Third, the singe of deformity, usually whnt the pnyslclnn calls kyphosis, a backward hump, hunchback. Sach of these stages last many months, ns a rule, and merges gradually Into the succeeding stage.

The likelihood that President Cool idge will be called on once more to fill a vacancy in the United States supreme court and to do so before the next session of congress is being quietly discussed ln political and other quarters iu Washington. Retirement of Associate Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes of Masu chusetts is talked of as a probability. According to cur rent rumors, he will quit the bench nt the beginning of the fall term, about October I. Justice Holmes, It is conceded, has richly earned the right to retire. He is 84 years old. was graduated from Harvard in 1861, had a brilliant civil war record, being three times wound ed, and has served on the supreme bench since 1902, when he was ap pointed by President Roosevelt. In pite of his advanced' age Justice Holmes Is keen of mind and has long been known as one or the courts hardest workers. Latterly lie has seemed not as robust as usual, but at the same time he has kept up IiIb end of the judicial duties in a manner to cause younger men to marvel. In view of the age of Justice Holmes It has been repeatedly rumored In re cent years that he "would retire. How ever, the work of the bench Is becom ing Increasingly burdensome. Thus far there is only vague specu lation as to who would succeed him. Undoubtedly democratic leaders would urge on the president the appointment of a democrat, on the ground that the party Is entitled to another member the court. This would bring up such names as those of Senator Under wood nnd former Sonator Shields of Tennessee. It would be discretionary with the president, however, whether he would name a republican or a democrat.
