This "straw vote'' of HARTLEY may be like other
tests of that kind incomplete and unsatisfactory because
was limited to twenty five instances and possibly to only
few car lines 1t does coar he thinks the assertions of

stopped from offering their seats to women on street
cars was lack of evidence of appreciation in the majority
of cases.
Harteys poll may lead to further tests to street
cvilities the next time by women as we'll as men, and
maybe then will begin to understand something about
ourselves Any test though should extend to greater
number of instances than twenty-five.

Appendicitis is a peculiar pain in
the region Of the vest-pocket, which
is later transferred to the region Of
the check-book pocket. 1t Is said by
some people to be a disease Others
claim 1t to be a fad, while the doc
tor regards 1t as an opportunity. l
comes from an instruction of the
vermiform appendix, a small annex
to the intestine. There are two ways
of curing 1t. 1t can be reduced by
outside manipulation, or it can be
cut out. In the latter case, the ap.
pendix is not reduced, but the sur.
geon's bill can, by con and economy,
be reduced In installments to a nor.

removes all of his tools from the
premises, and does not present his
statement until the patient is quite
strong. When the patient has recov-
cred, he is given his appendix i'm.
