was determined to 60 TO Dundee, notwith-

prudent lady tookipans to have the cab

MAKING NOSE OUT OF FINGER END.
The doctors of Bellevue hospital at
New York are transforming Thomas
Couter's finger end into nose. Coulter
is q years old, and lost his nose by lupoid,
malady closely related to the cancer,
which destroys every tissue with which it
comes in contact. The progress of the
disease was arrested at Bellevue hospital
two years ago. but it left the face wofully
disfigured, with depression where the
nose should have been, and the skin so
contracted that the lower eyclids were
inverted, exposing the mucous membrane
of the eye. A plastic operation was per-
formed at the hospital year ago which
nearly restored the eyes to their normal
condition, and having heard that an En-.
glish surgeon at Birmingham had built up
a nose for man, Coulter besought the
BELLEVUE doctors to try the same expert
ment on him. His entreaties prevailed
and last November preparations began by
freezing the middle finger of the left hand,
removing its nail and destroying its
matrix with nitric acid so that no nail
would grow again. Two flaps were raised
from the surface of this nailess finger

influence of ananesthetic,a and were stitched
to flaps raised from the face, the end of the
finger being placed in pocket made in
the skin where the nose had been. The
whole was then kept in place by plaster of
Paris bandages, the patient being also kept
under the influence of morphine. The
eXtemporized nose is already knitting into
place, and the digital arteries having been
tied up, the finger is to be amputated at
the joint, and the wonderful new nose
will be complete.

OUR lIoME.-"Let us understand"
says Emerson, "that a house should bear
witness in all its economy that human
culture is the end to which it is built and
garnished. 1t stands free under tho sun
and moon, and to ends analogous and not
less noble than theirs. 1t is not for festv-
ity, is is not for sleep; but the pine and
the oak shall gladly descend from the
mountain to uphold the roof of men as
faithful and necessary as themselves; to
be the shelter always open to good and
true persons-a hall which shines with
sincerity, brows ever tranquil, and n
demeanor impossible to dsconcert; whose
inmates know what they want; who do
not ask your house how theirs should be
kept"
The house is the staple which fastens us
to the world. 1t expresses the first step
the unit of social organization. 1t is the
place where we take off our masks and
disgulses, and seem almost nakedly what
we are. 1t is the retreat where we shut
in friendship and love. We shall build it
better some day, and gain more just
conception of its sacred relations, its mo
bility and human character, its sympathy
with the soil and its finer uses. Even now
we may say Changing the coupet by q
single word):

As the best gem upon her zone"

NEWSPAPERS AND THEIR READERS.-
There are poor people who are loyal sub
scribers, and who would not miss their
paper more than they would their break
fast, who feel no interest in the political
or general news, but care only for the ma
rine intelligence. We have heard young
man remark that he saw no use in news
papers at all, he felt no interest in them
except in the marriages and deaths, and IL
card with these would be all that he should
ask for, and vet he bitterly complained
that the carrier missed him one morning.
One old lady complains that there are not
enough love stories in her paper; one
reads only the items, and another calls
these sawdust, and the longer accounts of
events. One man never reads an editorial
article, and another gathers all his notions
of political and social events from the
editorial discussion of these. In news
paper, great or small. very widely
varied taste has to be considered, and in
pleasing the public the journalists can
hardly hope to please any individual.
There is n general tendency to criticise
the truthfulness and the morality of news
papers. If story is doubtful, it is a
g newspaper lie," and yet there is no re-
spectacle journal which is not more cure
full in its statements of facts, than men of
honor or honesty are in their ordinary
conversation. The responsibility of pub
licity is great restraint and the account
one gets in the newspaper is generally
more truthful than that of an ordinary
eyewitness, and sometimes than the facts
arrived ut in ceurt of law. The papers

A HINT TO CHURCH SEXToNs.-A gen
tleman while attending church one even
ing found that his feet were icy cold, so
that he raised them off the floor. Calling
the attention OF the sexton to the fact, the
latter said with some perplexity: " Yes,
we have Il good many complaints of cold
feet from others; but | can't understand
the reasen why we can't keep the church
warm; we surely have fires enough" So
saying he pointed to u register in the floor
Just behind the gentleman in the adjoining

see that there was hot fire in the furnace
beneath, and yet no heat came up. When
Il handkerchief was laid over the register

then, can you expect the air to come in

was no response-the man was nonplussed.
" Did you ever try to blow into bottle?"
continued the inquirer. " No sir" =" Did
you think if you did, that you could force
any more air into a bottle by blowing
than was in it before?" He couldn't say.

tinued the gentleman, "you would soon
find if you tried that it WAS impossible,
and neither can you force air into this
church through register if you don't
open a window or some other orilice." :"
But the sexton dcmurred. Opening Il
window would let in cold air, wouldn't
it?" You just try it, was the response: ::
"raise some of the windows on the lee
ward side of the church, and see what will
happen" 1t was done and instantly the
handkerchief lying on the register rose
half way to the ceiling with the force of
the ascending current. The sexton stood
and stared in aslonishment " Now what

BISMARCK's SLEEPLEsSNESs.- won
der that Bismarck is suffering from what
medical books call insomnia or sleepless-
ness. He unbosomed himself rather freely
to Pennsylvania Kelly, when that worthy
interviewed him not long since on the
subject of finance. The silence that
follows midnight is" he SAYS "terribe.
1t wakens all the evil spirits of my mind
they lead me into phantasies, and to
escape them | get up and walk or read
and write" In fact. he is anxious for the
dawn, because he can only fall asleep
after its din and tumult commences.
When in the country at Varzin, the noise
of great freight train passing his resi-
dence in the night time exerts II soporitic
influence upon his overweight nervous
system. Doubtless it is not wonderful
that such parsonage as Bismarck. who
has ridden the whirlwind and directed the
Storm of events in Europe for the last ten
OF fifteen years, should have become hag-
gard and incapable of sleep mt regular
lleurS. Insomnia and other nervous
affections are the prevailing diseases of
the fast time, in which we are living, when
everything is rapid and we are whirled
with velocity in the midst of vortex as
vast as it is incessant. Bismarck's sleep
lessness ha san historic parallel. The Ro-
man emperor Caligla suffered from the
slme aflllction. But above ALL" says his
bographrr, he was tormented with
nervous irritation by slceplessness; for he
enjoyed not more than three hours of
nocturnal reposc; nor these even in pure,

he beheld the sea in the fOrm of II person

and from his inability to sleep. and from

himself on couch. sometimes wandering
along the vast corridors watching for the
earliest dawn and continually invoking

substances, and suggest methods Whereby

There are two or three volatile liquids
used in families that are particularly dam
gerous, and must be employed, if Mt all,
with special care. Bcnznc, ether, and
strong ammonia constitute this class of
agents. The two first named liquids are
employed in cleaning gloves and other
wearing apparel, and removing oil stains
from carpets, curtains, etc. The liquids
are highly volatile, and flash into vapor

them is removed. Their vapors are very

The vast influx of gold into our country
will lead thoughtful Americans 10 glance
ut II page of history not yet ten years old,
and therein to find a suggestion and
II lesson. The five billions extracted
from vanquished France by victorious
Germany was poured into Berlin by the
cartoad. That gold was the price of
blood; ours the price of food. The Ger
mans earned their foreign gold by putting
men to death; we have earned ours by
enabling them to live. But whatever the
source of the wealth the financial condi-
tions are the same. In the case Of Ger
many the result was the strange fact that
the receivers grew poorer and poorer
every day. While the victimized debtors
grew richer and richer, and now are the
most prosperous people in Europe. Money
turned the stolid heads of the Germans;
the loss of it steadied the heads of the
French, and stimulated them to achieve
the gigantic task of recuperation.
