MADE SANE BY OPERATION.
Physlclan's Reason Lost in Accident
 Permanently Restored.

Dr. Bernard Hollander, a we'll known London physician, describes a remarkable cure of insanity by oper. ation. His patient, doctor, received a kick from horse on the right of the chin. followed year later by a heavy fall from bicycle on the right side of his head. Soon the doctors character changed completely. He suffered severely from headache and neuralgia pains. which incapacitated him from work. He became emo. tional, irritable, very profane, and de- veioped suicidal tendencies. His strange conduct frequently led him into difficulties. After suffering for seven years and trying all possible medical treatment, he consulted Dr. Hollander, who, believing the seat of the disease to be in circumscrib- ed part of the brain, advised opera tion. On trephining, a morbid condi- ton of the skull in this region was discovered, and an excess of cerebro. spinal fluid. which had prevented the brain from pulsating. Three weeks after the operation the patient was well, and has remained in perfect mental and physical health ever sincs.

WAS A SUCCESS.

Jack Johnson's tour of Australia has proved success in every respect. In all parts of the antipodean conti- nent he has been greeted with honors and applause, and so far as his ring opponents are concerned his path has been very rosy. He has had two bat ties, and knocked out both of his men inside of 10 rounds each. While unable to get on a match with Bill Squires. the heavyweight champion of Australia who sailed for this coun- try just as Johnson arrived, the col ored heavyweight champion is deter mined to come back and force him into a match. Johnson has no req sons to regret his long trip, as he has picked up considerable money be- tween his fights and his exhibitions in the Australian theaters.

Church Built from One Tree.

"a large Baptist church that stands
in the city of Santa Rosa, Cal, enjoys
the distinction of having. been con.
s5ructed entirely from single tree"
says the Technical World Magazine
for March. "Of course, that includes
the wood work of the structure. The
tree from which the timbers, lumber,
and shingles were cut was giant CAL
ifornia redwood. A considerable Quan-
tity of the lumber was left over after
the church building was completed.
This building has spire seventy feet
high; an audience room capable OF
seating 800; parlor CAPABLE of seating
80; a pastor study fourteen by 20 feet
and yestibule and toilet room. The
building is 35xS0 feet. There are moi
many buildings in the country all the
timber of which came from a single
tree"
