has been taken out—the entire left floor

side of his neck. The last operation was
the most severe, and probably success
ful. When he was put under ether for
it, it was intended to only take out a

sensible it ws$ determined to adopt the
heroic treatment and take out the entire
giand. He wm kept under the knife

to be little doubt that to conduct a
saloon in that village is a great risk of
life.
Mr. Joseph F. James, in a paper read
