EASY TO EXAMINE THE LUNGS
Physicians Now Enabled to Perform
Rare Operations With the New
Bronchoscope.

An instrument known as the bron'
choscope has been introduced at the
Medico.C hirurgical hospital, Philadel.
phia, to aid in the examination Of the
lungs and to remove foreign sub
stances therefrom.
The bronchoscope is U-shaped. One
of the legs is hollow and is surmount-
ed by a small mirror and an electric
light. To remove a foreign body from
the lungs, the hollow leg is inserted
in the mouth and permitted to pass
down the throat until it reaches the
vocal chords. With the aid of the
mirror and light on the outer end an
examination of the lungs is then made
and the foreign substance located.
This done, small steel tweezer 's
passed through the hollow tube and
the offending particle removed.
DR.. R. s. Skllern and his five as
sistants In the nose and throat de-
partment Of the institution are skilled
in the manipulation Of the broncho-
scope, and have been performing some
rare operations. Such things as col
lar buttons. screws, safety pins. chick

Didn't Think Much Of Lecturer,

A wellknown Boston lecturer was
to give one of his lectures in a west.
ern city in which he had sister who
had family of several children. He
was the guest of his sister, and his
nephew, a lad Of nine or ten years,
wanted to attend the lecture. To this
his uncle said:
Il don't think that my lecture would
interest you, Harold. You would be
much better off at home and in bed.
Now if you will stay at home and go
to bed. will give you dollar, which
is the price of ticket to the lecture"
"A dollar!" said the boy with a
gasp. why, uncle. it surely can't be
worth all that! guess that fifteen
cents will be enough for you to pay
me. Don't you suppose that that will
be as much as it will be ?"-u.

LANCE TO COACH
IN BASE RUNNING
will Teach Veterans and Re.
cruits in Art Of Getting Un-
der Way"

" CHICAGO. ILL.,, Feb. l.-Bin Lange,
former West Side idol. is coming back
mot as a player or manager, but as
coach extraordinary to instruct recruit
and veteran White Sox' athletes In the
finer points Of base running during the
ten-day stay Of Callahan's athletes at
Paso Robles next month. Manager Cal
of the South End team made this an
nouncemert, following the receipt Of Q
letter from the former big league star.
No sooner had he perused the inter-
esting missive than Callahan was busy
wrestling with typewriter, turning out
an answer to his former mate. Cal
elaborated on how much he expects to
accomplish during the brief training
stay at Paso Robles and thanked "Bin''
profusely for offering his services to
the White Sox cause. He has played
little or no ball since quitting the West
Side team in 1ssss but this will not les
sen his value as coach.
When at his best Lange was regard
ed as the greatest of all base runners.
He uusally topped the list OF stolen bas-
ting. even hitting for .33e In his last sea-
sen IN lSsS his DdSe running aDIlty
was a natural gift, which made
II easy for him TO call the turn" on
a pitcher. Right today Jim Callahan
follows much the, same course. and II
was this that made him a good man on
the bases in 1910 and 1911. when he came
back after long lay-off. As for
Lange's fielding ability. it needs no
mention.
1t Is because of his natural style that
Callahan thinks Lange will be of un-
told value to the White Sox. He can
instruct the Youngsters and several Of
the older men in the art of sliding into
bags. Show them the way to lead or
from bag and how to detect cunning
moves by clever pitchers. His knowl-
edge of how to field will likewise be of
value to the men on the Sox list, es-
peciaily Lord. WHO'S whS IS Just learning that
