"Beware of the surgeon who has a record for speed In performing opera tions," advises Sir Berkely Moynihan in his recent address before the liritish Medical association. The great dif forence in shock and prostration fol lowing different cases of the same 'op oration is usually the result of op posito methods. The gentle surgeon who handles the tissues and organs as if they were his own and avoids bruising or insulting the nerves as if they were awake and conscious must take much more time for his work. The operator who works with one eye on the clock lacerates, tears and ulpsets a Patient's Internal economy, uid he is much miore likely to over look something. Second operations most frequently follow quick, bril liant first performances. Doctor Moynihian refers to tho tactics of the brilliant speed* record holders as "canino methods." Of course, nolbody wishes to bo upon the operating table a moment longer than necessary, nor ' to take an extra breath of ether. lilut the results of a few drops more of anaesthetic are negligible and not to bo compare(d with the miserles and often fatal ef feet of shock. "The Perfect surgeon must have the heart of a lion and the hand of a lady, never the claws of a lion and the lieart of a shop. Ani operation is dono quickly enough when it is dono right." All Nations Smoke. There is hardly a country In the world where tit pipe is not smoked in one form or another. The Kafllir (early loves his pipe, and, failing the genuine article, will use anything that will hold tobacco from a piece of Iron piping to a cow's horn. When not even these are avail able he wiII use the earth! lie does this by packing a small hole to hold tle tobacco, from which lie makes a passage for the smoko by pushing a curved piece of wire through th(. grotid. lie then lies face (downwards. applies a light to the tobacco, and Is lips to the grouid, at the spot whero lie has \vithdrawa the wire, and slloke-S in peace.

Having finally cornered their victim, certain New York guinen permitted hii1m one in into In which to pray. Then they gave him the usual quietus and went about their business as ac tive New Yorkers are expected to do. The prayer of Labby the Lout Isn't known. It probably embodied a fran tic appeal for some miraculous Interpo sition between the expectedi bullets andl his own vulnerable person. And while lie prayed the grimi gun men stood by readly, watchful, inexor able. it was a tragic inicident-a tragedy with melodramatic trimmings--and Its most pitiful feature was the readiness of theso young mur'derers to execute what may have been some fancied call for justice-the Justice that prompts murderers to eliminato traitors and Informers and spies. So Labby the Lout had his moment for prayer-and breathed out his life and his amen together. Radium Found In Salvador. Information has just been obtained that In the Central American republic of Salvador a reasonably certain find of radium has been located. This de posit was discovered at Cerro Pelon, in one of the northern departments, Sensuntepeque, not far from its chief town. The discovery was made by an Eng lish engineer who some1 years ago made careful studly of the mineralogy of the (district andi took home with him samples from the mines there. An assay of these samples showved a very complex combination (of minerals, but at that time little value was placed on them. Recently this engineer made further analysis in the light (If his larger ex perience and they gave undoubted evidences (of containinig radlium, andl two qualified enginecers were sent over to make further and more detailed in Ivestigations of the or'es.

The charm of a perfectly noble comnpan ion ship between two souls is as real as the perfume of a flower, and is impossible to convey by word or speech; nature has made its sanctity inviolable by making it for ever impossllei to revelation and transference. I cannot translate into any language the delicate charm, the inexhaustible variety, the noble fidel ity of truth, the vigor and splendor of thought, the unfailing sympathy of our ardent friendships; they are a party of the forest, and one must seek t~hem there.--Hamilton Wright Mabie. .1 ictuire show ticket with every (canl of ('offee sold this week at J.
