That Body Of Yours

HOW A LOW DEATH RATE IN
APPENDICITIS WAS OBTAINED.
''The 1000 deaths every year in
the United States from appendicitis
are quite unnecessary. Early dag
nosis discovery Of cause of symp-
tome) and prompt treatment for
appendicitis should reduce the death
total to almost nothing"
am quoting Drs. j. Shelton Hors-
ley, j. Shelton Horsley, jr., and Guy
w. Horsley, Richmond, Va, In the
Journal of the American Medical
Association. When we think of the
continued high death rate despite
greater knowledge now available re-
garding appendicitis, the statement
by Drs. Horsley should be carefully
considered.
Why Is the death rate still high?
A large percentage of patients
with ruptured or gangrenous ap-
pendix operated on at st. Elizabeths
Hospital have had a purgative for
indigestion or abdominal pain. An
"early" appendicitis with a purga-
VAVS Va eAAA CllCllld OCCOllCS ldtC dllU
gangrenous in "a hours"
Yet. as we think of the great num-
Der of individuals with pain in the
abdomen, who for years have OBJ
tanned relief from this pain by the
use OF purgatives or enemas we may
wonder If this warning about the
danger Of purgatives is justified.
The results obtained by the routine
treatment at St. Elizabeth's Hospital
do justify this warning. Since Janu-
airy l, 1881, routine treatment has
been:
l. Immediate operation is. done as
soon as appendicitis is proven, no
matter what the stage Of the dis
ease.
2. The appendix has been re-
moved; not one has been left in.
3. The tissues are handled gently,
suction used instead of gauze
sponges.
4. Stump of appendix is tied, re-
moved, and disinfected.
5. Rest of digestive tract is eff
fected by cutting down on food by
mouth.
In the period from January l,
1881. to May /, 1899, there were 972
patients operated on. Every patient
with acute appendicitis or peritonitis
from appendicitis was operated on
Immediately. OF the 972 cases,
there were 621 cases without peri
tonitis, 119 with peritonitis and 23l
chronic cases. OF the 972 cases there
were only 6 deaths.
When we realize that there were
only six deaths in nearly one thou
sand cases of appendicitis, two of
every three cases being acute, 1t
makes a great case for early opeEa-
ton in appendicitis.
Notwithstanding this there are
still some cases in which waiting
treatment must be used.

Bedtime Stories
By THORNTON w. BURGESS.

Farmer Browns Boy kept q
watchful eye on the feathered folk
who had gathered to eat the good
things he had put out for them in
and under the nearest tree in the
Old Orchard. In the first place, he
wanted to know just who was there.
In the second place, he wanted to
be sure that Black Pussy didn't take
advantage of their great need to try
to catch one of them. So it was that
presently he rubbed his eyes and
stared very hard while puzzled
look crept over his face.
IF I didn't know that my eyes
are sound and perfectly good I
should say that they were playing
me tricks" said he. Mother, come
here. Doesn't that look like Robin
out there?"
Mrs. Brown looked. "As sure q I

That's too much for me to

they will see what splendid shelter

hard indeed. Then he walked
around the barn and made a wide

Unequal Restrictions

Many advocates of simon-pure ath-
letics would swing the pendulum too
far. They shout "subsidization" too
quickly. No thinking person would
ban an athlete from a school job
merely because he is an athlete. His
chances for financial assistance
should be just as good-no better
than any other student.
Athletes as listed in the Big Ten
reports include all varsity squad
members and winners Of freshmen
mineral awards. The 5,l69 men who
are SO listed represent 7.6 per cent
Of the total undergraduate male en-
rollment in the conference, which
totals 1898.
Scholarships are made available
to 4,475 students in the Big Ten,
and Of that number 3l5 are held by
athletes. The percentage Of ath-
letes holding scholarships CORE
spends almost identically to the pro-
portion Of the number Of scholar
ships available to the total male en-
rollment.
What could be fairer?

GAN FRANCISCO.-You can't run

For Cobb was the bluebird harbinger

Cobb kept writing me letters, sign

I fell for the gag, not knowing that

athletics within the conference are

Members of the conference submit

Few people can find fault with
those restrictions. They are a log

That is unquestionably the most
widely discussed problem in inter-

mand for winning teams-a demand
emanating from alumni groups, stu
dent bodies and synthetic alumni
has resulted in many schools going
far afield in their search for ath-
letic talent-particularly gridiron lu-
minaries. 1t is obvious that many
schools have not relied solely upon
the fame of their professors or the
glory of their traditions to induce
athletes to die for dear old Clap

many cases, must be added a more

An Amazing Record

IN AHtuILIIS nCCOTU
In my opinion, Ty Cobb ran up
one of the great records of sport
something close to an all-time rec
ord-maybe the all-time top. For a
period of - consecutive years he
led the American league in batting
exactly IL times.
And all the hitters he had to
beat out were Napoleon Lajoie,
ShOeless Joe Jackson, Iris Speaker,
Eddie Collins, Mig Clarke, Sam
Crawford, Bobby Veach and a flock
Of others who were shooting from
$50 to 400. One year Joe Jackson
hit .4l0 and Cobb still beat him out,
with a far deader ball than they
have had for the last IL or Is years.
Here is a record-12 batting cham
pionships out of 10 consecutive ma
jor league play. That will never
be approached again.
Who was Cobb batting against?
Only Walter johnson, Big Ed Walsh,
Nick Altrock, Addie Joss, Chief Ben
der, Colby Jack Coombs, Smoky Joe
Wood, boo White, Cy Young, Eddie
Plank, RUDE Waddell-most of the
great pitchers of all time.

difference was between the old-tim-
