CHILDREN'S TOYS.

A Man Who Has Made q Small Fortune by
Manufacturing and Selling Nothing
Else.
A reporter who was strolling up
Second avenue a few evenings ago
had his attention drawn to a number
of children in front of a small store.
They were eagerly scrutinizing and
admiring a number of many-colored
wooden and rubber balls in the win
dow. The writer, upon entering,
found a multitudinouS assortment of
children's TOYS. The salesman and
proprietor, all in one, was asked which
assortment of toys pleased the little
ones most and met with the greatest
demand, and replied with as much seri-
business as man who did million
dollars worth of business in year:
That all depends on the season Of
the year. my friend. Just now the
bouncing ball is in season. What is a
bouncing ball?" repeated the man,
with apparent amazement at the report
er's ignorance of children's playthings.
why, here it is. Let me show yoUi
how it is worked, for l guess the little
thing was not in vogue when you were
young"
The vender of the so-called bounc-
ing ball, which had an indja-rubber
string attached TO it, bounced it in all
directions, catching it scientifically in
his hand as it bounced back At the
end OF the string was small loop,
through which the operators finger is
inserted, thus leaving the hand in a
position to be open so as to receive the
ball.
do you sell many of these toys?"
was asked.
Thousands, came the prompt re-
ply. They are cheap, and besides
easily lost. Then again we have the
India-rubber bali, which is most sought
after because it is not SO liable TO
smash windows or looking-glasses. The
wooden bouncing ball, a. you can see,
is very hard substance, and sometimes
gives the youngsters hard knock. I've
seen MANY of them with pretty good
aumps on their faces from their efforts
TO catch the ball as it rebounds"
How do the prices ranges"
''All the way from one to fifteen
cents. Come around here any day,
Sunday particularly, and you will see a
stream of children going and coming
from here that would do your heart
good"
You seem to be making a good liv-
ing" was remarked.

REPAIRING INJURIES.

fncideats Showing How Nature Reprodpces
Parts Which Have Been Destroyed.
We see this in the production of sd.
nirably formed joints in parts which
were at first devoid of anything of the
kind. / may quote, as an example,
the case of railway guard, whose arm
had been so injured that he hsd been
compelled to have the elbow with its
Joint cut out, but who afterward de-
veloped a new joint almost as good as
the Old one. In the uniniured condi-
ton the outer bone of the lower arm
surfaced cup, which plays against part
of the lower end of the bone of the up
per arm. or humerus, while its side also
PLAYS against the side of the other bone
of the lower arm, the ulna, with the
interposition of a cartilaginous surface.
The radius and ulna are united TO the
humerus by dense and strong mem
branes or hgamentS, which pass be-
tween it and them anteriorly, poster
forlt and on each side, and are attached
10 projecting processes, one on each
side of the humeruS. Such was the
condition of the parts which were re-
moved By the surgeon. Nine years
after the operation the patient died, and
MIR. Syme had the opportunity of dis
secting the arm, which in the meantime
had served the poor man perfectly
well, he having been in the habit
or swinging himself by it from one
carriage to another while the train was
in motion, quite as easily and securely
as. with the other arm. On eXamina-
ton Mr.. Syme found that the ampu-
tated end of the radius had formed a
fresh polished surface, and played both
on the humerus and the ulna, a mate
rial something like cartilage being in
terposed. The ends of the bones Of
the forearm were locked in by two
processes projecting downward from
the humerus, and also strong lateral
and still stronger anterior and posterior
ligaments again bound them fast to the
last-named bone. 1t would be easy to
bring forward a number of more or less
similar cases. The amount of repro
duction of lost parts which may take
place in many of the lower animals is
astonishing. Thus the tails of lizards,
if broken Off. will grow again, and the
limbs of nevis will be reproduced,
with their bones, muscles, blood yes
sek and nerves. Even the eye and the
lower jaw have been seen to be repro
duced in the last-named animals. IL
certain worms be cut in two, each half
will become perfect animal, the head
producing a new tail and the tail new
head; and worm called aedis has
been cut into as many as twenty-five
parts with like result. But the most
remarkable animal for its power of re-
pairing injuries is the fresh-water hy-
dra, almost any fragment of which
viii. under favorable circumstances,
grow into a new and entire fresh ami
NAL. 1t is also a notorious and very
noteworthy fact that. in both man and
the lower animals, the processes of re-
pair take place the more readily the
younger the age of the injured individ-
ual may be.-St. George Nirart, tn
