Royal and Ministerial Salaries.

London Truth.
In 1871 Sir Charles Dixie stated
that the cost of royalty was excessive,
and he estimsted it at Gl,000, 900 per
aunum. He was not tar wrong, as was
c%onclusively proved when an addition
al grant was asked for Prince leopold
on the occasion Of his marriage. But
1t by no means follows necessarily that
Sir Charles wishes to disestsblish roy
atty because he ID In favor of
partially disendowlng it. In a
country where the prims minister
receives So, 600 per snnum and an
agricultural laborer about 49,. per
week, 1t Is conceivable the sovereign
might bs respected with a yearly in

each of her children might maintain
themselves in perfect comfort on

Charles ii. the post of prime minister

A VERY QUEER PATIENT.
A Man 40 Years Ola Who Has Never
Had Hair or Teeth.

Philadelphia Preis.
A remarkable man, now living In
Lebanon county, Pennsylvania, was
recently exhibited before the Phils.
delphia medical society. Peter Wend.
ling was born forty eight years ago at
Mount Nebo, a little village in Lsban.
on county, nesting at the foot of n
of the Blue mountains, about eighteen
miles from Lebanon. Although near.
ly half a century old he has never had
any teetk-not even the deciduous
teeth of infancy. Neither has he aver
had any distinct growth of hair on the
scalp. He is entirely destitute of the
sense of smell, and almost of that of
taste. In regard 10 the latter
he is barely able to distinguish the diff
ference between the several kinds of
food. Ia the words CT q prominent
physician, she Is just about able to
tell the difference of taste between
cheese and chalk" But the most
wonderful thing about the man, which
has set the pet theories of the ply.
sicisrs of both hemispheres at nausht,
is that his skin Is entirely devoid of
pores. Under the closest scrutiny Of
the microscope it has been impossible
to discover perspiratory glands, with.
out which the doctor, have always con-
tended o man cannot live. The fine
downy hair which is commonly on the
limbs of an ordinary person is entirely
absent In this case, and the skin Ia
perfectly dry and without the slight-
est suspicion of moisture. When
working actively, his body becomes
intensely hot, and the only means OF
a%ssusging this heat is to throw water
over him. What is most peculiar is,
Mr. Vending hes never known o
days sickness, and is In every sense a
healthy
UEABLE TO MAsTICATE FooD.
He is, Of course, on sccount of the
entire absence of teeth, unable to
mssticate food. He cannot even
crunch 1t with his jaws, as the lower
n protrudes 80 that the gums do not
meet. Besides vegetable aud soft
food he can only cat the tenderest q
maat, which, after cutting 1t up very
tue, he makes an attempt TO chew by
pressing 1t with his tongue against the
roof of his mouth, to extract the
juice, and then swallows 1t. He Ia
among the youngest Of twenty.on
children, none of whom possessed any
Of the peouliarities Of their brother.
The parents we're also perfect, but hif
maternal uncle and grandmother, il 1.
said, we're both a singulsrly created
as MIR. Vending. His father wa,
a farmer, and the son followed
this occupation for many years.
When working 1t the fields Il
was always necessary to have
a couple of boys bring water to him,
ss he could not find relief from the ia,
tense heat his body wal subjected tc
by Precipitation, ~ ordinary people do.
The boys threw the water on him,
and his clothes we're continually kept
wet. he v suffered any inconve,
nispce from this, aud never knew
what 1t WAS to have a cold. II finally
became rather expensive to employ
boys to carry water TO the field fol-
HIN, and he concluded to change his
vocation. He then sought employ
msnt In the ore m,nos Of Cornwall
Lebanon county, Hero he was besel
by aaosher~ difficulty. Bis skin being
Omaha daily bee., 1883-02-06

dry and slippery from want of natural
Precipitation, he was unable to get q
firm grip on the pioksx and the other
tools used. This he remedied by
wearing gloves, with which he was
able to WELD his instruments some-
what better.
He soon grew tired of this kind Of
work, however, and about ayear ago,
having learned the trade of making
shoes. he opened o little shoe shop In
Bismarck, a small village about seven
miles south of Lebanon. The small
tools used in oobbling he can easily
manage. While at work in his little
shop he has O. bucket of water stand
ing beside him with which he keeps
his clothing constantly wet. During
the summer when 1t is 30 warm that
he can not sleep, he docs not go into
the cellar, ana lies on the damp ground
until he becomes sufficiently cool,
when he again retires to his couch
and is able to slumber. He
frequently takes this means of cool
ing off. One of his greatest delights
is to give himself q thorough soaking
under the pump. His sedentary oc.
oupation has caused him to have q
.light attack of dyspepsia within the
last few months, as he wan always
used to outdoor labor. Mr.. WeId.
ling has q wife and eight children.
His progeny have none of the defects
OF the father, with the exception that
their teeth are imperfect. One of his
daughters, who is about sixteen years
old, has only ten teeth instead of the
twenty-elght she should possess, and
none of them have a full set. Intellsc-
tually, Mr.. Vending is perfect.
MEDICAL EXAMINATION.
Professor S. fl. Guilford, of the
Philadelphia dental college, has bsen
acquainted with Mr.. Vending some
ten or twelve years. He has spoken
to number of old residents Of Leba-
O county who have known the
strange man since his infancy, and
who corroborGte all the facts of his
peculiar history as related above.
Professor Guilford has for several
years been anxious TO get Mr.. Wend-
ling to come to this city to be pre-.
scented to the students Of the dental
college. As Mr.. Vending is of a re.
firing disposition the professor waa
unable to accomplish his object until
this winter. 1t would have been im-
possible to bring him here in the sum-
mer, as his clothes have to be kept
continually wet during the
hot months, and he would, therefore,
attract too much attention. Mr..
Vending finally consented to come
here and appear at the last mseting of
the Dental college. This waa done,
and the professor, wishing to also e1-
hibit him before the Philadelphia
medical society, made arrangements
with Dr.. VIM Atkinson, who is a trus.
tee Of the society, to that effect. At
the last meeting of the society DIR.
Atkinson presented the queer patient.
The physicians made q close eIsmina-
ton, and were astounded. They all
pronounced tho case as being of the
strangest character, and one unknown
In medical annals. Nj. Vending re-
turned homo a few days ago. While
he was In this city his photograph was
taken and will be published in the
medical papers.

particularly necessltated perfect adher-

it is the former which led to my tecom-
