millions over the year previous. There
was also a healthy increase in the
value of imports. This increase was
made in face of the fact that during

Halloran was appointed to the serv-

the trip is no joke when the thermOm'

only one day. Thus out of 5,OO8 trips

An aneurism is formed by a blood

until the tissues stretch and touch
the walls of the chest, when it bursts,
causing instant death.
About a month ago physicians who
examined Williams regularly told him
he should stop work or the aneurism
would burst
He was removed to the hospital
and has since remained in bed,
scarcely daring to move. AS a last
resort surgeons decided on an opera
tion to save the patients life.
The aneurism was pricked, and as
the silver wire was fed into the open

around inside so as to form frame
