Some useful facts about appendicitis, Dr. Elliot emphasized the importance of “sending for the doctor without depresence of the disease. If it should be found necessary to use a knife to cut out the diseased vermiform appendix Dr. Elliot said that every minute gained for the doctor was equally in favor of the patient’s recovery. . Most people do not.) vermiform appendix is-lecat line be drawn from the right front point of the hip bone, or iliac crest, to the . navel, the.appendix is usually under the . ; middle of the line. With general pain . , in the abdomen and tenderness to pressure over this spot, fears of appendicitis . , are well warranted, and a physician should be called. The appendix was described as a short, wormlike tube from three to six and abundantly supplied with lymphoid tissue. The tonsils in the mouth are the most familiar examples of lymphoid tisis a readiness to become inflamed when poisoned by bacteria. As in tonsilitis, the inflammation of the appendix will burn itself out, except that in the latter case there is danger of the tube becoming perforated by its ulcerations and the inflamed contents leaking into the interstitial tissues ofthe abdomen. When the latter ‘happen, it is a case of cutting the thing out quickly or calling in the undertaker. Not all the cases reach this serious. stage,-and physicians have come to believe that if no symptoms of perforation appear—extreme fever, increased pain, much higher temperature, ete.—for three days, there are strong hopes of cure without the aid of the surgeon. The adverse symptoms come on very suddenly, however, and demand unhesitating surgery. Dr. Elliot pointed out that appendicitis was not. due to stray grape stones or other small objects getting caught in the tube. By far the greatest number of cases are traced to the poisoning of the lymphoid tissue by the escape into the ap ndix of the contents of the colon, the large intestine. Even at that the chances of having trouble depend mainly on the general tone of the system. The organs of the body, in perfect, or . even in fairly good health, are able to kill off bacteria that may invade them, the familiar dependence of tonsilitis on a “run down” condition of the health being exactly in line with the danger of having appendicitis. The prevention of the disease thus depends more on getting all the fresh air, sunshine and nutritive food that is possible than on the avoidance of grapes, cherries and the. like, that are popularly credited with appendicital danger. A curious relation has been noted between the disease and movements calling for a sustained bending of the body forward on the hips.

The shanties were squalid in the extreme, containing rude bunks about gvhich were hung the oilskins of the fishermen, from which a peculiar odor rose and mingled with that.of stale opium and old fish. In the corner of one of the shanties was a pagan temple, with some attempt at the splendors one sees in San Francisco. An odor of punk filled the air, and a Chinaman was rearranging the sandal sticks,while another prostrated himself before the shrine. This was the abode of the fisherman’s god, and before they went out to break the American law the shrimpers invoked this god to bring them good luck: In taking shrimps the fishermen use various nets—sturgeon trawls, fyke nets, bag nets and others of fine mesh. The bag net ie. about. 40 feet long—a huge cone with an opening 20 feet wide, grading down to a point. Near the mouth is a two-inch mesh; following this for ten or twelve feet it is reduced to one inch, while the bag has a mesh of but one-quarter to half an inch. These traps aré set between poles on the flats and cover the bottom, catching every shrimp and fish that appears. The nets are set mainly at night, often ‘being hauled between midnight and sunrise. The shrimps are brought in in large oumbers, rolled in baskets and the following morning placed in vats of boiling-water. In ten minutes they have assumed the delicate shrimp color. They are then taken out and placed on the level cleared spots and spread with brooms. Here they bake or*dry for five or six days, after which the men with the wooden shoes begin what has been referred to as the shrimp dance. The shoes are so heavy that the wearers cannot move with much agility, soa curious shuffle and jumping up and down is the result—a dance which, if seen, && Funeral Director and Embalmer.

The object of. the shrimp-dance, as has been described, is to pulverize the crustaceans; and pestles and hammers are also used to loosen the meat. From here they go to the basket shakers, who, by placing the crushed shrimps in baskets, a quart at a time, dislodge them from the shells. Some use a machine which winnows out the shells, the meat and the shells being shipped to China; the shells are used as a fertilizer about tea plants. The Chinese in China depend entirely on the San Francisco market for them, and a decade or so ago the amount of the yearly shipment was 769,660 pounds of shrimp nfeat, valued ‘at $76,000, and nearly 4,000,000 pounds of shells, valued at about $40,000.—Philadelphia Press, Not to Be Led Astray. would tempt you tot Second Tramp — Oh!I’ve dif'rent question —N.

The shanties were squalid in the extreme, containing rude bunks about gvhich were hung the oilskins of the fishermen, from which a peculiar odor rose and mingled with that.of stale opium and old fish. In the corner of one of the shanties was a pagan temple, with some attempt at the splendors one sees in San Francisco. An odor of punk filled the air, and a Chinaman was rearranging the sandal sticks,while another prostrated himself before the shrine. This was the abode of the fisherman’s god, and before they went out to break the American law the shrimpers invoked this god to bring them good luck: In taking shrimps the fishermen use various nets—sturgeon trawls, fyke nets, bag nets and others of fine mesh. The bag net ie. about. 40 feet long—a huge cone with an opening 20 feet wide, grading down to a point. Near the mouth is a two-inch mesh; following this for ten or twelve feet it is reduced to one inch, while the bag has a mesh of but one-quarter to half an inch. These traps aré set between poles on the flats and cover the bottom, catching every shrimp and fish that appears. The nets are set mainly at night, often ‘being hauled between midnight and sunrise. The shrimps are brought in in large oumbers, rolled in baskets and the following morning placed in vats of boiling-water. In ten minutes they have assumed the delicate shrimp color. They are then taken out and placed on the level cleared spots and spread with brooms. Here they bake or*dry for five or six days, after which the men with the wooden shoes begin what has been referred to as the shrimp dance. The shoes are so heavy that the wearers cannot move with much agility, soa curious shuffle and jumping up and down is the result—a dance which, if seen, && Funeral Director and Embalmer.

The object of. the shrimp-dance, as has been described, is to pulverize the crustaceans; and pestles and hammers are also used to loosen the meat. From here they go to the basket shakers, who, by placing the crushed shrimps in baskets, a quart at a time, dislodge them from the shells. Some use a machine which winnows out the shells, the meat and the shells being shipped to China; the shells are used as a fertilizer about tea plants. The Chinese in China depend entirely on the San Francisco market for them, and a decade or so ago the amount of the yearly shipment was 769,660 pounds of shrimp nfeat, valued ‘at $76,000, and nearly 4,000,000 pounds of shells, valued at about $40,000.—Philadelphia Press, Not to Be Led Astray. would tempt you tot Second Tramp — Oh!I’ve dif'rent question —N.
