AN ARTIFICIAL NOSE PLACED ON
LADY-The Indianapolis Journal says One
OF the greastest achievement in surgi cal
science which we have heard Of for some
time was the manufacture Of q good, we'll
shaped nose on the face of q female patient
at the Surgical Institute, in this city, q f. "
weeks ago. The young lady's nose had been
eaten OFF by disease, and she was sent to tue
Institute TO have 1t replaced by new one,
which delicate and skillful piece OF work-
maDship could only be performed where
surgical science had attained something
like perfection. An operation was PERFORM
ed, and after a few weeks of omparatively
painless waiting, well formed nose repaid
the patient for her slight suffering.

They tell this story of Ralph
Waldo Emerson;
His best thoughts we're apt to
strike him after he had gone to bed.
Once calmly resigned to rest, ready
for dreams, sparkling notions began
to fit through his brain. He knew
if he did not catch them then, they
would vanish, never to return. So
up he gets, strikes a light, and
makes his nocturnal notes.
One night the philosopher had
risen from his bed, and was cropping
around in the dark for a card Of
misplaced matches. His hand at
length came in contact with his
wife's acknowledgement tortoise
she'll comb, which he mistook for o
card of lucifers. One after an
other he snapped away the teeth,
trying to light them on the wall,
until not one was left. His loud
and emphatic mutterings of disap-
pointment aroused Mrs. Emerson.
What on earth, husband, are
you doing there in the dark 7"
"Only a thought | had in my
mind, my love"
But the thought had fed, and
still in the dark, he went to bed.
