the body ahead can be traced as a
source of spinal afft ction. DIR.
Bond said that he did not wholly
condemn the use of skates but
advised their moderate and super
viSed use and dwelt upon the advis-
ability of such open air play as
| developed the CHILD musculary.
This, he suggested, could be suf-
| ficiently diversified to meet all the
child's tsste for past-time. AS an
example of unnatural posture and
it's effects on the body DR.. Bond
cited the case of a travelling sales
man who for twelve years had been
sitting in the position with his back
against his own seat and his feet
upon the back of the seat in front
of him. He was practically q
functional wreck.
DR.. George Still breaks records
\
Famous osteopathic surgeon per-
formed 81 clinic and private oper-
atoms in six days. Feature of
work during the convention. Pat
tents came from all sections of the
country and all operations were
exceedingly successful.
Beginning with few private
operations on Saturday and Sun
day DR.. George A. Still made a
new record for the hospital this
week when he performed siXty-one
operations in six days.
Each morning beginning Monday
he performed, in addition to many
private cases, clinic operations for
the visiting osteopaths commencing
at seven O'Clock and continuing till
nine or ten, the patients coming
from all parts of the country. They
came from as far north as STRAIT
ford, Canada and as far South as
Cameon, Texas, the greatest num-
bers however being from Missouri,
Wisconsin, Indiana, Kansas, Iowa
and Illinois.
One remarkable feature of these
operations. as is the usual case
when DR. George Still does surgi-
cal work, is the fact that his only
assistant in the actual work during
the entire series was his own surgi-
cal nurse, Miss Cora Gottreu. 1t is
a we'll established fact that while
several doctors are at an advantage
in making diagnosis, the number of
assistants that can be used in act
ual open operating is necessarily
limited where a combination of
speed and skill are required.
In spite of the seriousness of a
number of these cases it speaks
we'll for the hospital that not only
have there been no fatalities in this
list but the same is true of the con-
siderable number of cases operated
on during the week by DR.. Geo.
Laughlin, DR.. r. K. Smith, and DR..
Otis Akin. Naturally credit for
such results must also be shared by
the corps of nurses under perfect
discipline, and of more than or
binary ability.

of Law and Politics.

WASHINGTON July 5.-Miss Jes-
sic woodrow Wilson, always the
chum and admirer of her father, the
President, has not departed from this
role in the circumstances surround
ing her selection OF a husband. Fol-
one thing Washington society has
discovered, with a collective gasp OF
surprise, that Francis Bowes Sayre
the man Of her choice. is a younger
replica Of her famous father, possess
ing the same asceticism Of counte-
nance, the same brow, nose, chin
eyes, and all
For another thing. Miss Wilson fol-
lows her father in laughing down the
time worn superstition regarding the
unluckiness Of thirteen. 1t matters
not to her that she will be the thir-
teenth White House bride in the
year 1913.
Admiration for Father Deep.
All Washington to-day. following
its discovery that Sayre possesses
something like the Wilson physiog-
nomy, is wondering whether that fact
had not a great deal to do with Miss
Jessie's capitulation to the young
lawyers suit. Her admiration for her
father is profound, as is that OF the
entire Wilson family.
Never did hero worship exist in so
marked a degree as in the family Of
the President, with the President as
the figure for alteration. And now,
after the first shock of discovery,
Washington society is beginning TO
pass the remark that 1t is nothing
but natural that a Wilson girl should
marry a man like her father.
Young Sayres career has been laid
along lines Identical with the early
career of the President A brilliant
college record, the reputation achiev-
ed OF scholar and a leader, a vigor-

PlungeS Off Fourth
Story; Spike Hooks
In His Pants; Saved
Thrown by Falling Plank, Man Hangs
Head Downward Until His
Rsscuers Arrive.

LOS ANGELES. July 5.-w. E.
Duffessy, a workman employed in the
construction Of the new Braley Build
ing at Pasadena, owes his life to the
strength of his overalls, which pre-
vented him from being hurled from
the fourth story of the building.
Duffessy was struck on the head by
a plank dropped by a workman on
the floor above him. He was thrown
down the improvised elevator shaft
headfirst, but after falling to the third
floor his Overalls caught on a pro-
truding spike and held him steadfast.
He remained in this position with
his head down until several work
men who witnessed the accident hur-
riedly made their way, with the aid
of a rope, to where he was hanging
and hauled him to a place Of safety.

Is Denied a Divorce Decree

Los ANGELES, July (Which ?
Marriage and the saving Of a human
life or refusal and the moral res7on-
sibility Of its loss?
This was the question Mrs. Dorothy
Lander, a pretty 20-year- old nurse,
faced in the operating room OF the
Clara Barton Hospital when she
agreed to become the wife OF Kirk c.
Lander, from whom she now seeks
her liberty.
She testified in Judge Monroe
court that she married Lander to save
his life.
This strange romance was reveale I
by the young woman as a witness In
her own behalf Her husband, shs
said, was a patient at the Clara Bar
ton Hospital. She was his nurse and
had attended him for ten days.
He suffered a relapse and an opera
ton was declared by the attending
physicians to be necessary to save his
life. He was placed upon the operat-
ing table, but refused to submit 10
the operation until he had seen his
nurse.
When she appeared, he told her that
he loved her-that life without her
was not worth living. II she prom
Used to marry him he would submit
to the operation necessary TO save his
life, he said, and II she refused he
would die.
The operation was successful and
two days later the couple were mar
ried. Mrs. Lander sought a divorce
on the grounds of non support, al
though she admitted that she had
never lived with her husband, who
contested the action.
Judge Monroe held that the young
woman had failed to make out a case
legally. Mrs. Lander was heartbroken
when the court denied the decree.

President Wilson's career has been
strangely intermingled with the sup

Miss Wilson is to become the thir-

Upon arrival at the Summer White
