The heroism of Senator Luke Lea
of Tennessee in saving his wife's life
through the TRANSMISSION of blood has
attracted widespread attention.
Senator Lea has been reluctant 10

O'Clock in the afternoon until after 6
o'clock. but the actual TRANSMISSION of
blood lasted only about an hour aud
a half. The rest of the time was TAX
en- up in sewing up the bandages.
The surgeons tell me that the artery
which was severed will never work
again. but l reckon can get along
without it. 1t seems that II was de-
stroyed by the operation But they
tell me l have another artery in the
same arm which will supply sufficient
blood to the hand. This extra artery
must be supplied for just such an
emergency, as the surgeons tell me my
hand will be just as strong as ever
The operation was. of course. pain
full and for time made me i'll. hut in

the discomfort and pain to me amount
ed to absolutely nothing 1t was just
such a sacrifice as every husband is
more than willing to make"
The operation was continued until
the pulses of both the senator and his
wife were the same. When the opera
ton was started Senator Lea's pulse
was 10 and his wife's was $50. 1t WAS
continued until the pulse of both was
about 1870. In the interval about
quart Of the senator's blood went into
Mrs. Lea's veins.
1t was from Senator Lea that the fact
was learned for the first time that all
during the operation. while his life's
blood was slowly passing into Mrs.
Lea's body, he was conscious. His for
ttude in face of the extreme pain
which it is known he must have suf-
fered is still being commented on by
physicians and nurses at the hospital.

association of fifteen or twenty stu

Bees Double Stomach.

The bee has two distinct stomachs.
In the first it stores away the honey 1t
so industriously gathers up from the
flowers until such time as II is ready
to yield it up, while the other stomach
is used simply and solely for digestion
purposes. Thus the food and the honey
are never mixed. When the bee re-
turns to the hive and is ready to de-
posit the honey 1t has gathered 1t
contracts the muscles of the stomach,
by which act the honey is elected

What Nothinu Is

If any man thinks that he can con-
reive well enough how there should be
nothing, l will engage that what he
means by nothing is as much some
thing as anything that he ever thought
of in his life, and l believe that if he
knew what nothing was it would be
intuitively evident to him that it could
not be. Absolute nothing is the ag-
gregate of all the contradictions in the
world.-Jonathan Edwards.
