Last June, Dick Crawford brought his twelve months' old child, suffering from infantile diarrhoea, to me. It had been weaned at four months old and being sickly everything ran through it like "water through a. sieve. I give it the usual treatment in such cases, but with-, out benefit. The child kept growing '"thinner until it weighted but little more than when born, or perhaps ten pounds. I then started the father to giving Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and -Diarrhoea Remedy..

SURGERY IN THE STONE AGE. Prehistoric Mm Knew How to Perform Trephining. Prof. Victor Horsle.y, F. K. S., lately made some interesting- assertions m an address in Toynbee hall, London, upon "Trephining in the Stone Age." He said that there was no doubt that these prehistoric people, though little better than savages-of a low type, performed this delicate operation, and the proof of it to sursreons was convincing. If the wound in an injured skull healed the sharp edges become rounded, and if there was a kind of worm-eaten ap pearance round what was once . a wound it meant that there was inflam mation at -the time of healing. ' Prof. Ilorsley exhibited representations of prehistoric skulls which presented these appearances, and urged that it was sufficient proof that the owners survived these operations, performed something like five thousand years ago. He founds that in one instance the hole had been . scraped out of the skull, and mentioned that even at the present time among the Kabyles, in the north of Africa, two days were oc cupied in performing1 the . operation. Trephining was also .accomplished by drilling a number of holes with a bone drill, then breaking down the small partitions, and so releasing the desired piece of bone. Again.the operation could be effected with a stone saw, and skulls were represented that showed that after the peripsteum had been scraped away sawing had been resorted to. Primitive people, he said, were very careless as to these operations, and even five hundred years ago in Germa ny a piece of the-skull was removed as a cure for melancholy. If a savage suffered in the head from a blow tre phining was accomplished, and doubt; less the sufferer from fits, who was considered to be possessed, was re lieved by a similar operation. From the skulls he had examined he found that the holes were generally made immediately above those parts of the brain where an injury would induce fits. Often the piece of bone was re placed in the skull and at other times it was split up into amulets. No doubt the dwellers in "the stone age looked into the operation as something' very special, and considered that the bone removed had supernatural properties. OLD WORLD ETIQUETTE. . Strange Social Customs Which Ape Ob served l-i Europe and Asia. ' In Sweden, if you address the poor est person on the street you must lift your hat, says the Philadelphia Press. The same courtesy is insisted upon if you pass a lady on the stairway. To enter a reading room or a bank with one's hat on is regarded as a bad breach of manners. To place your hand on the arm of a lady is a grave and objectionable familiarity. - , , In Holland a lady is expected to re tire precipitately if she should enter a store .or a restaurant where men are congregated.' - "She waits until they have transacted their business and de parted. . Ladies seldom rise in Spain to re ceive a mate visitor, ana tney rare ly accompany him to the door. For a Spaniard to give a lady even his wife his arm when out walking is looked upon as a decided violation of propriety. .- In Persia, among the aristocracy, a visitor sends notice an hour or two be fore calling, and gives- a day's notice if the visit is one of gTeat importance. He is met by servants before he reaches the house, and other considerations are shown him according to relative rank. The left, and not the right is considered the position of honor. No Turk will enter a sitting-room with dirty shoes. The upper classes wear tight-fitting shoes, with galoches oyer them. The latter, which receive all the dirt and dust, are left outside the door. The Turk never washes ia dirty water. Water is poured over his hands, so that when polluted it runs away. In Syria the people never take off their caps or turbans when entering the house or visiting a friend, but they always leave their shoes at the door. There are no mats or scrapers outside and the floors inside are covered with expensive rugs, kept very clean in Moslem houses and used to kneel upon while saying praj'ers. - - PEANUTS IN GERMANY. Government il Kxperlnn:nti as to Its Vsluy as an Article o? l''bod. The increasing use of the paanut as a food staple in other parts of the world is attracting- the attention of our department of state, and the bureau of statistics is gathering: information from the consuls about it;' The Amer ican consul at Frankfort, Germany, writes lhat- experiments are now in progress with a view to the use of pea nut meal in the commissary of the German army and navy. Most of the nuts imported into Ger many are used only for their oil. In 1803 the imports amounted to 520.973 tons. Of this quantity nearly 14,000 tons came from Africa and almost all the rest from Uritish East India. Only twenty-five tons were imported from this country, which produces , the sweetest tasting but least oleaginous varieties.- Most of the oil i.s oed as a substitute for olive oil for sali iu-JI cooking. The best African nut oil ranges in price from 57 cents to 81 a gallon. The American irUts produce an oil worth only about 50 cents. The second quality and last ptssing-s go to - "fatten"' oleomargarine and to make soap. etc. The ref use.afvcr pressing-, is make up into food for cattle and sheep, and the shells are used in the manufacture of cheap paper, or ground up for fodder with the crushed kernels. It was the wonderful nutri tive quality of the peanut oil cake fed to domestic animals which t set the savants to experimenting with the nut as a cheap food. ; It is only two years ago, since Thom as Courtney took Rebecca F. Stivers, as his bride, in Montgomery county, Ind. Since that joyful day they have been twice divorced and now they are married for the third time.
