EXPERIENCES
I once visited the operating-room of above it, though they were not enlarg-
a very noted hospital in Baltimore.
The patient on the table had a small
tumor or “lump”’ in her left breast.
The surgeon talked softly as he di
vided the delicate tissues on his way
to the offender, which he finally re
moved, and closed the wound.
“Ihese things are not malignant,”
ho mured, “and this would never
have given her trouble—did no: need
surgery, but she had read a lot of
stuff—it was on her nerves; just had
to have it out or go crazy”—and so on.
I had not been home ten days, when
a young woman patron came into my
office, with the same identical condi
tion—a lump in her breast; somebody
had told her those things were alway.s
cancerous—what did I think?
, “Mary,” I advised, “let it alone and
quit being anxious; just you come in
once a month for a while, and I’ll tell
you what to do.” She obeyed to the let
ter. I asked her ten days ago about the | Dresses 'of woolen materials are j

Fifteen years later, she went to the
most noted surgeon in our western
country. He told the woman she was a
permanent invalid, skin and bone—in
curable—and that the hasty and un
wise removal of her breast had caused
it! In other words, she might be well
and happy todajv had the breast been
let alone.
She has been dead now, more than
a year. My moral is, don’t do your
own diagnosing of lumps that may ap
pear in your breast. Consult your hon
est, capable family physician, who has
your every interest in his heart. And
this means in tumprs of your breast;
they may be dangerous, but happily
not always.

close to the henhouse.
He came upon his discovery hy ■
strange incident. A road building com

and while the noi.se was enervatin : to
him. he found that It had another in
fluence on the fowls; ns long as the
dynuinititig went on, his loO hens laid
exactly double the number of eggs as
before.
When the excavation was ftnlslc'd,
the egg crop immediately decreased to
Its normal low level, wherefore the
observant farmer let his trusty shot
gun serve ln.stead, and every morning
took a couple of shots at nothing In
particular. Tlie hens responded wii'.i
