DAMN" TO BE TAKEN
FROM PRAYER BOOK

New York, Sept. discrimination OF
me word damn" from the Episcopal
prayer book and the substitution OF
the word condemn" is recommended
by the commission on revision of the
prayer book, In report to be sub
mitted to the triennial convention OF
the Protestant Episcopal church at
st. Louis, next month.
The commission argues that "con-
'emn" is a more correct translation of
he Greek word. The commissioners
suggest that damn" is harsh, inter
Eeres with the beauty OF the service
and that its use in church had q bad
influence on the young.

Market Quotations
WHEAT DISPLAYS
ADDED STRENGTH
After an Uncertain Start Quotations
Attain Bullish Attitude and
Score Slight Gains.

Chicago, Sept, 26.-Wheat prices de-
veloped fresh strength today after an
uncertain start Opening prices, which
ranged from 3c decline to 3sc ad-
vance. with December at 1.54% to
1-55Ss and May at 1.54s q to 1.551s were
followed by substantial gains all
around.
For a while. reports of excessive
rains interfering with threshers in
Canada had a bullish effect but an in
crease of the world supply total led to
a decided reaction. The close was
heavy sc to 1c net lower with De-
cember at 1.54A and May 1543s.
Corn was steadied by the strength
of wheat After opening unchanged to
&c lower, the market sagged a little
further but soon recovered
Another down turn when wheat
showed weak. The close was I'M
settled at the same as yesterdays fin
ish TO 1ac lower.
Oats were easy on account of large
speculative sales. Nevertheless, de-
clines were only slight. Realizing by
holders tended to weaken provisions
Depression in the hog market was a
factor.

KNEW USE OF ANESTHETICS
Conclusive Evidence That Ancient
Surgeons Were Familiar With
Methods of AIIeviatina Pain.

Those who imagine that surgics'
knowledge began with later genera
tons. and that the discovery Of
chloroform. revolutionized the science,
should read an article recently pub
lished by DR.. j. de Fenton in the South
African journal OF Science.
Various anesthetizing media and
methods were well known both IN
antiquity and during the Middle Ages.
Homer mentions the anesthetic eff
fects of nepenthe; Herodotus states
that the Scythians obtained similar
effects from the vapors of hemp. pro
duced by throwing hemp seed on hot
stones. A Chinese physician of the
third century b. e. gave his patients
preparation OF hemp TO make them
insensible during surgical operations
The most important anesthetic of
ancient and medieval times was, how
ever, wine of maAdragora, the use of
OF early writer's. and is referred to
by Shakespeare. More recently. in
the year 1860, the German surgeon
Weiss. better known as Albinus. am
putated the foot of Augustus I'll. king
OF Poland, while under the influence
OF mandragora.
Two other anesthetizing agencies
were employed in very early times,
