II, reassuring smile. The thin, wasted

Did DR.. Jay think of his own petted

whom life had been one long caress?
and did he feel the contrast between
her and this poor homeless little waif,

Perhaps so. There certainly were
tears in the kind eyes as he tenderly
raised the frail little form in his arms
and pressed her to his breast.
The slender, childish arms were
clasped about his neck, and her lips
met his with a tender, clinging kiss.
For moment her cheek nestled fond

lightly to his forehead, she sank softly
back upon her pillow.
"Will you hold my hand please,

DR.. Jay clasped tho frail little hand
in his broad war;, palm, and with
her beloved ribbon held in the other
hand, Maggie fell asleep.
At the end of half an hour it was

Then glancing down as if searching

A BIT OF RIBBON.

Outside, the keen, sharp winds of q
cold winter day, the particles of snow
and ice cleaning like diamonds in the
bright rays OF the sun, which possessed
no power to melt them. Inside, in
the light, clean ward OF the H-Hos-
pital, warmth and brightness and
comfort; rows OF neat white cots on
either side, and nurses in white caps
and aprons fitting to and fro, in
constant attendance upon the suffer
ers lying there.
At the farther extremity of the long
ward, where the sunshine fell softly
over the white.draped cot, lay "a little
girl of eight years, but SO small, so
frail and delicate, she seemed scarcely
more than half that age. Anaccident
on the street, several weeks before,
had seriously injured her, and as no
one seemed to claim or care for her,
she had been brought to the hospital.
The skill of the ablest physicians
and the constant care of skilled nurses
lad, however, been able to do little
more than to give temporary relief
from the severe pain she constantly
suffered, but her gentleness and pa
thence had won the hearts of all about
her.
To-day she lay quietly mponher cot,
twisting in and out over her slender
fingers strip of bright tinsel paper,
which she now and then held in the
sunlight, turning it to and fro to
catch the lustre upon its shining sur
face. Then, folding itsoftly, she tried
to fashion a tiny bow, but the stiff,
brittle paper parted in her hands, and
fell in shining bits over the white COW
erlet. With a patient sigh, she drop
ped her hands and turned YEARLY up
on her pillow.
DR.. Jay, one of the visiting physi-
clans, was making his morning tour
of the hospital, and had stopped for
moment to watch the child's patient
endeavors to amuse herself. The case
had been one which had interested
him deeply. Poor little Maggie! Her
patience and gentleness had won his
sympathies.
"She seems to have a peculiar love
for everything bright and pretty, the
nurse said, in answer to a low-toned
remark from DR.. Jay. "She will
amuse. herself for hours with some bit
of paper or string"
"You should petition for a supply Of
DOLLS" was the doctors humorous re-
joiner. II think in this case they
would be more beneficial than medi-
cine" and with a smile and q pleas
ant word to the child, and a few d.
rectlons to the nurse, he passed on.
The next day in making his morning
round of calls, he was delayed a few
moments by q passing procession.
His carriage had stopped just in front
of the windows of q millinery store,
and a piece of bright, brocaded ribbon
caught his eye. In an instant there
rose before him the pale face of his
little hospital patient and her piece
OF tinsel paper, and the next moment
he had put q fve-dollar bill in the

CHICAGO, Dec. ia special from Gin
cinnati says: One of the rarest and
most dangerous operations IN the scope
Oh surgery has been lately performed at
the CINCINNATI hospital. II contested in re-
moving about three inches Of the back
bone and exposing the spiual cord. The
patient was a young colored man about
~ years old.
When first admitted to the hospital he
was suffering from terrible disease
which had broken out over the head, neck
and back in the form Of large abcesses.
The chief one of which was about the
middle OF the back and had eaten away
the backbone to considerably extent,
the poor fellow could not lie in a recum-
bent position nor on his side in conse
quence OF the extreme pain attending suoh
position and was compelled TO lie all
the while on his face.
Slowly he had lost the power of motion
and of sensation in his legs 80 that he
was completely parHly zed from the body
down. IL was decided that his
only chance Of life lay in an
operation for the removal of part
of the backbone BID IA to stop tho
process Of decay He was then turned
on his face and the surgeon made an in
cision down the spine. A large quantity
of pus was revealed, and the cavity WIS
sponged out carefully in order to see just
where the knife was going. In this
region where one slip of the knife
or one false move would have been fatal
to the patient, the surgeon with chisel
and hammer went down on the bone until
he cut out all that which was in any way
affected, never touching the spinal cord.
All causes of suppuration and paralysis
were removed and the surgeon felt as
sured power would return to the par
| alyzed legs, and that time would accom-
| plish the healing up Of the place whert
the bone had formerly been.
The patient recovered from the ethei
and was placed in bed ON his face. Ii
three days, motion returned to the leg
and he was able to move his feet for the
first time in nearly year. About th'
same time sensation began TO return il
the limbs. In about three weeks he Dor,
some weight on his legs and about til,
same time he assumed the position on hi
breast and knees which he hal
kept ever since. He at length
became strong enough TO stand with as
sistance and take step or two. He il
now able to walk to the end of the ware
and sit down in chair with comfort. o
course his back is yet weak and probabl,
never will regain its former power, but HI
will be useful man. The wound ha
gradually closed up, leaving only Sigh
scar, and causes him little or no pain.
