GRAPHING A NOSE,
A Novel Surgical Operation i'm New
 York Hospital.

A young man in Bellevue hospital,
 New York, is undergoing treatment for
 grating his middle left hand finger to
 the spot where his nose used to be, with
 the intention of eventually amputating the finger and transforming it into nose. He lays in the new surgical ward
 with his hand immovably fixed to his face. Over his face is cap of plaster of paris. He breathes heavily and in quick, short gasps. Five years ago he was admitted to the place suffering from
 lupus. He was quie', intelligent and sanguine. The lower eyelids of the face had been drawn down by the disorder, and several painful surgical operations were performed upon both to correct this and other abnormal conditions of his face and head. Ail these he bore with stoical indifference. After some time, with skillful surgical treatment, the germ of the disease was entirely eradicated. He quilted the hospital, but soon returned and asked for employ ment. Within the hospital walls every one knew and liked him, and nobody apparently noticed his disfgured face Without it was different. He found himself continually the object of idle curiosity and insulting comment Tommy" the only name by which he is known in the hospital, was given the position of runner and servant to the young physicians. He was much elated at finding himself finally rid of the dis order to which, from youth up, he had been subject. Such, too, was his faith in the skill of the visiting surgeon that he besought him daily to make him a new nose to replace the organ that the disease had consumed. So earnest were his entreaties. and such his vigor and endurance, that it was determined to perform an operation upon him. Tommy's" cot is the first one on the side of the new ward as one enters. Unlike those of the other pa tients, it is almost entirely screened from view. About the walls are pie lures and engravings. "Tommy's" temperature and pulse are watched with the greatest anxiety by the attendants. The trim, lady-like nurses, with white aprons and Normandy caps, regard the poor fellow with the greatest solicitude. 1.-the series of operations that Tommy" must finally undergo result success fully-that is to say, leave him we'll formed nose structure-it will be the only one on record.

Origin of Often.Used Phrases.

Even some of the slang" "phrases of the day have legitimate origin. $ Put. ting your foot in it," is certainly not q very elegant mode of expression, but ac- cording to the '' ''Asiatic Researches" 1t is quite a fine point of law; when the title to land is disputed in Hindostan, two holes a,e dug in the ground and used to encase limb of each lawyer CD, and the one who tired first lost his clients case. Fancy, if you can, some of our famous climbs of the law !" pleading in such manner! It is gen eraliy the "client who ''puts his foot in it."
 When things are in disorder they are often said to be turned topsy-turvy; this expression is derived from the way in which turf used for fuel is placed to dry, the turt being turned downward; and the expression then means top-side turfway.

4 Bonanza King on Paris Beats,

MT. Mackay, the horny-handed miner, who is endeayoring to pull through the present hard winter on an income of about $l5,000 day, came up to us be- hind the scenes at the Bush Street theater, the other evening, and gave us the following little personal reminis- cence, which he assured us, with tears in his eyes, had never been printed:
 We had been speaking of mining men, and MT. Mackay said: Talking of beats, my boy, those in this country don't compare in skill or audacity with the Parisian variety. The first time I visited that city my coming was men, toned in the French papers, and also the fact that my apartments had been engaged at the Hotel Anglais. (Mr. Mackay speaks French like a guide book-that is, the same kind) When I arrived at the station was, therefore, not surprised to have fine looking man walk up, ask my name, and request me to be seated in carriage ready to be driven to the hotel. This person saw to my baggage, rode upon the box, and es- corted me to the hotel register, which I signed, my conductor in the meantime carefully holding a plotting pad over the name of the hotel at the top the page. When turned away he said:
 ''' I trust, Mir. Mackay, you will find the Hotel Grande to your liking
 "'But I don't wish to stop here,' l said, much annoyed. It is the Hotel Anglais at which am expected.'
 "'Is it possible2' said the stranger. A thousand pardors. I was not aware that you had preference. How stupid of me- and, quickly recalling the coupe, he transferred myself and effects to my proper destination"
 Where, upon examination, you dis covered your trunk had been rifled by his accomplice, the driver?" we said, in the hope of heading him of, for Mac is terribly long g-winded, as we all know.
 Nothing of the kind, smarty," con- tinued Mackay, who was beginning to get irritated by our persistent yawning. "The baggage was all right, but six months after that I received from the pronrietor nf the Hotel Grande the most terrific bili1or i've months board, wines and extras that you ever saw. You see the rascal had gone back to that hotel, passed himself off for me and lived there after on the fat of the thanksgiving wine parties every night. Whenever the bill would be sent in he would put it off on some excuse or other, until suspicious were excited, when the landlord sent the register around to the Nevada banks Paris agency and had my signature identified. That made matters all right again until the fellow left, when he actually had the gall to direct that the bill be sent to my address over here for collection. Now, what do you think of that?'
 And the wing against which we were dozing sliding back just then, we picked ourselves up again and said, ''Strangest thing ever heard !"-iSua FTa2cGsco Post.

The Healthiest City in the United
 States.

In the annual tables of vital statistics, lately published by the health depart ment of New York city, among the ex- hibits is the comparative death rate of various cities, American and foreign The exhibit gives the population and death rate of over three hundred and fifty cities in different parts of the world, of which sixty are American and the remainder foreign.
 It appears from these tables that the city of Burlington. Iowa, with popu- lation in 1875 of about %. 900, enjoys the pre-eminence for health, its annual death. rate being only ASA deaths per 1000 souls. Stockton, Cal, stands next, TAI; but this is ninety-two per cent. more unhealthy than Burlington. There are probably few, but only few. more favored places than the latter in ali the world. The death rate for New York city is 23.93 per 1000; New Or leans, 50.7I; London, g 10; Paris es-s -.Scientifc Aaeriodn.

Waifing.

The golden feet ot the sunbeams
 Are lettering at the door; The woodbine's restless shadow
 Is dancing on the floor. The long, long day is waning
 The hour is almost three Oh, tagging moments, hasten, That brings my love to me, That clock upon the mantel-
 A pretty French conceit; A winged sylph, with arms upwreathed, And airy tripping feet The clock, with silvery tick-tack, tells The moments ceaselessly; But, oh, how lags the magic hour That brings my love to me! The sunshine's golden footprints Across the threshold fall; The woodbine's restless shadow Has fitted to the wall. Oh, dear! An age behind the sun That tiresome clock must be! Still ninety seconds to the hour That brings my love to me. I count the tinkling footballs Of the moments gliding by; At last-at last a tender flush Of pink is in the sky The sunsets rosy glamor floods The air, the earth, the sea; And, hark, the clock chimes out the hour That brings my love to me!

 It was now nearly eight o'clock at night, and we were thankful that we could make our escape; but our troubles were not yet over. We got blocked in the crowd in the entry passage, ano, to my horror, found myself damned be- tween three or four of these bleeding creatures, who were tying towels round their heads, and looking wildly and un- comfortably about. They were scat tered thick all through the crowd. In the last batch there were about two hundred, and it seemed as ii one was going to be haunted by them forever As drove home registered solemn resolution that nothing should ever in- duce me again to go and see the celebra- tion of the Martyrdorn of Hussein.

A table furnished by the RdilrOad
 Gazette of the number of miles Of -rc.il- roads built east and west of the Missis- sippi during the last eight years is very interesting. From it, it appears tat in the construction ofthese great highways of travel and commerce the western portion of the country has gained enor- mously over the eastern portion. In 1872, 1853 miles of railroad were made east of the Mississippi and west of it 2,987 miles. In 1879 only l,2i3 miles were made in the tirst-named region and 3,l87 in the latter. The teeming far West is being rapidly furnished with facilities for the transportation Ci its products to the Atlantic seabOard. The prospects for railroad construction in the present year, says the New York G1dptjc, are excellent. Ii is now much more costly to build roads than it was year ago, all kinds of materials having advanced in price, but the returns are large ana reasonably certain and the in- crease in cost will hardly prevent the established railroads from being eX- tended. Indeed, the danger is that there will be too much enterprise and activity in that direction rather than too little.

Mir. Edgar Gilkes, one of the con. structors of the Tay bridge. has given his theory of the cause of the awful dis aster. He holds that "thc present evil dence indicates that some other force than the tempest acting with it destroyed the girders," and he believes that that force was the momentum of the train. Mir. Gilkes finds that the force of the w ind as actually registered at Dundee was sufficient to overturn a train, and that the guard rails could not prevent this, and further, that, if the upper parts of the carriages were thus brought in contact with the leeward girders, the damage they would cause would so far destroy the unity of the fabric that the same wind would cast it down alto gether.

In recent lecture on $ Eclipse Prob lems," Professor Young, of Princeton. said, with reference to the observed in- creasein the rapidity of the moons mo- tion, that the discoverer jed at first to the opinion that the moons orbit was growing shorter, and that ultimately the moon would come down upon us. More accurate calculation. however, shows that there is no danger of so dis astrous aresult. The moon is not com- Ing nearer, but our day is growing longer, owing to the friction ofthe tides upon the earth's surface. The tides act like brake, and slowly diminish the speed of the earth's rotation.
