Simple Keliof Operations. There are many . irnplo opera tions which the physician might C ten employ to the groat relief of his palicnt?, which, however, are re sistejl through ignorance of their nature and- % wholly c ronenus idm of the attendant dangerous. Among >ucli operations is tapping Ihe abdomen where the bowels art* much distended with gas and relief in the natural way is difficult or impossible, owing to some obstruc tion. This operation has for years been practiced by veteri navies in iheir treatment of animals, espe eially in what passes under the head of colic. Farmers, themselv es, often resort to it when cows are so attacked, and the instrument sometimes used by them is the small blade of a jack knife. As it ir performed on the human person if is very simple and practically safe, and when a physician et re pute advises it the patient or Ids friends ought not to impose any ob jection. 1 lie relief it affords is al ways immediate and cpiite com plete, at least for a time. Physi cians use what is known as a tro car. That is a quite sharp pointed jod, over which is nicely lifted a thin metallic tube. Both the tubo and the rod are pressed through in to the intestine; then the rod is withdrawn, leaving the tube tor gas to pass out of. After it has ail been evacuated the tube is withdrawn. The trocar use and for Ihe purpose is always a small ene, and the hole made, by it closes completely on its removal, the same sold ©f in strument, but of larger size, is us ed in tapping Ilia abiotnen where the same is distended with a drop sical effusion. If is a poor time to familiarize a patient with an oper ation when it has become imperii live. Of such as are often demand ed. people should have at le,*.st a general idea, then they vviil not be likely to be terrorized at the bare mention of them.—[Boston Herald A Traveling Finlainhropist. Tfcer* were e gbt of u who got off at the junction to wait two hours for the train on the other road. It was a KtnaU building in the ocuatry, with out a house in sight, and no platform t> walk on. The (tingle railroad offi cial was asleep on some bags of wool in the freight shed, and the clock in the waiting roun had dropped dead htill. As we sat down on rhe hard benches in the waiting room, one of the men opened his grip and took out an eight page newspaper. Net one of 'the rest of ns had a thing to read. No r oing this he carefully cut the pages 'p srt, then cut each page in half and passing around he said: “Gentlemen, I never did like a hog. Each of us will take an eighth, and as hfit as we read, we will exchange wi h each other.’’ JR-icii one took a part and made if hie business to read it, ar.d the last man had just got down to a oiortgago sale and the death notice of two twiiiS when the two hours expired and the train drew up.— [New York Sun.

But whereas Dumas could turn out books that liv<\ whoever his assist ants were, could any ot his assist aids write books that live without Dumas? Upon my \void,one might as well call any barrister'in goo i practice a thief and an impost.-r*! e cause he lias juniors fo “devil” hr him, as make charges of ihij kind against Dumas, lie once asked his son to help him; the younger Alexandre declined. ‘‘lt is wor h a thousand a year, and you have only 1o make objections, the sire urged. But the son was not to bo iempted. Some excellent novel ists of to-day would be much bet fur if they employed a friend lo make objections. But, as a rule, the collaborator did much more. Dumas’ method, apparently, was first to talk the subject over with his aid-decamp. This is an excel lent practice, as ideas are knocked out like sparks (an elderly illus Iration.) by ihe contact of minds. Then the young man probably made researches, put a rough sketch on paper and supplied Du mas, as it were, with his ‘'brief”— and wrote tho novel, lie gave it life, he gave it the spark, letincelle; and ihe story lived and moved.— [Andrew Lang in Scribner. More Uses for (he Phonograph, A recent Italian scientific paper reports that Americans have re cently found it to be practicable to apply the phonograph to 'ocomo tive whistles. Whelherfin's state ment has any foundation er no! makes no difference; the idea is worthy of American genius. What a convenience it would be to have lhe whistle shout, in a stentorian voice, “Hoosac Junc tion! .Ten minutes for refresh rue.its!'’ How it would save the brakeman ids indishne; enuncia tion! What a pleasure to all trav elers, if the conventional old lady were periodically iuformed that the train was jmt twominul.es late and. there was no ice water in the baggage car! But since it has been found that, by the mere substitution ©f a me talic cylinder for a wax one, it can bo made to talk loudly, there is no end to the possible uses to which it may be put. Hitherto it has been proposed to employ it only as a substitute for the loquacious re porter in his various capacities. But now we may ai any time ex pect t© sea the deaf and dumb mute listening to a conversation through the medium of an audi phene, and replying in perfect En glish, with an instrument which is a storehouse of sylables, naanjpu lated as one would manipulate the characters in a typewriter.
