Is Appendicitis a Hoax
 or a New Disease?

It mas not been many years ago when the word appendicitis was unknown. nor was any such disease described by medi- : cal writers
 For hundreds of years anatomists had been exploring the human body and had not Tailed to find and describe the ap- pendix. but neither anatomist nor phy- siologist had ever declared its funo- ton
 Hundreds and thousands of huma n bodies had been dissected in medical colleges. and thousands upon thou sands of post mortem laparotomies had been made by physicians and surgeons Yet strange to say, not one case of death from Liberated or bursted appendix, had ever been detected and mentioned by any author whose writ inss were known prior to the outbreak of the present prevailing "epidemic" hoax or fad now so popular and re- munerative to surgeons Nor have we any records until within the most recent years, of attempts of surgeons to cure every kind of belly ache. by ext1rpating that poor little function less, unoffending pendulous mem brane. which is now so widely exploited by the Barnum like exploiters of that little obscure pedicle, the vermiform appendix and who find in its extirpation a source of much revenue
 Now isn't 1t strange, if the appendix Is truly the source of so much malign- ant danger as appears, by the necessity of so many thousands of operations nowadays. that all the anatomists physiologists. demonstrators, prosec- tors and students in thelr researches failed for hundreds of years to dis cover and make mention of the fact? But there must of course, be some foundation and cause. besides that of money getting, for the prevailing fad Of our modern surgeons.
 Now we do not deny that if Is nos- sible for the appendix to become dis eased and require trea tment and in .x- tremely rare cases that it might need eNtirpation. In fact, there is in this clty very intelligent. honest and sin cere physician, who says he has seen five hundred appendicitis operations and believes that two of them were actually necessary. Maybe he is cor rect ill his conclusion, but everybody knows or could know by investigation. that the thousands of such operations bcing done and the hundreds of lives DeAns annually sacrificed thereby, that tie remedy Is far more dangerous and 1atai than the disease.
 With these facts and with many more that we can produce we cheer fully invite every man or woman who may be advised by a doctor to sub init to an operation for appendicitis. diseased ovaries. or hernia, to come and consult us. be examined and ob- tain our honest opinion free of charge. We cure hundreds of such cases with out use of the knife.

HENDERSON TALKS OF CONVICT ISSUE.
Says He Looks on Prob lem as He Did on
 Prohibition

Montgomery, July 1s.-(special That he does not desire to emulate the example of former Gov. Cole Blease or south Carolina in the exercise of the pardoning power, and that he does not propose to indulge in threats of any description, were statements made by Governor Henderson today when he was asked concerning a press report that he had announced that he might pardon all the convicts of the state rather than permit the passage of the proposed prison commission bill.
 You will find that no threats oY any kind will ever come from this of flee" the governor said to correspond ents.
 The governor discussed freely many Of the political questions of the day.
 T look upon the convict situation in Alabama just as I do upon the Iiouor problem" he said In discussing the proposition to put convicts on the road as recommended by the Investigating committee In the prison commission Dill. T believe in adopting the best method. I have yet to find the state
 
 factorily in all details, and as far as Alabama is concerned l believe that We should study the question thor oughly before making radical changes. Convict conditions in this state have been constantly improving for 20 years and I think they will continue to inn prove"
 The governor indicated that he is opposed to working convicts on the roads because, he declared roads built by free labor are cheaper than roads constructed by convict labor.
 Enemies to State
 Regarding the fight of certain mem bers of the legislature against the administration, Governor Henderson said that those members who cast their votes for or against measures solely for the reason of embarrassing his ad- ninistration are "enemies to the state"
 T find that I can get along very well with those members who are here for the sole purpose of serving their state and their constituents" said the governor. But I consider those mem- bers as enemies to their state who la Dor to make the administration a fail ure"
 The governor indicated that he is eealing principally with the rank and file of the legislature rather than with the leaders. "I believe in treating with all alike he said. When leaders take hold of things they generally take hold of everything and. in the present case, the governor would become a mere figurehead."
 The governor declared that he Is not worrying over the situation and ex- pressed confidence that the best good will yet be attained.

THREEFAVOR|TES
 RETURNED WINNERS
Grand Circuit Races at Cleveland Have Fast
 Opening

Cleveland. July 19.-Three favorites were returned winners one outsider threw panic into the talent. the fast est opening heat in the history of the Grand Circuit was trotted and a g. year-old trotting track record of 2:13h was established today in the opening at North Randall of the first 1915 Grand Circuit meet
 The Edwards stake of 2:10 pacers produced the sensation of the day when Russell Boy. an outsider, captured the honors in four heats. Incidentally he went the fastest mile ever made in the stake when he went the second heat in 2:03%. He barely escaped the flag in the first heat.
 The greatest interest of the day, out side of the Edwards stake, centers in the action of the two Pastime trotters. Lee Axworthy and Volga, favorites respectively in the 20S trot and the g. yearold trotting sweepstakes. Both were straight heat winners.
 Lee Axworthy proved more than a little lame when the horses were call sd for the 2:0S trot, but his owners de- cided to start him. and he rewarded them by trotting a beautiful race, out
 
 fastest opening heat in the history of the circuit when he negotiated the big ring in 2:05A. This heat also estab lished a new seasons race record.
