Subsection of men to the so-called
twilight sleep" while being operated
upon has been tried in Chicago with
complete success. In one case piece
of mans shin bone was grated in
his skull. The shin bone has been
grated into various parts of the hu-
man body, but never before has it
been called upon to take the place of
the bone in the skull. In another case
the patient underwent an operation
for appendicitis while plunged in "twi-
light Sleep" During the operations
the patients suffered no pain, and up
on return to consciousness experienced
no feeling of sickness. Quite recently
twilight sleep" was introduced into
America, but already it has been
tried on large scale in New York
City, and with remarkable success,
and now its employment for alleviat-
ing the pains of childbirth is becom-
ing common.
In reply to an inquiry as to "What
has become of the old fashioned girl
who used to get bed quilts and fan
mel petticoats for wedding presents ?"
You saw her the other day coming
down the street, and somehow the
sight made you forget your business
errand and took you back down the
misty lane of yesterday-way back

'aisins in the center grew for little |

zig sunbonnets and bingham aprons.
She did not come tripping down the
treet like the gay young buds of this
!ge, but slowly and timidly she made
Ter way along. Nor was she CARRIED
n any of these new tangled creations.
IN her head, silvered by many win
ers's frosts, she wore quaint little
,onnet and her dress was one of
hose old black alapaca affairs of the
lash family album vintage ample
o conceal flannel petticoats galore,
nd at her throat was bit of lace
nd an old gold band pin, such as no
eweler carries now. 1t was well worn
ut you could still read the lettering
n it" Mother" A queer old figure,
es, for these days of ever changing
tyles, but you forget all this as you
'oked on her wrinkled, motherly face
nd caught the kindly CLEAN of her
yes from behind the gold trimmed
PEGS. All, there was so much of
oodness and sweetness and purity
nd graciousness there-so much of
and sympathy and divin-
~, that you felt yourself in the
resence of real royalty and in your
cart of hearts you murmured, "God
less her."
As hfe's unending stream flows on
nd weeks and years are here and
one, we keep on adding holidays to
Urn US from our beaten ways. We
ardly pass the grounding stage, till
ids and youth and maidens fair scent
ew excitement in the air, and 10, the
lails are filled with junk that shows
n arrow, shot kerplunk, right thro
bleeding paper heart, which rips our
ceilings all apart. From early Feb
lary until the feast of Valentine it
GEMS that every other day is some
hing special, in a way. Upon the
9Th we greet the morn, reminding
