TALKED ON TABLE ■ 11 R Chris Keifer Talked to Physicians While They Performed Wonderful OPERATION UPON HIM Local Anestheia Given— New Opening for Stomach—First of Kind. • One of the most wonderful ouerations, and probably the first one of its kind ever undertaken by physicians or specialists in the state of Indiana was performed this morning at tbe Decatur hospital on Mr. Christian Keifer of near Preble, Ind., by Dr. E. J. McOscar of Fort Wayne and Dr. I). D. Clara of this city, assisted by Dr. C. S. Clark and Dr. J. N. Gt endstaff. It was a wonderful operation for the reason that the stom aeh of the patient was taken out and a new opening made into the bowels.’ was put back into place and an extraordinary performance, because the patient did not take the usual anaesthetic and that he talked to the physicians while they were performing the serious and dangerous ordeal. The operation will probably be the first or at least numbered among the first one in the state of Indiana at which the late discovery in the medical world, the local anestheia was ever used on a patient. With the using of the local anestheia the patient is not put to sleep. The serum is merely injected with a needle into the body and the patient is conscious of what is going on. Mr. Keifer had been suffering for more than two years as a reult of the lower opening of the stomach growing shut. On account of a weak heart, physicians and specialists who attended him could not administer the ether anaesthetic and therefore the operation could not be performed before. The operation lasted aboyt one hour and in all probability will be a successful one, as Mr. Keifer was resting quite well this afternoon. Mr. Keifer is a son of Jacob N. Keifer of near Preble and is twenty-eight years old. The performing of the operation was the only hope of prolonging life, or obtaining any relief from his intense suffering.

POISONED BY THOUSANDS! (By L. H. Smith, M. D.)

The victims of auto-intoxication are many thousands every day. By reason of the toxins, or poisons, bred in the intestines, these poisonous bacteria are sent ail through the blood channels and the victim feels tired, sleepy and heahachy, or the brain doesn’t work as usual. Tbe best of treatment for this is to drinft hot water before breakfast —plenty of water all day and procure a supply of Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets, made of Mayapple, leaves of aloes, etc., with no calomel, entirely vegetable. which can be obtained at drug stores for 25 cents. Equally, important is it to cleanse, kidneys and bladder, and drinking plentifully of pure water will cleanse them to a certain extent. Then ob- j tain at the. drug store a little Anuric. This is to be had in 50-cent packages. ;

Anuric should be taken before meals. It is many times more potent, than lithia, dissolving uric acid as water does sugar. Dr. Weir Mitchell once said: “What we call diseases are only symptoms of conditions. Allow the man’s vitality to be reduced to a certain point ami he is ripe for any of these weak/ nesses, or certain conditions which we call disease.” Through failure of kidneys to act, through congestion, inflammation, any per:oil's condition is ripe for disease to fasten its hold upon the system. Anuric lias been tested for the past Jew years for kidney, bladder, uric acid troubles, rheumatism, gout, and sui K ailments as follow, and so many cases both acute and stubborn have . yielded to this wonderful remedy i ibat I do not hesitate to recommend lit.
