have in the jeweler shops silver and gold
shields for the protection of such nails. These
are silver cones, several inches long. which fit
the finger like thimble, and which, by the
way, many of the foreign ladies who come to
China buy for breastpins. They have a pin
fastened to the fnger-nail shield, and use it is
a brooch. 1t is rather pretty curio, but the
associations are disgusting.

This may occupy from two to five hours. Al
cohol is then injected so as to abstract as much
water as possible. This occupies about quarter
of an hour. Ether is then injected to abstract
the fatty matter. This occupies from two to
ten hours. strong solution of tannin is then
injected. This occupies for inhibition from
two to 10 hours. The body is then dried in a
current of warm air which passes over heated
chloride of calcium. This may occupy two to
five hours. The body is then perfectly pre-.
served, and resists decay. The Italians exhib-
it specimens which are as hard as stone, retain
the shape perfectly, and are equal to the best
wax models. 1t will be observed in this proc
ess that those substances most prone to decay
are removed, and the remaining portions are
converted by the tannin into substance resem-

our attention was called to a communication
which appeared In your paper of Jan. 81 last,
from A. j. Farmer, who represented that he
was the Adjutant General of this Society. He
was removed from that Office for incompe-
tency some time ago, and Fred r. Mcres was
appointed in his place and stead. At the same
time Ii. w. Spooner was suspended as National
Treasurer, or, as we term it, Quartermaster-
General for neglecing to give security as re-
quired by our Rules and Regulations Corn
rade Butts is not and never has been suspended
as COmmander-in in Chief, and he is guilty of no
dishonorable conduct. lie is the founder of
this Society; has been from the first and is
now the Commander-ip-C Chief, always untiring
in his labors, giving large part of his valuable
time. as busy lawyer, to the Society, and he is
entitled to our gratitude and thanks. This is
but a weak expression OF what is justly due
him for the labor, time and money expended
by him. The United States Mutual Benefit
Association was started from the Society of
Veterans as beneficial branch thereof Since
the Society of Veterans was started, now more
than three years ago, not more than $50 has
been raised for Society expenses, and even this
sum has been raised through the personal efforts
of Comrade Butts, although repeated efforts have
been made to raise more money by others.
In consequence thereof, ana through the efforts
of Comrade Butts, the United States Mutual
have furnished the Society of Veterans with
their badges, ritual, commissions and other
supplies, representing several hundred dollars.
The Society of Veterans owes it present pros
porous condition to the timely aid of Comrade
Butts and the United States Mutual.
By order of the Board of Trustees.
