A rather sad affair took place on Maiu

her arms full Of bundles emerged from
dry goods store, when one OF them fell on

oenind her was a young man-a Too

is not anything-and be quickly stepped
forward to pick it up. Now a bundle
done up IN piece of paper with a

parently as harmless as maidens prayer
or a mothers spanking, and there it lay as
guileless as a blue.eyed bulldog asleep in the
sun. Just as he stopped to pick it up there

TRADE IN SKELETONS.

HsT F0rt MriI arS Brpress.
Pedestrians on William street have had
their attention called to the window Of a
dealer in surgical instruments the past sew
erAl months By the complete skeleton Of q
human form sitting bolt upright in chair
a. one corner. Close beside It is skull on
winch is the plscard. ALAS! Poor Vortex"
When asked regarding the trade in this
curious kind Of merchandise BY Mail and
Express reporter the dealer said:
"Sell many ofthem1 Yes sir; compare
lively speaking we sell lots Of them, al
though you don't see the article quoted in
the market reports Why, we are usually
twenty-five to forty skeletons and complete
line Of skulls. We sell them to museums,
medical colleges aud physicians.
The price Of skeleton varies from $50
TO $50, according to lis perfection and COM
pleteness- The demand is not so very
large; from 800 to 400 q year is probably
the limit Of the number Of complete skele-
tons sold ia this country. Our sales are
about $50 year.
"A curious feature of the trade is that all
that are sold are imported. They come
from Paris, where a regular business is done
in preparing them for the trade. Nearly all
the skeletons imported to this country come
to this city. Where do they get them? Oh,
from morgues and the many cases Of sat
cides which occur in France
Why cannot they be procured in this
countryP was asked.
There is no establishment Of the kind in
this country that know and the reason
is that our people do not seem to have the
facilities or inclination to 90 into this kind
Of business. Besides, il aecessitstes a costly
outlay and the business here is not Of suff-
cient size to make it pay. A few years ago
a Frenchman did come over here with the
idea of starting the business. He did make
9 start in Philadelphia, but soon had to give
it up after considerable loss. for he couldn't
make it pay.
That skeleton you noticed in the win
dow is from France. II is . defective
one, so we have hal it on exhibition there,
Il attracts no little notice, and the other
day q man came in here and with sympathy
expressed on his face asked where this man
used to i've. We told him it was French
man whose first appearance this side Of the
Atlantic was probably in this manner. The
visitor went away saying that his symps:
thies were quite aroused over the poor
skeleton sitting there in that peaceful posi-.
ton day after day. when he ought to be ly.
ing at rest in his grave"
