TOOK SPLINTER FROM HEART
Extraordinary Operation That French
Surgeons Are Reported to Have
Successfully Carried Out.

An operation unique in the annals
of surgery, the extraction of a frag-
ment of hand-grenade from the heart,
was described recently at the Paris
Academy of Medicine by Professor
Armaingaud of Bordeaux.
The patient, a Young Partisan ser
geant of rather delicate constitution,
who was present at the session, was
wounded at St Hubert, in the Ar
gonne on October l. A splinter one
half inch square and one-eighth inch
thick lodged in the heart. where it
remained four and half months. On
February II DR. Maurice Beaussenat,
chief of the ambulance in the Rue
Jacques Dulud, Neuilly. undertook to
extract it.
Once the heart was laid open the
difficulties began. The fragment was
very awkward to catch, and slipped
from the forceps several times before
it could be extracted. but the heart
continued to beat all the time. AL
though complications were feared.
everything went we'll, and the SER
geant could be considered cured a
month after. Members of the acad-
emy were able to see for themselves
that the, heart was now acting nor
mally. and that cure had been es-
tablished beyond all doubt

Submarine Attack.

Submarines are not afraid to at.
tack hostile warship from a favor
able position. but owing to their very
small power Of resistance to gun fire.
and that their only offensive weapon
against warships is the torpedo, the
guns they carry being of such small
caliber as to be OF no avail against a
vessel protected in any way, they can
not attack them boldly on the surface
Of the water. Hence they are obliged
to maneuver until they reach a posi-
tion whence they can effectively dis
charge torpedo, and at this time
are necessarily submerged.
The periscope is one thing that Ia.
dicates the position OF a submarine:
another. when completely submerged.
is the line she makes which is visible
on the surface OF the water.

CARING FOR THE UNKNOWN
Patriotic Work Undertaken by Ger
man Women That Is OF Real Serv-
Ice to the Fatherland.

A correspondent of the COMPANION
in Germany writes of touching thing
that the lonely women of the natiop
have done-women who have no sons
no husband. no brother, no father in
the war; who are perhaps too old or
too feeble to nurse or to be otherwise
active. No one knows where the idea
started, but some women of that sort
made inquiries of the regiments re-
garding soldiers who had no father
or mother; they begged to be put in
communication with those soldiers.
The names of soldiers were sent to
these women, this strange name and
that. the names of men whom they
did not know and had never scent
Each woman chose one or two SOL
diers to be her especial care. The
chi,dlcss mothers sent gifts, and
sewed and knit for the metherless sol
licrs. Now and then came, in return,
a grateful post card from the field
from the adopted son. Once | read
one of the cards.
MANY thanks. dear friend" it read,
for the package of warm things.
Imagine my surprise! The mail ar
rived! l expected nothing, hut l was
the only one to receive a package
l alone, the orphan! From you | re-
ceived the only package / ever got in
my life."
Eight days later the orphan soldier
boy fell: comrade brought the news,
and gentle, lonely soul wept for him,
whom she had never known He had
been the means of forming a strong
tie that bound in imagination a wom-
ans silent life with the mighty fate
of her country. She who had never
been a mother had become a volun-
teer mother.-Youth's Companion.

THE TRIAL OF GOV. HAYS

There is not a man in Arkan- sas who is at all conversant with the conditions in Arkansas poli- tics who does not know and ap- preciate to the fullest, the real metal the Governor has shown in vetoing that disgraceful measure better known as the Hot Springs race gambling bill Gov. Hays veto message tells better than anyone else can do. Said he:
 ''I have only this to say: No act of mine, either while in the governors office or in the pri- vate walks o f life, will ever legalize any form of gambling. nor will ever, by my signature, permit gambling machines to be operated in Arkansas, even though it might mean the success of our state fair-and, too, I am strong advocate of the state fair, and shall lend my every effort to promote its suc- cess.
 This is the greatest question with which Ihave been confront ed. I realize, too. that in veto- ing this bill 1 am probably seal ing my own political doom and digging my own political grave. 1 do know. though. that when the questions of right and wrong are both placed Tn the balance that to my mind there is but one course to pursue. l know, too, that in vetoing this measure l am but responding to that still small voice" that within me dwells, and that 1 leave behind me a legacy that will say to my children and to my children's. children, your father was the keeper of his own conscience. "
 House Bill No. 258, by Sawyer of Garland, is vetoed.
 Respectfully submitted,
 Geo. w. Hays,

lation and the knowledge that the Fortieth General Assembly was the hardest working body that ever sat in the legislative halls.
 Paramount in legislation is the statewide liquor bill, with the accompanying legislation to make the operation of blind tigers felony. and to permit the officers to seize a stock of liquor stored within the state. The stability of these laws are problematical, for it is no secret efforts will be made to repeal them, as well as the Going law, if the present prohibition laws have not already nullified that. These efforts will take shape in an initiated Act which will seek to wipe them all off with one blow, and which must be voted OH in the general election of
 1916. It is not probable that the Greenhouse election bill, con- solidating state and national elections was encouraged by those who will seek to repeal the
 liquor laws. This law, by hold ing state and national elections
 jointly, will give the United
 States government control over
 them and power to investi
 gate and claims of fraud
 perpetrated at them. It is plain
 as an enlarged proboscis on a
 peaked face that the prohibition
 ists were merely throwing an
 additional safeguard around the
 statewide bill. To them the red
 flag of negro domination meant
 nothing, for they have no fears
 but what the whites will domi-
 nate even in the negro counties, as has always been done. The
 Greenhouse bill will go a long
 way to eliminrting much of the alleged unfairness in Arkansas politics. fer though it does not reach the primaries, it will force the Democratic party to put up a better class of men to hold their own in the general election.
 The balance of legislation has been 95 per cent local in it's nature, but it has been whole some, and will result, for the most part, in the general up- building of the state. The Fortieth General Assembly has done little to be condemed for and much to be praised. It has been the best appearing and by far the most intelligent of any in recent years. It is true that the House defeated the best election law that could be pre- pared by the most eminent lawyers of Arkansas, and one which the Senate declared could not affect the man who honestly won an election. but politicians 50 muddled the House on this pill that it lost sight of the many splendid features, in making a out of the mole hill as he vicious sections were to them by the poli- jeans the bill would have eliml- hated from the office. There is yet a day to come on this bill, however, and time will see it on , h e Arkansas statute books. Every year sees the Assembly getting closer to the people and two years more will convince the members that the people de- sire a little recognition at the polls and the assurance that the people they elect will serve in office.
