that the Tranvaal will soon take the

When rote Its splendid wall.
No sound of hammer e'er was heard
Along Its stately balls.
My rastle In Spain Is built of dreams,
Of fancies fair and free;
Of hoe that ever brightly beams,
Of Jujs I yet nisy see.
And when my heart is worn with care,
With strife and toil and pain;
I leave them snd go swiftly where
My csKtle stands in Spain.
There dwell the days of my lot youth.
With each high hoi fulfilled;
There ahllies full-orbed each sacred truth,
That through my life ha thrilled;
There wait fur me my loved and lost.
With all life's Joys attained.
Life's Kiihlcon In safety crossed,
And all life's empire gained.
The little rares that round my soul
Like little snakes have curled
Uncoil and loose earh poisoned fold,
Outside that fairer world;
Old sorrows dead, old paina forgot.
Old grief come not again,
The beat burn not, the cold chills not.
Where aiy raxtle stands In Spain.
Oh. Ship of Thought, that leaves behind
The lightning and the light.
Come forth fnun river of the mind,

And hear me swiftly, on and on,

To where in beauty, proud and lone, "

And all the bliss of love we'll share,

Appendicitis.
The pnslilou is tuken by Dr. Mclttir-
ney. In the London Mi-dlcnl News, Unit
there really la no medical cure for ap
pend'oltls, even though some cases re
cover without operation; he considers.
loo, though apiH'iullcltls la a surgical
disease, yet operation may not lie nee
ossify In every ease, the fact being
that Mils ailment Is a stopimge of the
drainage from the appendix to the co
ion, and preliminary treatment Is often
worse than uselows. Thus, the opium
treatment relieves pain and discomfort,
but tntlrely mask the symptoma at a
most important time, for It Is In the
first twenty-four hours from the begin
ning of the attack that physicians can
decitk- not only as to the diagnosis, but
a to the result nnd course probably of
the cn..e. If, for Inatance. there Is no
Increase In urgency In five or all hours,
the pntlent Is not In Immediate dnnjeer
If kept at perfect rest In bed; on the
other hand. If In twelve hours there la
rtlll no Increase In the severity of the
symptoms, the patient should begin to
Improve. Hut. If the urgency of the
cn.se has steadily Increased In twelve
hours from the time when the diag
nosis was made, nn operation will prob
ably be called for. After two attacks
a patient Is sure fo have a third, and
each attack renders operation more dif
ficult ami dangerous; all the advan
