What next? Who can say? Last
week one days news that men had
conversed by wireless telephone from
New York to San Francisco was fol-
lowed the next day by news that they
had talked from New York to Homo
lulu. The giant leap of the human
voice 2 900 miles across hill and vale,
over mountain and valley, over des-
ert and flood from coast to coast, was
beaten by the next days leap of 4,9O0
miles across continent and half
across an ocean.
What is the limit? What is to him
der talking with Europe? Nothing,
says Carly.
Who's Carly? He's the man Pres
ident Vail talked with from the office
of the telephone company up in that
tall beehive on Dey street-they pro-
nounce it die" in New York
when he picked up a receiver and
said, Hello, Carly. This is Vail
talking. Can you hear me?"
And through the ether from Mar
Island out in San Francisco bay came
the reply, Yes; | hear you perfectly.
This is wonderful"
And they went on talking the same
as if a wire connected them a few
blocks apart.
More marvellous still was the talk
from Arlington to Honolulu, out
there in the Pacific, half way to Asia.
Leaping across the thousands of miles
of space went the human voice, pro-
PEELED by invisible waves and caught
| by the slender antennae of the navy S
wireless mast.
Carly? Oh. yes; Carly is John j..
Carly, chief engineer of the Ameri-
can Telephone and Telegraph Com
pany, who has been working on the
wireless telephone device for years.
Now Prof. Lubin, the wonder man
of Columbia University, says there is
no reason why men cannot encircle
the world with their voice.
ShOwered Hand Grenades.
We should worry. What if a tel
ephone company does charge high
/ rates? Here is DR.. H. Barringer Cox,
I of Bedford Hills, n. Y, who has in
vented a pocket edition of the wire
! less that enables him to fash mes
sages through the air 8 miles away.
Just by sticking his walking stick
which is metalIic-into the air he
can bring down a message the same
as you bring down an apple. He
sends out a message by manipulating
a telegraph key on the transmitting
! box belted at his waist. There is
/ lot of technical, inscrutable stuff that
| no layman can understand between
the little key and the message that
goes hurting through space; but in
/ the main what it amounts to is this:
A man may walk away into the cOun-
/ try for a ramble full Is miles and
! still communicate with his house. A
doctor out on the golf links ten miles
away from home may stick up his
magic wand in the air and learn If
there are any patients who demand
/ his instant attention. Secretary OF
State Lansing, in his boat at Hender-
sen harbor fishing for bass, may stick
I'D a slender rod and learn if they
require him at Washington.

MARvELS OF SURGERY PERFORMED
BY MODERN WIZARDS OF SCALPEL

her legs drawn tightly and immOva-
bly, up, as though she were about to
negotiate a high step. She had been
in this condition for many years.
Rather than use crutches she wore
an artificial leg attached to the real
leg, wearing a shoe and stock on
the actual end of the artificial limb.
The great tendons, or ham strings,
were cut and heightened several inch
es. Large sections of unnatural bone
were found growing firmly in posi-
ton which prevented the leg from be-
ing Strengthened. DR.. Murphy took
UP his chisels and planes and in a
moment. working like an experienced
Joiner, had planed these down. Then,
chopping off a few inches of bone
ends at the joints, he nailed them to-
gether and the patient was taken
from the operating room. Six weeks
later she was walking as though she
had never been the victim of defOrm-
ity.
Girl Supplied With New Jaw.
Perhaps one of the most remarka-
BILE pieces of bone carpentry that has
been performed was the manufacture
by DR.. Murphy of a new jaw for a
girl in Chicago The patient was a
sarcoma sufferer and it was neces-
sary to remove her lower jaw. This
could have been done year ago, but
she would have remained an unpleas-
ant sight for the rest of her life. Dr.
Murphy decided on plan. He con-
structed a jaw of heavy silver wire,
with metal frame. This was placed
in the position formerly occupied by
the real Jaw and sewed there. The
flesh was quilted through the wire
frame as a grandmother works with
her quilting needle; the mucous
membrane of the mouth was sutured
down on top of the tissue and the
skin closed over the whole.
There are pictures of this patient
in Mercy Hospital, Chicago, today,
and it is impossible to tell, save for
a narrow scar under her chin, where
it is quite invisible save on examina-
ton, that she is carrying d manufac-
tured lower jaw. But that is not all.
The new jaw works just little bet
ter in every respect than the old one
did.
Experiments have shown that there
are almost limitless possibilities IN
the transferring of one portion OF the
anatomy to the other in the same
individual. In recent case mar
row strip of shin bone IA inches in
length was cut from the sound leg
of a person and nailed to the other
in the same individual. A bone I'M
ion resulted, and now the two legs
seem to be equally strong.
Grating a Pigs Eye.
1t had been thought, as a result OF
The Dawson news. (Dawson, Ga.) 1889-current, 1915-10-19

various experiments, with animals,
| that bones and organs could not be
| transplanted from different species
| to others with any success. A recent
operation at the Baltimore Eye, Ear
and Throat Hospital refutes and eX-
plodes that theory. In this case the
entire cornea of the eye of pig was
| taken out and grated on the eye of
3-months-old boy. Every indication
points to the success of the operation,
although the grating of an animal
cornea on the human eye had never
before been successful. This opera
ton was the first in the history OF
surgery to be reformed with the eye
of a pig. In this operation the pig
was chloroformed, the eye ball taken
out and the cornea cut from it. An
extraordinarily fine needle and fine
silk were used in putting the cornea
in place until it had grown to the
child's eyeball.
Another operation where pig It's
sue was used was performed at a
Baltimore hospital on a child Is
months old which, from BIRTH had a
jaw of solid bone, making it impossl-
pie IOE LuG CuIlQ W lllOhC It,
In the first operation the surgeons
made an incision and cut the bone OF
the Jaw where the new joint was to
be made. Then they rounded out one
end of the bone and made a socket
in the other. A piece of pig tissue
was then inserted between the bones
to prevent growing together, and
the wound closed up. The same pro-
cess was applied to the other side OF
the Jaw, with the result that the de-
formed Jaw is as good as new.
When part of the stomach is hope
lessly involved the surgeon cuts out
the affected portions, readJusts the
whole digestive tract as if he were
an expert plumber, and the patient IS
likely to live happily for many long
year.
Operating on the Heart.
Only the other day a surgeon in
Paris extracted shrapnel bullet from
the right auricle of French sol
dier's heart. This surgical feat was
accomplished by the use of radio
graphic compass invented by the sur
geon, which enabled him to find for
eign bodies in the tissues with math-
ematical precision, and permitted
their extraction without injury to the
neighboring organs.
From head to foot transformations
and repairs can now be made in the
human frame which will prolOng the
span of life. Ingenious as are the
devices for regeneration of the hu-
man frame there is still much lack
ing for the completion of any scheme
for adding year to human life, in
that the cause and cure OF cancer
have not been determined. At pres
ent the medical profession is advocat-
ing early operations for the disease,
and there are many instances on rec
ord in which the march of the
scourge in the human system has
been permanently arrested.

May USE STEAM ROLLER
JUDGE HOPKINS, LEADER OF THE
DOES NOT EXPECT THE SES-
SION TO LAST LONG.

Judge II. w. Hopkins of Thomas
Vile, who was conceded to be the
backbone of all the prohibition eau
cuses the past summer, says the ma
jority party is not going to permit
the November session of the legisla-
ture to last longer than fifteen days.
At his home in Tohomasville he is
quoted by a dispatch as saying:
We will use the steam roller on
them if we see any indication of the
session being long drawn out or the
members working to have it last long
er, but | see no possible chance now
for its going over that time
To conduct any dilatory movement
successfully the minority party must
have a strength of thirty-two, and
they claim to have more than that.
A fact evidently overlooked in calcu-
lations is that, under Governor Har-
ris' proclamation, a food of bills now
pending as unfinished business will
be eligible for consideration in No
yember, and, though the call is lin
tied to six subjects, there are be-
tween seventy-five and one hundred
bills which may be introduced.
The average estimated length of
the extra session now is from twenty
five to thirty days, based on the I'M
destanding that the senate intends to
again rush the prohibition bills
through as rapidly as possible and
put the burden of final action on the
house.
