ARTIFICIAL EYEBALL OF GOLD
Surgical Feat That Is the Most Diff
cult Performance Known to
the Profession.

Gold. for the first time in the his
tory of ocular science, has been sub
stituted for the natural jellylike sub
stance in which an artificial eye is
ordinarily set. In an operation at the
Jefferson hospital at Philadelphia
gold was used TO form the eyeball.
with the result that the glass eye
has all the appearance of a real eye.
The fixed and stony stare which fol-
lows the insertion of a glass eye Is
replaced by the life and light asso-
ciated with the sparkling eye of ma
ture. This surgical feat, one of the
most difficult of performance known
to the practise. is considered by spe-
cialists as unique in the annals of
marvellous operations.
William ~Senseman, a fifteen-year-
old boy of Buffalo, is the person who
is now carrying gold In his eye with
the same composure as he might car
ry that precious metal in his teeth.
Ten days ago he was playing In
the basement of his home. With a
Ratchet he struck the concrete floor
ing. The cement was shattered and
one of the bits flew into his eye. The
tiny bit of cement panied his eye for
a time, but as the pain soon vanished.
the boy and his parents thought that
the particle had been naturally dis
lodged.
Unfortunately, the sight of that eye
! grew fainter and fainter. Then one
day the boy realized that blindness.
total blindness, had set in.
The boy and his parents came to
the Jefferson hospital. The X-ray
| failed to locate the particle. Mathe-
NAUTICAL methods were then employed.
and the exact position of the bit of
cement was determined.
Then an incision was made. so that
the magnet could be used to draw IL
out. But the magnet had no attrac-
ton for the cement and that plan
failed. Blood poisoning was feared.
and 1t was necessary to remove the
whole aye.
To this the boy and his parents OBJ
jected on the ground that a glass
eye was so conspicuous. Thereupon
the surgeons were inspired to at
tempt the daring operation by which
the golden eyeball was set In the
empty socket. Then the glass eye,
OF pupil, was fitted carefully into
the golden ball.
The trained observation Of the spe-
ciahst would be required to detect the
real from the false eye.

Great Saving Of Time and Lace e.

Otiifty OF the Cream separator.
Those who have never used a cream
separator do not know Of its actual
value In dairy work. One great econ
omy in using the cream separator in
summer Is the small space required to
keep the product to be saved. The
separating is done Immediately after
milking. and all of the skim milk not
wanted for household use is fed to the
calves. pigs or poultry.
There Is no trouble In storing II
away for the cream to rifs and no
large number of milk vessels to clean
and handle. The separator, of course,
must be cleaned. but the work OF
cleaning Is not nearly so great ss
the work OF cleaning all the milk yes.
