La NNNIOAI
Provides For Surgical Treatment Of
Hopeless Cases IN Pennsylvania.
Harrisburg. Pa. March 22. 49, The
house of representatives passed finally
IN act fer the prevention of idiocy,
and It viii now be sent to the governor
or his approval. This is one of the
most important bills introduced in the
legislature. and Is quite similar TO one
which passed both houses four years
ago. and which after having been re
turned by the governor for some minor
corrections was mysteriously lost.
The bill provides that on the first
day of July after the passage Of this
ect it shall be compulsory for each
and every institution in the state en-
trusted exclusively or specially with
the care of idiots and imbecile chill
dren, to appoint upon its staff at least
cne skilled neurologist and one skilled
surgeon of recognized ability, whose
duty it shall be, in conjunction with
the chief physician Of the institution,
TO examine the mental and physical
condition Of the inmates. If in the
Judgment of this committee Of experts
and board Of trustees procreation is
inadvisable. and there is no probability
Of improvement Of the mental condi-
ton Of the inmate. It shall be lawful
for the surgeon TO perform such oper-
alton as shall be decided safest and
most effective. but this operation shall
not be performed except in cases that
have been pronounced non-improvable
after one years test in an institution.

Sam related several other incidents
in the career of the Shaws, and Jessie
laughed until the tears ran down her
cheeks. They bid Sam good-day, and
watched him until he disappeared with
the famous trotter in a cloud of dust.
After supper they waited for the ris-
ing of the full moon. They saw the
stately orb of night break above the
oceans rim and blend its white light
with the pink afterglow of sunset.
Bathed in her food, they turned their
horses homeward, riding through
Swallowed and shimmering fairyland.
The gnarled and windwrenched ap-
pie trees were etched in lines Of weird
beauty against the sky The rugged
stone walls were softened, and faded
away into dreamy perspectives.
In the years which followed, how the
scenes and incidents Of that summer
came back to John Burt! Under many
skies he recalled the happy hours
spent with Jessie Garden. Again he
drifted with her in boat, floating at
will of breeze and tide, her hand trail
ing in the water, and the murmur of
her voice in his ears. Again they
walked down the wooded path, while
the black of the night stood like wall
in front Of them and Jessie clutched
at his arm when an owl sounded his
solemn cry.

way to a pavilion and impressively or
dered the suggested refreshments.
Jessie engaged Sam in conversation,
laughing merrily at his odd remarks
and stories. He pointed to an old
farmer who drove past in rickety
wagon.
"There goes old man Shaw" said
Sam. "He lives down the road from

TREES THAT GIVE COCOA.
cocoanut Palm and Cacao Tree Both
Handsome Specimens.

EIdHbSo'ic SPCSH'S'o'
Many of us who use cocoa and
cocoanuts daily do not know that they
are obtained from two distinct trees.
The cocoanut palm Is the fruit Of a
tall and graceful palm tree, whereas
the cocoa, or more properly cacao, Is
the powdered seed of small and
handsome tree, bearing no resem-
blance to the cocoa palm. In fact.
the cacao tree is closely allied to the
linden or lime trees. No one who has
ever seen the peculiar appearance pre-
scented by the cacao tree will be likely
to mistake it for anything else. The
tree itself grows to height Of TWEEN
ty or twenty-five feet, with rather
smooth and slender trunk, thick,
bushy and symmetrical top, and hand
some broad, oval leaves of deep pur-
pie or bronze color. Instead of grow
ing at the end of the branches or
twigs, as do most blossoms, the fiow-
ers bud out directly from the bark or
the limbs and trunk The flowers are
small and insignificant, but the fruit,
shaped like cucumber grows to
large size, sometimes eight or ten
feet in length and three or four inches
across. 1t is brilliantly colored or
apge, red or yellow, and under favor
able conditions fairly covers the tree,
and is a beautiful sight.
