Los Angeles, Cal.-Dr. John B. Muir
ply has restored the reasoning powers
Of Arthur Melton, since his fifth year
a victim of epilepsy.
The surgeon CHANGED to visit a for
mer patient at Esperanza while visit
ing at Pasadena, and, becoming inter-
ested. agreed to operate. DIR. Murphy's
theory is that the membrane surround
ing the back of the brain, known as the
dura mater, is the seat of epileptic af-
fections, and he removed it. The pa
tient is rid of his af1iction.

COST OF LIVING HIGHER.
Greater Than For twenty-five Years
On Crest Of Prosperity.

On Crest of Prosperity.
New York City.-Meats. milk. butter,
eggs and vegetables are higher in price
now than for twenty-five years, accord
ing to a statement issued by Dun's
Agency. Bread and breadstuffs are q
little lower han they were a year ago.
ClGthing and everything that the
people use. including all the industrial
metals. are at the top price since 1884.
This means that the cost of living is
greater now than for nearly a genera
ton past. which is taken by political
econimists to indicate that the wave of
prosperity in America is on the crest,
with no sign, though, OF an immediate
break.
The advance in clothing and metals
has been more pronounced than in
food.

Harold's parents could do nothing

away II officer noticed a scar on the
boys forehead. The mother told him
that the boy, when five years old, had

SACRAMENTO, May 7.-When seen
by Union representative today and
asked whether or not a special session
of the legislature would be called, Gov
ernor Pardee said
"They must show me first. What

pared, a wide-open call at that. Neverl
Never! If there is a call-mind l say
fit must be for such specific purpose
and with such limitations that no mis-
take can be made that human prudence
can guard against. But wide-open
call, never.
Il am not sure, if it should be de-
termined that extra legislation is need
full in this crisis, that before 1 will
sign call for the legislature to as
semble, every bill, measure and resolu-
ton to be passed should be agreed
upon, prepared and included in the call
that may be done constitutionally;
then let the legislators take or leave
the measures. There must be no mis-
takes in this matter. 1t is ope thing
to call a Legislature, another to see its
finish. But L have not determined to
call an extra session. The matter is
one wholly of speculation. We must
know what we want an extra session
for first, and on that head / am not
