APPENDICITIS PLAGUE COMING

Prominent Physician Says in a Few
Years Everyone Will Be Affected.
From the Chicago Journal.
The United States is fast becom-

This was the assertion today of
DR.. Jabez Jackson, prominent sur
geon and member of the American
Medical Association, during a discus
sion regarding abdominal surgery.
According to the present statis-
tics, declared DR.. Jackson. lit will
only be a few years until everyone
IN the country is affected with an
pendicitis and undergo an operation
IN order to prevent death. "
AS a practicing physician and sur
geon in New York and the south for
a number of years DR.. Jackson has
made a speciality of abdominal sur
gerry and has performed a great num-
per OF appendicitis OperatiOns-more
IMAM any other surgeon in the coun-
try, some say.
High living, winning and dining

some or the causes attributed by DR..

that we are. In fact, it has been
scientifically determined that we are
living too high. And that is one of
the greatest causes of appendicitis.
the malady which is bound to grin
everybody in this country if the CON

Now, this idea of after-theatre
suppers causes as much appendicitis
as anything else. What chance has
a mans stomach and appendix when
he persists in loading himself M
with rich foods late at night? None
at all. AS a rule the appendix is
one portion of the human anatomy

A Birthday Party.

A pretty party was that given by
little Miss Olive Ruggles Saturday
afternoon to celebrate her eighth
birthday. Miss Olive, in a dainty
lingerie dress, made a charming lit
tie hostess, welcoming each little
guest in a most cordial manner.
Many jolly games were played on
the lawn, the bright happy faces
of the children showing their pleas
ure. After quite awhile spent there
they were invited into the dining
room, where the scene resembled
fairyland. The room was darkened,
and lit only by the soft glow from
japanese lanterns hung from ropes
of asparagus ferns suspended from
the center of the room to each cor
ner. The mantel and cabinets were
banked with ferns and flowers At
each end of the table were handsome
silver candelabra filled with red and
green candles, the colOrs used in the
decorations. From the center of the
room, out of a mist of fern, hung
a large crimson bell, and under this
was placed the birthday cake, sur
rounded by eight candles. Around
this was banked delicious fruits, con-
sisting of crimson checked peaches,
luscious grapes and fine apples. At
each place little china hats filled with
candies, souvenirs of the occasion,
were placed. After cream and cake
had been enjoyed they repaired to
the lawn, where fruits were served.
Mrs. Clifton dispensed fruit punch
during the afternoon from a hand
some silver tankard, which had been
in the family for more than a hun
dred years. At the close of a merry
afternoon the little guests departed,
all joining in wishing for Miss Olive
many returns of the happy day.
