Laziness a Disease.

Laziness should be regarded as a dis
ease when no organic cause of Ill
health exists, and people should be
compelled to get through their allotted
work as they would have to take their
powders of quinlne If they were suf-
ferlng from Influenza. There are
scores of self plying loafers on the
sick list of every doctor who need, not
drugs, not Treatment of any sort,
but simply work. To prescribe rest
cures for this type is directly melting
them to n lazy life, when their dissat-
isfactlon, general seediness and lack
OF vitality are the direct outcome or
having too little to do already. 1t Is
not more rest that they require, but
compulsory, methodlcal, regulated work
six days out Of seven. Work Is the
best medicine In the world, the Ideal
stmulant, because It leaves no III ef-
fects.-London Express.

Andrew Carnegie told the following

battle on the other side Of the Atlantic,
but when the tide of prosperity turned
with the son he remembered his IA

clear 1t off, together with It's accumu-
lated interest. He started by remit
ting the sum OF f20 and for several
years sent the same amount a dlvi-
dend equal to exactly 100 per cent.
Returning to Scotland, the Pittsburgh
ironmaster met his old relative.
"Well," said Mr.. Carnegie, "having
paid up n good deal Of the interest, /
should like now to clear off the princi-
pal"
"Ay, ay, Andrew, dinna ye fash yer

ANCIENT SURGERY.
They Used q File In Trepanning Op.
erations In Hippocrates' Time.

There is no doubt that some rough
form Of surgery must have existed
from very ancient times. but 1t Is
strange to find that so complex and
delicate an operation as trepanning Is
one OF the Oldest
So far as actual records go, Hippo
crates gives US the earliest account.
He wrote treatises on fractures, dislo-
cations and wounds of the head, In
which he described the method OF pro-
cedure to be followed In the case Of a
fractured skull. His direction was TO
cut away a piece Of bone so that the
pressure on the brain might be re-
lieved.
There are also records about this
time and later Of a file being used for
this purpose, which at q time when
anaesthetics were undreamed Of must
have been, to say the least, painful.
According to DR.. T. Rice Holmes, the
operation Of removing pieces Of bone
was performed long before historic
times. The effects on the skull are
easily seen after death and are visible
so long as the bones are preserved.
From inspection Of certain skulls OF
the later stone age In ancient Britain
DR.. Holmes has come to the conclusion
that some of these had undergone the
operation, which must have been per-
formed with a stone implement.-Lon-
