SURGERY IN ANCIENT TIMES
Hlppecrates Wrote Of the Operation
Of Trepanning-Use Of Stone
implements.

There is no doubt that some rough
form of surgery must have existed
from very ancient times, but it is
strange to find hat so complex and
delicate ap operation as trepanning
is one Of the oldest.
So far as actual records 60, Hip
pocrates gives us the earliest account.
He wrote treatises on fractures, dis
locations and wounds of the head,
in which he described the method Of
procedure to be followed in the case
of a fractured skull. His direction
was to cut away a piece Of bone 50
hat the pressure on the brain might
be relieved.
There are also records about this
time and later Of a file being used
for this purpose, which at a time
when a~nesthetics 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 his.
toric times. The effects on the skull
are easily seen after death and ART
visible so long as the bones are pre-.
served.
From inspection Of certain skulls
Of the later stone age in ancien.
Britain DR.. Holmes has come to tn,
conclusion that some of these haC
undergone the operation, which mus
have been performed with a ston,
implement.

HANDY o o MARKER.

Nothing hurts a book more, es-
pecially a new book, than laying
it down open to keep the place. In
stead of doing that, if you are liable
to interruption in your reading, get
a stout rubber band and cover it
with ribbon, gathering full enough
to permit the bands stretching,
Then when you need to lay it down
it takes hardly a second to stretch
the band and slip beneath it the
pages read Upon taking it up
again you find your place automatic
ally, moreover, the book mark cannot
get lost. Take care to have the band
strong enough to hold and big
enough not to mar the ends of the
cover.

PANHANDLERs ARE THwARTED.

Manager Gus Hartz was standing
near the opera house box office when
one of two panhandlers who had en-
tered the lobby approached him, and
holding out an addressed and sealed
envelope, begged for the price of a
postage stamp. "It's for me mud
der, boss, he sniveled. "Youse
wouldn't turn down er guy fer
de price er de stamp, would
youse?" "Never," said the man
ager, deftly grasping the en-
velope and throwing it through the
box Office window. "Here, Fred" adj
dressing himself to Treasurer Fred
Coan, STAMP this and have it
nailed" The velocity Of the pro-
ceeding fairly took the p~anbo6dler's
breath away. Then, backing away
to where his partner awaited him,
he whispered, "Nothin' doing, bo-
the guys wise."-Cleveland Leader.
