from Madison, but the boys believe he
was in hurry and walked, as he was

thought he would wait until the biz

himself off as Hon. Telephone Paulson,

A BROOKING EPISODE.


Commercial life has many charm,
But, ah they quickly flee,
When ten-days' Dakota storm
Commercial aspirations scOrn;
Yes soon they cease to be.
The blizzard for time had ceased,
And bright days came again;
The trains soon sped from West to East,
All snow-bound travellers were released,
Likewise commercial men.
Who cheerfully resumed their way,
But were sometimes detained
At Brookings-but, when there you may
Atthe Commercial always stay,
By the Palmers entertained.
They did not heed the chilling blast
Or whirl of binding snow,
When rising from good repast,
Which works change wOndrous and vast
In temperament, you know.
The snow plow was the first that came
Next day to clear the track;
They thought Wed better board the same
And wait no longer for the train,''
But had to go right back.
The snow plow would no further run,
For which they had no use;
But then they had little fun
BY getting off and leaving one
of the boys in the caboose.
You see that he was unaware,
The fact they came to know,
That if they stated much longer there,
The plow would bring them back to where
They did not want to 60.
Then thus they formed pretext sly,
The circumstance to mend:
'Barrows' went to say ''Good-bye''
To Mr. Downing, while ''Mede'' and Clarke
Must something else attend.
But 'sEngle'' had no such affairs
His mind to discompose;
Soon freed from all commercial cares
I1o1,a c1n HI inI,
His eyes did gently close.
When they arrived at the hotel
Their little joke they told;
They thoughtit it might do pretty we'll
To put in verse, and thus to tell
How 'Abe'' was cheaply sold.

pleasure, and are anxions'to to see how he

taken. He is straight from the ''land of

with certain sections of the Northwest.
He is hustler, and when not on duty
for his firm, is wont to gather to himself
his bagpipes and make merry with the

Transplanting n Rabbits Eye.

One of the most delicate and notable surgi-
cal operations performed in the world occur
red in Philadelphia recently, it being the trans
planting of portion of the eye of rabbit
to II human being. The object of the opera.
ton was to relieve the obscurty of the eye
OF the patient, which was caused by inilamma.
ton, and which produced in time an opaque
surface The patient was a servant girl,
whose eyes had become almost totally use
less, SO far as the vision was concerned, by
reason of the whitish coating which made
both of the orbits Opaque, and she was so
nearly blind that objects of considerable size
were barely distinguishablc.
The operation took place at the German
town Hospital, under the immediate direC.
ton of DR.. l.. Webster Cox the ophthalmic
surgeon of the institution, who witnessed
one OF the only two other operations Of this
nature which have been performed in the
world-in Germany last ycar-both perform
cd by Prot. Won Nipple, of Glassen, Germany.
The Professor had first devised and had
manufactured for the purpose very delicate
instrument, which, by means of CloCkwork
attachment, not only bOres into the Cornea
ofthG eye, but also registers the exact depth
ofthe puncturc. In this way very small por-
ton of the cornea is cut from one of the eyes
of rabbit, and piece corresponding in
size is taken from the afflicted eye of the hu-
man patient both being taken from point
directly in front of the pupil. Both the rab-
bit and the patient are first placed under the
influence of the local anwstActic cocaine, and
the rabbits eye was selected by reason of
its similarity to the human eye, and because
it is n distinctly herbacious animal, the blood
ofwhich is less liable to Contaminating in
tlucnces than that of other animals whose
food is composed principally of animal mat
ter.

Tones OF the Voice.

1t is Il curious fact that the tones of civ
iized races are founder and harsher than
those used by the savage tribes Indeed,
among people who are ClassCd rs civilized,
it will commonly be found that the more
highly cultivated, up to n certain point, speak
in the sharper tone. OF course, when cult
.vhtCn aud replacement have reached the point
that the tones Of the voice have become q
matter OF attention and care, the rule no
longer holds, for then low, well modulated
tones are acquired as an accomplishment.
The philosophy of this peculiarly seems
10 he that the same energy and vigor which
give certain races the leadership in advance
mcnt are accompanied by unusual nervous
strain, and we are well aware how plainly
nervousness is indicated in the tones. The
people of New England speak in a sharper
and shriller voice than their cousins in old
England They arc also more intense in
feeling and more eager in action
That this difference is not due to the inilu.
cncc Of climate is apparent upon COmpari
son OF our people with those of the dominion
to the north and cast of us. 1t is only as
climate or other agencies may effect the entire
character of a people that it has anything TO
do with the tones in which they speak. Com
monty, as we approach the tropics, we find
the voice lower and softer; but, then, this is
only in keeping with the whole life of the
people, which shows less of fore and earnest
ness than that of people who inhabit the
temperate zone. ltsuggcsts that they are
too indolcut to raise their voices.
The writer recalls that he has more than
once been asked by persons from Brazil and
from the Spanish countries of South America,
who were new corners among Us, whether
those whom they overheard were really
scoding, for they discovered no petulance
nor i'll feeling except in the tones of the voice.
Such questions are calculated to awaken pro-
titahlc reflections
