Lead and the Teeth.

A tendency OF the teeth and gums to
absorb lead has been observed by Vik-
tor Hinze, a German dentist, among
the workers In an accumulation fac
tory. The teeth all had much tartar,
and that scraped from the teeth Of one
man affected with anemia and other
symptoms OF poisoning was found by
analysis to contain about One-half of
per cent OF metallic lead. Extracting
the seventeen teeth stin retained by
this man. the metallic lead In the
crowns was shown to be o.03S pei
cent and oe93 per cent In the roots
sufficient to give continuous lead into1

the teeth of the other workers, and

telegraph and wireless companies
bitterly oppose the erection of govern
ment wireless stations for commercial
use, and it is claimed by those who OBJ
ject to government extension Of this
means of commupication that to install
it for emergency purposes only would
involve a heavy expense.
Not only should the original cost Of
the installation be considered, but they
point out that there would be a tremen-
dous annual charge in the way Of sal
aries Of employees and upkeep.
AS an answer to these arguments,
administration officials and army and
navy officers call attention to the fact
| that IT is worth while for the govern
ment TO spend money to be prepared
for an emergency such as now exists.
| Just as the army and navy are main
tanned in preparation for war.
In other words, a chain OF stations
would be an insurance for the benefit
Of those in distress, as we'll as for
/ the business interests.
Postmaster General Burleson said
yesterday that the suggestion in refer
ence to the election of wireless sta
tons throughout the country is worthy
Of careful consideration. The post
master general is impressed with the
inadequacy of the present telegraph
system and believes that far better
results to the people could be obtain
ed IL it were taken over by the gov
eminent.
II may be expected he will recon

Science Says 1t Is Imperfect Because
Man Walks Upright.
According to the osteopathist. you do
not have a perfectly formed spinal col
umn. for he is firmly convinced that
no person in the world has a back that
is perfect. His ideal is a spine Of a
particular curve. whose twenty-four
bones are at equal distances apart, of
the same formation on both sides and
equally distant from the sides Of the
body.
The child's spine is much nearer nor
NAL and far Straighter than the adults,
and the society woman who does no
work is more likely TO have a back
whose curve comes nearer the ideal
than the college athlete. The spines OF
strong men. such as the labOrer or
pugilist, are most defective, for the
reason that constant pull and strain
on the spinal column accentuate its
weaknesses. The IgOrrOtes, strong as
they are. have weaker and more crook
ed spineS than civilized men.
The spines of lower animals are
stronger and more normal than OUTS

SURGEONS TELL
YARNS OF BIG
mat OPERATIONS

Atlanta, Dec. 1S.-How a man was
stabbed through the heart, and had his
heart sewed up, and now lives to tell
the tale, was recounted by a LEADING,
surgeon at the big surgical congress
now in progress in Atlanta.
1t is the rarest and most dramatic
feature of the week, and the details
make the operation almost a miracle
to the lay mind. Just think of man
stabbed to the heart in street row,
late at night rushed to the charity ward
of the big hospital, with cash in his
chest and his hearts blood squirting
out; a clear-headed surgeon prizes open
the wound in the mans chest, sews u?
the slit in the heart with cat-gut, the
heart beating all the while; and be
hold the stricken man is dragged back
from the very gates of death.
The patient was only poor day lab
orer, but the operation made surgical
history, and will be recounted In tt 1t
books for a century to come.
The marvel about the operation IS
that, according to the big surgeons, any
surgeon of ordinary ability can per-
form it. provided the patient is reach
ed in time, and provided, of course,
the wound in the heart is not too
large.

RAYMOND PLACE
near AMERICUS
i SOLD YESTERDAY
4 SNOWFLAKE IN SUMTER
Beautiful Orchard of $4,000
PeaChtreeS

The Raymond farm and magnificent
peach orchard of 125,O00 trees, has just
been sold by the Raymond estate, and
while it is known that the considera
ton was high up in the thousands of
dollars, the exact price has not been
given out. The purchaser of this
splendid place is Mr.. C. B. Bond, who
has resided upon the place during sew
eral years. H. 1E.
The Raymond Orchard" as it is ia
military known, Is six miles out of
Americas, and the Andersonvillc-
brownsville highway runs through the
center of it, with vast stretches of
peach trees of selected varieties upon
either side
The orchard of 1000 acres, formerly
q cotton plantation, was purchased sc =
eral years ago by Mr.. C. P. Raymond,
of Dayton, Ohio. He planted the en-
tire area in fine peach trees, and the
Raymond orchard has since been one
OF the show places in Sumter. The trees
are of selected varieties and the or
chard has always been considered
very profitable investment.
Mr. Bond, it is said, will improve the
orchard and make of it more than ever
an object of attraction and source of
profit in the canning and shipping of
peaches.
