NEW ZEALAND'S GUM MINES.
Gathering Harvest That Ripened
ACES and Ages Ago.

Gum digging in New Zealand offers
one of the most unusual and interest
ing forms of labor, partly because OF
the ease with which the work may be
carried on and partly because it is said
New Zealand is the only country where
gum digging is done.
Originally the gum which Is now
brought to light came from the kauri
tree, which is now scarce. but ages ago
great forests of 1t probably covered
most Of the northern part Of the
North island. These forests were swept
away by fire, and today the landscape
is mostly low brown hills with occa-
sional swamps. Gum burns very cas-
lily, but such as was covered by the
dank forest debris escaped the fire
Hardened and preserved through I'M
countable ages, this is the gum the
gum digger seeks today. By paying 3
shillings year he may wander and
dig where he likes over enormous areas
of government lands. All that Is re-
quired is a kind Of spear to locate the
gum, spade to dig 1t and bag to
put it in. At night 1t is scraped and
sorted, according to size and quality.
"In digging" says writer In Pear
sons Magazine. you enjoy all the ex
element of gambling without incur
ring the sin And then to work fol
yourself when you like, where you like
and how you like is delightful beyond
belief. Also you are free to live as
your fancy turns and to have as many
friends as you wish or as few"
! The climate Is pleasant. and the re
turns from the work. though moi
financially great. ranging from $1.75 9
day upward. are perhaps all that thu
enterprise warrants.

Rockefeller Institute Expert Found
That Secretins Organ of the Human
Body Retains Its Vitality, and Chi
caso Doctors Experiments Are
Based on That Fact.
The surgical world is awaiting the
result of remarkable operations per-
formed in Chicago on persons suffer
ing from dementia precox and in which
cases glands from dead persons were
transplanted to the patients.
These operations took place at the
Dunning State Hospital For the In
sane and were performed by DR.. G.
Frank Lydston, who has been work
ing on the idea of gland implantation
for fourteen years, and the discovery
Of DR.. Alexis Carrel Of the Rockefeller
institute in New York that some
glands live after death showed him
the way. The greater part of recent
medical and surgical research, the sur
geon said, has been directed to studies
of the various glands of the body the
functions Of which heretofore have not
been understood or have been under
stood only slightly.
Tissues Retain Vitality.
Particularly the thyroid gland and
the spleen have been under the micro
scope of research. DR.. Carrel has
found the tissues In them retain their
vitality long after what is known as
death.
DR.. Lydston was assisted in the last
two operations by DR.. George Leinin-
ger, superintendent Of the Dunning
hospital The patients are girl sew
enteen years old, who has been suffer
ing for two years. and woman. TWEEN
ty-six years. who has been insane for
FIVE years.
The Dunning operations followed an
announcement by DR.. Lydston that he
had performed a similar operation on
himself and also on woman fifty-six
years old.

now" said DR.. Leininger. land II we
see that the operations have been a
success We shall go right ahead and
cure more insane patients"
Glands Taken From Dead Girl.
In the operation on the seventeen
year-old girl DR.. Lydston implanted a
gland which was twin to one he i'm
planted in a woman fifty-nine years
old nearly a week before. This gland
had been kept in "cold storage" since
that time. Both the glands he used
and the one implanted In the woman
six days before were removed seven
days earlier from the body of an eight
year-old girl who had been killed
by fracture Of the skull.
DR.. Lydston believes that the glands
which he has implanted have the func-
ton Of supplying certain secretions to
the brain and nerve cells.

A Decided Acquisition.

E. A. Rasor, who for some time
past has led to victory the musical
forces of the Baptist church of this
city, is the new second tenor of the
popular organization known as the
Elks quartet, and right we'll does he
fill the role. Individually the several
members of a quartet may have
splendid voices, but unless there be
complete balance of tone, prompt at
tack and a sympathetic rendering Of
the music, as whole, the effects will
always fall short of the ideal in any
performance. Very happily Mr.. Rasor
supplies this missing link, as was
evidenced in the sacred concert given
in the Presbyterian church last even
ing, when in the two quartet numbers
allotted them Messrs. Briggs, Rasor
Norris and Strickland achieved the
best results from strictly musical
standpoint. In the duo, BE Glad, o

"The samples of the fruit that has
distinguished Ashland and for which

was eaten at once and some converted

ate almost too much of it, although

Sacred Concert at
Presbyterian Church

The last concert of the season,
which occurred at the Presbyterian
church Sunday night, was one of the
finest ever given. The choir was as
sisted by the Elks Quartet and the
effect was certainly pleasing.
Services started with hymn by
the whole congregation, followed by
a selection from the Elks Quartet,
Sc A Dream of Paradise" This was
a beautiful song and the quartet did
admirably, the voices blending to
beautiful perfection. Prayer followed
by the pastor, Rev. Carnahan. The
choir next gave an anthem, Come,
Sing Before the Lord" Succeeding
the anthem A. l.. Strickland gave a
solo entitled "a Hymn of Faith" +"
with his usual finish of voice.
The pastor delivered a sermonette
on Reverence and Irreverence, ,"
which, though short, was vital and to
the point. Following the sermon the
Elks Quartet appeared again with
their favorite song, Crossing the
Bar" after which J. S. MacMurray
gave one of his solos "Intermezzo,
by Mascagni. A duet followed by
Messrs. Rasor and Strickland, enti-
tied BE Glad, o Ye Righteous" 1t
was exceptionally fine, both voices
having exquisite harmony-Strick-
land possessing a fine-grained bari
tone and Rasor a well-trained sweet
tenor. One of the best numbers of
the evening succeeded the duet,
namely solo, quartet and chorus,
Onward, Christian Soldiers" by Mr..
Strickland, Elks Quartet and choir.
The benediction was given by Rev.
Carnahan. The evening services
were thoroughly enjoyed and the
]. 8. MacMurray was the mushical
director.

Ye Righteous" the voices of Messrs.
Rasor and Strickland as tenor and
baritone blended splendidly and the
enunciation and pronunciation were
such as to enable the listener to have
an intelligent understanding of the
text treated. Gifted as both singers
are. not only with decidedly musical
temperaments, an encouraging future
would-seem to be the portion of these
two yooalists. Mr. Stricklands solo
numbers were admirably given.
