KNIFE FOR

THE ELECTRIC

OPERATION

While many of us know about re- moving tonsils by clectro-surgery. we may not know that this method, the “electric knife" as it is called, also is used for other operations. (The method-elretro-coagulation- involves using a high frequency current instead of a knife and scis- sors: it destroys the tissues by re- moving all their fluids.)

When and why is this "electric knife" method used?

In "Clinical Medicine." Dr. Gua- tavus M. Bloch. CWCBSO. 51119! that the principal reasons for use of this method, now an a-bsolutenec- essity in nerve and brain surgery. are: 1. Tissues are divided with a least amount of injury; all cells. dangerous and not dangerous. are destroyed by coagulation. 2. Small blood vessels are sealed or closed by this method. preventing further bleeding and the need for gauze sponglng, which irritates the sur- face tissue when the surgical knife is used. 3. Pain following the oper- ation is slight because of the blunting of the ends of nerves. " \

The electro-coagulaticn method removes all malignant cells (dan- gerous, such as cancer cells) or suspected malignant structures to avoid carrying malignant cells into the gystem, thus reducing chances of starting a erowth team") "1 other pa-rts of the body.

‘Ellen 's Diary

By an Island Farmer's Wife {Oi

And so it was as James bad ex- pected "a nice llttle run" this after- nnon, \vbich finally brought the end of the wood-sawing. In a light snowfall it was completed. to leave us with a supply \\'Iill‘l"l assures housewives at Alderlcn of glowing hearth-fires. for at least n year ahead. The engine generating the power for the work. and often list- less of late, purred comfortingly as the endeavour progressed to- wards its close. It was quite as regular and peaceful a tuno as that which Tabby our old mother cat sings lo\v in one’! ear. when she is curled in sleep on the couch, warm in the sunlight 0r perhaps later in the quiet of evening. And then since it fitted in with our farmers‘ spare time. the sound of the sawing had scarcely died away, before horses were hitched and they were off tn bring the threshing- ccar from its storing in a barn at the other farm. The threshing. Jeanie and I stispect ls to be in the immediate future.

O O O

"And how is it that at Aldcrlca. you have Winter or Spring thresh- ing. as well as that In the Au- tumn?“ n visitor once asked. I suppose that if it were convenient and our farmers liad space f0 Ienve the machine in readiness in the “strnu” barn. \vc should then throsh "rallys" as the occasion presented itsclf. But failing tliis- wvhlch per- haps may be nmong Jnmes‘ more sanguine honcs. as much as lofts will hold is thrcshcd in the harvest- tlmc. from the field. And what an idonl time it. is tlicn, with small hroozcs setting ivhispers in the sheaves. and mellow sunlight over the land. And cricket song, and afar. beyond the fields from WIYWICP now come the biting winds, a still Autumnal haze. to make one sorry that time should move onward to the colder seasor-s—thosc days nrc sn vilr-nsrnt. And lliere comes nn end to that threshing. and ftclrls nrc loft lmrc. except for the golden- rod and blue nstcrs tucked in fence nooks. nnrl the strange pattern left by the binder there.

Then in the turn of the months. there is ‘hound to co e a day when lofts are baring. and c bins in the granary sadly depleted of their colden treasure. Bnrinr, ‘but. oh dear, not. bare nt all. for James could not suffer such n time to appear, Think of tho distressing consequences. should nll such food be gone. and an unexpected snow storm arise! What pitiful lowlngs. and neizhimzs and blcatings there would be! It is when a certain beam which indicates the ebb, ap- pears, we busy with our indoor work overhear in casual tones that ncverthelessdenotc much intention, "Guess we'll have to thrcsli soon." And the other agrees. “that's what I was thinking-about the first nf the week. if it's fine. “Usually. this threshing hrinrzs the end or it. if lofts will hold all the straw, but speaking only moments ago to Jeanie nnd me. a bit anxious over its duration. since welcome as it is. it does disturb the "even tenor of our ways". "That's it“, James suld. "we just may lmve to leave some. for later". and beaming. "isn't it good to have it to thresh?"

O O I

St. Valentine Day's return brought a light fall of snow to blanket fields and hilltops, not to any depth. but only to mould fur- rows softly and to cover the bare- drab places. It brought a flurry of Valentines from her small friends to grand-daughter. old enough now to enjoy them, though rather be- wildered at the array with which fortune favored her. and plainly puzzled in making a chﬂce among them. since all are so bewltchlng. and colorful. Each one in turn was carefully scanned. admired and ob- vlously much appreciated.

"Did I ever what?" James laugh- ed at Jcanie's question this morn- ing, "dld I ever send a Valentine to anyone? Well, if I did, it's so far buck that I'm afraid I can't re- member it-—but really I don't. think that I would!" And lt is likely

DOROTHY DIX SAYS-

lJead Love

Unhappy Husband Admins. Wife, Yer Wants To Wed Another

DEAR MISS DIX: I am a married man with two children. I have been married for 16 years. but for the last three years I have been in love with a (iivorced woman who also has two children. I have no fault to find with my wife. She is a good woman. as fine as they come. She has worked for rne and stuck by me through all our hard times. She has known poverty and heartaches, as we lost two children in death. ButI don't love her. Yet I don't want to hurt her as I know she loves me.

I am not happy living this way as I want to marry the other woman. Would I be wrong in telling my wife?

VERY UNl-IAPPY

ANSWER: You do not have to tell your wife that

you are tired‘. of her, that you have ceased to care for her and that you want to break all ties that bind you to her. No woman in the world is so stupid that she doesn't know when her husband no longer loves lier and when some other woman has taken her place in liis affections. Wives are clairvoyant and they know almost lo the minute when their husbands‘ love cools off from fever heat to sub- normal. No matter how much a wife tries to fool herself, she knows in her heart just exactly ho\v much, or how little, hcr husband cares for her. When the time comes when his kisses are nothing but a perfunctory peck on tho cheek, she has heard the bell toll for her love life. Many a wife who loses the husband she adores plays blind, but she knows.

PITIFUL FIGURE

In all the world there is no more pitiful figure than the woman who has slaved and sacrificed and literally pushed her husband into success. only to find out that he had lost his taste for her and that she bored lilm to tears. And no one knows how to solve this sad problem. You can't bring back youth and enthusiasm and beauty. You can't revive a dcad love. Divorce is bought at the price of a heartbreak and helpless children's lives are wrecked by their parents. It is just one of those things.

DEAR MISS DIX: I find myself desperately in love with a boy of 1B, which makes him 20 years younger than I am. I have never been married and I have a responsible job with a good income. This ydung man works near me and I am having a difficult time concentrating on my work.

If I married this youth, I would be able to send him to college and give him a good start. Do you think that it would be morally wrong to marry him, or just unconventional? We are both madly in love, but would like your opinion before making a decision. Could this difference in age have any bad effect on true love?

DESPERATE FLOSSIE

ANSWER: If your Boy Friend were 28 years old instead of being 18. the fact that you were 20 years older than he need not be an in- superable bar to your marriage. ‘For a man of 28 is mature. He is old enough to know what he wants in marriage, whut type of woman ap- peals to him and interests him. His tastes are settled and he is not apt to change them. I-Ie knows whether his fancy runs to bobby-soxers or to middle-aged women. ‘

But it is different with a boy of 18. l-Ie is at the hobbledehoy stage of development and neither he nor anyone else has the slightest idea of what he is going to be when lie is a man. In all probability he will he in love with a dozen different types of girls and have a hundred different ambitions before he really settles down to life. And that ‘s why it is taking n great risk for a clever woman, such as you are, to take a boy to rear.

Believe mo, sister. youth nnd age do not mix. No woman who had a husband 20 years younger than she could keep from bosslng him, be- cause she would see so clearly the follies and blunders that youth com- mits. And no boy of 18 would rather sit with the elders than to dance with the cuties. ' |

DEAR DOROTHY DIX: I am a young woman of 25 very much in love with a fine man and we want to be married soon, but this is my problem: I am the main support of my family, although I have three brothers who help a little. My mother says that I should give up all thoughts of marriage as it is my duty to take care of her and my father.

l am willing to work after marriage and give some money to my people, but must I give up the man I love for the sake of my parents?

ELIZABETH H. Certainly not. Your family has no right to-demand such a‘ sacrifice from you. Argue no more with them. Just step out and marry your young man. I should think that your three brothers could take care of your mother and father.

LOVE AND TRAGEDY AT LENNOX ISLAND

On June 30, I534. the day that Jacques Cartier discovered the "Garden 0f the Gulf." twenty canoes filled with Mohawks from Upper Canada swept down on the Mlcmacs of Lennox Island. almost wiping out the entire tribe. The following translation from the Micmac language tells us nf the love story and tragedy. Sometime during the year of i533 a party of red men from Lennox Island sought refuge in the camp of the fierce and warlike Mohawkl, where they were hospliably cntlb tained till the great thunderstorm had abated. , Though coming from the lund of beautiful maidens, one of the braves, by the name of llnnnibolla, fell in love with a Mohatvk prin- cess, calléd Maloblnnah. at the Indian village where they were be- ing entertained. Although the courtship had been carried on in the dark, Hanni- bolla's movements were known to the Mohawks, who were very in- dignant at the thought of a stran- gfr making love to the beautiful

alobinnah; and on the night il-Innnihoiiu hnd planned to elope iwith the princess a number of war- riors concealed themselves near the shore. determined that their fair one would not be taken away by the departing Micmacs.

But by cunning strntcgy the pair eluded those in ambush and made thcir escape.

The princess‘ sire, Chief Black Foot. vowed revenge and soon be- gan preparations for n sunguinnry expedition to the Island of the Micmacs, which. owing to the late- ness of the season. did not material- ize until the following June of I534.

When the Micmacs sighted the canoes nf the enemy they realized that resistance would be useless. for, should they be successful in routing the invaders. they knew that others would follow in their wake, as the Mohawks were e proud race that ncvcr failed to re- venge an insult or not of treach- cry.
