Medical Advice About Earrings.

There is a custom, Il relic of savage
life, by which the women of our dlv
seek to add attraction to their beauty
the piercing of the lobe of the earand
wearing in the hole some form Of or
nament-an earring. This operation
is performed, as a rule, as soon As the
little miss has arrived Mt the age of ac-
countability and it is RELOCATED to the
hands of artisans-iewelers A piece
Of flesh is punched out of the lobe, SO
that a small canal remains; piece Of
string, a straw, on anything convenient
that will 20 through, covered. per.
haps, by grease or vaseliue, is pushed
into the hole The little girl goes
around for week or two with dirty
string or straw in her ear; the
lobe is swollen and looks ugly, but,
never mind, it will add TO her beau
ty in the end. The wound may be.
come much inhamed, so that an alb
scess Of the lobe may take place, aud
when this is cured the ear may be dis
figured for life. The lobe may De
shrunken in consequence" or the hole
may be too large. This, perhaps. does
not happen frequently, 5ut it never.
theless happens, and the work has to
be repaired, if possible, by the sur
geon. 1t is pity that this operation
cannot be relegat2d to surgery Sur
geous operate daily for cosmetic effects;
why may they not do this? 1t would
be prophylaNi, rather than cure. Some
women will insist upon wearing heavy
pendant earrings. These, by their
weight will enlarge the hole and make
the lobe unsightly. The surgeons
knife has also been required to remedy
this evil These pendant earrings are
apt to catch in drapery. In this way
the lobe may be torn through Such
incidents have been known to happen
It's gratifying To know that pendant
earrings are less frequently worn now
than formerly. The consensus Of
opinion seems to be in favor Of those
that lie close to the ear and do not
hang down 4 silver leaf or a dia-
mond drop set into the pink of wci-
shaped lobe is ching of beatty and
