Limbs of Wood and Rubber.

The prices charged for artificial limbs are
800 per leg, $50 to S75 per arm and $50 per
| foot, with all the latest improvements. The
business is said to be steadily growing. At
one time it was thought by the now leading
maker that if he could manage to sell one
limb per day it would be good business
But last year this factory put out an average
of three per day, or nearly 1000 in the year
A great many of these were exported, and
| quite a number OF them went to South
America. Every order is made especially to
measure, and guaranteed to fit without see
ing the person. The invention of the rubber
| foot was found of particular advantage, as
the former wooden foot in use had to have
| its joints constantly oiled, or it would creak,
and was otherwise liable to get out Of order
The rubber also imparts a more natural
elasticity and firmness
Excepting the rubber e1tremities, the
limbs are generally made of willow wood.
OF coarse they will wear out, but with care q
good leg, it is said, will last twenty-five
years. Il IS elsiusd by the manufacturers

Don't you know-don't you remember all

So Ethel Joined the party of fifteen or
twenty armed men who rode out that night
for the purpose of capturing, if possible, Kan
sas and his desperadoes. They rode in as
wide line as the valley would permit, so
that no company of horsemen might pass
them unnoticed, and this plan proved good
one. About 10 o'clock at night they espied
four horsemen, evidently awaiting the coach,
and closed in upon them. Zeke insisted on
keeping Ethel Winship back, and made her
promise to stay with him if the boys could
effect quick capture. But, no; the outlaws
knew that certain death awaited them should
they be captured, and resolved to fight dearly
for their lives There was a sharp, quick
interchange of pistol shots. Three of the
robbers and three of their pursuers fell from
their saddles The fourth desperate put
spurs to his horse and dashed right through
the crowd of miners, who, i'll their surprise at
his action, allowed him to pass. The desper-
ate man emptied all the charges Of his re-
volver behind him as he galloped, threw the
pistol down and drew another from his belt.
He rode in the direction of Ethel and Zeke.
and they could see that he was magnificent
man, with long black hair and a black mus
tache.
''Kansasl" muttered Zeke.
Ethel no sooner heard that detested name
than she leveled a revolver at the man rid

and a sure eye to hit such a mark; but she
did it, Click-bang-an bullet logded in
the brain of the highwayman. A dozen men
rode up and Lifted the man. He was dead
They laid him back on the ground, and one
of the men, more curious than the rest, pro-
ceeded to examine the wound in his temple
To do so, he brushed back the long black
hair, and discovered that it was false. Then
he looked closely at the heavy mustache,
that also was false; so he pulled both wig
and mustache from the dead man. As he
did so, a long and piercing scream rent tho
air, and Ethel Winship threw herself upon
the corpse of the highwayman.

sought their hospitality, but also from con-
tact with the Chinese and Japanese. Within
the last few years, however, their reserve has
shown signs Of thawing, and we are at last
able to form some opinion as to the reason Of
their shyness, and to judge whether a closer
acquaintance will reveal anything worth
knowing. As to the first point, this shyness
seems constitutional There is q limit to it i;
for, like most shy people, the Coreans are
not injurious.
A Dutch craft was wrecked near the coast
of Corea in the latter half of the Seventeenth
century, and the sailors, whose narrative may
be read in several books Of old travel, found
themselves the object of much inquisitive OBJ
seryation. Even the women and children
were eager to see the outlsndish navigators
more especially as the Dutchmen were re-
puted to be of a monstrous race who, when
they drank, were Obliged to twist their long
noses round their ears. No such report her
aided the journey which Mr. Carries made
into the interior, yet he was received with
polite attention and interest everywhere.
"The more l have seen," he says, ''of the
Coreans, the more fully have l appreciated
their politeness toward their guests and the
dignity of their behavior" But he saw next
to nothing of the women of the country, by
whom he was carefully avoided Even some
little girls whom he found swinging in a field
fled at his first approach. His inability to
tell us about the women of Corea is especi-
ally to be regretted ON account of the strange
position they hold.
The secluSon of women in this land Of the
shamefaced is carried to the utmost limit.
Ladies out of doors wear a green mantle
which covers the whole countenance except
the eyes. Nor do they willingly let even
their eyes be seen. 1T seemed odd," says
Mr. Carries, ''that each woman we met should
have arrived at that moment at her home;
But, as we learned later on, women have a
right of entree everywhere, and to avoid us
they turned into the nearest house at hand. "
Other travellers recount that the women are
taught to shun the opposite sex from their
earliest girlhood. They are even exhorted
70 talk as little as may be to their own
husbands. What is still more extraordinary
is the innate modesty of the men. This senti-
ment impels them to work in jacket and
trousers in the hottest weather; while the
richer classes use a kind of bamboo frame
work to keep the clothes, otherwise unbear-
able, from contact with the skin. When an
Italian prince visited Corea, few years ago,
officials were sent to his snip to protest against
the indecency of the Italian sailors, which
for some days had prevented the villagers
from leaving their houses The sailors had
been bathing.-St. James Budget.
