Kane, Pa.-Two weeks from tn,

ed since the patient has left the sick
room and disclose the fact that his
work was even more wonderful than
was at first reported.
"The experiment was worth while
fully worth WHILE" declared DR.
Kane, but declined to make any fur
ther statement, referring the ques-
toner to his colleague and surgical
assistant, DR.. D. E. Vogan. What
ever his judgment prompts him to
give out will be satisfactory to me, y
said DR.. Kane.
VALUABLE KNOWLEDGE GAINED
DR.. Vogan outlined the points
gained through the operation as fol-
lows:
First-Ease with which local op,
peration could be done
Second-Can be done without Sc
we're pain.
Third-Pain due more to traction
and rough handling of parts than to
incision
Fourth-Local an8sthesia must be
used in peritoneum after incision has
been made through skin and muscles,
and this is the most sensitive area.
Fifth-Any surgeon not too obese
with a fair degree of skill could do
such an operation on himself.
The operation is even more amaZ-
ing when 1t is stated that in addi-
ton to making the incision and re-
moving the appendix, DR.. Kane did
the larger part of the sewing in clos
ing the wound. His brother, DR..
Tom Kane, commenced the work of
closing the wound and had taken but
few stitches when the patient took
the needle from his hand and began
to sew as .unconcerned as though he
were splicing belt.
DESCRIBES OPERATION.
Dr.. vogan gave the details of the
operation, in substance, as follows:
Like the riddle of Columbus egg,
the operation proved simple affair
after being tried out The time oc-
cupied was about thirty minutes
from the commencement of the in
cision until the completion of the OPP
GRAFTON, or removal of the appendix.
This time could have been consider
ably shortened if DR.. Kane had APP
prised me and our staff in advance
in order that each assistant might
have known what individual role was
to be allotted to him in the novel
undertaking.

LEGISLATORS PROVIDE
FOR LARGER FAIRS


- Nashville, Tenn, March 25.-
Memphis emerged victorious from
another red hot legislative battle to-
day and incidentally the Tri-State
Fair is no longer dependent upon the
whims of legislators for the handout
it has been getting from the State
treasury. The Senate passed the bill
recommended by Bow Taylor and
recommended by Gov. Taylor and
of one-tenth of mill throughout
the State for the support of State, di-
visional and county fairs.
Under the arrangement the Tri-
State Fair will get at least $4,000
though at the same time the tax pay
ers of Shelby County will pay
$4,000 of the extra tax.
The main fight on the bill came
over an amendment by Senator Craig
of Lauderdale, providing that no sup
port would be given fair that per-
mitted betting or gambling to be car
ried on. A little while before, Sen
ator Womack,. of Coffee, had precip-
itated warm fight though losing
one over an amendment dividing the
fund equally !, throughout the 95
COuulleS VI lily OIdtc' OSudIOi OIdlS
followed viii the amendment. 1t
brought Senator Fuller Immediately
to his feet with the insistance that it
was an insult to the promoters of ev-
cry fair in the State and from that
Senator Craig proceeded to give his
reasons.
Being a neighboring Senator to
Shelby the example he cited very
naturally involved the Tri-State Fair
and for quarter of an hour he de-
tailed his experiences.

DR.. Kane and the surgeons present
were brought out by him and en-
phasized as the work progressed.
These were chiefly relative to the To-
cations of pain during incisional
manipulation of the viscera. The
surgeon patient verified veral
claims already made by surgeons and
Psychologists as to the relative SEN
sitiveness of the parts in and abol 1T
the field of operation, as also the de-
gree and nature Of pain pertaining
to each and places to which their
manipulation transferred the dis
tressing sensation.
DR.. Kane has been on his feet
more or less every day since the OPP

was in his operating room and per-
formed there serious and lengthy
major operation. He has entirely re-
covered, the wound having united

For twenty hours this food is
backbone reason you like
it-another reason why it
digests SO easily.

One of the important things in connection
with any cereal food is to have it thor
oughly baked or cooked. For baking or
cooking changes the starch of the grains.
Grape-Nuts is the longest baked of all
cereal foods. 1t is scientifically baked at
carefully regulated temperatures for 20
hours. This IS one Of the reasons why
Grape-Nuts digests 50 easily; why it agrees
with many people who cannot take any
other form of cereal without producing
fermentation.
A goodiy part of Grape-Nuts is converted
into dextrose ready to be Immediately assin-
Hated by the system, and yield strength and
energy. A further portion has partially
undergone this change, while there remains
sufficient unchanged cereal to strengthen the
digestive organs. 1t is then in condition
to meet the various requirements of the
digestive system.
IF you want to eat most Strengthening
and nourishing food, and one that will digest
more readily, go to your grocer today and
get package of Grape-Nuts. Eat it with
stewed fruit or as a cereal with milk or
cream; or make it into an appetizng pudding.
