10 Jefferson
at the national capital. The intention
is not to ask anything from congress,
but to rely solely on the voluntary con-
tributions Of the people. The admiral
says that 1.-The character and cost of
the proposed memorial cannot now be
stated, but it will be appropriate to
the greatness of the man and the i'm
portance of the document from which
his name is insepara Bile. Rigid econo-
my will be observed in carrying on the
work"
Here was buried Thomas Jefferson,
author of the Declaration of American
independence, of the Statue of Virginia
for Religious Freedom, and Father of
the University Of Virginia" This in
scription on his grave in Monticello,
written by Jefferson himself, omits one
very important claim which its author
had on the rememb rance of his coun-
trymen. 1t made no reference to the
Louisiana expansion, which is the act
of Jefferson's that is uppermost in the
minds of his countrymen at this time.
Oddly, too, Admiral Dewey, who has
just issued his appeal for funds for
the memorial, seems not to have had
this act in mind. Jefferson's and Dew
ey's countrymen, however, will supply
the omission. The statute of religious
freedom for Virginia and the creation
OF the great university of that state,

though important events, were hardly
as great as the act by which their au-
thor doubled the area of the United
States and started the country on its
career of expansion. That act averted
the possibility of the erection of a Can
ada on our western border, deereed
that the United States should diffuse
itself across the continent between the
two oceans, and rendered it inevitable
that this country sAould be paramount
in the western hemisphere and be one
of the great forces in the worlds pro-
gress.
The lack of Jefferson memorial in
Washington, which has monuments
and statues to many smaller person
ages, is one of the surprises of the age.
jefferson was the first president to be
inaugurated in the present seat Of
Americans government. The man for
whom the capital city was named was
dead at the time the seat Of national
authority was transferred to its pres
ent location. Washington's first inau-
guration was in New York and Adams
was in Philadelphia, but Jefferson and
all his successors have been inducted
into office in Washington. For many
reasons it is eminently proper that the
third president should have a memo
rial in that city. The vast Louisiana
province, which had 100000 of the
country's 100000 of people in 1900,
and which forms one of the richest por-
tions of the United States, will always
be monument to jefferson, but the
remembrancer which is sought to be
put up in the national capital is so emil
nently fitting that lis strange it's cree
tion should have been delayed to our
day. Here in the vast region which
Jefferson's foresight and courage ad-
ded to the domain of the American peo-
pie the appeal for funds for a memorial
to him should, says the St. Louis Globe
Democrat, meet an especially prompt
and hearty response.

POOR LITTLE GRACE.
Tragedy of a Sleepy Girl Told in a
Touching Way.
Had to Get I'D at $40 In the Morning
for So Many Years That Now
She is Incapable OF Enjoy
ing "A Change.

If there was one thing more than an
other that Grace detested it was hay-
ing to get up early in the morning. In
addition to the usual perverse sleep
mess at the rising hour that every one
experiences she had a deep-seated OBJ
lection to getting up while other folks
more fortunate were privileged to lie
and sleep. 1t spoiled her temper for
the day and her family learned to let
herseverely alone tillabout noon, when
the atmosphere cleared and she
emerged into herself.
All during her school years Grace
was routed out at 6:30 in order to get
her breakfast, collect her books, do
half an hours practicing and travel
five miles to school and get there on
time at nine O'Clock. Those years were
one continuous grumble of rebellion,
which was plentifully interspersed
with the prophecy of the delicious
hours she should sleep when she had
come to the last period in her gradual
ton essay. She had charming dreams
of the languid way in which she would
arise at 10 and II o'clock when that
halcyon time arrived.
When she got out Of school the FAM
lily fortunes had changed, says the Chi
cago Daily News, and Grace went
downtown to work in an office. She
had to be there at eight o'clock and her
alarm clock went off at six. OF course
she never heard it, but no one expected
her to. 1t was her heroic mother who
took it upon herself to get Grace up
and hurry her away. The young wom-
an sat in a glover during every trip to
the city. She did not read the paper
like her fellow traveleps-she brooded
on the applicability of fate and tried
to figure out if she lived to be so years
old just how many times she would be
dragged from slumbers delicious at
pitch dark in the winter time and at
the early peep of the robins in sum-
mer. The mathematical result did not
add to her geniality. She meditated
upon the revenge she would take after
that, because she intended to save

mark. and she promised herself that
she would sleep % hours out of the "A
from that time on.
Then she got married. In jokes Grace
had always vowed she would marry
nobody but waiter in night restaur-
ant, because his work would make it
unnecessary to have breakfast before
noon. Or, she admitted, policeman
who went on duty about 3 o'clock in
the afternoon would do. However, the
young man she welded was contrac-
tor He had to be at his office at z
o'clock precisely in order to get his
force of men off for the day.
When the two came back from their
wedding trip and opened the door of
the dainty fiat they had furnished
Grace faced the prospect of arising
still earlier than she ever had done be-
fore in order that Harry's coffee might
be just right and his breakfast hot and
tempting. For once in her life she did
not growl. Harry appreciated to the
full her immolation on the altar of de-
votion.
Grace purchased an alarm clock with
gong like fire bell and hung ii within
two inches of her ear. The first time it
went off she jumped from dreamland
with start--in the direction of the
clock. That gave her black eye and
Harry a bad reputation among the
neighbors. When even this alarm failed
20 arouse her Harry discovered and
| purchased a fiendish invention that

self-defense to silence it. Stern devo-

bined to get Grace up in time. She re-
linquished her dreams and was re-
signed TO an early-rising fate
When she had reached this point her
husband had a fine business offer which
made it unnecessary for him to get to
the city till o'clock or after and Grace
welcomed the prospect with boundless
| Joy. Instead of 5:30-the hour which
stretched hideous backward over two
years-she might sleep till or after
