REMARKABLE SURGERY.
Organs of Animals Transferred to
Human Beings.

Two or three years ago some enter
prising surgeons in Chicago tried an
interesting experiment on a dog.
They removed a kidney, and con-
nected the artery and big vein of the
organ with corresponding blood YES
sells in the neck of the same animal.
Their object was to see whether these
channels would remain sound, and
if the kidney would perform its duty
of removing impurities from the sys-
TEN when transplanted to new pO-
sition. 1t did, and so indicated that
perhaps the kidney of an animal
might perhaps be substituted for the
diseased organ of a human being
some day. Well, a Frenchman named
Jaboulay has followed up that expert
ment with two more, which are of
an even more encouraging character,
although he did not go as far as some
one else will do eventually.
In both instances human patients
were the subjects of the experiment,
but the transplanted organ was not
introduced into their bodies, but con-
nected with one arm, at the bend of
the elbow. In both instances the con-
nection with the artery was perfect
enough to establish a circulation of
the blood through the kidney, and
the kidney extracted little material
from the blood. Inasmuch as gan
creme set in, it was deemed desirable
to remove the kidney after three
days. In one case the kidney of pig
was used. In the other it was taken
from a goat.
AS any physician can readily see, it
would be unnecessary in any future
undertaking of this class to put the
new organ in the place occupied by
the old one All that is necessary is
to connect tine blood vessels of the
kidney with a human artery and vein,
and provide means for collecting the
discharge from the sewer pipe OF the
organ. Jaboulay thinks that the
bend of the elbow offers particular
ly convenient and safe place for the
graft. The worst drawback to his
experiment was the formation OF
blood clots in the transplanted organ.
Whether this was due TO the species
Of animal from which it was taken
or to some other circumstance he was
not able to determine.-New York

rection-not a person on the car with
whom she had even a bowling az
quaintance, except -. Another deep
sigh, and she started off. Once she
glanced back to see if he had by any
chance followed, but no, there he
was, talking and laughing with the
conductor! In spite of all she could
do tear rolled down her cheek. She
had never felt so forlorn in her life
before; never had longed so for him,
that is, never had admitted it.
The wind blew the snow in her
face, and she was nearly exhausted
every step grew more difficult. The
tears fell faster now, and she dabbed
at them piteously with a snow-laden
little handkerchief Suddenly a par
ticularly strong gust of wind swept
by and she clutched at a fence, while
a mournful little sob broke from her
lips Just as pair Of strong arms
folded her tightly to a rough snowy
coat.
20, Jack!' she cried, without even
glancing at the face above her.
He drew her arm through his and
led her to her door. Nothing but
those two words had been spoken,
but there are times when few mo-
ments of silence expresses more than
whole hours Of conversation.
Come in, Jack" she whispered.
Il want you to"
Forgive me, dear, he answered
while they were waiting for the door
to open. II was wholly to blame-it
was my fault"
"No, jack" she quickly inter-
rupted, "all mine. But, dear" a lit

the still undried tears, you will al
ways remember that you spoke first,

Intensive Farming EXempIlleu'
The possibilities Of lettuce growing
are almost wonderful especially UNI

shall write in later communication.
Lettuce is to be considered as one Of
the important winter crops Of the

1t is one of the very few crops
which has received what may be
termed intensive" cultivation. When
all the trucking and regular farm
crops of Eastern Virginia and North
Carolina receive the same care and

crop receives, we shall see one of
the most wonderful sections of the

Settlement Time.

This is a period of the year that
tries the manhood of the average in
dividual, or rather of more average
individuals than any other.
1t is settlement time.
There are different settlement
times all through the year, and many
of those that are met squarely as
they develop are postponed until now
Sometimes these postponements
are made in good faith. In fact, this
is frequently the case. But almost
as often these postponements are
mere pretexts, this particular time
being designated because it is gem
orally recognized as general settle
ment time.
To meet a settlement squarely is
not necessarily a sign of manhood.
In the first place it is a plain duty,
and in the second place many meet 1t
because they have sense enough to
know that it is the best policy But
to fail to meet settlement time square
is a sure sign of lack of manhood.
Men are not always able to settle.
The best men often find themselves
in such a position But the best of
men never try to dodge such an is
sue. They meet it squarely and make
such arrangements as they are able.
The individual who can pay what
he owes at this season and doesn't
is not a good business man, and un-
less he can and does make arrange
ments satisfactory to his creditor he
is not good man. BY being deprived
Of his own when it is due, the cred
itor may be ruined, and the man who
seeks to save himself at the expense
of his creditor is lacking in all the
elements of fairness, justice and in
tegrity.
When everybody does their best at
settlement time, the result is best
for every individual and for the en-
tire community
There is no good reason to believe
that settlement time is not being fair
ly met this year, and for the good Of
all concerned it is hoped that the
number of dodgers will be less than
has ever been known before.--York-

Thinning Fruit.

Mr.. J. H. Hale, pioneer peach
grower of Georgia, writes to the In

apply almost or quite as surely to

Behold, it's flame is Pickering.
Because a Wind is blowing nigh:
Look forth and see a shadow fall
Upon the common roadside wall.

Whose spirit in the clamor reels.
Whose ears are filled with nothingness,
Unmeaning drone of endless wheels,
Come walk with us, and you shall learn
Whose hands THEN mighty axles turn.

With dizzy brain and bruised feet;
While clouds of dust, all fiery red.

Formalin For Scours.

On account of the general impor-
lance and prevalence Of scours among
calves fed on skim milk, l.. A. Klein,
of the South Carolina Experiment
Station, tested the value Of formalin
added to the milk before feeding to
the calves. In these experiments
twelve calves were treated by adding
formalin to the milk at the rate Of
one part to four thousand. Eleven
calves recovered without any furth-
or treatment seven on the second
day, three on the third and one on
Inc ninth. In one case it was found
necessary to administer castor oil,
creolin and subnitrate Of bismuth
before complete recovery was
brought about. In three cases Of
scours in calves running at pasture
aud receiving grain at the same time
the formalin treatment did not prove
effective.
