Clean clothing is another summer

Plain cleanliness is to be chosen In

But poor dolly She did not seem to

Finally the day came when he de-

she did not know what to do. There

And wasn't she careful7 She walk

Poor Betty, She had tried to be

tremendous frown that scared the
wits nearly out OF her. You viii

So Betty stayed in the house.
Pinkeyes watched her like hawk.

every time she moved He did not
know what he was doing himself.
You had better leave off nagging
Betty. and watch your own work.
Fluff finally picked up courage TO
say. Pinkeyes turned on her In a
rage. but she had already left the
room.
She came In on her next trir with
her arms full of eggs.
She walked past MIN. but Just then
he made a movo at Betty.
Look out there, stiff legs. he
cried. you're about to spill but
he never finished. Just ar that mo-

the whole mixture for five minutes. To

Those who oppose surgical fnterfer-

Upon the fact that appendicitis is a

seen engage in a battle with the

appear, and under proper condition

Removal Only Sure Cure.
But 1t is plain that a man who has
once had appendicitis has proved that
MS appendix is liable to the disease
ana that. In consequence. his chances Of
having 1t again are above the average.
The only man who is certainly pro-
tected against 1t is he who has lost
MS appendix. When the leucocytes are
defeated in their battle. and there is
no surgical interference, the diseased
appendix becomes more and more in
named, and the number Of germs in II
increases innumerably. Finally they
break through its walls. and are scat
tered broadcast through the abdominal
cavity. Here they find Immediate lodg-

whole contents of the cavity. These
poisons then disable the heart and
brain, and the patient dies.

about 40 persons in every million die of

age is higher, and in other districts il
is lower. In Germany, Austria, and
England II is decidedly less prevalent.
A few years ago II was the universal
opinion, among the laity. that appendi-

or similar substances. Recent re-
search scarcely bears out this notion.
True. enough. 1t Is common to find for
eign bodies in diseased appendices, but
these things have actually
caused the preliminary irritation. or
have merely had their entry into the
appendix facilitated by conditions al
ready existing. is a matter for debate.
1t is known, however. that severe
blows over the appendix occasionally |
cause appendicitis. The resultant injury |
affords stray germs a lodgment. such !
as a scratch on the face affords a |
chance for germs to settle down and
produce a boil, and after while gen.
eral Inflammation is in progress, and |

England are holding up their
country to the scorn and derision
of the world. While Englishmen
are learning to fear. hate and
despise the methods which women
in their country are employing to
secure alleged rights" Ameri-
cans are constantly increasing
their respect and admiration for
the women Of their nation.
That is the difference between
the situations presented in the two
countries. True a large majority
OF English women are not in SYM
pathy with the militant suffra-
Gettes, but there is also a very
large proportion who are not en-
gagged in any orTaniZed effort to
better conditions. American
women OF all classes and walks
Of life are banded together for the
beneficent purpose OF making
this a better country to live in,
through improved social. intel
lectuai and moral conditions. The
splendid womanhood OF every
State IN the sisterhood is united
for these great objects. and is be-
coming moro and more one Of the
great vital forces in the nations
life The difference is one OF
which all Americans may Justly
