DISCOVERY OF cHLoRoFORM
Edinburgh Physician First Tried It Or
Himself.

The recent death of Sir Alexander
brings to mind the wonderful discov-
cry of his uncle, Sir James Simpson,
his predecessor as professor of mid
wifery in the chair of Edinburgh uni
versity Sir James, il not actually the
discoverer of chloroform, was, at any
rate, the first to introduce its en-
ployment as an anesthetic into surgi
cal practice. This was in 1S4S.
Previously all operations were per
formed without anesthetics, the pa
tient being drugged with whisky and
held down by strong men while the
operation was performed. No medical
discovery ever did more to alleviate
human suffering.
Sir James is generally given credit
for the actual discovery of chloroform,
but it was stated in some works that
it was discovered some years pre-
vious to his first experiments by an
American doctor named Guthrie and
by French physician named Souber-
ian. In any case. 1t was DR.. Simpson
who proved its great value as an an
esthetic, and the room in which he
made his first experiment still ex-
lists in Edinburgh.
The story goes that he tried the
chloroform on himself and two medi-
cal friends. They proved its efficacy
by simultaneously falling beneath the
table. Sir James had considerable
prejudices to overcome before chic
reform was adopted generally by the
medical profession, it being denounced
at one time as dangerous to health,
morals and religion.-St. Paul Pioneer
Press.

"Yes," said the wife hesitatingly

But you should have said, Get thee
behind me, Satan Have you forgotten
that?"
"Oh, no; but that was what made

thee behind me, Satan and he did,
but he whispered over my shoulder,

FRECKLES
Don't Hide Them With a Veil; Re-
move Them With the Othine
Prescription.

This prescription for the removal
of freckles was written by promi-
nent physician and is usually so sue
cessful in removing freckles and CIV
ing a clear, beautiful complexion that
it is sold by any druggist under guar
antee to refund the money if it fails.
Don't hide your freckles under
veil; get an ounce of othine and re-
move them. Even the first few ap-
plications should show wonderful
improvement, some of the lighter
freckles vanishing entirely.
Be sure to ask the druggist for the
double strength othine; it is this that
is sold on the money-back guarantee.

that name may or may not be interest
ing to us, but what is interesting is their
statement that 1t has, as hydrocarbon,
equal food value with the starchy foods
and by digestion largely adds to the
fatty tissues of the body.
Why do we eat sugar anyway? Your
first answer might be: Because it is
sweet and tastes good" OF itself the
answer would be correct, but the more
important fact is that the body Graves
sugar because 1t needs 1t. And when the
body Graves something it gives us an ap-
petite for 1t. So primarily that's why we
like sugar and things made with sugar
and not just because they are sweet.

up we have to have our sweet food just
