Something About a Famous Telc phone Case in That State. uut in lowa a person may even "cuss" Into his telephone and the supreme Court of that state has decided that the 'phone company cannot remove the Instrument from his domicile on that account. Iowa evidently needs missionaries." The Citizen, July 14th, 1901). The writer does not call tho at tcntlon of The Citizen and Its ninny readers to the above on the editor ial page of that excellent paper uecauso no thinks Iowa does not need missionaries, for these good men are needed In Iowa and In every state for that matter, but It may bo worth while to keep history straight. Xo doubt tho decision referred to was made in the case, Huffman vs. Marcy Mutual Telephone Co., Juno .i". 1 HO!), and reported In Northwestern Reporter, 1033. I lie court finds the facts the language complained of, used uy a patron of a telephone line In a farming district, whom there were six patrous, and tho manager Informed the offender "that such language over tho line could not be tolerated, and that unless ho quit disturbing tho line, he would take out his telephone." uie court further finds "there was no evidence of Improper lan guage or of any disturbance "af ter this notice was given, and that the telephone was removed two months from tho time of tin. notice. The action was brought to com pel the defendant company to Piaco a telephone In plaintiff's residence, and furnish hiui service over Its lino. Tho court, after stating the well known rule that telephone com panies are common carriers ot' in telligence and news, nro bound to afford equal facilities to all in like situations, 'and that thoy "must supply all alike," who are alike, and cannot discriminate against "any one," uses tho follow ing language: "Xo ono can well de lend tho language employed by Plaintiff. As a witness, he admitted Its Impropriety. And though not chargeable with all the disturbance on the line, we entertain no doubt uui urnc ootn lie, and one of his children at least, had abused the privilege aitorded them, and so far ignored the golden rule as to have made use of tho line as a vehicle of petty spite toward two ol his neighbors. Rut it does not appear that they persisted upon being warned that such conduct would not be tolerated, nor that they were guilty of any impropriety thereafter during the .two months intervening between such warning and the removal of the telephone" On the above finding of facts, the court ordered the telephone put back In plaintiffs residence. Tho court in riuito an PTton,i,i opinion, takes occason in language other than above quoted to show It has no sympathy with tho of improper talk over tolonhmm lines, and vigorously the same.

CURTAILING THE HUMAN MACHINE. The great surgical experts con tinue to find parts of the human machine which aro of no apparent use or which are indeed a clog on health. In short, It is being prov ed that a person may be relieved of a considerable part of his work and be all tho better for it. A number of patients aflllcted with chronic stomach trouble . have been made well by having their stomachs tak en out bodily It being obvious that If you havo no stomach you cannot havo stomach trouble. Tho snip ping off of the appendix has become so common that the operation is no longer considered fashionable but now comes something new. it s just tills: the colon or large Intestine Is found to bo a worse than useless part of the human anatomy; so, away with it; Motchnikoff, tho great Russian bacteriologist, sever al years ago advanced tho theory that since the large Intestine is the breeding place of tho majority of harmful germs in the human body, it would bo a benefit to health to havo this organ removed, especially as It serves no essential purpose. Dr. DIstaso, the French surgeon, has been mnking some demonstrations on the lino of Mctchuikoff's theory, and as a result of systematic opera tions and tests at St. Mary's hospital In Loudon he now announces It as a proved fact that the removal of tho largo Intestine will contribute to good health and long life. The large Intestine has never stood well with the medical profi's Hlon, but they have never quite known how to better the situation until the proposition came up to cut tho Cordlan knot by simply re moving the offending member and splicing the loose ends of the ali mentary canal together. Unpleasant as it may bo to contemnlato. It Is fact well known to investigators that the average person carries a veritable menagerie In his colon. It Is safe to say that If people were to know tho actual conditions pres ent in this organ In their own case they would bo so wrought up that thoy would have no peace until these conditions were changed. It s not necessary to go hero into the many ailments which can be laid directly to tho unsanitary condition of tho largo intestine; practically every person is more or less a vic tim of "auto-lntoxicatlon," or self poisonlng, due to the reabsorption nto the system of the toxins present in this organ. Dr. DIstaso has been making ob servations on a number of persons who for a year or more have been lhing with their colon removed, j and he finds that their health is I greatly Improved. He is now tak ing two of these subjects to Paris to be observed further at the Pasteur Institute. Every child should have its large intestine, as well as tho appendix removed, he says, and he adds: "My experiments havo prov ed wo would all of us be bettor off without the lower intestine, which is nothing more or less than an ideal breeding place for disease germs. Almost every chronic disease may bo traced back to the action of these germs chronic heart dis ease, arterie sclerosis, and most kinds of headaches being examples." To those who would avoid such an operation and still possess tho maximum of health ho recommends a diet which includes very little j meat and an abundance -of green vegetables. Eggs are as objec tionable as meat, he declares, since they develop poisons in the large j intestine. Tea and coffee are both , bad, but an abundance of water should be drunk, he tells us.
