TWILIGHT SLEEP FALLS
INTO DTSREPUTE HERE
Few Hospitals Employ Method,
Some Only Rarely-MedicaI
Men Oppose 1t

twilight sleep evidently Is not any
, more popular among members OF the medi+
cal profession In Philadelphia than in BaltI-
more, where the stamp Of disapprovai was
set upon It at Johns Hopkins Hospital
Many local hospitals have frowned upon It
for some time, some still use It occasionally.
while others do not employ that method
at ali.
The conclusion reached by consensus OF
opinion is that the method is too dangerous
and that the menace to the life OF the child
Is too great to warrant its use except under
most favorable circumstances.
AZ the Jewish Maternity Hospital. which
is said to have more cases than any other
maternity hospital in Pennsylvania, II was
said that twilight sleep" was extremely
dangerous for the child There is always
grave danger Of asphyxlation for the child.
II was said, and It only makes the mother
forget the pain later on, but does not neces-
sarlly relieve 1t at the time being.
out of sig cases at the Jewish Maternity
Hospital last year. twilight sleep" was used
only six times
Physicians say that at medical meetings
twilight sleep" is frowned upon 1t can
be used to advantage, Il was said, only in
some favorable cases. where the patient is
Of an extremely excitable and nervous tenn
permanent.
Twilight sleep" ls not used at the JEFF
ferson Maternity Hospital or at the Univer-
sity Hospital 1t has not been used re-
Gently at the Philadelphia Lylng-in Charity
Hospital, or at the Kenslngton Hospital for

WILLIE AND THE LITTLE BROWN
BEAR
By Farmer Smith

The Little Brown Bear had given up all
hope of ever seeing his mother and was
weeping softly when a step outside his home
attracted his attention.
Just at that moment the leaves parted
and the face Of a small boy appeared
1t was Little Willie Hunter
The Little Brown Bear was so over
joyed that he ran right out OF his home
no thought of harm entered his shaggy
head.
on the other hand, Willie Hunter was so
glad TO find pet that he threw his arms
around the little fellows neck and gave
him real hug-it must have been bear
hug.
Taking the Little Brown Bear up in his
arms, Willie looked up at his father and
asked How did you know we We're going
10 find a cub, daddy dear?
Il did not know, my son, but a hunter
must put two and two together in order to
make four
You remember the fine Mother Bear we
took home yesterday? Well, I knew"
"Oh, father / will be ever so kind To
this motherless little fellow"
With that Willie gave the Little Brown
Bear an extra hug and kissed him right on
the tip end of his cold little nose.
