The Progrreaa Science Has Made In
Two Hundred Year*.
A centuipr ago the work of the mod
ern
surgeon would have been denounc
ed by the theologians, who then ruled
mankind, as audacious intrusions into
the exclusive jurisdiction of God. Two
centuries ago, or, at the furthest,
three, the man of science who would
take out the Viscera of a man, cut out
their disease and put them back would
bave been fortunate to escape the
stake or the block. But the audacious
invader of the secrets of tl»e body, the
beneficent healer wlio^wjth his vial
nor his knife, lessens the miseries of
humanity, diminishes or destroy!* pain,
prolongs life and smooths its j^itlnvay
to the grave—this is now the man who
appeals most strongly to his fellow
beings. For hina and his training the
captains of industry are gouring out
their millions, building him colleges
and laboratories, endowing professor
ships. while the world at large hails
him as a man of power and influence
at a time when wealth is accumulating
and when men are not decaying. More
and more, very likely, we shall see the
strong men. of the college classes
choosing medicine, although the time
has not yet come for domination over
the lawyer, who is now engaged in
settling the direction aud the form in
which the captains of industry shall
carry on their development of the
world's wealth. The time seoms to b"
cpming. however, when the indefinite
prolongation oAiuinan life and the de
struction of the enemies of hmr.au
health, a work which almost suggest
the creative power, will be the t:»r-'
that will call for and will-receive
service of the best training of our 1
leges and universities—that is. W'T

will be addressed inevitably to'. tli"

WHAT "WHIRLERS" ARE.
•And the Incident F^om Which It I*
Said They Got Their Name.
"There was a dealer in haberdash
ery." said a college professor, "to whom
0 teamster once came i'.nd said. *1 want
to get a pair of whirl:?rs. sir.'
'Whirlers?' said the haberdasher.
•What on earth are whirlers'i'
"'Why. stockings'with'the' Teet cut
out,' the teamster answered.
"'Oh!' said the haberdasher. "Well,
1 haven't any whirlers. but I've got
spnie very excellent stockings. Sup
pose I show you some.'
"'All right.' the teamster said.
"So the lmuerdashcr exhibited the
best stockings he had In his shop, and
the other selected a tiue pair, saying:
," 'I suppose you don't mind making
Whirlers out of them for me?*
f'^'Not at all.' retorted the other, and
jfvith a pair of shears he cut the feet
the stockings.
'Now,' said the teamster, 'how
'much are they?'
'Fifty cents, the Same a#-.before, of
course.'
-'"Fifty cents? Why. I never paid
'ihore than 10 cents anywhere.' said the
^tynstev.. and. h? smiled me^ipiagly and
made as If to depart.

•1^ Cold Blooded Gambler.
Th# French court was at one time a
hotbed of gambling. Louis XIV. would
play for heavy stakes night after night,
and many courtiers were ruined at his
table. Ills successor, who lacked his
predecessor's geniality and good na
ture. was an even greater devotee of
the card table. The story is told that
when this king was playing one even
ing a gentleman present was seized
with apoplexy. "M. de Chauvelin is
ill," one of the courtiers ventured to
tell Louis. "111!" said the king, quite
unmoved. "He Is dead. Take, him
away. SffodeS are trumps, gentlemen/'

Professor, \li\art pro.ved that there
