Modern Surgical Ritual.

The scene at an operating table in
one Of our hospitals now would make
one OF the old masters Of surgery
stare. The operator himself and all
his staff are dressed like the old holy
priests Of Solomon's Temple, wearing
white caps and gowns, with the nurses
standing around like priestesses all in
spotless white, while everyone about
the table has gone through as many
additions as BELTS the occasion Of a
bloody sacrifice under the auspices of
the immaculate Goddess of Cleanli-
ness. A minute and elaborate ritual
has been observed of sterilizing every.
thing-towels, threads, needles, for.
ceps, instruments, and what not,
while the floor itself ia made of glass
or glazed tiles, rather than Of wood.
The surgeon himself does not venture
to cut the victim till he has put on his
steriliZed gloves, because he cannot
possibly clean his own fingers enough
Should any onlooker take his hand
out of his pocket to reach for the gap.
Ing wound, he would be elected in
stanter for spelling the whole per.

Gov. Stuart's Story.

Gov. Stuart, of Pennsylvania, ap-
proaches public speaking with diff
dence. This feeling never left him.
despite his four years as mayor Of
Philadelphia. However, his long and
hard gubernatorial campaign gave him
greater confidence in himself, and to
day he makes a strong and powerful
public address, But he never attempts
even short address without first re.
ferring to the fact that he is not an
orator, and thus prepares his audi
ence for surprise. The other day.
introducing himself to the students at
Pennsylvania State college. he told this
story:
There was lCquaCious Scottish

LEARNED sY SAD EXPERIENCE
kafir Lad Found Out Just What
Beating Meant.

Just as a Kafir is slow in locating
rain which is being experienced in his
own body, so is he slow in imagining
what others are suffering. A grown
up Kafir related, says Mr.. Dudley
Kidd, in Savage Childhood that
when he was child his father threat
ened him with a beating If he did
something or other.
The child was puzzled as TO What
sort of thing a beating might be, for
although he had often seen his bigger
brothers beaten, his imagination WIS
unable to work on the sight and re-
construct the experience of these 9th
ers into terms of his own senses.
When his father threatened him,
therefore, he simply laughed, for he
had not the remotest idea Of how a
beating really felt. 1t took very
short time for the young gentleman to
extend the boundaries of his knowl-
edge
Swift retribution followed the I'M
pardonable sin Of showing disrespect
to his father. AS the children go
about entirely bare, there was no de-
lay for preparation. The father took
stick and applied 1t vigorously, "ac-
cording to directions" and with entire
SUCCESS.
when the tears and smarting were
over" said the Kafir in his old age, 81
