Mans Natural Tongue.

A few years ago a society Of emf
nent men in Paris discussed the ques-
ton: What language would child
naturally speak il never taught2 The
devout Cothoics were of the opinion
that the Hebrew language would be
spoken In these circumstances.
Scientists were Of opinion that some
from OF Chinese language would be
the natural tongue. Twenty different
results were predicated. AT last il was
decided To test the matter, and "A COM
mittee WAS appointed to carry ont the
experiment.. Two infants were pro-
cured and put in the charge OF a
deaf and dumb woman who lived in
the Alps and made a living by rear
ing chickens and tending sheep.
The woman was given strict njnnc-
tions to allow no one to speak to these
children, and as her cottage was some
miles distant from any neighbor, the
circumstances surrounding the expe-
riment were favorable.
Years rolled on and many OF the
members OF the society had lost sight
OF this interesting experiment. Some
members OF the committee died, ana
there was great danger of the results
of this wonderful test being lost to the
world. Fortunately two of the mem
bers of The committee kept faithful
watch on the case, and when the
children were six years old brought
them, with their nurse, into meet
ing of the "savants." Every MEM
Der was on the tiptoe OF expectation
as TO the result. Not one word could
either of the children utter; their only
form OF language was IA wonderful
good imitation of the growing OF n
cock, of hen or the bleeting of a
sheep. The prediction of science was
totally upset by a practical expert
ment.

A CHILD TUMOR.
A Strange and Wonderful Discovery
Made an Chicago.

A Chicago special dispatch of June
10th to the New York Sun relates the
following strange and almost incred-
lble case Mrs. L. j. Putnam OF 467
Sale Avenue, who underwent a sur
glcal operation on Monday for the
removal of a supposed tumor from
the abdomen, from which she had
suffered for IL years, but which, when
removed, proved to he u fully formed
and well-developed child, died at
IL 80 o'clock last night.
The case is without parallel In
medical records. Mrs. Putnam was
over 90 years of ago and her husband
has been dead nine years. Four
years previous 10 his death. after
exposure in q rain storm, she was
taken sick, and an enlargement,
which was pronounced tumor, began
TO form in the abdomen.
After consulting various Chicago
physicians, who failed to do anything
to relieve her sutierings, she sent for
a leading physician in 81. Louis, who
told her that 1t would be i'm mpDssible
TO remove the tumor except at the
cost OF her life. He advised her to go
TO ST. Louis and place herself under
his treatment. She did so In the Fall
of 1882, and remained under his care
for several months, but received no
benefit. These commissions increased
until she bad as many as six day.
They came on without warming,
oftentimes while she was in the street,
lasting from five minutes to over AN
hour. but with no pain.
Ddring the thirteen years that she
suffered from this supposed tumor
she has been under the cnntant treat
nent Of the best physicians In Chi
cago, they all believing that the tu-
NOR could be absorbed and would
eventually disappear. About Il month
ago she consulted DIR. j. IL. McFalrich,
vino told her that medicine ~onld not
help her, and thai nothing would save
her except surgical operation, anu
that would probably XIII her.
After several more attempts TO get
relief from medicine, Mrs. PHtnam
decided To allow the operation 10 lie
performed. Accordingly on Monday
HioTnibS Dfs. meT atTlcpi Miieph Jay
and A. l.. Clarke mel at her residence
To perform the operation. After an
effecting parting with her family and
friends, she prepared for the ordeal.
She WAS put under the influence of
ether and an incision was made in
the abdomen, when, instead of tu-
NOR, the operation drew out child,
which WAS alive and in good health.
The patient regained CONSCIOUSNESS
aud there was hope OF recovery, but
last evening she suddenly became
unconscious. DR.. McFatrich was sum
moned anu administered restoratives,
but she did not regain consciousness,
and died at II 80 o'clock. Death was
caused by shock.
