and doomed to failure, but was contrary to the spirit, of the

meth(uttJ'bi! tonsil removal In a long i
hurrungue in the official organ of
tlie SlinneMota State Xletlica asso
ciation the editor lays hlniself open
to a geptle rebuke from me. In
c a l'l f n g diathermy extirpation
"electric" he reminds me oif the
fioHtpn medical man who actually
published 'a book a few years ago
with i the title "Starvation, Treat
ment of Bluhetes." But then, we
doctors do not. always mean .ust
what we say. Tiatherniy extirpa
tion of the tonwils is ho more
"electric than surgical removal of
guillotine or' snare Is hydraulic.
Sly Minnesota colleagues, If any,
will be "disheartened to learn' that
this here now diathermy is accept
ed and used iy the leaders in vari
ous branches o'f surgery, as ah, Im
proverjient , ,oer 1 ordinary, .crudi?
cutting pi"ocedures.
, It requires more than a nifty
j 9.i8 (model. of Hurgfcal guillotine
or .hejlatest wrinkle In steel Svire
snares to extirpate tonsils with
diathermy ft. requires the train
ing AND experience of the ordi
nary nose and throat . specialist,
PL.US special technical equipment,
PLUS special training in .its use,
and extraordinary patience and de
licacy, in short the tenderness of
the artist, the true physician, the
real surgeon. ...
I .still believe' ordinary, surgical
tonsillectomy at best is a rather
brutal, crude and bungling perfor
mance. Of course diathermy extirpation
will never become the routine
method of the majority of . the
medical profession, for obvious
reasons. Need 1 be more explicit?
1 shall if the boys do not bring
their ubsurd campaign of passive
resistance to an end. The less said
about surgical tonsillectomy in the
newspapers the better fty our pro
fession. Hut I'll say it if I deem it
"hecesaary. ....
Day by day my own list of spe

pate tonsils with diathermy , is
growing. Faster and faster theyre
"accepting" the now method. Th$
erudite but unpractical, medical
Journal editors might as well com

KEEPING ON THR EARTH. .
i. By. Mary Graham Boiiuer.
"Of course :tt. would b,e nice."
began the Little. Black Cldcki . "for
Creology to toll
us why. we never
do fall off th.'
earth, consider
ing It is round
and It moves and
we go -traveling
all over it."
It was so nice
of the Little
Black Clock not
to net ns though
he knew' every
thing. . Cl e o 1 ocv. thn
.,. 4 m new4 'friend they
hod'jtist made- answered nt once,
right after Peggy had said that
she thought If was funny that
the earth was really moving when
no one felt it.
"Now think of cowh." she said,
"They don't look as though they
were on a moving earth."
"That's so." Cieology answered.
'We don't feel it at all.' he con
tinued, 'and we're held by a force
we do not see and do not feel.
It has .so much. 'to do wltl tthe
wonderful word we call gravita
tion.", .... , -
"That's a dreadful word." John
commented, and. the Little Black
Clock nodded.
"It means so nufch and" yet
it's so hard to describe," snid the
Little Black Clock.
"It means." said Oology, "the
power and force with which the
different hod leu in the universe
attract each other, or are drawn
toward each other. It's hard .to
understand, 1 think, because It's
something you can't see. You
know you belong to the earth and
you can't fall off it, but you can't1
see and you can't feel what Is
holding you on.
"When you throw a ball up In
the air It doesn't stay there. It's
gravitation that brings It down,
like an electric magnet."
"Yes like Newton nnd the ap
ple." John said.
"That's it." Geology agreed.
"Later." he added, alter a mo
ment, "you must meet my chil
dren. "You'll bring them back to see
me again, won't you?" he asked,
the Clock, and the Clock said ho
certainly would, and the children
said they'd give anything toneet
fleolony's children. They won
dered, to themselves, whnt they
would be like.
