During recent years the growing
tendency toward surgical interference
to cure disease has been a subject of
unfavorable comment both in and out
of the medical profession. 1t has be-
come the general belief that many
practitioners are too ready to resort to
the knife. For this reason opinions Of
prominent surgeons, as expressed at
the congress recently held in Chicago,
commend themselves as evidence of a
saner professional view These sur
geons announce that the reaction has
set in, and that the drift is away from
operations and toward greater de-
pendence upon medicine. AS the ideas
acquired at this congress will be i'm
pressed on the profession all over the
country the effect of the discussions
should be generally apparent. Let us
hope that surgeons will bear in mind
the advice of men eminent in their
profession, who protest against Oper-
atoms that are not absolutely neces-
sary, says the Chicago Daily Journal.
While the splendid achievements Of
modern surgery inspire admiration it
should not be forgotten that its re-
sources are designed to be used only
when less radical treatment proves un-
availing.

SAVING THE BIRDS.

The Audubon societies of the coun-
try have just been holding their annu-
al meeting in New York AS a result
of a campaign extending over the last
decade, they report that bird-life is
each year becoming safer and public
cooperation more effective. The as
sociation is responsible for the New
York plumaga law which prohibits the
sale of the feathers of many native
birds, as we'll as those of related spe-
cies abroad, and which has proved an
important check on dealers engaged
in the feather traffic The association
has also been active in guarding the
many colonies of aigrette- bearing
birds along the east and south Allan
tic coast. During the past year the
associated societies have spent, in the
course of their benefcent work, some
$780, 00-money we'll laid out, as it
gives countercheck to the thought
lessness of fashion, the greed Of bust
ness and the cruelty of both.

BALD HEADS NOT WANTED
Badness is too Generally Considered a
Sign of Advanced Age.

OASh "a <AOtdACC0 age
A bald headed person does not nave
an equal chance with one blessed with
a healthy head of hair, because bald
ness is too generally accepted as an
indication of age. Many large
corporations have established an age
limit. and refuse to take men over 30
years of age as new employees.
Probably 65 per cent of bald headed
people may regain good head of
healthy hair if they will follow our
advice and accept our offer. We have
a remedy that we positively guarantee
to grow hair on any head. unless the
roots of the hair are entirely dead,
their follicles closed, and the scalp
has become glazed and shiny. We
want people to try this remedy at our
risk, with the distinct understanding
that unless it does exactly what we
claim it will, and gives satisfaction
in every respect, we shall make no
charge for the remedy used during the
trial.
We know exactly what we are
talking about. and vita this offer
back of our statements no one should
scott, doubt our word, or hesitate to
put our remedy to an actual test
We want every one in Lancaster
who is suffering from any scalp or
hair trouble, dandruff, falling hair,
or badness to try our Rexall '93''
Hair Tonic. We want them to use it
regularly until th1"e bottles
have been used-and if it does not
eradicate dandruff. cleanse and refresh
the scalp. tighten the hair in its roots,

England has suddenly awakened to
a realization of the fact that 50 per
cent. of Canadian postgraduate stu
dents go to American or German uni
versities to complete their education.
Naturally she wonders why such sit
uation exists. Are not Oxford and
Cambridge the equals of any foreign
institutions? They are, indeed, but
they take no particular pains to let
any one know it, says the Boston
Transcript Clinging to their old con-
sentative traditions, they are about
century behind the rest of the world
in the matter of publicity, and have
never been known to set forth the op-
portunities they offer for advanced
work. On the other hand, foreign uni
versities not only advertise themselves
extensively, but they even grant fell
lowships to postgraduate students,
often awarding them on the nominal
ton of the college sending the stu
dent.

A NEOLITHIc VILLAGE.

What is thought to be neolithic
walled village has been discovered
near the main road between Harrogate
and Bolton abbey, at a spot few
miles from Otley, by w. Storey OF
Fewston, member of the Royal Arch
geological society Of Great Britain and
Ireland. The discovery may be divid-
ed into two parts, says the London
Times. In a cell behind hill are
twenty-four stone circles, varying in
diameter from twenty to three feet,
the whole being surrounded by evil
dences of stone wall. One Of the
stone circles was a well, and two 9th
ers are indisputably iron-smelting fur
naces. A number Of stone implements,
which experts ascribe to the neolithic
period, have been found. On site
above the village is a twenty-foot
stone circle, commanding a magnificent
view for miles down the valley and
evidently at one time used as a look
out. On the other side of the hill
are two stone circles connected by a
huge stone slab a small stone circle
filled with smaller circles about
eighteen inches in diameter and two
feet deep, containing charcoal, and
two large circular erections, supposed
to have been used as place of wor-
ship and a crematorium.

If every man and woman of fair un-
derstanding and open mind would read
every Sunday morning the fifth chap
ter of Matthew, which is the sermon
on the mount, containing the beati-
tudes, this world would be happier
than it is. One need not stop to dis
cuss the doctrine of it, but just let the
sweet spirit of it get into his life, as
he lets the view of fine landscape,
or glorious sunset, or the heavens
filled with stars, get into his soul, and
it will put him in harmony with the
all-pervading truth that ruleth all
things, and will spread vision be-
fore him that he never saw before.
There is the best truth in the uni
verse; better than one will find in the
sciences, the arts, the PHILOSOPHERS,
the histories, and truth that one does
not have to struggle to get, but
which comes to him as freely as the
light goes into his eyes. All he has
to do is to open his eyes, and there it
is.
