SURGERY IN HIGH FAVOR.
People Now Readily Submit to oper-
atoms Who Once Snrank
from Them.

Not SO many years ago surgical opera
tiOns were generally regarded by the
public as a means of last resort, and were
submitted to only when the patient or
his family was advised that no other es-
cape was open for the sufferer. Fre-
quently, says the Baltimore Herald, the
sick man was in extremis when he went
under the surgeon 'sknife, and it is as
serted by medical men that the large
mortality in a given number of opera
tions was due to this fact. In this way
the popular fear of going through these
ordeals was increased, the surgeons gen
orally being held responsible for the IA
tai outcome.
To-day there is less fear Of the knife,
and statistics show that the mortality
is far less. This is attributed by the
profession to the advanced views now
held. and what may be termed the great
er popularity Of surgery. OF course,
most potent contribution to this condi-
ton Of affairs is the more extensive
knowledge possessed by the modern sur
geon and his greater skill. But there
is another source from which help
comes; that is. that cases requiring the
services of surgeons are not delayed un-
til the last minute, when the patients are
SO exhausted OF they cannot stand the
shock they must necessarily sustain.
To-day II is appreciated by all stu
dents of ills to which flesh is heir that
II the knife Is tn he uead The coouer n
is done the better; just as everybody
knows that n a disease is to be checked.
the sooner medicine is administered the
better. And TO this view Of the mat
ter the doctor and the surgeon have grad
ually educated the people. This ae-
counts for the popularity Of surgery and
for the material diminishing Of the
death rate Of persons passing under the
knife.

Farewell That painful, pensive word she CRIED
Regardless of the grief it would impart--
AS if her soul it only gratifed
To trampe upon my broken heart
Oh must we be compelled to believe ~
The sweetest things are an idle dream
That the human heart is prone to deceive,
And earthly joys are not what they seem?
If the lapse of time will kindly explain
The motive Of my beautiful Belle,
l will forever silent remain
In obeyance to her cruel Farewell" "
But the fragrance Of sweetest flowers
We so long loved and cherished
May remain, and remain yet as ours
After the flowers have perished.
And the melodies that charmed US
In the grasp of that sweet, magic SPELL
Ere the evil that alarmed us
In the repine of sad farewell
Perchance that act Of an unknown cause
May crown itself with bitter prize,
AS those who leap before they pause
Reward their act with bitter sighs. IA
After the clouds, we fully realize
The dual value of the clearness-
The infinite beauty of the skies
And their everlasting dearness.

Indian Territory the capital of the state if Okla

on account of beraty the part of Oklahoma
