Man and His Troubles.

oman that is born of women is of
few days and full of microbes. He
hoppeth out of bed in the morning
and his feet are pierced with the
tack of disappointment He walketh
through the streets of the city in the
pride and and glory of his manhood
and slippeth on the banana peel of
misfortune and unjointeth his neck.
He smoketh the cigar of contentment,
and behold! it explo d eth wi loud
noise, for it was loaded. He slideth
down the banister Of life and en-
countered m any sivers of torture.
He lieth down to sleep at night and
is stung by the mosquitoes of an
noyance and his frame is knawed by
the bed-bug of adversely.
"What is man but the blind worm
! of fate? Behold he is impaled upon
the hook of despair and furnishes bait
for the leviathan death, in the fathom-
less ocean of time. Sorrow and travail
follow him all the days of his life.
In his infancy he is afflicted with the
worms and collie and in his old age he
is afflicted with the rheumatism and
ingrowing toenails. He marryeth a
crossed eyed woman because her father
is rich, and findeth she has not sense
enough to fry the festive chuck steak.
His fatherin law then monkeyeth
with options and goeth under.
"What is man but the tumor on the
neck Of existence? He playeth the
races and beteth all on the brown mare
because he hath received a tip. The
sorrel gelding winneth by aneck. Be-
hold, he runneth for Office, and the
deadbeat pulleth his leg ever and anon
and then voteth for the other man.
He exalteth himself among his people
and sweIeth with pride, but when the
votes are counted his name is mud.
He boasted of his strength in Israel
and is beaten by redheaded man
from the Bloody Third. He goeth
forth to breath the fresh air and med
itate upon the vanity of earthly things,
and is accosted by bank cashier with
a sight draft of $497.32. A political
enemy lieth in wait for him in the
market place and walketh around
growing like cock.

ical association, agreed with others
present that the clinical diagnosis of
appendicitis seldom permitted an ac-
curate judgment of the case, and seri-
GUS doubt of the value Of operations
was expressed. Professor Orth said
that in 10 per cent of his cases the
appendix did not confirm the diagnosis,
and in another 10 per cent there was
no disease whatsoever, while he knew
of many serious cases which had been
cured without operating.
New Lockjaw Treatment.
A new treatment for lockjaw has
been used successfully in two cases at
the Pennsylvania hospital in Philadel-
phia. 1t is simply more rational use
of the tetanus antitoxin. Heretofore
it has been the practice to make the
injection in the spinal cord without
regard to the locality Of the infection.
Now the plan is to inject into nerve
close to the point Of infection.
The Earth Self Heater.
Professor Charles Thwing announces
as a result of his researches at the
Western Reserve university that the
common metals and rocks Of which
the earth is constituted have the inter-
nal temperature due to radio activity.
He estimates that the heat thus con-
stantly generated will maintain the
earth at it's present temperature for
many millions of years, and he con-
cludes that at least part of the suns
heat is due to the same principle with
