FOR A GOOD DIGESTION A ist’ stion, 16 een 4" Fre ey o k8 machine and- digestion and elimina- tion of food are the two great fac- tors of health. If the digestive organs are weak, the stomach overtaxed, waste matter accumulates in the system—the liver gets sluggish and he blood becomes thin and devitalized. We want to ask every person in this vicinity who is troubled with in- digestion or a weak wornout stom- ach to try our delicious cod liver and iron tonic Vinol. We know' it will strengthen and tone up the weakened, tired and overtaxed nerves of the digestive or- gans, create a hearty appetite, and replace weakness with strength. We just heard of a case of a man in Oneonta, N. Y., who suffered from a bad stomach trouble for fifteen years and had become so weak he could hardly walk—who was cured by Vinol. Try a bottle of Vinol and if it fails to help you we will give back your money. Barker’s Drug Store, Bemidji, Minn.—Adv. OPERATED ON OWN BODIES Cases of Four Heroic Surgeons Wheo Established Records for Acts of “Autotomy.” The .recent report from San Fran- elsco that a surgeon there had at- tempted to operate upon himself for appendicitis recalls to Dr. Paul Reclus four instances where surgeons actually did succeed in performing operations upon themselves. He re- ‘counts them in the Lancet, and the torldlowlnx appears in the Medical Reo- ord: “Paul Reclus has commented on the courage and stolcism necesgary fgor the act of what he calls ‘au- totomy,’ or surgical operation upon one’s own body. He has described @t some length four examples of this ‘herolo procedurs. The firat story ia t of a French surgeon who, having asquired a small outgrowing tubercu- loma of the right index finger follow- iing an operation wound, determined |to excise it under cocaine anesthesia. ‘This he did, surrounded by his class, dn a curfously unsurgical way, by fix- ing the instrument—first a scalpel, ithen a sharp spoon—in the left hand and performing all the - necessary imovements with the diseased right hand. In spite of this novel tech- mique, the result was quite satisfac ‘tory. His only discomfort was a little mausea at the unpleasant sepsation of jsoraping his own periosteum; this .was, however, corrected by a sip of Mot coftee. “In the second case the surgeon op ierated on himself for bilateral ingrow ln( toe-nail, apparently without pain Jand with absolutely satistactory re \gult. The hero of the third story was & Turkish military surgeon attached ito Professor Reclus’ own clinlo, who as operated on for double inguinal ernia under local anesthesia with much complete success that he deter ymined to remove for himself a trouble mome affection. The procedure was ‘Painless and the result perfect. “The fourth ‘autotomy’ was per ;tomed by M. Regnault, & naval med Jcal officer, who was led to undertake & radical cure of his own hernia. He anesthetized the area of operation by injecting’ cocaine into the several lay ers of tissue concerned, after a pre- liminary injection of morphine intq the subcutaneous tissues of the thorax He guarded himself from disaster by enlisting the help of two colleagues, who stood by prepared for action in case they were needed. However, all went well, and there was neither pain nor mishap. Truth and Error, Verily, there is nothing so true thaf the damps of error have not warped it. Verily, there is nothing so false that a sparkle of truth is not in it For the enemy, the father of lies, the slant Upas of creation, can but per vert the good, but may not create the evil. He destroyeth, but cannot bulld; for he is not an antagonistic deity Mighty in his stolen power, yet is he & creature and a subject; not a maker of abstract wrong, but a spoiler of concrete right. The flend hath not & royal crown; he is but a prowling robber, suffered for some mysterious end to haunt the king's highway. And the keen sword he beareth once wat & simple plowshare. His panoply of error is but a distortion of the truth The sickle that once reaped righteous ness, beaten from its useful curve with ax, and spike, and bar, headeth the marauder’s halbert.

The old-time stereoscope, the friend of our childhood days, is promised a return to popularity in a somewhat new guise. The old-t{me device has been hitched to the latest phase of the photographic art and it may be but a short time before the modernized stereoscope will be seen in the par lors and sitting rooms of every home as it was once before. The mov- ing picture mgchine has been made -available for domestic purposes. It ia no longer limited to the auditorium and the hall, but & new camera, small, compact, and easily operated and not expensive, places the facility for mak- ing these pictures within the reach of the amateur. With the knowledge ac- quired with a little practice one may make pictures which will catch the merry twinkle of the eye, the fleeting light of baby's dimple and the little individualities which are lost in the fussiness of the studio pose. Needed Knowlédge. Sometimes one wonders if the world has forever lost its sense of peace and beauty, and if we are to whiz and yell and advertise till the end of time. Will simple pleasures seem tame and quiet ‘ways unsuccessful? Or are we mad only for a little term, and will we re- turn to spacious and serene things after this-fever cools? Shall we soon turn from the clatter of these days, the temporal display, the unreal values set on position and success, the scorn of what is simple-hearted and .generous, the haste and noise that drown out all gentle voices?
