"A remarkable surgical operation
is described by the Manchester en-
gland) Guardian: A small tumor was
removed from an important nerve in a
patients arm. and during the opera
ton some of the nerve itself was taken
away. This was naturally followed by
loss of sensation in the part of the skin
to which the nerve was distributed.
After forty-eight hours the surgeon.
having obtained a piece of healthy
nerve from leg which had just been
amputated, proceeded to restore the
continuity of his patients nerve with
the borrowed piece of tissue. The re-
suit was that sensation returned in
thirty-six hours and there was every
prospect of a complete recovery.

GERMAN ETIQUETTE.
Some of the Rules That Americans o
Forever Disregarding.

Some of the Rules That Americans nre
Forever Disregarding.
German etiquette is very minute.
It does not stop with the ordinary
rules for eating, drinking, calling and
receiving. 1t prescribes mazes OF
trivial details which would fill SO many
fat volumes that even the Germans
have not had the courage to write
them. 1t directs a man what to say
just before beginning to drink a glass
of beer and just before finishing it. 1t
tells him the exact words he must use
in insulting a stranger. 1t graduates
nicely the depth of the bows that are
due to the Privy Councillor, the Court
tradesman, the barber and the restaur-
ateur. 1t explains why the clergyman
should bow first to the Herr Baron and
last to the Herr Banker. 1t describes
just how a man must kiss woman's
hand in the drawing-room and just why
he need not give her his seat in a
horse-car. It even prescribes the circle
in which a man may waltz at a ball.
Perhaps the best criterion of the
minuteness of German etiquette is the
little unwritten code on pocket man.
ners. German good form is shocked
by the helter-skelter condition of the
American pocket A well-bred Ger
man never allows his keys and his jack
knife, his small change, his shoe-but-
toner and his cigar-cutter to jingle
about loosely in his trousers-pocket-
A naked cigar protruding from q
waist-coat pocket shocks the modesty
of German good form much more
than a dozen or more of Rubens'
strapping Dutch sgoddesses. The
greatest offense against German pocket
manners is to carry small silver coins
loose in the pocket A German Lieu
tenant may have only half dollar to
his name, but he carries as big purse
as if he owned all the notes of the Inn
perial Reichsbank. In paying for five
cents worth of beer he goes down into
his trousers aud draws out his fiabby
pocket-book with dignity, thanking
Heaven he is mannerly, high-born
Prussian, and not a vulgar tradesman
like the American at his side, who has
just slapped down on the table mess
of gold, silver, keys and manicure ap-
paratus. The small German school
boy is not even allowed to carry his
car fare without purse. The servant
girl, who earns but $40 a year, would
not carry the price of loaf of black
bread through the street in her hand.
Every reputable smoker in Germany
has his ''cigar-etuis." He prepares to
smoke By emptying out all his three
cent cigars on the table before him.
and laying the case aside. Then he
draws a little cigar clipper from an
other case. removes the tip of the least
offensive-looking cigar, and drops the

The quickest way to fatten an old

hay she can eat She should be got

"A craze for taking flowers to
school recently sprung up among chill
dren in Athens, Ga, and eventually
resulted in SO much extra work for the
janitors that an order excluding flowers
from class rooms had to be issued.
IL never go by the calendar or
newspapers" says the best of natural
lists, the hale old farmer. II try seed
corn in the trial pans, have my ground

Young weeds and grass come up
after each rain. No matter how often
the ground may be cultivated there
seems always to be few more seed of
weeds Left and they terminate at i'm
tervals during the season. To destroy
them run the cultivator over the ground
after each rain.
Potatoes Drowned with the roast
beef make an occasional pleasant
change, and this is an especially good
way to prepare new potatoes. Parboil
them for about fifteen minutes in sailed
water, drain and bake until brown and
tender, turning once or twice. They
bake.
Instead of filling bread pans, oat-
meal kettles, and dishes of that kind
with water, that they may soak before
they are washed, an easier way is to
wet them thoroughly, then turn them
upside down on fat surface. In a
little while they can be cleaned easily,
and you have saved yourself the trouble
of carrying water to pour into them,
only to be poured out again and carried
away.

There is no hard-and-fast rule for the
household purse, which applies to
every family-differing circumstances
cause different arrangements; but no
wife should be obliged to ask-per-
haps to beg-for money with which to
meet legitimate expenses. New

For packing away furs and winter
clothing during the summer, Good
Housekeeping advises the purchase of
a number of paste-board boxes, such as
tailors use in delivering clothing, pack
ing the articles in them, and cumming
a strip of wrapping paper around the
edge of the cover so as to leave no
crack. But all clothing should be
thoroughly shaken and aired before

year he sends all these cigar tips to a
charitable institution in his province.
Two years ago the asylums in the little
province of Brunswick received four
hundred marks worth of tobacco in
this wise. After slowing away the
orphans share" of the cigar, the
smoker takes knife from its chamois-
skin bag and finishes the job which the
clipper began. A case containing a
cigarette-holder and leather match
safe are the last articles which the
well-bred German about to smoke adds
to the collection of small bags and
cases On the table before him. OF
course, all this elaborate preparation
to smoke one three-cent cigar strikes
the American tourist as q trifle ridicu-
lous. A German, however, regards it
as indicative of the breeding of the
smoker. He looks upon the rough
and-ready manner in which an Amer
lean carries his cigars, matches and
knife much as an American looks upon
a man who travels without a tooth
brush and night-shirt.
The little code of pocket manners is
enforced just as tyrannically by Ger
man public opinion as other branches
of German etiquette. Americans. who
consider such minute matters all bosh

their more fastidious friends. Like

Dishonorod Drafts,

When the stomach dishonors the drafts
made upon it by the rest of the system, it is
necessarily because its fund of strength is
very low. Toned with Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, it soon begins to pay out vigor in
the shape Of pure, rich blood, containing
the elements of muscle, bone and brain.
AS sequence of the new vigor afforded the
stomach, the bowels perform their func-
tons regularly, and the liver works like
clock work. Malaria has no effect upon a
system thus reinforced.
