AFTER A TRANSFUSION OF BLOOD

By DONALD CHAMBERLIN

John Runlet was a tine, sturdy fellow until he fell ill with impoverish ment of the blood. lie was a tine swimmer, skater, boxer, fencer, a champion in tennis ami one of the best ball twirlers in the country. But when sickness overcame him he lost bis strength and even his life was in danger. Drs. Ilammersly and Phipps. his physicians, consulted on his case and came to the conclusion that they bad better resort to transfusion of blood. It was not easy to find one who was willing to give up sufficient blood to fill Jack Runlet’s veins, for they were of no ordinary capacity, but several persons volunteered to give each a portion, and in this way the whole was obtained. Runlet was a favorite among women, and two of his sweethearts responded to the call, though neither knew of the offer of the other. Two men, Jack's most intimate friends, offered to give their quantum of blood, and after the four transfusions were effected the patient had in him the blood drawn from two women and two men.

Maud Scarborough and Delia Thorne were the women and Ned Summerfield and George Smith the men. The operators would have preferred that the blood should be transfused in a mixed state. This was because they expected the patient would be affected by the peculiarities of the persons from whom It came, and it would be better that these traits should in a measure neutralize one another. But the operations must be performed separately. IDiulet became well again, thanks to these devoted friends, but not himself. There was very little of his own blood left in him—indeed, he .was four other persons in turn. When the blood of one of the women was sent out from his heart he was much like that woman, and since only half of him was man he was manly but half of the time.

When he regained his health and strength the baseball season was open Ing, and he resumed his position as pitcher, but he was found to be unreliable. At times he had his usual strength, while at others he seemed to have lost it, both of will and muscle. He concealed his weakness as well as he could, but It was unfortunate that he did so. It would have been better for him to retire. When a match game of great importance was being played a frightened mouse ran across the diamond. Doubtless the blood of one of the women with which his arteries were filled was at the moment being sent through his system, for he became paralyzed with fear. Running to the grand stand, he stood upon one of the plank seats and could not be Induced to come down.

But few of those present knew the cause of Runlet’s cowardice, though none could understand why a man should be afraid of a mouse. / . any rate, the game was broken up. for Run let, covered by shame, left the Heid. The next day he went to his doctors to learn what was the matter with him. They looked at each other knowingly, but thought it best that he should not be enlightened. So to get rid of him they told him he needed rest. The next time a game of importance came off Runlet took his place among the spectators instead of in the box. He had doubtless been under the Influence of the blood he had received from one of his women contributors, for he had nearly all that day been acting effeminately. He had been very particular about his clothes, putting on a particolored scarf with a diamond stickpin in It. and had purloined all bls sister’s rings, which he put on his Angers. He went to the baseball match with a lady's fan in bls band and while waiting for the game to begin alternately fanned himself and sniffed at a bunch of violets pinned to his shirt bosom.

Not a man of his old chums would speak to him. They remembered his desertion of his post at a former game, and now to see him sitting bedizened with Jewelry, swinging a fan and snuffing at flowers excited their full contempt. As for the women specta tors, they were very much amused at his actions.

Runlet’s chib had not found a pitcher to take his place. It lost steadily, and by the end of the fifth inning all hope of winning the game left them. It is a disputed point what caused a sudden throwing off of Runlet’s es feminacy. The doctors who transfused the blood into him contend that a" quantum of woman's blood, which had been thrown through the heart, suddenly gave place to that of a man. Be this as it may. Jack Runlet, bedizened as he was. vaulted the rail that separated him from the field, jumped down into the diamond and demanded the ball. A'shout arose, with cries of “Try him again!’’ “Give ft to him!’’ and the dike. Some one tossed the ball to him, and by a succession of remarkable curves lie put out every.one who attempted to handle the bat froln then to the end of the ninth inning, winning the game handsomely. Tlie doctors are now consulting Low to get him back to the unbroken masculine condition lie was in before it became necessary to put new blood in him. Dr Hammersly has suggested letting out blood whenever he is effeminate. supplying the deficiency with that of a sturdy man. This .will doubtless be done.

Brooklyn TABERNACLE

C-Vt-* BIBLE«STU£>Y • ON to/E are unprofitable servants. Luke 17:1-10—May 24. ‘ fflorieth, let him ylory in the Lord.” —1 Corinthian* l:3t. CODAY’S lesson Is in four sections, each apparently distinct and separate. Nevertheless, they manifest the Wisdom from Above. We shall consider them in their order. Our Influence Upon Others. The , word offenses signifies stumblings. ensnareinents. Jesus' consecrated followers are called little ones, because they are New Creatures, started in the way of full consecration to God's will. However, there should be growth In grace, knowledge, love. Strength of character should be attained, which would be not only wise l , strong, difficult to ensnare, but able also to assist others less developed. The dangers of ensnarement exist because Satiin has the majority of mankind more or less under his influ-ence-blinded by error, superstition, sin. etc. “The god of this world has blinded the minds of them that believe not.’’ (2 Corinthians 4:4.) That Jesus did not refer to Infants Is manifest from the words, "One of these 1 little ones which believe In Me."—Matt. 18:ti, Jesus would not unjustly condemn anybody for ignorantly or unintentionally offending His followers. We must suppose that He meant to caution those who would deliberately attempt to deceive, entrap, discourage. Ills little ones. We have all heard of deliberate, intelligent plotting against the Lord's followers. To whatever extent this may prevail, It has Indicated the satanic spirit. One drowned in the sea would lose merely his present life. During the Mil lennluin, after he had been awakened

from the death sleep, he would have full opportunity for recovery from sin and death. But those who Intelligently persecute Jesus’ followers so degrade themselves morally that it will be much more difficult for them to come Into accord with the.

New Dispensation. Whoever sins against knowledge endangers his opportunities for life everlasting. A Forgiving Spirit Necessary. Verses 3 and 4 are apparently a part of the discourse recorded in Matthew 18:15-22. The lesson Is for Jesus’ followers, not the world, as shown by the Injunction that, If necessary, the matter come before the Church. The basis of the argument Is that all need Divine mercy, because all are Imperfect; and that to assist us to cultivate this grace, the Lord has arranged that His blessings shall be tiependent upon our endeavor to exercise this Godlike quality. It seems strange that our forefathers and ourselves were so deceived by what St. Paul styles “doctrines of devils” (1 Timothy 4:1) that once wo thought of our Heavenly Father as absolutely unforgiving because His human creatures had sinned. We Insisted that the wage of sin must be eternal torment. How little we understood the real character of the God of all grace, the Father of mercies! Faith Power—Credulity Power. A great deal which passes for faith is mere credulity. The faith commended in the Bible relates to things which God has promised. We are encouraged not to question His ability to accomplish all His good promises. Our forefathers had too much confidence in men. They swallowed the creeds of the Dark Ages; and the more absurd the proposition, the more faith they thought they had. They should have said, “Where has God declared such things?" Those who defended the creeds cried out against sober faith, branded it heresy and burned the truly faithful at the stake. In our lesson. Jesus' disciples asked Him to Increase their faith. His re-

sea, proper faith on their part would bring the desired results. 1 But God gave no such command. Hence faith would have no basis for operation In such cases, Some amongst Christ’s followers are naturally progressive, aggressive or self-cojieeited. BtH-omiiig His disciple* does 'not change these natural 'traits instantly.' Old tilings pass away gradually. These classes must remember that the work of God’s grace is His favor toward them; and that obedience to His commands is primarily for (heir development. We are all unprofitable servants. ,in that God could easily do without us None of us is indispensable to his work or His glory. Quite the contrary, the opportunity for* entering into the Lord’s vineyard and laboring therein is chiefly for our own advantage. The service brings us experiences necessary for our qualification for higher service beyond the veil.
