He was so adored and beloved by the men in the army that they were often inspired to deeds of heroism when they knew that thelr beloved surgeon was among them, It ls sald that on one occasion the French army was be- sieged and in imminent danger of d | feat. Report was spread that Pave hy arrived and ‘was in the army's midst, ‘This report so inspired the soldiers w.th enthusiasm and courage that they ral- lied, turning to attack and changed cer- tain defeat into victory. Such was the esteem in which Pare was held because of hig originality and his skill ag a surgeon.

For, in those days, the art of surgery was practised only by bar- bers, farriers, cobblers and tinkers. It was regarded below the dignity of a gentleman and scholar to handle the lancet or take care of wounds. The surgeons in the armies had to act also as barbers to the higher officers of the army. It may have been very fine to be shaved by a surgeon, but !t must have been very awkward to be operated on by a barber, During his apprenticeship Pare be- came a student at the Hotel Dieu and later a pupil of the renowned anat- omist, Sylvius. He was a very prof- cient student in anatomy, for he soon afterward became his teacher's assist- ant. After his apointment to the post of army surgeon he soon became famous for the skill with which he executed his operations and for new and original methods, He was the first surgeon to Invent the method of ligating or tying large arteries. In this way he saved the lives of thousands of soldiers who Were otherwise doomed to death from bleeding or blood poisoning. He in- vented the operation for the correction of harelip, in use to the present day. Ambroise Pare was not recognized by the doctors of his own day, But he wrote many books on anatomy and sur- gery, which Were later translated Into other languages and studied by physi- cl 11 over the world, Pare's skill as @ surgeon endeared him not only to the men of the army. The King of France held him in great esteem for his ability and smployed him as his own physician, During the night of the great massacre of St. Bar- tholomew, when thousands of Hugue- nots were killed, the Ife of Py who was also a Huguenot, was saved through the personal exertlon¥’ of the King himself, Pare placed surgery upon the pedestal of @ dignified art, and from hig day it progressed slowly, till to-day it has come the highest branch of medical t and science, Pare died in France in 1590, after a life that deservedly placed him among the epoch makers In medi. cine. —_—>—— Eighty-Year-old Fighter.

However, this s the first attempt I over have made and yet I percetve that I shall soon easily acquire a fine facility I saw the thing in Boston day and was greatly taken with . He goes on to explain the new wonder, and on the whole his first attempt is a very creditable performance. With his ubual enthusiasm over an innovation he believes it 18 going to be @ great help to him and proclaims its advantages, ‘This 1s the letter to Howells “You needn't answer this; I am only practising to get three~another slipup there—only practicing to get the hang try to ocOnvince him that your cause is just—show him how it will help his pocketbook, 7 win a man to your belief do not Men who talk m: about themselvs realize that they are so Uttle thought inconvenience my friends."

The new enthusiasm ran its coume nd died. The typewriter was not per fect in those days as It is now and the keys did not always respond readily, He declared it was ruining his that It made him “wast to ewear.” He offered it to Howells, because, he said, Howells had no morals anyway, Howelle hesitated, @o Clemens traded the mar chine to Bliss for a side saddle But perhaps Bliss also became afraid of the influence, for in due time he brought it back, Howells, again tempted, healtated and this time was lost.
