Mr.. and Mrs. j. j. Heffrom of Stew

ated on in st. Michaels Hospital
Stevens Point, Saturday the 10th, for
a large fibroid tumor in the left
breast, and Notwithstanding her adj
vanced age, rs years, she withstood
the same wonderfully well, being able
to return home Sunday and is now
able TO sit up each day. Mrs. Coniff
was a sufferer from the tumor for the
past years but never made it known
to the members of her immediate
family until her life was threatened
with same and then an operation was
hardly considered advisable on ac-
count of her years. DIR. Rice of
Stevens Point however, urgedi an
operation, thinking it would prolong
her life and she wished to go to the
hospital al Stevens Point on account
of old acquaintance. Drs. Rice and
Lindores of Stevens Point and DR..
Daege from the Marshtield hospital,
performed the operation. Mrs. Con-
ifs case was considered most re-
markable, from the fact that she
suffered no pain after the operation
and her pulse and temperature stayed
around normal during the entire
time that she was at the hospital.
