Plate Lodged in Her Lung.
Roanoke. Va.. March 8.?Surgeons
at a local hospital announced that an
operation on a woman revealed that
a particle of plate from false teeth,
lodged at the base of her lungs, had
caused the patient to suffer from
what doctors for seven years had believed
was tuberculosis.
The surgeons declared that the !
woman showed an improvement iml
mediately following the operation.

The house of delegates of Missisk
sippi recently voted $5,000 to Will
Purvis, a Lamar county farmer, who
r -twenty-six years ago was convicted
^ of killing a fellow citizen near CoB
lumbus, Miss. Later he w^s led to
B the scaffold. The noose slipped and |
Purvis slipped through the trap unlft|
hurt. His sentence was then changed
^B to life imprisonment. Two years
B later a death-bed confession of *another
man cleared Purvis.

11- S. Rnvs German Potash.
American orders amounting to $50,f)00,000
have beer, booked by the Gerjnan
Potash Syndicate at Berlin, says
k news dispatch, which declares deliveries
will be extended over a number
of years. The syndicate hopes to
dewfce the greater part of its output
to the American export trade. As
payment for potash shipped to Amer-1
icj will be made in dollars, it is be- '
lieved the syndicate's deal will assist!
^ materially in the meeting of German
obligations abroad.

s*r,">y Still Going lip.
WtiSte paper is costing more every j
mi nth and the outlook is for still '
higher prices. As a result a good I
many newspapers are certain to be j
forced out of business and drastic |
reforms will have to be practiced
throughout the publishing world. The
of these reforms promises to be
discontinuance of the custom of
giving quanties of free space to the
exploitation of all sorts of causes.
Only in the United States has this
practice prevailed and it is one which
ha3 caused all visiting journalists to
open their eyes in wonder. In EngV
land, if a hospital or an organization
wents to raise money it makes its
^ appeal in the advertising cdlumns at
regular advertising rates. The mere
fact that an organization is an emineatly
worthy one and that the funds
B >eeks arc to bo used for charitable
MM.Wses makes no difference. It is
there that the space costs
money just as much as
