aOtice to the Public

o..
That the PUBLIC may not be de-
ceived by false statements, [ hereby
give public notice that all present
and current legal demands for the
support Of the various public insti-
buttons, including superintendent
or all other employees as passed by
the old or Zulick Board are, upon
presentation, audited by Auditor
Hughes and have been so audited
since July last, When there is
money in the treasury to the credit
Of the fund against which the war
rant is drawn it is paid in cash;
when there is no money the treas
urer endorses the warrant and it
draws interest from that date, ex-
actly as has been done for two
years past.
The cry that the wheels OF busl-
ness are being blocked, or that
there is any just cause for the de-
probation in Territorial warrants,
is false and done by INSCRIPTIONS
persons for their own vicious ends.
There is no inst reason why Terri
torial warrants should be depreci-
ated. The Territory receives its
funds in January, February and
March and that has always been
the season for redemption of war
rants. The Territory's resources
and ability to pay are better to-day
than they ever were. So again 1
say, do not allow vicious misrepre-
sensations to effect your judgment
as the value of your warrants.
They are as good to-day as they
ever were, and yon will get your
money just as soon as you would
have done had there been no change
of administration.
Respectfully,
LEWIS WoLFLEY,
Governor.

MEDICAL PROGRESS.
An Explanation ut the Marvellous Process
OF skin Drafting.


Of skin Drafting.
When large areas OF skin are de-
stroyed, as happens In the case of
severe burns or extensive injuries. II
Is sometimes months before the sur
face Is again covered with epidermis.
Repair may have gone on till the sur
face Is on "A level with the surrounding
parts, and all that remains Is for the
skin to creep In from the edges: but
this process, especially In persons
weakened by long confinement In bed.
Is very slow. and the constant dis
charge OF matter from the open sur
face causes irritation. as well Us weak
ness.
IL has been known for many years
that flap OF skin might be lifted from
Its place and made 70 adhere in an ad-
Joining spot provided Its connection
with the surrounding skin were not
cut of. But now we can go farther
than this In 1860 French physician
discovered that small bits OF sound
skin might be shipped of and applied
10 the surface OF the sore, and that
under certain conditions they would
adhere and form new centers from
which the process Of healing might 20
on.
In order to have graft take" we'll.
the surface OF the ulcer must be In a
suitable condition. II 1t Is rough. or
discharges too freely. or projects too
far above the surrounding level. there
IL danger that the small bits OF skin
will fall of
The process Ii as follows: The sur
face OF the ulcer. as well as that OF the
sound skin from which the gratis are
to be taken. having been carefully
cleansed with carbolic acid. or other
solution that serves the same purpose.
the bit OF skin Is picked up in small
pair Of forceps or on the point OF q
needle. and Is shipped Of with pair
OF sharp scissors or a small knife.
Only the superficial layer OF skin ID
taken, and II this Is properly done
there Is no bleeding.
The bit OF skin. which Is generally

then placed firmly upon the ulcer,
with the cut side down. aud preferably
about quarter of an inch from the
free border. A line OF gratis may bs
placed Mt equal. distances completely
across the denuded surface. and thus q
bridge Of skin Is soon formed for the
gratis spread and unite. and thus con
vert the original ulcer into two smaller
ones. BY similar process these two
parts may be again divided. and the
process continued till the whole sur
face Is covered.
In few instances larger portions Of
skin have been made 10 grow TO the
liberated surface. but In general the
smaller bits cause repair to go on a,
rapidly. and are more easily applied
and cared for. Youths Companion.
