Everybody a slsin-Rreather.

A scientific gentleman of Buenos
Ayres, Nj. CODES, has discovered that
all living animals breath through their
skins as well as through their lungs.
Hypodermic injections of oxygen into
their skins are taken up by the capil-
laries of the system in the same manner
as when oxygen is breathed through
the lungs. The practical part of the
discovery is that M. CODES thinks the
hypodermic respiration will become of
great use in lung diseases.
The Lazy Mans Pipe.
The most curious pipe of the year is
the lazy mans pipe. As its name ex.
presses, this is a pipe requiring the
minimum of exertion to use it. Natur
ally, it is of a somewhat complicated
design, consisting of tube to hold the
tobacco, and n stem running crosswise
of this for the mouth. The pipe is hello
by passing the two first fingers of the
hand through two rings, one on either
side of the bowl stem, and the mouth
piece being placed in the mouth, the
pressure of small valve that lies just
under the thumb sets the ingenious
mechanism inside to work, and the
smoke is forced automatically into the
mouth,
