MAYO BROTHERS.
Famous Surgeons Give Fortune for
Medical Research.

Have something the world wants
and though you dwell in the midst OF
forest it will wear beaten path to
your door" So runs the famous pro-
verb, a proverb that has been brill
liantly exemplifed by the two Mayo
brothers, the worlds master surgeons.
These men, who maintain the noted
surgical hospital at Rochester Mimi,
country town. has just given w.
$50, 900 to the University of Minnesota
for medical research.
I'VE turn over to the regents the
bulk of our savings as an outright
gift" said DR.. William ]. Mayo, eldest
of the two. 1.-THE money came from
the people, and we feel it should re-
turn to the people,
That fine sentiment sums up the life
work of these men. Since fame came
to them many years ago they have
labored zealously to relieve suffering
with less thought of self than any men
of their time. The story of their be-
ginning ana later achievement is one
of special appeal
DIR. w. w. Mayo, father of the two
surgeons left New England as young
man and practiced in several western
towns. Eventually he located in
Rochester, and it was there that the
two boys were born. During their
youth they worked in drug store,
studied pharmacy and then aspired to
be physicians. Their college days over.
the brothers came back to Rochester
and settled down to the life of village
doctors. But renown was not long In
finding them out. In. a small way at
first, working with the elder Mayo,
also man of much SKILL they per-
formed operations which attracted
much attention. No case seemed too
desperate for them and they effected
cures where other men had given up
BY degrees their local fame spread
until the sick and the manned began
to visit Rochester in search OF their
aid. That was the beginning of the
present hospital, where dozens OF
major operations take place every day
1t was not long until the Mayo broth
ers came to rank among the greatest
surgeons of the country Today they
are recognized as the most distin-
guished members of their profession
and other surgeons come to them from
all over the world for instruction and
advice.
One of the brothers will soon go to
France with the American army and
after a time the other is to relieve
him. Plans for handling our wounded
are being developed with the Mayos

Often Blind and Develop other FacuI.

The ordinary immunity of horses
from deafness is a great advantage to
the human race. for the value of a
horse which could not hear the COM
mand to go or stop and which could
not be quoted, controlled and en-
couraged by the human voice when
frightened or in difficulties would be
greatly lessened. The horse, says the
Boston Transcript is really one of the
best listeners in the world. He is al
ways on the alert for sounds which
concern or interest him. When he
looks at anything he turns his ears
toward it, to observe the better
whether any sound comes from it. II
a horse" Is particularly interested in
your driving of him, he always turns
his ears backward toward you, but If
he has no concern on that subject, or
if he sees anything ahead that inter-
ests him, he keeps his ears pricked
forward. A horse hears the whinny
of another horse at greater distance
This comparative immunity is more
remarkable from the fact that horses
are often blind or have defective eye
sight. We see blind bosses every day
and always sympathize with them,
but it is certainly wonderful how they
get along 50 well. The guidance by
the reins, of course, helps them great
ly, but the nomad is told by the para :
grapher at the next table that he
once knew pair of totally blind
horses which were driven among
stumps in blowing rough ground, and
that they picked their way among the
stumps as successfully as seeing
horses could have done. 1t is posi-
BILE that blindness is compensated fol
