Mary and her little lamb may be all right in the children’s readers, but they are out of place in an Atlanta apartment house. If you don’t believe it, ask pretty little Mary Calkins, the ld-year-old daughter of Frederick Carey Calkins', of the Lillian apartments, Juniper and Eighth Streets. Mary has a lamb, a hungry little “beastie,” which answers to the name of “Woolly,” and she is very indignant over the way her lamb has been treated. Somebody immortalized the original Mary and her lamb in verse; resi dents of the Lillian have tried to im mortalize little Mary’s pet with old shoes, alarm clocks, brushes and any thing else that happens to- be loose when the plaintive “Baa! Baa!” of the lamb bursts upon stillness of the night. Shouldn’t Mind Its “Ba-a.” Little Mary says the apartment house people do not know how to treat a lamb. They shouldn’t mind a little thing like being awakened at 2 a. m. by a lamb who is* rriournlng for the touch of its little mistress, she says. Instead of growling and fuss ing around, they should merely turn over and say: “Ain't that dear little lamb got a good voice?" “The people here think ‘Woolly's’ a goat." little Mary said this morning. “They give him the queerest things to eat. Almost every morning I find piles of old shoes and things lying all around him. ‘Woolly’ doesn’t eat shoes 1 think a man hit him with some thing once, because one morning 'Woolly' hpd a bump on the side of his head and he didn't want to play. Who Gave Him the Clock? “And one time I found an alarm clock lying right in front of his nose. As if ‘Woolly’ didn’t know enough to get up without a clock! I guess the man who threw it out of his window was afraid ‘Woolly’ would sleep too long* and miss his breakfast! I’d thank the man if I knew who he was, but I can’t find anyone who’ll say ho sent it!” But with all his virtues, and despite the love of his little mistress. “Wool ly” is doomed to an inglorious finish possibly he jvifl form a part of a de licious lamb stew some day. At any rate, he must leave the apartment house. "Papa says Woolly makes too much racket around here,” the little gi 1 said-, "and he says we have got to seli him.

BERLIN, May 2.- The German is less afraid to die than is the Amer ican, in the opinion of Dr. William Mayo, of Rochester, Minn. That emi nent surgeon to-day said that Amer icans made the work of men in his profession more difficult by demand ing and recognizing only success. "When a German is critically ill,” said Dr Mayo, "he and his family are willing to risk a difficult opera tion, while an American is more afraid to die and blames the surgeon who can not save his life. This is salutary, but discouraging for the surgeon." "What foreign nation could teach us most in surgery?” he was asked. "We can learn more from Ger many than from all the other Euro pean nations combined. It is the only country with a national surgery. Ours is cosmopolitan. Italy is mak ing wonderful progress in a modest way; in France, with a few excep tions, the surgeons are standing still; the young English surgeon must wait for a position; the Gorman must work for it. German success, therefore, is grounded on efficiency instead of longevity.” Dr. Mayo witnessed two difficult operations for cancer by the noted Berlin surgeons, Drs. Rotter and Buinm. He declares that the experi ments of treating ’cancer with radium and Roentgen rays have been dis appointing and that the use of the knife still is the best treatment.
