APPENDICITIS HIS TOPIC.
Viennese Specialist Says Disease

Viennese Specialist Says Disease
VIII Never BE Eliminated.
Vienna, June 2.-Dr. Hans Salzer, a
viennese specialist, delivered a lecture
on appendicitis the other day before the
Vienna Medical Society. DR.. Salzer does
not think appendicitis will ever be en-
tirely eliminated, although owing to skill
full treatment mortality from it has al
ready been reduced to about 8 per cent
in the case of adults. Appendicitis in
children much oftener ends fatally. the
mortality here ranging from Is to 30 per
cent.
The faculty, said DR.. Salzer, is making
very strenuous efforts to combat this
death rate. He secuted the idea that in
the case of children the vermiform ap
pendix being an undeveloped organ is
larger in proportion to the length Of the
caecum than in the case Of adults and
is therefore more subject to Inflammation.
He also denies that appendicitis is more
difficult to diagnose in children unless
they are of very tender age, say under
two years.

DanvlIIe Judge Orders Prosecutor to

Danville, Ill.-Judge Kimbrough in
the circuit court handed down de-
cision in the case of City Attorney
Jones, who declined to answer certain
questions regarding vote selling and
buying which the grand jury put to
him.
The court instructed Jones to an
swer all questions. The opinion stated
that. according to decision OF the
Supreme court of the United States,
witness before the grand jury is
immune from indictment. The court
also held that the city election law is
unconstitutional which means that
Jones cannot be questioned about hap
penings more than eighteen months
ago.
This means that the investigation
will continue until all the witnesses
now summoned are examined. 1t Is
said that many indictments have been
voted, but whether they are for vote
selling is not known.

The pretty daughter of physician

She explained all this to her lover
the other night.

The young man sighed. Then it's
all over?" he murmured, with gloomy

MISTAKE OF BRIDES

II 10 Greatly to Be
pepiored.

"Why is 1t that girls who are consid-
cred sweet-tempered and agreeable
before marriage often develop into
arbitrary and self-assertive brides7"
This question was asked by mother
'in-law. and is worthy Of comment.
1t may be urged that this girl be-
fore marriage set a watch upon her
lips and tried to be agreeable. The
unmarried girl has SO much more to
gain by pleasant personal qualities
than a married woman has, for unless
girls make themselves pleasant and
obliging they are apt to be left out
when parties are being arranged and
to be abandoned to their solitary fate
by those who would be their allies.
Since girls are not expected to re-
turn as much hospitality as they re-
ceive. they must Of necessity depend
upon their personal qualities for In
vitations. On the other hand. mar
ried woman who gives parties gets
asked In return, whether she Is agree
able or not.
Again, the bride is apt to foster an
exaggerated idea of her own import

Before marriage she had to get her
mothers consent to most of her pro-
ceedings-to the Invitations she &C

The sudden freedom from restraint
and the Indulgence of husband are
apt to spoil her character and make
her disagreeable to her relatives, es-
pecially to those on his side Of the
house, and immensely patronizing to
her old friends. particularly those
who have remained unmarried.
Another reason why some girls
tempers are spoiled by marriage lies
in the trials and annoyances to which
a girl with number Of relations is
subjected. It is hard to please crit
