ternoon.

hers of the church. in which he was a
deacon and active worker. 1t is thought
that he entered the building fof the
purpose of getting ready for the Sum
day service. He was extremely de-
vout, and from the position of his body.
IL is likely that he had knelt in prayer
and had been seized while on his knees.
His face was against the floor, but his
limbs were drawn up in such manner
as to bear out this theory.
The aged man was missed from his
homo late Thursday afternoon. and an

JOHNSON'S HEART
IS ON WRONG SIDE
Organ Perfectly Normal, but 1t
Isn't Where 1t Ought
to Be.
OWNER OFTEN WONDERED
Felt 1t Beating on Right Side
and Doctor Finally Makes
Discovery.

Though he had lived thirty eight
years under the impression that his
Maker had formed him as other people
stephen S. Johnson. n painter by occu-
patton. was Informed yesterday by DIR
NJ. l.. Boyle, one Of tho internes at the
City Hospital. that his heart was OF
the right side. There is nothing the
matter with the heart 1t Is just the
Same rs any other heart. except that
somehow. it got into the wrong place
and has been there ever since.
Occasionally. so Johnson told DR..
Boyle. he felt 1t beating and wondered
why its throbS seemed to be on the
right side of the body when ones car
diac organ was supposed to be on the
left side. But it didn't trouble him
1t loved and suffered like any other
heart: 1t felt JOY and sorrow and the
ether emotions of which the heart is
popularity supposed to be tho seat, and
pumped blood regularly and methodi-
cally into all parts of the body.
Discovered by Doctor.
Johnson might never have llnow,
that he was formed differently from
ether men had he not suffered a slight
ailinent and gone to the City Hospital
on Wednesday to receive medical treat.
ment DIR. Boyle examined him thor.
oughly, and found to his surprise that
me space generally reserved for the
feart was vacant. and that the organ
was on the other side. He examined il
thoroughly, and found it normal in
every respect, and capable of perform
ing its functions up to the standard.
Medical science shows that such cases
are not very rare, though the public
usually does not hear OF them Tho
heart is generally as normal as though
II were on the left side. and the owne,
OF right-sided heart does not fee
me dlherence, or. rather, perhaps, he
could not feel the difference. neve,
having had his heart on the proper
side.

What Mr.. White Thinks.

VIM Allen White, editor of the En-
poria, e Kan.) Gazette, expresses him
self on the modern style Of Women's
dress in the following plain English:
That's some dress you've got on,
little grit sure is. That delicate,
clinging. crinkly stuff is the prettiest
cloth on the store counters; that Per-
sian silk sash of many eolors SO very
gracefully swashed about the center
section of You're anatomy would knock
the spots off Joseph's coat. You are
corseted and tailored according to the
most extreme model in the advance
August fashion books.
But your neck is too low and your
sleeves are too short, and your skirt is
far away tighter than skirts ever were
intended to be. And that graceful slit
exposing your dainty left ankle shows
stocking above your pump that is al
most transparent enough to read
through, And you haven't any more
petticoat than a rabbit you know you
haven't.
Oh, you're come swell. you are.
Have you noticed how the loafers
around the grove rubber at you as you
trip demurely by on your way to the
uplift lectures? And have you been
thinking little foolish one, that they
have been rubbering out Of pure adj
miration? Consult your brother. If
he's got any sense he'll tell you some
things that will be hard on your vanity
and good for your seul, And if you've
got any sense you'll take his word for
it; you'll lay that dress away and don
something that is wide enough around
the bottom to allow room for two petit
coats and one pair of legs.
For there never was dress designed,
little girl. that is half SO beautiful as a
young girls modesty.
