REPAIRING INJURIES.

- Incidents Showing How Nature Reproduces
Parts Which Have Been Destroyed.
We see this in the production of adj

were at first devoid of anything OF the

had been so injured that he had been

plays against the side of the other bone
OF the lower arm, the ulna, with the
interposition ola cartilaginous surface.
The radius and ulna are united to the |
humerus by dense and strong men,
branes or ligaments. which pass be-
tween it and them anteriorly, poster
iorly and on each side, and are attached
to projecting processes, one on each
side of the humerus. Such was the
condition of the parts which were re-

well, he having been in the habit

fresh polished surface. and played both
on the humerus and the ulna, a mate

the forearm were locked in by two
processes projecting downward from
the humerus, and also strong lateral
and still stronger anterior and posterior

large variety of fancy work made up fol
the occasion-the finest selection ever
brought together by them-and their en-.

with liberal patronage.
Music will be had at the rink each

at which will be served "putter milk and

A Japanese booth will form a unique
and interesting section. The decorations
inside will be appropriate, and the beau
tiful Japanese maidens and matrons will
not be least among the attractions.
An "ice palace" with its glitter of
white and crystal, is on the list, and ice
cream and strawberries will be served
within. Pretty tOboggan suits will adorn
the graceful forms of the young lady at
tendants, and their winning smiles will
be worth more to the young man than
an interest in copper mine.
Each evening there will be march,
and the Goddess of Liberty will head the
procession. We have not been advised
whether or not a gentleman will be al

made known in time for our gallant
