TWO THINGS

TALK ABOUT.
Saving Money.

First, we wish to call your
attention to the esirability Of
saving money. John ID. Rockc-
Teller tells us that "Anyone can
make money; few can save
it. The man who il saving
money is building character;
he is acquiring power. IL Is the
man with character and money

Ii is the fixed habit Of saving
something, no matter how small
that counts. Persistent saving
creates a habit OF life that is
fruitful in results. IL is Russell

On at least three different occasions
recently, when trouble has arisen be-
tween employing manufacturers OF
Barre and Bethel granite and their
workmen, the officials of the labor
unions have sided with the employers
and directed their men to return 10
work. They have based their action
from a clearly unprejudiced stand
point, without an iota OF the radical
ism that is supposed to be the chief
stock in trade Of such leaders. They
have been able to Justify themselves
to their unions, to restore good feeling
on all sides and above all to do much
toward disabusing the public mind Of
the notion that the union is always
and ever ready to sacrifice principle to
immediate gain. Ii all unions were
conducted by men OF the calibre and
substance OF those who control the
Granite Cutters and Qumrymen's
associations, there would be far less
ground for complaint from employers,
as well as the interested third party,
the people.

f81e Miracles Of Surgery.

The resurrected surgeon OF the '7Os.
II shown how his twentieth century
brothers are baking disease and death
would be able to think of nothing but
miracles. Modern surgery ventures. with
the surety of curing. into regions of the
body that to have entered In his day
would have been murder. It has reduced
the danger of many operations from al
most certain mortality to almost certain
recovery. 1t eradfcates diseases that
could then have been cured only by death.
Modern surgery is doing what 40 years
ago could have been done by God alone.
Suppose. for instance. that one of these
old practitioners, accustomed to slash out
external cancer and rarely saving
Indignantly affected case and accustomed
to regard patient with abdominal can
Ger as already IN the yard--suppose
he were shown that an external cancer
can be cured by merely thrusting metal
coated pencils into It and that his never
conquered enemy, abdominal cancer. can
be eradicated by the patients drinking a
liquid preparation and wearing a bit Of
metal near the affected area. He would
certainly cry miracles" And yet the
surgery Of 1905 is accomplishing just
these cures.
To appreciate the achievements of the
surgery of today one must give glance
al that Of the early 'T0s. The operating
dress Of the surgeon sums up the state Of
surgery at that time. Instead of the
sterilized washable gown OF today It was
a black coat. in which the surgeon OPP
erared on all cases CORY with the accumu-
lated blood of all his patients veritable
fabric of disease germs which our i'm
agination pictures dropping OF into. open
wounds The instruments, as Ike as not
germ-infected. were drawn out Of their
cnse and introduced into the patient-per-
haps in a spirit Of fair barter giving them
a new disease IN exchange for the one
cured.
Hospitals were unclean. and hlled with
dead air-germ-b breeding. As a result of
these methods and conditions hospital
gangrene, erysipelas and blood poisoning
we're common in surgery wards; simple
operations often took effect on the most
serious character from complications;
compound fractures frequently were 4
months in healing, and often meant an
amputated limb or the loss of life Com
pared to the surgery OF today. the sur
gerry of thar time was itself a disease.
The miraculous achievements OF modern
surgery and its wonderful progress in the
last 30 years are due, first of all. to
asepsis a generation ago, before Lord
lister had begun his experiments that led
to antisepsis then to asepsis. cleanliness

in the vicinity of certain trees, and have
the consciousness of living in the most
remarkable forest in the world-a forest
that seems to belong to the age of Titans.
something that has been left behind in
the race of time.
Figures and measurements convey but
little Idea Of the actual size Of these
giants yet they are interesting.
In all probability one of the most strik-
ing is the Grizzly Giant 90. This tree
has branches over 100 or more feet from
the ground, that are themselves larger
than any trees found In many parts Of
the world.
This splendid masterpiece. doubtless
1900 or 5000 years old, stands IN a we'll
wooded forest of other trees that form
rich, green alcove about It. and which
brings Its rugged form out into high re
lief, and one can glance down long
arcades Of green through other forests.
and the Impression grows upon one that
these other trees have gathered about
the master to protect it and shut 1t IN;
but nothing could hide this gigantic col
umn that seems to preserve its size as It
rises and to have thrown out a forest OF
gigantic trees high IN air as branches,
