and most delicate of all operations. The
mother and child, strango to rclato, aro
both doing well.
The credit of this operation is due en

assisted by Drs. ,). F. and 11. E. Cato,
The operation was performed under

who has won for himself by this surgical
feat a reputation that will give him great
additional prestige.

The laws of health are taught in tho
schools; but not in a way to uo of much
practicable benefit, and are never illus

many cases might easily be done. If
some scholar, who had just contracted a
cold, was brought before the school, so
that all could hear the dry, loud cough
and know its significance; see the thin
white coating on tho tongue, and later,
as the cold developed, seo the profuse
watery expectoration and thin watery
discharge from the nose, not one of them
would ever forget what the first symp
toms of a cold wero. The scholar should
then be given Chamborlalu’s Cough
Remedy freely, that all might see that
oven a severe cold could bo cured in one
or two days, or at least greatly miti
gated, when properly treated as soon as
the first symptoms appear. Tills romody
is famous for it's cures of coughs, colds
and croup. It is made especially for
